1) Have fun, b/c the most fun still wins.
2) Keep the wife happy. (Just got married on 10-30-2010)
3) Field practice at least once a week after the snow melts.
4) Practice putting as much as possible in the backyard.
5) Visit at least 5 new (to me) courses, hopefully out of state. Flip City & Lemon Lake, I'm comin' your way this year!

Win the Bowling Green Amateur Championship.
Win the US AM National Championships.
Win AM Worlds.
I like to aim high. :hfive:
965 rated at the moment with maybe 400' of D. I have accurate BH and FH throws and reasonably accurate thumbers/rollers. I use a Nikko style pitch putt and I am working on my putting like crazy this winter.
2011 should be a fun year.
Also, I live in Charlotte so I get lots of practice on challenging courses and get to see/use lots of different types of shots. There are lots of great players in the area to play with as well which awesome. I moved down here from Chicago and the quality of courses/players is mind-blowing by comparison. Also...winter golf. 50 and sunny out today...YAY!

Agreed – staying healthy and balancing disc golf with family are tied for goal #1.
Secondary goals:
Settle on a putting style and improve consistency. Putting makes everything else easier.
Settle on a driving style and improve consistency (are you noticing a theme yet?)
Play a few local tournaments, and average > 900 round ratings. I played my first tournament last year and had a blast, even though my second round was pretty horrid.
Take a few disc golf road trips. Time for DG is limited, but I should be able to squeeze in two or three day trips over the course of a year, hitting a couple of new courses on each trip.
Distance goals, looking for consistent averages rather than fluke throws. I'm getting close on everything except distance drivers.
Putters to 240'
Mids to 270'
Fairways to 300'
Distance drivers to 350'
One of my big goals is to actually play a course in the state where I live! I've played in West Virginia, Kentucky, and Virginia, and will be playing in Florida over Christmas, but I've never actually played a round in Ohio.
My other goals:
-Throw a sub-par round at Armco Park.
-Throw a sub-par round at Rotary Park.
-Play at least five courses on my wishlist.
-Play in at least one tournament.
-Increase my accurate distance. I can muscle a Leopard beyond 325', but I have no idea where it will be going with any certainty.

My goal is to put on the most kick ass women's tourney in the east (not even gonna mess with Texas).
Things are coming together slowly, a couple of bumps in the road to get over but I am hopeful things will go well. I want to start a tradition with this as it seems all the tradition in the sport is drying up.
For me, being more consistent and staying healthy. No more arm injuries!! Means I will have to pick and choose my tournament participation wisely but I still want to throw a few. If I can put my crap in the proverbial sock I can throw some 950 rated rounds...big jump over my 834.
For Christy, get her back on the wagon. Employment has taken her from an over 800 rating skilled player back to low 700s. Hopefully we can find a happy medium and get her playing 750 golf.
