Do you "nice" to be nice?

[GT Chris]

If I deem you a good judge of shots, I have no problem with 'nice shot.' If I deem you a poor judge of shots, then it'll start to bother me at some point or another. The point here is that I don't like when people call one of my mediocre or bad shots a nice shot. It isn't a nice shot, so please quit calling it as such. This is where the judging comes in, because it ultimately comes down to whether or not *I* think it's a nice shot.

And don't get me started on the difference between nice shots and nice results.

Damn, after reading how ass hurt some people get when told 'nice shot' I might have to say this more often.

I personally just say it if I thought the shot was nice-- I personally don't give a flying **** if me saying it bothered someone, because they're literally retarded to get upset over someone complimenting their shot (even if it wasn't a great shot).

 

[jfrosty42]

If I say nice it's because they either just threw a good shot, and it's still looking good, or they threw a nice shot.

Nice. Sweet. Good pull. That shot was the bees knees.

Amazing how friendly a sport disc golf is.

Regardless of whether or not you're actually competing with your group, people always seem to be rooting for you to drain your shot. I know I do and I always find myself saying "Nice shot!" or "Nice run!" whenever someone on my card makes what appears at first to be a sweet throw. I probably say it too much, but it's just a habit I can't seem to shake. Haven't played with anyone yet that found my enthusiastic awe objectionable.

I have a book on golf etiquette. Page 1 says that the most important rule is to never comment on, or even react to, another player's shot until you see that player's reaction to their own shot.

well the spectators don't follow suit at PGA events on that one.. "GET IN THE HOLE" WOOOOO!

Boom!

I just say boom. Boom! You hit a nice drive. Boom! You hit a nice put. Boom! You hit a tree...... Boom! You suck. Most often it's a friendly and relaxed atmosphere on the course and I find myself talkin smack to someone I just met. Isn't there a " don't nice me bro" guy that puts out utube dg videos?

I only say "nice" when something goes completely wrong on someones shot. Like botching a ten footer or grip locking 90 degrees. Also I only say this with people I know fairly well. When I compliment a shot I tend to say good or great. The people that I play with seem to view "nice shot" as more of a smug remark.

 

[Uncle Matt]

I do it to be mean. Just because it usually means it will end up hitting a tree.

hits that ONE iron leaf that totally redirects the shot

I have to admit, I laugh every time someone talks about the iron leaf, simply because I've hit my fair share of iron leaves. :thmbup:

I think it's funny how often it seems to have an affect on the flight of a disc

I thought you really meant it when I was VERY green to the sport and you would "nice" my disc..... Just kiddin'.

I say nice only to people I kinda know how good they play. When they make a shot that is above average for them ( what i think how good they play ) i say nice.

When anyone makes a shot I could not make I say nice every time.

Excactly
