Discraft Inc. - What Can I Do There?

[Craton]

I'm going to be driving trough Wixom, MI next week, and realized that Discraft Inc. is in that city.

Does anyone know if they have anything set up for the public, or is their facility strictly industrial? Any shop or unsecured garbage bins of misprints?

I'm not positive, but I *think* you can call in and schedule a tour of the factory.

Idk about plastic finds, but I bet if you can take a tour, they'll have some for sale there.

Plan on tossin at all?

And sorry for the rain. In the summer the bay doors are open and one can see boxes. Is that better

 

[Craton]

Haha, maybe on the tossing. I won't have much time on our way down to Cleveland for Turkey Day- but I was going to be driving through (I'm up in Indian River) so I was just thinking it could have been fun- I'd like even more to find a great shop between here and Toledo, OH that is anywhere as great as GottaGoGottaThrow was back in the cities for selection/price.

If you stop by, ask them why they gave up on the Nebula, then after they answer kick them in the gonads and say, "that was for BrotherDave, hater! DGCR 4 lyfe!!!"

I got his back!^^^:thmbup: I need my ESP Wasps too!!

 

[bcr123psu]

If they're churning out ESP Wasps for WorldsCoolestGuy, be a chap and have them make me a dozen CryZtal Wasps in yellow and red, if you wouldn't mind. And maybe a gonad kick just for S&G.

 

[Not again]

and while you are there I believe there are many who would like to give a kick to the 'nads for not making more ESP Comets! :hfive:

 

[bcr123psu]

Sounds like somebody at Discraft isn't going to be able to reproduce after your visit.

 

[RoundWounds]

Pretty sure you'll have a nice 'kick to the nads' list for people wanting OOP discs!

 

[TheWCG]

Sounds like I need to personally smooth talk Discraft...

The throw shop in yspsi would be your best bet.

 

[Disc Golf Live]

Throw shop is mostly closed this time of year, only open for a few hours each week so timing would be important.

Say Hi to Mark Ellis for me. He lives in the basement, storage room B I think.

 

[AJ_86]

See if you can get them to see you a bunch of Nebulas or some OOPs they have laying around.

You could get a nice haul of discs, if they have some around in a box somewhere.

I've sent a message to Discraft and warned them to wear nut cups for the next few days
