    2019 United States Disc Golf Championship Oct 2-5

    When you played on the weekday you mentioned was it crowded? I don't know if I can make the trip this year, but for future planning I'd love to play the tournament set-up without being "in the way". Thanks for the answers!...sounds like it's do-able, but to make sure and verify before making...

    [Question] Your Max Distance Driver

    OP here. I read back through this a week ago, and listening to all the recommendations I bought a few new discs to try out. Also, determined to get more distance I bought the lightest one I could find in each mold...in the past I always wanted to go light, but inevitable bought in the...

    USDGC coverage

    The price is right! I personally loved the coverage. I followed the leaderboard and watched the clips as they were posted...felt pretty close to "being in the moment". Then watched the edited YouTube videos the next day, and even though I knew the result I still really enjoyed it. Hearing...

    [Question] Your Max Distance Driver

    OP here. Thanks for all the responses. Nice to see a lot of the site regulars are under 400' like myself. I was getting shamed by the first wave of posts all saying over 400'. I feel like I have the physical tools to get there, but piss poor form haha...one day maybe. Also, after all this...

    Fort Gordon - Marine/Navy Course

    Thanks for the link! I didn't do quite as good as those guys. I played the 20 hole layout and was +7. I played it on Saturday, and the course is a BEAST! Haha. I don't quite have the arm for it, but it was a blast. Very good challenge. Tons of variety, and lots of terrain. If you do play...

    Fort Gordon - Marine/Navy Course

    http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=8824 Has anyone played this course? It's one of the courses for Worlds this year if I'm not mistaken. I know it's pretty new, and there are no reviews yet. I'm planning on taking a trip down this weekend to play. Anyone have a quick review they...

    [Question] Your Max Distance Driver

    So what disc do you reach for on a wide open hole with no wind? How far do you expect to throw? How are you throwing? For me it's: Super beat-in star destroyer 325'-350' RHBH, slight turnover.

    General age, location, and occupation of players?

    Cool idea OP! 33 Athens, GA Husband, dad to two young boys, and senior manufacturing project engineer. I like my job...get to design and build custom equipment for a manufacturing plant...just wish I could slip out to play disc golf more often...maybe when the boys are older it can be our...

    Putter round disc selection

    Opto pure for me! I have a few of them, so I can get extra practice in during putter rounds.

    The 2017 Memorial Presented by Discraft

    I think the card showed excellent judgment. What if it played out the other way? It was a close finish between Simon and Paul, and the extra stroke(s) Simon would have had if they ruled he missed the mando would have tainted the finish. I agree that Simon should have known better and not...

    Par Talk

    Disc golf par is easier than ball golf par. I honestly don't see the problem, and I'm definitely not in favor of par 2 as a concept. Can someone smarter than me please create a poll? I'd be curious to see what the general DCGR public would vote. Something like "are you in favor of easy par...

    Is 36 down okay? What should par be?

    I think it's cool to experiment with different baskets, and would be interested to see if it makes a difference on where certain players rank on the leaderboard. Obviously the scores will be higher, and might even get disc golf par closer to ball golf par. However, to me part of the appeal of...

    Is 36 down okay? What should par be?

    http://golf.about.com/od/historyofgolf/f/holesize.htm Interesting article on the size of a ball golf hole. Pretty arbitrary haha... I'm guessing here, but disc golf is probably set on the basket dimensions. There are so many courses that changing seems impossible.

    Is 36 down okay? What should par be?

    You make some good points. I totally agree that disc golf can be made more challenging, and some courses used for major tournaments should be more challenging. But there has to be a limit. I have to respectfully disagree when you say "Disc golf isn't easier or harder than Ball Golf". I stand...

    Is 36 down okay? What should par be?

    I'm just stating my opinion, and trying to poke a fun at the seriousness of this conversation a little too. I respect your opinion, but disagree that making par harder for disc golf matters much. Ball and disc golf are just different...and that's ok. Bot are great sports. I played ball...

    Is 36 down okay? What should par be?

    Here is the article from the OP. https://www.dgpt.com/news/par-vs-expect I agree completely with the last sentence in the article. "The key to thinking this is okay is understanding why it is happening and accepting it. 36 down to win a disc golf tournament is about right. And that’s okay...

    Is 36 down okay? What should par be?

    If the best player wins then who cares? No one cares about disc golf looking "silly"...except maybe a handful of weirdos online hehe. Personally I think -36 is great...birdies are fun! Heaven forbid something be fun.
