    Developing a Left Handed Shot?

    Lefty approach shots are a great thing to work on to play for the opposite fade/if a tree is blocking your throw and are not nearly as hard as learning to throw 300-400 feet with your off hand. I think that's a useful time investment. Maybe eventually that can lead to driving off hand if you get...

    Most Simple Post Ever

    I seriously love watching the disc fly. Especially if it goes where I want it to, but even if not. All of the things above are awesome, but I can't get over watching that disc go, go, go.

    Would you have said something?

    If they care at all after playing that first time, they will have noticed that everyone else on the course was using something different and asked about it, since clearly they aren't afraid of asking questions. If they had fun playing with those, I see no problem with it. Someone else may have...

    Online or at a local store?

    I've never bought a disc online, at least not yet. I'm not sure if I could give up being able to hold it, feel it, and pick out the perfect disc at the store. Plus, it makes the experience of buying the disc that much more memorable and I enjoy and appreciate it that much more. It's a lot more...

    [Innova] New Innova Discs question (for Wraith Lovers)

    Sweet, thanks for the input. And 450 is with a wide open field, no wind. I do tend to hit things fairly often when playing...Maybe I'll eventually try the Boss, but I just wanted to know if I was missing out on anything spectacular.

    [Innova] New Innova Discs question (for Wraith Lovers)

    Right, should have mentioned that I can probably throw ~450' max in no wind with the Wraith, so I shouldn't have a problem with high speed discs. I think I just couldn't get the height or accuracy down with the destroyer, probably thought it was slightly too understable yet had surprisingly...

    [Innova] New Innova Discs question (for Wraith Lovers)

    I love the Star Wraith, probably throw it for 80% of drives over 300 feet, anything that doesn't require a hard curve either direction. (I throw a Firebird or Orc/Sidewinder for those) I have yet to see any of the newest discs (XCaliber, Boss, Groove, Katana). Last time I got a new disc was the...

    charging for returned discs

    I think it's where the disc was that this question hinges on. If it was in the water I would gladly either pay you or tell you to keep it if I didn't really want it back. On land you'd give it back for free, since they probably looked for it and just couldn't find it. Although when I was a kid...

    How long did it take to get your 1st ACE?

    6 years or so now and still haven't plugged one. I threw one in from 275' for an eagle on a par 4, so that was pretty close. It'll happen eventually...

    Buying a lost disc

    So this is similar to the info blacked out thread, but I think it's different enough. How do you feel about buying a disc that was lost but still has a phone number on it? I think it probably depends on context. The Berkeley Marina course (CA) is right next to a large, cold, deep body of water...

Wimberly's Circle R ranch (hosts World Amateur Doubles) and the new facility half an hour away in Dripping Springs are supposed to...

    Top DG cities

    Alright, I added some more profiles for the cities that I missed the first time around, including Bowling Green, Kansas City, Pittsburgh, Mobile, and Tampa. San Francisco was easily the most rejected, so it moves down. How about a top 15?: 1. Charlotte, NC 2. Cincinnati, OH 3. Minneapolis/St...

    Top DG cities

    Oh it's totally fine, I'm glad this is sparking discussion and debate, that was really the purpose anyway. Those are just the cities that I would want to visit, but I guess I will have to add Kansas City and Tampa to the list. I have also heard about Bowling Green and Louisville as good...
