Hi all -- figured this was a good spot to put this question. I'm doing a story on Vibram for Rattling Chains and am looking for a couple of people who throw a lot of Vibram discs to interview for the story. If anyone is interested, you can send me a PM here or shoot me an e-mail...

On the disc golf blog I run, I always make sure when courses are mentioned to link them back to here. I figure if people want to know about courses when we mention them, this is the best place for them to check 'em out!

5.00 star(s) The ultimate mini experience This is the mini course that all minis should strive to be like. But with the amount of space here, it should be! Unlike all the other courses we had seen this day, this spot had the ability to give you many multiple shots. - Water holes. Water came into play...

3.50 star(s) Pretty cool, short layout This was a cool course in that it was a mini course in a public park. - Great baskets. They are what mini baskets should be! - Easy for beginners, which is good when doing mini. Shorter holes make it easier for people. - Loaner discs available at the first hole and...

4.00 star(s) Nice work on this one! A nice course in an area with well-manicured fairways and everything kept nice. In a residential area, private course. - Creative holes. I liked the hole setups here. Nicely done all around. Cool selection for holes. - Good use of the landscape. Dave has really put...

4.00 star(s) What a cool setup! My first Mini DGC experience, so I rate it a solid 4. Interesting how the mini courses differ from the big courses. - Cool layout. Talk about taking advantage of the area. Linc had crammed one heck of a cool course into his yard. Some really wild holes, including "big arm"...

4.00 star(s) An enjoyable experience I absolutely loved this course. It was a pretty solid layout. Very easy to follow. And pretty straight forward. Some thoughts. - Easy to navigate. Even with some holed having more than one basket, it was easy to see what you were doing. Good tee signs. - Nice layout...

I have DFLd in my division several times. I have DFLd in a tournament a few, too. No shame in it. Live and learn. Plus, one or two times I got a prize out of it! :D

In that case, get as tight as possible and really show the action. If that's the shot you are looking for, then having people in the background or other items can make the image cluttered. Sometimes, there's no choice, but if you can get in tight, it can work very well. You can also still...

That is simply awesome. I don't have a fish-eye lens, though one day in the future I hope to. This really is quite wild. Perfect grab and everything works so well. Nice work! As for the initial question, as others have said, it's subjective. Thinking outside the box is the way to go when it...

Thanks all for the responses. For those of you who offered to be interviewed, I will be sending a PM sometime today with the things I'll be looking for. It's always good to have people interested in helping, especially when I have a list of people I can talk to for future stories...

Hey all -- A few of us are launching a disc golf blog tomorrow (March 5). As a former sports writer, I wanted to try and see what I could do with a DG blog. It's going to cover many things, but I'm going to be working on more in-depth stories, profiles, interviews etc. -- things I haven't found...

Sometimes going through crazy situations to get the photo makes for the best ones in the end!

Another awesome image!

That might be one of the coolest disc golf images I've seen in a long time. The black and white tones are incredible and the whole setting is wild. It's shots like this I am always searching for when taking photos of disc golf. Awesome!
