    Review by DrumPhil65 in course McNish Park

    3.00 star(s) Sunnyside Junior This course is in good condition and is a very nice 9-hole course for a small town. Most shots have either elevation change or trees in play, forcing you to think about your lines. There are no long bomber drives here, so shots are about placement rather than length. Much of the...

    courses on college campuses

    Northwest Missouri State U in Maryville, MO, has an 18-hole course on campus. It mostly goes between and around the sports practice fields, so throws do not endanger non-players most of the time. It makes good use of the "wasted" space around the fields, and includes a good mix of longer and...

    I'm old and I throw...

    I'm almost 50 and just started playing a couple years ago. It's a great lifetime sport! One thing I've learned is to try different plastics to see how they work for you. My releases were pretty inconsistent until I found Vibram rubber discs. For me, the grip is just right and comfortable to...

    [Question] What is this disc worth (Part IV)?

    KC Pro 11x Roc I bought a used bag and bunch of discs from a local guy last year, including this disc. When I played this fall with some advanced players, one remarked that this is a pretty special disc. It's certainly well-used but flies nicely: dependably stable to slightly understable for...

    New to the whole disc golf world

    You know how you have to pay to practice ball golf at a driving range? Well, you can practice disc golf at any open field - like an empty soccer field behind a grade school. There's probably a place within walking distance from your house! If you're using putters and midranges, you can have some...

    Cabin fever !

    When you're frozen inside, it's a great time to practice the towel snap drill. (Search YouTube for it if you're not familiar with it.)

    Largest brick n mortar dg shop in each state?

    Not a lot of DG shops in Nebraska, but Disc Store in Omaha must be the biggest. Pretty well represented online, too.

    How did you start playing?

    Last year my son was looking for a large service project to earn his Eagle Scout rank, so he asked a local Kiwanian about possible projects. The Kiwanians built our local course just a year ago, and he suggested planting a bunch of trees to help shape the course. We had no idea what DG was, so...

    [Question] Trends Within Your Bag?

    When I started, my bag grew with mostly DC and then some Innova, because those companies are easy to find and buy. Then I spread out to a Gateway putter and some Lat64. Finally I tried a Vibram Lace and love the feel of the rubber. I've since picked up more Vibram, and like the idea of getting...

    [Vibram] Vibram Disc Golf Thread (Part II)

    I just switched to all Vibram for the winter, and I am very pleased with how my first all-Vibram round went yesterday. The soft rubber is so comfortable to throw! I will need the O-lace and will pick up the Ibex and Trak to have understable options in those ranges. I see two needs after the...
