    How To Make It In America (In A Sport That Gets No Love)

    Getting more people to play as youths is the key. I know I like to watch niche sports, because I like to play them. I will watch DG on you tube all day. I played volleyball in high school and love to watch indoor volleyball when on. I bowled duckpin for 20+ years and try to watch bowling...

    thanx for the help. My bro-in-law suggests fuel pump. We've done plugs and wires, along with upper plenum gasket in the past and then it got warmer so not sure if it helped at the time. When trying to start, it seems like out of fuel, but full tank. Turn the key off, then back on and catches...

    I have a Ford Explorer question/problem. Any idea why it'd be hard to start when cold outside? Not dead/low battery, just won't catch. I seem to remember you being a ford guy, and figured you'd might know.

    First Disc(s) ever bought

    Back in '95, I found a little course near my home, and after watching some people throw frisbees, went to the dollar store near the course and bought a frisbee. Terrible choice, but what did I know. Since I was into building plastic models, I was at the local hobby store about 2 weeks later...

    Do you play under these conditions?

    One thing I found is to not use your car's ac until after the round. That way, on the way to the course, your body slowly adapts to the hotter temps.

    Courses that make you relieved you shot 8 over

    Played Nockamixon myself last summer. Great course but it is extremly hard for some reason. Holes are long, but not unreachable in 3 or 4, it's just......I don't know. You have to play it to understand.

    Smoking BANNED at 2011 Worlds

    Sorry Prerube. I just now read through the thread and saw my post very similar to yours. Please don't hurt me.

    Smoking BANNED at 2011 Worlds

    No problem with banning smoking during tournament play from me. How many other sports allow their atheletes to smoke during a tournament?

    Putting focus points

    It makes sense to me. I bowled for 20 years and was always told that if I am missing left to move myself left. It was weird but always worked. As far as a focus point, I try to find something on the pole itself, a paint mark, ding, small moth, something to focus on a point. If I am further...

    High School Disc Golf Teams

    I think it's a great idea, but can't get around the fact that most schools do not have a course on school grounds or nearby in my area. I think the hardest part would be getting the kids to the course. My 7 year old is just now starting to enjoy it a bit more, and we were even able to work it...

    found a new putter

    I used to putt with an Archangel. It was weird but felt the best in my hand, and I got some confidence using it. Then I switched to a Soft Magnet. Funny thing is, when I was out with some buddies and it was really windy, nobody could make a putt outside of about 15', until I picked up the...

    aerobie Arrow putter

    My friend uses his to putt with all the time. And my mother-in-law got me one for Christmas 2 years ago, it stays in the bag for the hill shots as it doesmn't seem to roll down a hill if I miss.
