    I'm fat, and my form sucks

    Recorded a few throws yesterday but I'm not gonna upload them. They felt different but I'll be damned if they're not the same. Reaching back equals leaning back. I'm thinking of drastically reducing my run up, and going to a slow walk up/x step instead of what I'm doing now. Also...

    I'm fat, and my form sucks

    So I started playing again and figured why not do something about my form, because well...I know it's bad. I have a lot of body to move around and it's not always smooth..or pretty. Before I quit playing I was throwing around 475 uDisc distance, 500 on a good rip, again uDisc distance. Today...

    Disc replacement/additions during round

    Dude had to pee real bad! It's a warning for the first infraction, so make sure you get all the discs you need in that first trip!

    When Can Curtesy Violations be Called?

    I was thinking 2 minute warning onward for an actual courtesy violation. At the meeting etc it's called just being a dick. If you're the league director, direct the league. If you don't want that kind of stuff happening make an announcement during the meeting that it won't be tolerated any...

    Simon's Q&A in advance of Dynamic Discs Open Coverage (CBSSports Network)

    I think the super important take away for Simon is...that's how HE feels about HIS game. I really doubt he'd tell anyone they're doing it wrong/living wrong or be disrespectful towards their work ethic. Most people at the top seem to always say awesome things about Simon. What's scary to me...

    New Discs

    To add, keep working with the comet and get the release clean, it'll pay off going forward.

    Simon's Q&A in advance of Dynamic Discs Open Coverage (CBSSports Network)

    Is there really anyone that hates him though? Serious question. He's great for the sport and has a great personality. If he doesn't want to devote every aspect of his life to winning...so be it. He's still winning on his own level.

    Dynamic Discs Open Coverage Air Dates Set on CBS Sports Network

    That was my interpretation. Emporia turns up for the GBO, the entire city supports it and rolls out the red carpet, it's pretty amazing.

    Mold minimalism and over marketing?

    It's completely personal preference. My personal preference is buy discs in the speed/stability that works for the lines I want to throw. I used to carry Buzzz's only for mids in different levels of wear, teebirds, thunderbirds and wraiths, 3-4 of each disc. I lost my super flippy wraith and...

    Simon's Q&A in advance of Dynamic Discs Open Coverage (CBSSports Network)

    Simon is growing his brand which is great for him, but in terms of disc golf 10-15 years from now who is going to be remembered? Paul McBeth/Ricky Wysocki or Simon Lizotte? Do we all know who Ken Climo is? Who was the distance champion/longest thrower in his prime? (If you know kudos, don't...

    Dynamic Discs Open Coverage Air Dates Set on CBS Sports Network

    I get that...I'm aware of the upbringing of the XGames and Shaun White, but I don't ever really remember any drug use during that time. I don't think it was until after his career that he came out and talked about all the sex and drugs that was had and even that was done in Olympic Village...

    Dynamic Discs Open Coverage Air Dates Set on CBS Sports Network

    Out on the chainless baskets but I'm with you on the dress and such. Disc golf has a reputation that it's going to have to work hard to shed if it really wants to start gaining monetary gain from non sports/disc golf related companies. 4 hours on an off brand sports channel that's tucked away...

    [Vs.] Roc vs. Buzzz

    Me and Rocs never clicked. The Buzzz however...we're besties.
