1. You can't tell the difference between 72 and 77% effort. Enough of the false precision. 2. Knowing what good form really is. Practice.

There's nothing to find that isn't already covered.

I think that if your hobby is "bag building" then you are terribly easily entertained. This is something like a bird collecting shiny bits of trash, trying to decide whether to put the gum foil underneath or beside the scorpion earring. Or trying to figure which dresses go with the redheaded...

It's certainly nice that little baby discs are there to protect us from scheming double-marking sons-of-mothers. Where do people come up with this hogwash? If anyone wanted to steal a few inches here or there it could be easily done, with or without a marker. Whooooo cares? I've never once...

Agreed. My brain cannot find the reasoning behind handing out money for a serendipitous occurance. My brain is pretty pitiful, so maybe I'm missing something. How about a dollar for hitting a particular tree? How about a dollar for a hitting trash can? How about a dollar for a good roll? How...

Every last one.

In my own case, I never broke 350' as a rated player and topped out at 968 before losing interest in paying membership fees. I'm a much better putter now than then, but still keep it under 400' most of the time. Everyone has their own skills. This question has no answer. Player ratings cannot...

No this setup is not ok. Will never work. Goodness. Why does everyone need so stinking much reassurance? Go throw. If the discs don't travel through the air you may have a problem. Otherwise, enjoy!

I've played the best courses out there with one disc, both casually and in competition, and never once felt tortured. The disc you choose isn't very important, though some courses play better with a particular style of disc. The keys to having fun with one-disc play are realizing your...

...unless you're smart.

Whatever I feel like getting to know. Have won a couple of tournaments with a single disc, Buzz once and Firebird once. Played probably a dozen events with one disc, usually a Buzz or dx Gator.

I wouldn't dream of giving advice to this crowd, sweet baby, and I don't think condescension a strong enough word. Try repugnance.

Sparks have a reputation all out of proportion to their actual uniqueness. There are two dozen discs that will fly much like a Spark on a thumber line. The longest thumbers I've seen were thrown with freak Enforcers and Nuke OSs.

The disc is panning quickly because of nose angle and release angle, not grip. Try to throw a more over the top arm slot, leaning your body to the left if needed to reduce shoulder discomfort. If that isn't possible, throw the fastest, most overstable disc you can find.

I've thrown perhaps three dozen Grooves, and have found them no more stable than the average Destroyer. I don't throw terribly hard, but for my arm speed I would average them at 4/-1/2
