DG Vocab List - Fun or Catchy Terms

[weeman]

Princess Lay-up - for when you put your up shot under the basket instead of running at it like a man.

 

[steady1]

"Bounced off the skirt." Low shot deflected off the basket

 

[WOTI]

Don't know if this one has been said yet but we have the "River Otter." That is when your shot or putt lands on its dome and slides down a snow or ice covered hill away from the basket.

One guy gets up and throws his aviar and lands 60 feet out, another guy throws his challengar and lands 55 feet out...the last guy gets up and throws his wizard and parks it within 15 feet.

the first two just got wizzed on = ) (heard it here first =)

or if you park a wizard, you wizzed on that hole!

What is Prerube up to nowadays anyway?

Welcome the wonderful DGCR, where the "search" feature is more important to most than their disc golf game. And everyone here can throw 500 ft.+ so get to practicing.

Has it gone down to 500??? I thought it used to be 600 and only 1000 rated pros were on here

 

[codyroberts18]

You may be right. I've been out of the loop for a while

 

[WTanner]

... look at the salient guy NOT helping in any way.

Noob Question Thread

this contains a TON of helpful answers. I will dig up the other thread specific to terms, also.

edit: Disc Golf Terms

Thanks, I will look through those.

Here are the discussions that confused me: 1 ; 2

 

[B3NDER]

I avoid reddit, we already have enough 'geniuses' around here to weed through.

I hope you find what you're looking for

 

[chevis]

don't forget the search feature doesn't hit the landfill. You may miss out on some entertaining gems, but you likely won't learn anything there.

My favorite terms:

Treebound-when your disc hits a tree and deflects in the direction of the basket/ fairway
Treenied- When you are aiming for that tight little gap but hit the tree instead
Treejected- When your disc hits a tree and the trajectory changes to "right into the ground" and fast
Treedo- Disc golf mulligan (must hit a tree to use one)

I throw a lot of treemendous shots.

 

[chevis]

disc stops in the grass under the basket: "caught in the pubes" or the "pubes caught that one"

 

[roggenb3]

My favorite terms:

Treebound-when your disc hits a tree and deflects in the direction of the basket/ fairway
Treenied- When you are aiming for that tight little gap but hit the tree instead
Treejected- When your disc hits a tree and the trajectory changes to "right into the ground" and fast
Treedo- Disc golf mulligan (must hit a tree to use one)

The two tree-words I use the most are treedirected (redirected by a tree), and ambiguitree (a tree hit that neither helped nor hurt your shot).

 

[Toro71]

We call that the 4Wheel Drive... No chains required.

cross-eyed and chainless

 

[Snailpowered]

Didnt read all of the posts but one that I use on the ball golf course and the disc golf course is The Monica Lewinsky - All Lip No Hole
-Its when the disc hits the top of the lower basket and rides along the top ring and shoots off to the side or hits every part of the basket but some how doesnt stay in.

My middle name is Terrence, but I could swear the T stands for tree. :doh:

 

[BMFNT]

Cart Golf - When my dubs partner and I drive our discs to the same spot.

 

[BMFNT]

When someone's shot ends up in or near the basket even though the shot looked bad, say "Not everyone plays it that way!"

 

[AndyJB]

My recent favorite is "making minis" when two discs land and are touching or, even better, one on top of the other.
