    Putting very well 30’ indoors - how to replicate on-course?

    AFTER you get your form down to a repeatable, fluid, natural motion… The best way that I have found to get better at on-the-course putting is to randomly step up to your practice basket, at random times during day, at a random distance, go through your putting routine, and putt ONCE. Then go...

    Carrying bag or cart: Which is more physically demanding?

    For me, it depends on temperature. I carry a DM Sky bag (20-25 discs) most of the time. It actually helps exercise my back and keeps me loose. When it gets too hot, and the bag gets my back wet, I’ll roll a MVP Rover cart (one of the smaller, lighter carts).

    [Discmania] Discmania Thread (Part II)

    Interested in your thoughts on how the new and old MD5 flights compare. How are they similar and how are they different?

    [Discmania] Discmania Thread (Part II)

    A Link feels the same in the hand to me, but it fades more quickly when it slows down. The Link is more stable. A P1x / Xero will fly straighter longer so I can aim straight at the basket (without having to correct for the fade) almost to edge of circle. The Link has me adjusting my aiming...

    [Innova] Innova Xero

    The Xero is Innova’s release of the DM P1X. I started putting with P1x’s and wanted more of them, but they are getting expensive. Did a little research and found they are the P1x. The Links were too stable and would not hold a putting line for me. They just dump over for me starting around...

    I really need advice about putting form.

    TLDR, so I hope I’m not stepping on anyone… You need 3 things for a consistent putt: First, a simple repeatable motion. Work on that first, and the accuracy will be a result. Frankly, I don’t see anything really wrong with your motion, except #2 and #3 below. Second, keep your head as still as...

    Can't miss courses for my trip

    Charlotte: Mint Hill, very clean very safe park, 9holes, rec friendly, walking trails, my favorite park in Charlotte. Reedy Creek, very old park, so not so long from the regular tees, lock your car. Kilborne, not so long from the regular tees, nice park.

    Old Farts Only 40+ (no kids allowed)

    Nothing against distance, it has some importance… But putting will get you the wins, if that’s what you’re asking. 400’ will allow you to reach a few holes that others cannot, but if you can’t consistently make that edge of circle 1 putt, why bother?

    [Question] Interested in knowing what these are worth if anything

    You could post a pic, with condition, ink (yes/no) and weight to the “What is This Disc Worth?” thread at the top of this sub-forum. It looks like you have some discs that might fetch a little extra, but also looks like there’s a lot of ordinary discs. They can help you separate the diamonds...

    [Innova] Innova Power Disc

    I bought quite a few Power Discs and Fairway Discs in both Star and Champ, and prefer them to the new DM molds.

    [Discmania] Astronaut 12 | 6 | -4 | 1 Understable Distance Driver

    The biggest problem with the Astronaut is that no two seem to be the same. The inconsistency seems to be an issue with all the AP drivers, Astronaut, Majesty and the Mentor, as well as the Genius. Those are the ones I’ve thrown.

    Production C-Line MD1 dropping 4/5/23. I got to throw one and it is the most stable MD1 yet. Already have a few MindBenders and a few 15yrAnniversaries, the production disc was better. Can’t wait!! It will replace my flat, neutral C-MD3 in my bag. Not quite as stable, but more workable and...

    Prodigy sues Gannon sues Prodigy

    GB still needs to prove that he can “move plastic”. PM doesn’t get paid all that money because he’s good, or because he wins. He gets the money because Discraft saw that he caused an increase in their sales. Prodigy probably isn’t the best indicator of his marketability… When GB signs his new...

    Jomez Productions

    Not sure if this has been discussed, TLDR, I suspect that FPO is going to Jomez as an equity consideration, much like FPO getting equal money in the DGPT Championship.

    The new S-Line DD3s (white) that I bought resembled the flight of my least-stable Innova S-DD3. So, less stable like DM said. However, for my noodle arm, I still got more distance with an old S-Line TD or S-CD or S-TDx thrown flat. The new S-Line PD (orange) was a tad more stable than my...
