    Review by fireball42 in course Warren Township Park

    3.00 star(s) Wooded technical course -Two tees for every basket - multiple lines through the woods - OB in play on several holes - signs on only one of the two tees - can be confusing - several holes play over walking paths and near private property - has been very muddy, standing water on a few holes...

    Review by fireball42 in course Antioch Silver Lochs

    3.50 star(s) Good course that will get even better -Solid pads and good baskets -Well manicured park, where pedestrians rarely come into play - good variety of length, elevations and basket lines Really enjoying this course. It has some good shorter but still challenging holes requiring hitting a line past...

    i was at a disc shop recently and feeling some putters. i put my hands on a JK pro aviar-x and i absolutely feel in love with it. it is soft and super grippy, while not having a weird shape or being too different than my champ aviar. it does have a bead but, it is much more subtle compared to...

    JK Pro Aviar-x vs. Champ Aviar P&A. differences?

    so other than how it feels in my hand, which i already like, how does it affect the flight pattern? more or less wind resistant? etc?

    JK Pro Aviar-x vs. Champ Aviar P&A. differences?

    So i currently have a champ aviar P&A that i put and occasionally approach with. it was the first disc i bought and i had no idea what i was looking for. I played a few times recently though and the champ plastic was slippery frequently. I am looking to purchase a JK aviar because i really like...

    my first recorded drive. critique requested.

    Hey JR, I went out to the field with your advice in mind and threw drives for over an hour in the field. I made an effort to take reach back farther and make sure my X-step (my right foot) was turning my body completely backwards. I noticed two things. I had several several throws turnover on...

    a good way to practice putting without a basket?

    thanks everyone for the good suggestions. i have a big tree in my yard, that could really use a duct-tape X on it. Im a little hesitant to Purposely throw my putter at a tree, but the champ plastic combined with normal putting force shouldnt do too much damage. B)

    Thanks for the welcome keltik. I listed my gfs discs because they are also in my bag and I do practice with them occassionally etc. She really likes the rims of the roc ( I think they are beaded?) And so her magnet and cheetah represent that style. Why do you recommend the dx aviar over the...

    well JR i took your advice in part while still satisfying my desire for new shiny plastic. I got a 170g Champ Teebird, I am sure it will fly a little different then my 150 DX TB but it should handle the crazy headwind conditions better which I have been dealing with lately. i chose not to buy a...

    a good way to practice putting without a basket?

    hey everybody. the closest disc golf basket to my house is a 25 minute drive so practicing putting can be difficult. i was wondering if anyone has thought of a good way to practice putting with some kind of everyday object or makeshift "macgyver" basket. thanks in advance.

    newer player building his bag

    i see your point JR. you are correct that i have a lot to work on and I do not expect a new disc to turn me into an overnight pro. in fact most of the time using a new discs makes my game worse because I don't know how to throw it perfectly. i don't see buying new discs as throwing money away...

    thanks for the articles bent. should be something that improves my game. well i can throw these throws well with my panther and my stingray. being left handed i had to learn to anhy quickly because the courses are generally a little more rhbh friendly. i can also get a decent s-curve with my...

    hey guys. i went out to play today in some crazy wind conditions that were gusting 30 mph or more. i had discs falling backwards, hovering, rolling sideways and all kinds of other crazy. it was a good learning experience playing in those kind of experience and overall the day wasn't that bad...
