    Wooded courses strategy question.

    So theres a course close to me that quite honestly isnt the best maintained. I mean it seems to be upkept somewhat, but there are multiple missing basket situations (That work out fine, because you can still sort of 'make' 18 out of it) since the course is sort of a 9 basket loop, you can sort...

    Losing Plastic

    I hate the fact that I lose discs like its going out of style, yet never find anyone else's lost discs. Most of mine I end up finding (because Im persistant as hell and Im not above spending an extra 3 hours at the course in the same bush looking for my disc) but I have never once found a 'wild'...

    deformed discs.

    Thanks, will try. I couldnt believe I somehow lost a 'hunters orange' disc in a bush less than a foot high. The area was just so grown up I had no idea where to start to look.

    Disc golf snobs

    On the topic of Disc Golf Snobs, The only snobs i have personally experienced are the 'my discs are better than yours' snobs. "What are you throwing?" "Just a DX *whatever*" "Oh, hmm. I order all my discs from *wherever*. I mainly thow *so-called superior brand*"

    deformed discs.

    Today I had some good news, and some bad news. I went to the local course to have lunch today. I decided to go look for a disc I had lost about a month back, and wouldn't you know it, There it was, I didn't even have to look more than a minute or two. Its amazing I never saw it before with the...

    Hole distance measurements question.

    Its just so odd, its almost tempting to buy measurement tools myself just to check, because Hillcrest park in Vincennes IN has holes listed at about 250 that I can barely get throw to, but Kerr Station is Cabot AR has holes listed at 250 that I can throw probably 50 feet past. Both are on flat...

    Hole distance measurements question.

    ^The depth thing. Thats what I was thinking could be my problem. Idk. I know a course I have played countless times in the past has a new pin setup, but I recognize landmarks, and The first hole is listed as like 255 or something close to that, and I know I could bomb one well past the basket.

    Hole distance measurements question.

    Are the hole distance measurements usually just guesswork? I was looking through some courses earlier and noticed quite a bit of distance discrepancies. Where a hole could be listed as 200-something feet, but look way shorter in the pictures, or one that looks twice as long, but listed as only...

    Love the new Banner

    I didn't notice that it had changed. I noticed it was..different, but I couldn't put my finger on it lol. I had to just look it at for a minute to realize it was new.

    2013 Inbounds InFlight Guide Giveaway...

    I would appreciate one because there really is no place locally for me to buy anything disc golf related. If i don't order it, I don't get it period. It would be nice to have something like that to read up on and show around to get people in my area more interested in disc golf. We have a course...

    Things Disc Golfers Say

    Im more of a... "F**kin TREE!!!" "Oh, Now you don't hit the tree! You just go flying a billion feet away from the basket!" "Oh...oh...YEAH!" "GET IN THAT F**KIN BASKET!" "Ok. Slow and steady..Breathe, and Putt........F**K!!!!" ...kind of guy.

    Why Ratings are awful

    There is never going to be an end all-beat all ratings system unless every course had the same par, or was the same difficulty. The ratings are great because they assess how a player will shoot ON AVERAGE. You wont find a solid number for ratings because people don't shoot the same exact number...

    Introducing my neighbors to Disc Golf

    Ive introduced people twice to Disc Golf. My ex-ex girlfriend (and her friends) and my current girlfriend. The ex-ex liked it, but wasn't very great even after a few months of playing, I always felt bad finishing holes multiple shots ahead of her. Her friends had fun the first time but weren't...
