    So, how did you play today?

    I played my best round ever at Mackenzie Park in Lubbock Texas this morning throwing 68 on 21 holes which is +3. I found the Panther in the water that I lost last week plus two other discs. I texted their owners, hopefully they'll get back to me.

    Hey fat guys!

    I generally just push through it and by the time I get to the next tee I'm back to normal, it's never bad... I was just thinking of how it might effect shots. Now, as far as my arm getting tired, I actually find that it helps me throw better because I quit trying to throw so hard and it smooths...

    Hey fat guys!

    I'm a big fat guy, and I play disc golf for fun and to help me on my path to losing weight. I generally don't get out of breath except in places when there is a steep incline. If you are out of breath, do you wait a minute to catch it before throwing again, or just go ahead and throw? I was...

    Back Pain

    Chiropractors have gained acceptance in the medical community. Definitely see at least your PCP. I'm a nurse on a neurosurgery unit and many of the neurosurgeons that I work with refer their patients to chiropractors. They can really help you out.

    Review by Giantjerk in course McAlister Park

    1.50 star(s) It has potential... -Not many people there -Wind presents an interesting challenge -Great location -Nice bathrooms and ample parking on site. -Baskets at #5, #14, and #15 are missing -Terrain is terrible, it's all rough knee high weeds and stickers with prairie dog holes. -Overgrown, uneven dirt...

    (shudders) the thought of being neck deep in the nasty water around here makes me gag. It smells so bad! I'm glad you had so much luck!

    Plantar Fasciitis

    I had it really bad until I got arch support inserts for my shoes.

    Lost Disc Mega Thread: Post your lost disc questions and stories here.

    Today I saw that the water level in the river was low so I went out into the mud to look where I thought my Birdie Putter was lost 5 days ago. I slogged around for about 10 minutes before finding it a good 50 feet down river from where I had thought it went stuck half in the mud. Woot! :D

    Questions?

    Does dying the discs make them harder to find? How does MVP Neutron plastic take dye? Just wondering... thanks!

    Sandals for disc?

    I used to occasionally wear flip flops and kick them off to throw until one day I found myself in the middle of a multi acre sticker patch. Now I wear Fila Skele-toes.

    [Drivers] Straightest Fairway You've Ever Thrown

    I love Neutron Volts. They fly low and straight.

    Sudden increase in drive distance has caused me a problem.

    Right, I actually threw a Buzzz on a 340' hole today and parked it right next to the basket. I was VERY proud of that shot. Then I whiffed an easy putt and ended up getting par on it... I really need to work on my putting.

    So, how did you play today?

    I decided to play Mae Simmons in Lubbock this morning instead of my usual course and boy I threw bad. Mae has a lot of trees and I think I hit every single one of them twice. Lost my newest disc (Pink Z Zombee) and scored 18 over par. I still had a blast!
