    2014 Discraft Ace Race

    We had our local AR today and while I would have been happier with a mid I definitely got two usable drivers out of the deal. Fun times and a pretty good player's pack made it worthwhile for me. I also realized that the TDs take a lot of crap that they shouldn't have to take.

    [Mids] I cycle Rocs but...

    I use a Z comet in the 167-169 range for my understable mid and it has served me well.

    [Drivers] What fairway driver would you use in a one disc round?

    Tough call for me...Eagle or Leopard. I'd probably lean towards the Eagle.

    [Other] Discs you've been saving for spring

    I have a Starlite Mamba, a Champion Mamba, and a Blizzard Katana that I busted out today. Not disappointed in any thus far and it was windy to boot. This is the year that I start throwing distance drivers.

    Help! Who can help me with the Aerobie Epic?

    I tried this today and it definitely barrel rolled a lot but didn't ever level out and glide. I think that either I didn't get enough power or didn't throw it high enough. Interestingly enough I found a reliable way to forehand it, which is interesting. I haven't been able to successfully...

    Dislocated kneecap! How long before playing again is ok?

    Anything dislocated needs to heal properly before going back. Odds are already good that it's going to happen again anyway. No need to make it worse by coming back from it too early.

    Kind of funny story, but kinda long.

    My instinct is to print this off and post it at the course...

    Kind of funny story, but kinda long.

    I understand this. I just thought it best to keep my opinion separate from the OP.

    Kind of funny story, but kinda long.

    I don't really have a problem with the boozing part. It's when they won't leave other patrons alone that's the problem. It's just lake any other public place; when you act like a jerk towards someone else, it's time to go. I see plenty of drunk guys. Rarely ever are they a problem. There...

    Indeed it is.

    Kind of funny story, but kinda long.

    A few weeks ago I went disc golfing with a few co-workers on a Friday. When we get to the course we can't help but notice two really drunk guys at tee box 1. They are just cracking open a fine box of wine, so we skip to 10 in order to avoid them. Just as we are finishing 18 we see cops...

    [Discraft] 2012 Ace Race disc is a faster longer buzzz

    At our race is was definitely presented as a fairway driver.

    [Discraft] 2012 Ace Race disc is a faster longer buzzz

    I liked it. I threw it on a slight anhyzer most of the day and had several close calls. I like the way it finishes when thrown on a moderate hyzer. I noticed that the forehand throwers had more problems with it than us backhanders.

    [DGA] DGA Blunt Gumbputt

    What made me even consider it was that my Mako is pretty floppy and I have sunk some pretty long putts (for a beginner, anyway) with it. One of my wife's friends has a Gumbputt and I took it out for a round and it seemed like it might be worth working with. Good to know that I have two decent...
