    Do you know what Disc Golf lacks?

    Even on courses where the fairways are neat and mowed, sometimes shots you'd expect to skip don't. What's the difference between a shot not skipping on grass when you expect a skip; vs a sand trap? You don't get a skip, so what? You're still lying in the same spot you threw to.

    Finally figured "it" out...

    It will never and and you'll never find this "it" you're speaking of. All you can do is try to throw more shots than anybody else and actually practice, don't just play rounds. I used to overthink things and quantify my form, which got frustrating. When anyone shows up to a big tournament...

    HOD 3/14/2014: Iron Hill in Newark, DE

    Iron Hill is the hardest permanent course in the world btw. The gold pin shown is the 370 position, the longer one isn't used anymore. The play for me is a destroyer or xcal straight at it nice and flat. I could reach it with a teebird or even a mid but it's easier for me to disc up and hug the...

    It's my home course and yes, Iron hill can break people down mentally. If you're having a bad day you are going to struggle. However, if you're on it's the most beautiful disc golf you've ever seen. Not many places where 70-72 will be a 1000 rated round

    Man made obstacles on the course.

    Most of these types of things are inherently contrived even in theory. In practice, usually terribly executed and short-sighted as far as maintenance goes.

    How about this for everyone defending him: it's not worthy of a courtesy violation, and his fits aren't objectively bad, but he is a little b1tch. If what he's doing isn't worthy of a courtesy violation then neither is reallyyyyyy working him. Push all his buttons and send him off the edge...

    how has nobody else mentioned the "they come for us, we don't come for them. We tell them to get lost" comment? It seemed like he was talking about the crowd

    [Innova] FR echo star xcals

    I noticed a lot of love for FR echo excalibers from current and ex innova pro's but have never had a chance to throw one. What's the difference flight wise between current runs? More or less overstable? If they're really that sweet compared to current runs maybe I could justify getting a couple...

    Where does all the am money go in tournments

    Something that should be mentioned...lets say in a C-tier entry costs $50 for pros, $30 advanced, $20 am divisions. Lets say there's a decent field of 20 or so pros...if you come in 3rd you are probably going to get around a $100 "prize". Yet you paid 50 to play, so you really only won $50, but...
