i was always amazed at how those old school DM/Innova pros could throw C-Line PD2's so far. we had a local innova pro here almost a decade ago who would break out his C PD2 and let us normal arms try and throw it and it was always laughable at how OS they were. I was throwing backhands with...

I played Maple Hill last week and lost one of my beloved broken in KC Pro rocs... along with about 4 other discs in the numerous water carry holes. It was a great time, and about 1000ft away is Marshalls street disc golf store/pyramids dg course so we went over and perused... where i found...

I'm super happy there's a lot of pro disc golfers can make living wages (and top tier ones making nice substantial salaries) from sponsorships now. Thats the real thing driving pro's to switch sponsors. Its not like professional athletes playing on teams switching teams which means having to...

i used to use plastic petri dishes for lids when i worked at a state laboratory. nothing with any bacterial/fungal cultures on them lol but extras from old stock. they are finicky and fly like polecats and also very fragile but man it made passing time in the lab fun.

Tiger Woods, Nike announce end of 27-year partnership "I ride and die for Innova now" - Tiger

i’ve played this hole. the shorter tee lefty line doesn’t really work for a birdie 2 because there’s a ceiling under 10ft and hard root stumps on the ground killing most skips. the center/right side is tight but you can get there because there’s enough space to put height on the shot. when...

from my personal experience (especially when other people throw this color) purple is a horrible solid color to try to find after throwing even compared solid black. nothing will beat tie dye for hard to find colors but for solid colors I've had problems so many times when my card mates and...

Another vote for Pink or light blue for general 4 seasons. They excel in fall leaves. the only problem with pinks is the older/dirtier/beat up the disc the more earth toned it can become. But that’s a general rule for any color. having played in really bad New England fall leaves I learned...

i recently bought and threw the dark rebel in champ plastic (dong rebel stamp) and its very similar/analogous to a 5th run C-Line FD. A little dome-ier, glide-er, and less stable version of old school champ plastic FD. But its still an awesome FD for those that like FD. I bagged 6th runs...

Disc Golf information on Tournaments/leagues/course conditions/casual rounds/etc is the only reason i still have Facebook. U Disc is extremely helpful on getting proper directions to DG courses (where to park/etc) with Waze/Googlemaps/etc and as a scoring app. Discgolf Scene for actual...

there’s a group of oldies who play in SF golden gate disc golf park that naturally play early in the AM and call themselves…. morning wood

what about a soccer artificial turf shoe thats available in wide sizes? I'm contemplating trying out soccer artificial turf shoes in nike but for me i don't really need a wide toe box (I prefer a wider toe box if there's an option though). theoretically they should be engineered to handle the...

it sounds like you got to really know your current stable to over stable discs. which is a great thing! it’s tough to try something new and learn it especially if you have limited time or want to have something trusty to score well on a course. i was like 95% left handed backhand when i...

i split the difference and play in inov8 shoes that have 3-4mm drop depending on the model. i wait till they're on sale. usually last a season until the aggressive tread wears down. i throw backhand/forehand so wear out both right/left shoes and the stress will tear the uppers on stress...
