    Swirling Winds - What to throw?

    Make sure to play to the full reach of your shot too. Massively overstable discs that are played too low (find the ground with too much speed) have much more of a tendency to flair up from a big skip. This is the opposite of what you want in wind, especially with OB toward the natural precession...

    What's the worst part of your game?

    The worst part of my game is easily just finding time to get out and enjoy the game along with family, work, and all of my other obligations.

    Rounding?

    Just throw 500' laser beams and forget about how.

    Awesome tournament. Camping all weekend, rustic cabins and showers available on site. Discs for sale in the Chalet, a great place to spend a weekend in September.

    Executing The Dream

    I think one thing that people tend to do when building courses is try way too hard to just force some holes so they can rip some discs. When you set out to make a course, remember that it will be a work in progress FOREVER. You have no reason to rush something you cannot complete. Make sure to...

    Review by MountainGoat in course Mont du Lac - White Cedar

    4.50 star(s) Beast of a Course <> Some of the best smelling, and most beautiful mid-summer scenery in the country <> Difficult shots from start to finish <> Lots of variety in the overall shape of the holes with a themed focus on tight shots. Sometimes the ceiling is really low, and sometimes you are teeing...

    170g DX Aviar P&A Thing will glide forever and will fly in a line so straight.... Will also need frequent replacement.

    [Question] ID a disc or ask "What is the story on this disc...?" - Take II

    Awesome! Good to know this disc has gone that long and still goes left! This pretty much makes me a ROC fan because the entire length of time I have been playing I have gone through 2 GlowZ Buzzzs and 2 Z Buzzzs and they all would eventually flip too much. I do like the glide of the Buzzz but...

    Land for sale in Medina, Great for Disc Golf!

    I like your train of thought.... I would like to think that here in the Lake Superior Basin we have the best terrain on Earth. I just know that the best place to play disc golf in the world is going to have a waterfall at the end so you can just grab a beer and jump in the river. Beautiful!

    [Question] ID a disc or ask "What is the story on this disc...?" - Take II

    ROC Just traded for this disc as I loved it's diverse flights. I know it looks ugly and like nobody loves it but seriously, this thing flies like a dream come true. You can turn the glide on and off on this disc, you can throw it on an anhyzer and make it keep that line, you can flip it... you...
