    I was in Albuquerque last week and got all excited when I saw a PIAS. The PIAS here in Mobile AL closed down before I got into DG. So I u-turned and went in. They had a whole wall display of discs, both new and used. The new ones were X-outs and they and the used discs started at $7.99. In fact...

    Anny vs Understable for Noobie RHBH

    Actually, that's how I'm playing the course. My Skeeter and the Aviar. Once in a while I'll get stupid and try the Leopard from the tee, but I'm immediately sorry. That's exactly what I'm going to (try) and do! Dunno about this one. I'm 60 years old. Dunno if I have a year. :)

    Anny vs Understable for Noobie RHBH

    If turn everything over means it dives sharply to the left towards the end of the flight, that's exactly what happens when I throw the TeeRex AND the Leopard. That's why I usually reach for the Skeeter when I'm on the tee. I understand I don't have the snap yet, hey, I've only played...

    Anny vs Understable for Noobie RHBH

    I understand! I'll have to cut and paste and re-read it to remember it (hey, I'm old!), but I think I understand the answers. Now I have to look up my discs, understable v overstable, and try to incorporate all this into my game. TeeRex, Leopard, Skeeter, Aviar P&A, (all DX), and a new Pro Boss...

    Anny vs Understable for Noobie RHBH

    Not sure what the question is either :) I guess what I don't understand is 1) When/where in the flight does each term come into play? ie: If I position the disc to throw straight (tee shot), would an understable disc fade to the right at the end of the flight, or elsewhere during the flight? 2)...

    Anny vs Understable for Noobie RHBH

    I have some noobie confusion. Well, actually a lot. Speaking as a RHBH; I (think I) understand anhyzer as turning to the right. I (think I) understand understable as a disc's tendency to turn to the right. What's the difference twixt the two? I know the anhyzer is the way I position the disc at...

    [Innova] Plastic Peeling? Bubbles? In Star Plastic.

    T'was me, I'd call Innova. I'd be more than a little annoyed that I was paying more for their "better" plastics and having these problems.

    First birdie!!

    Thanks all! so far, LOVE this game! Yep, both sets (wifey & mine) had a Leopard, a Skeeter, and an Aviar. I dunno, I kinda like the Skeeter. Then again, I am a rank beginner. Funny thing is, altho I can't yet handle the Leopard, my wife, who throws RH forehand, handles it nicely. It doesn't go...

    First birdie!!

    I've only been playing since my bro-in-law introduced me to this game up in Ann Arbor mid-October of this year. Since then my wife and I have played 7 times in Cottage Hill Park here in Mobile, Alabama with our 3-in-a-set, $19.95 DX discs. I made my first birdie yesterday on hole 11! 2 shots on...

    Yellowjackets in Mobile, Alabama

    UPDATE My wife called the Parks & Rec Department about the yellowjackets and the garbage strewn about the course. They apologized and cleaned up both the very next day. Kudos to the City of Mobile!

    I played there the day before I got stung and had no issues.

    Yellowjackets in Mobile, Alabama

    Exactly! My poor wife's eye is way swollen. My forearm hurts a lot so I know she's in a ton of pain. Park employees too lazy (& fat) to put up a warning sign. I work for this city also and know there's a multitude of lazy employees. All this pain, and who knows how many other people have been...
