I can't choose just one, so the softer Rhynos and Soft Challenger/Soft Banger-GT are my ying/yang putter combo. Older Pro-line Rhyno (soft) and floppy black Soft Challenger as primary putters based on preferred line or on-fire-o-meter. R-Pro Rhyno and 170ish soft Banger-GT approach putts...

Ski Hill courses by their very description imply significant elevation change, and usually in the downward direction. There is also the implication of wooded alpine surroundings. Sounds like the ultimate change of pace to the vast majority of courses I play, which is why I love playing a summer...

Since this property is primarily a disc golf course, there are no other park users, such as walkers/riders to be concerned about. The layout has a variety of shot types and hazards, and with 4...

Cali was the first term I heard used for a single player in a doubles game. My crew in Fontana has since started calling that guy Han Solo, or Hans for short. I have seen the number of mullies per hole played different too. Sometimes only 1 extra per hole, sometimes 2. But it seems like you...

I await the arrival of the R-Pro Rhyno as well. My original putter is an older Pro-line (2003-4) that is perfectly soft and floppy, similar to the SE. I have run across some softer Pro-lines over the last few years that I have added to my putter stash, but for the most part, the PRo-Rhynos are...

Revolution Seattle bag with Gore-tex? I currently have a Revolution Pro bag from a few years back that has held up very well, though it does have some holes in the bottom liner where the frame corners have rubbed over time. I have seen and fondled some of the Revo Dualpacks out on the course...
