    Putt hanging on rim of basket

    So this has happened to me once before, but this time I got it on video while practicing in the backyard. Put hits chains and proceeds to bounce out of basket, only to get caught on the rim of the basket but hanging outside of basket. I think this used to be legal and count as in, but I'm...

    Your First Ace

    My first two "aces" were actually "cubby aces", both were my second drive on a hole and both I would consider more luck than skill. They both occurred in my first summer of disc golf after starting the previous fall. They were both any forehand shots with drivers on short holes that I normally...

    Tee Box Question

    I've been curious about this. At one of our courses there is a teepad that is sloped downhill a few degrees and it's one of the longest holes on the course. I don't have a long run up, but I do put a lot of body momentum into my throws (RHFH) to get more distance and when I tee off on this...

    Travel basket?

    I've played on a discatcher, works fine for a portable basket. If you're aren't as concerned about portability and are looking for a better basket for a similar price but still want a basket you can break down and take places once in a while, then I'd recommend an M-14. I've had one in my back...

    Shoulder Pain

    I've had a similar shoulder problem this year. Was really bad in the spring when I was playing every day. Took two weeks off and started playing every other day and the pain was much more manageable and actually went away for a while. I still get it a little if I play several days in a row or...

    putter warping

    Thanks for the responses. Why is this? This seems to be the consensus, but I haven't seen a reason why. Other than the obvious fact that you can't get most putters in premium plastic.

    putter warping

    When I pulled my putter (Magnet) out of my bag on the way to the course the other day I happened to notice that the disc was slightly warped and misshaped. If you lay it on a table the bottom of the disc does not touch the table all the way around, but the flight plate seems to be flat. At...

    If you have to ask... no, it's not an ace.

    Yeah my bad, should of searched before posting. Seems to be one of the most frowned upon new threads.

    Sorry I'm a noob and had a question. I guess this forum is no different than the rest on the internet, always someone lurking and waiting to be a dick.

    Is it an ace?

    So I was playing a rec round last night with a friend. I usually throw two drives when playing rec rounds at this course when it's empty so I can try different lines with different discs. So we're at #10 and I throw my first drive, nothing decent but playable. I decide to try another disc and...

    Review by swiltse in course Shore Winds DGC - White Course

    3.50 star(s) Lakeside Beautiful location on the shores of Lake Ontario in a well kept state park. The last few holes play in a field right along the banks of the lake. The entire course is well maintained with natural and gravel tees and painted stakes for tee markers. Nice variety of open and wooded...

    Review by swiltse in course Sawyer Park

    1.50 star(s) Not worth it The park is nice, but the course is really a waste of good baskets. Course it hard to navigate, even with a good map had trouble finding a couple tees and then determining where the pins were. Really overgrown on most holes, #9 didn't even seem to have a throwing lane. I know this...

    Review by swiltse in course Churchville Park

    3.00 star(s) Nice small local course Nice small course in a local park. Mixture of open and wooded holes. Easy for a beginner or someone looking for quick practice. Good variety of holes. Not usually many people playing. Course is fairly short. Tees can be hard to locate if you don't know where they...
