2.50 star(s) A reasonable option for those in the south. A variety of distances, a lot of gentle slopes to make things interesting, and a handful of trees. There are basically 2 fields that 16 of the holes play across, so when there are more than a handful of people on the course, you're constantly having to...

I think that the key here is that agreement to the lie is implied by not explicitly disagreeing, provided you have a fair chance to do so. There's already a rule stating that everyone on the card has an obligation to observe every opponents throw for fair application of the rules. This was key...

I've long felt there seems to be a hole in the competition manual; at no point does it say that a tournament official has to be present for a play-off, does it? Without which, how would one player ever call a penalty such as a foot fault on another player? It seems like common sense they would...

3.00 star(s) A decent little wooded 9 hole The Calgary area is lacking in densely wooded courses, and this is one of those. The course design is quite good, with a variety of lines to hit and lengths of throw. That's the strength of this little 9 hole. A good place for amateur players to hone their...

So I just want to keep this up to date, but I can't edit my original post. After a group discussion and debate one evening, we decided to reduce the value of the 20 point line to 15 points, and it's been a good change. This serves two purposes. The difference in distance between the 40 and 45...

This pisses me off... with all the pro sports gone I was hopeful that the PDGA would just ban spectators, tournament gatherings, and high fiving, and then keep the events and video coverage. I don't think this had to happen, disc golf is a non contact individual sport in the outdoors. I'm...

Hey! Yeah we call this the "anti-defense" rule, so that you can't hold opponents off going 4/4 from in close. Yeah we play tested the game a bit with just 2 of us, and it's great if the players are relatively close in skill. If there's a significant skill gap, then just like any other sport...

"Greed" is a game we've been playing at our indoor putting league for 2 seasons now. It's been a big hit, and a significant improvement over the common basic game which we refer to as 'horseshoes', so I thought I'd share it for other putting leagues to try. The down side is that it requires...

What if I told you that tonight I took video while doing the one leg drill, and I'm still shrugging? I can stand on one leg, throw hard, stay balanced, and yet while the disc is in the power pocket my throwing arm shoulder is still high. I'm taking this as an indication that the problem is not...
