    Johnson City TN Disc Golf

    Warrior's Path is a good course too. A course just opened at Sugar Hollow park off exit 7 in Bristol, VA if you're ever in Bristol looking for a good course to play.

    Flyboy in June?

    This is good to hear. I had the pleasure of playing in a tournament there in 2010 (I think) and Kelley was an amazing host and he seems to enjoy having guests come play his course. I can completely understand not wanting to trim up that course for each twosome that wants stop by and play a...

    I have your frisbee!

    This is the only thread I have ever followed on this site. I feel an emptiness now... Platebee - Gone but not forgotten.

    Review by JimDK27 in course VHCC Wolves DGC

    3.50 star(s) Very nice new course Concrete tee pads, easily followed layout, good mix of elevation changes and hole length, very little under brush in the trees Some poison ivy but it is avoidable, the tee pads seemed a little short, some of the holes were very short and hole 4 was exceptionally bland Hole...

    Review by JimDK27 in course Eagle's Nest DGC

    2.00 star(s) Fun little course Good use of mandos to increase difficulty on some holes. Good sign posts with clear distance and hole numbering. Grass and debris was well managed. Difficulty distinguishing which baskets went with which tee pad if you hadn't played before. There are some pieces of glass...

    Just a little rant

    I like this. Keep it simple. True amateurs would play just as hard for t-shirts and discs as they would for money.

    Just a little rant

    For those that said, "play your rating." What would you advise for someone without a rating and doesn't want to pay a PDGA membership because I rarely play PDGA tournaments? I'm a very casual player that rarely plays tournaments but would like to start playing weekly doubles and last time I...

    You know you're addicted to DG when...

    ...when you play ball and disc golf and you have spent more money on disc golf than ball golf. ...when you are asked to play in a ball golf tournament and you don't want to because your were planning to play some casual disc golf somewhere else.

    n00bs and their discs

    I found a Groove once. Threw it into some big bushes one week later and wasn't sorry at all that I didn't put my info on it. I didn't look for it longer than 10 minutes before saying, "Oh darn, I guess it's gone."

    How to get that extra distance?

    That's like saying a drive with a run up isn't really a drive because you use footwork to create momentum. It takes skill to do both. They are just different techniques to achieve different results. Dead hang pull ups are ideal for strength and kipping pull ups are good for achieving a higher...

    What do you hate most?

    Did you check your bag for holes ;)

    What do you hate most?

    Litter is the top one on my list. Next is not picking up after your dog (I could care less if they are off leash as long as they don't pick up anyone's discs). Third is large groups with bad etiquette. It depends on where and what was vandalized when it comes to graffiti for me. If your...

    3 finger grip

    Started with 4, switched to 3, then back to 4, then to 2, and I think I have finally settled on 3.

    How to get that extra distance?

    If you believe this than you have taken part in classes with bad or inexperienced instructors. Crossfit is a great way to improve your body for anything that requires some athleticism. Kipping is not bad, it is just another kind of pullup unless you try to do weighted kipping pullups. Bad...

    What snacks do you eat on the course?

    That sounds delicious! Although ever since I had catfish jerky, I came to realize I probably like just about any kind of jerky :D

    What snacks do you eat on the course?

    If you didn't I would have. It was one of the first threads I responded to when I joined the site. My answers have changed so I guess I'll post what I do now in this one. I almost always carry water. Sometimes I take a Nature Valley Protein Bar that I also rarely eat. I like drinking beer...

    Merging fairways?

    They do the same thing at Victor Ashe in Knoxville. I thought it was very clever and simple the first time I learned about it.

    Disc Golf Karma?

    I have lost many discs and have only had one returned. All the discs I have found with numbers I attempted to return and only one wasn't returned because the owner had moved and told me to keep it (except one that only had a PDGA number on it and I thought it was a partial phone number because...

    Christmas Gift Ideas for a Disc Golfer?

    I always like having a clean(ish) towel on the course. I don't remember seeing that mentioned. A renewed DGCR membership.

    500 Round Challenge

    Are these 18 hole rounds or 9 hole rounds? And for the full time working family men. If you play 2 rounds a week you will have 104 rounds in a year. It also depends on the age of your kids. There are also location factors. I feel like discers in the southerns parts of the US on the coasts...
