    NW Ohio Course

    Thanks for the quick turn around... I talked with your friend and set up a time to meet up with him. Last November he was looking at the same place for a course too. I thought the city only owned about 15 acres there when it is actually well over 60!!! I also received another message from...

    NW Ohio Course

    At the end of last summer I mentioned about trying to get a park installed in our local park. It was mostly as a "it would be nice if...". I looked into it a little but never really pursued it myself. My wife, being the awesome person she is, sent a few messages to the city manager and...

    Getting my form down...

    That second video on your last post really opened my eyes to where I was going wrong. -ov67cQsElI The first throw in the vid is near the start of my session tonight, and the last couple is where I ended up. The last dozen or so were almost identical in form.

    Getting my form down...

    Alright here is the latest vid. Just took a quick one in the garage again. Wanted to get in the field but it has been raining the past couple days. I know I'm screwing up my reach back pretty badly now but at least my lower body is starting to look better. Going to start focusing more on the...

    Getting my form down...

    Still planning on putting up another video. Every time I go to edit I immediately spot some issues that need fixed. I am throwing about 300' now with great accuracy. Hitting the field again tomorrow and will post that vid so you can see my progress

    New course near Defiance, OH?!?

    Still never got ahold of them.... Although I did run into a fellow discgolfer today. She said that she has played there before. According to her you only need to pay the visitor fee. She said it is a nice little course, but the baskets are homemade. As long as the weather is nice I will...

    Getting my form down...

    Thanks that did help a lot. Today at the course my distance was still about the same but I had much better accuracy since I was only throwing about 70%. Going to practice it a bit more and post up another vid in a couple days. A bit sore from throwing so much these past few.

    Getting my form down...

    So today makes my third day playing and I really want to get my distance up. Currently I'm throwing around 200' standing still. I am not wanting to worry about the x step until I get my form better. I have watched quite a few videos online but even with that think I am still missing...

    New course near Defiance, OH?!?

    It was really storming so I didnt get out of the car and walk around but did see hole 7 tee said 535' par 4 (may have been 635' but my eyesight isnt the greatest). The layout looks like they made really good use of the elevation changes and ponds. Anyway going to their office wasnt any help...

    New course near Defiance, OH?!?

    Good find, says it is 9 holes. Tried calling but no answer. Based on some of their reviews it looks like a tough place to get a hold of. Ill drive out there this afternoon and take a look.

    So had some fun tossing at the fairgrounds today. Was throwing consistently about 200' from a stand still. Just trying to get my form down and use my hips before I move on to the X-step. My aim still leaves a lot to be desired but that will come with more practice. The only downside is I...

    New course near Defiance, OH?!?

    On my way home from Sherwood Park yesterday my wife spotted a basket along the side of 18. We drove by again and sure enough looks like there might be a descent new course there. It is at Shepherd's Pasture Campground. Unfortunately they do not have a website and I could not find any...

    I'd be up for the drive out to Freemont sometime, just bad timing this time around. I will probably will try hitting up a course later in the afternoon. Thinking the Defiance resivoir around 11. I have a small window, dropping off the wife at her 2nd job from 10-2 or so.

    Getting started in NW Ohio

    I'm new to the disc golf scene. Just a couple weeks ago I went to Dallas for work and tagged along with a friend while he played. I had so much fun that as soon as I got back I went online and purchased a few discs. Nothing special just starter set to get my feet wet. (Soft Magnet, Buzzz &...
