do you play for money?

[jmdaire27]

I recently moved up to play "open," as a "local pro," to make cash as a "semi-pro." I forget where we landed on that whole deal. I don't play for the cash, just don't care to take home any more "merch," and can generally compete locally if I can avoid the tourney jitters.

Also play in various local leagues for a handful of dollars. I generally make the cash, and win every now and again. I am a competitor, and play to win, but I find enjoyment out of it. But also enjoy just getting out with the local community and friends.

I typically just try to keep my "league wallet" full, where I don't need to go get cash to go play. Been cycling some dollars for a couple years, so I don't do it for profit.

A guy that moved into my area a few years ago said he doesn't enjoy playing unless it's for money.
Honestly, I feel sorry for him.

More fun and definitely more pressure than playing for money is playing butts up. In our doubles games years back, the losers would have to get butts up, which entailed bending over a stump with your legs spread. The winning team then get to throw a disc at you from 75' ??? or thereabouts. So for losing, one of winners would get to fire one disc at you. I tell you, it was a few seconds of sheer terror wondering whether the disc was going to slam in the back of your calf or your Achilles or bounce up into your face. In retrospect, you seldom got hit but it was a huge relief when the disc went sailing by and crashed into the brush behind you.

ALL the players at the course thought we were fricking insane but it certainly raised the intensity of our games. And I was playing with my son and his two buddies who were all high school varsity baseball players at the time and all three would fire their tomahawks at me. I seldom hit anyone with my standard issue RHBH throw.

Whatever makes it more fun for you.

Pretty sure it was Lloyd Weema who said...

Whoever has the most fun, wins.

Pardon me but your (pink) slip is showing.

My wife and I always joke about rolling up to a course blind, while course bagging, and challenging a pair of locals to $10 doubles match. We're not ultra competitive; however she's deceptively consistent and I'm not exactly a slouch. I think people might take the bait if we ever muster up the courage.

 

[BogeyNoMore]

I'm a least a notch or two above slouch.

I'm always tempted to ask people when I run into someone at the course, I never get asked so I never ask, what are your experiences with playing for cash?

It's a great way to earn lunch money.

"Back 9 for pinks? C'mon wuss!"

Haven't read the thread, just responding to the original question.

No.

I could probably be convinced to put 5 or 10 bucks on a round but anything more complicated than that I steer away from. I shy away from ace pots because I've never gotten one, but I have pitched occasionally when meeting locals and being invited to join them

I play for fresh air and exercise and sometimes it's fun and once in a great while I'll even get a 2 on an easy hole, so playing for cash is out of the question.

I miss the old days when the loser was banished from the disc golf course forever, possibly even the entire state and was forced to climb the nearest mountain while wearing nothing but a Salient Helix bag.

"Don't sell yourself short Judge, you're a tremendous slouch."

 

[The Shide]

I haven't done it in the past for the reason about not having the cash to spare.
But now, I think I might like to start doing it, but only on courses I know well.

I'd be happy to play if someone wants to pay me to do it.

 

[Sewer bill]

I play for whatever I have in my wallet or cup holder. Up 3 bucks as of yesterday.

 

[foxdawg10]

When I was playing more tourneys, yes I would play practice rounds for a buck or 2. It helped me keep the focus and edge.
