    2014 Tourney Videos

    I'm so glad you posted this. For one, it means it really exists. I randomly stumbled upon this video and it was so damn surreal I wasn't sure if I just imagined it. Secondly, how freaking trippy is this? 21 meter holes? Dudes that take 3 throws to get 21 meters. 9 holes in like...

    In need of advice

    Do it all! I have a buddy that throws LH and RH, FH and BH for both. The guy steps up to the tee and automatically has 2 if not 3 more options than "normal" players.

    Found a Great Course

    I'm with the dudes above, you shouldn't have told us, but now that you did, don't hold out, we want pictures, or a grainy cell phone course walk through video.... I always have mixed feelings about courses near churches or schools. I really love the concept, but due to some of "our"...

    Learning RHFH from scratch

    Brody, So I watched your critique video, and I echo what Sidewinder and Jax are saying in the thread, you're all arm and not enough body/feet. There were some real gems in there, some real good foundations to build upon. So you said you were a baseball player? The FH swing is very...

    Help with basic forehand

    As someone above said, so much of the throw is the actual flick. To get the feel, throw a bunch by only "swinging" your forearm, meaning your upper arm has little to no involvement in the swing. Once you get the feel of the correct "hit", you can start lengthening your swing. A couple...

    First Post is a sad one

    But then you'll have to worry about that disc eating lawn mower.... That would be nice to have two acres for safari golf. You're lucky friend...

    Does anyone find this ironic?

    I don't know if it's better or not, there's different ways of looking at it. Its almost along the same lines as "Is it better to just have 4 or 5 molds, but have multiple discs of each mold in varying states of wear, or is it better to have 20 different discs?" Personally, I'd be fine with...

    Does anyone find this ironic?

    I used to change up my bag pretty frequently, now I only do it if a) it's super windy b) I'm playing the mountain (lots of lava rock that loves the taste of plastic) A poster above had a great idea, keep like 8-10 "regular" discs in your bag, then rotate out 5 or so, that way you can build...

    First Post is a sad one

    Wait till you lose a disc you REALLY love, like an ace disc (yeah, I know, I'm an idiot for continuing to throw my ace discs) or an OOP disc. Sorry to hear it, but at least its a pretty easy disc to replace.

    Is this how it is -- taunting over found discs?

    OP, if you haven't already, post the DB's number. We won't make any mention of you or your disc, but he'll know he's done something sh.itty....

    Hyper-bowls are the best, so long as you don't get too stoned....

    Why is chartreuse the new shirt color of choice?

    Unless you're a man that fishes, then you know all sorts of funky colors

    Release Drills? Help for crappy release

    When I started making sure my wrist was at the right angle, it started to rip out at the right time, without any conscious decision on my part...

    Release Drills? Help for crappy release

    I know one thing that really helped me with my release (and this could be WAY off for your particular problem) was making sure I had the right wrist angle. When you're holding your disc, your hand should be at the same angle it is when you go to shake someone's hand. This helps keep the disc...

    What are the must play courses in the Portland area???

    It sounds like you're forgoing Hornings to play Milo and Timber. If that's the case, I'd play Hornings over those two, ESPECIALLY if no one in your group has played Milo. For all the good at Milo, it is ABSOLUTELY horrible navigating if you've never been there. The maps (both course maps and...
