Most Holes Played in 24 Hours

[BogeyNoMore]

This whole time I didn't know we were talking about Sale.

Jeez... Glad to see that he's doing well :thmbup:

Mike Sale has done this before, but this thread was for the most recent record setter; Mike Laterreur.

Maybe we need to invest our attention into different disc golf endurance records like the most distinct holes played in 24 hours, or the most distance covered in feet.

What a crazy thing to do... The Mikes are crazy dudes

Short holes or no...

 

[elmexdela]

Were any of them drug tested before their performance?

 

[Noill]

Come on man... Jeez must you piss in every punchbowl you see.

 

[puck'n'disc5]

He's still friends with Thugnificent. That right there should tell you something.

 

[Noill]

I just might have to show him how I learned to mod a thug

Sounds like insanity, but I hope it raises $
I played 110 in a day once and thought I was going to die the next day. 3000 would literally kill me before I even made it that far.

As someone who has held this record before, the satipulation was that it needs to be a permenant course that is recognized by the governing body, so on the course list on the PDGA directory.
This is one hell of an effort, and all the props to him in the world. I know what he is going through physically. However, this sort of creates a slippery slope if we are able to play temporary courses, as we could make the course like 10' holes since no sane person would do that for a permenant course.
I'm curious if he is going through Guinness, I know the guy who beat my record with 1920 holes, did not go through Guinness, but it's still accepted as being the best at one point.

If this is true then a course behind the Original Holiday inn but new name White Oaks, in Vandenburg Village Californa would work yes it is on the PDGA website I think http://www.pdga.com/course-directory/course/white-oaks-hotel-disc-golf-course I have played this course in 2004. It took 20 minutes to play all 9 holes after finding the holes to play. They use Disc catchers but not all the Disc Catchers do not have the inner ring. The course is so short I was using a putter the whole time on the course.

The White Oaks course shows as "extinct" here at DGCR. I don't know if that is because the coruse is no longer there or the owners want it to be "private".

Discette that course is still on PDGA. I assume the owners just want it only for the Hotel Guests? It is a very short course if it still exists, like a Putting from the tee short course.

In this thread, it's been brought up that these attempts are consistently progressing toward shorter, more compact courses... and at what point is the line to be drawn? It's acknowleged that the course must be permanent, and I believe there are certain other factors that have to be met for it to qualify as a record.

What if you had a permanent, 18 hole course, where the longest hole was 43 ft, and the entire course measures 545 ft?
I just listed such a course.
It's legitimate course, designed for a specific purpose that has nothing to do with pushing this particular bar even higher.

The slope just got slipperier...

Three disc rating BNM?

*violently hurls projectile vomit on screen*

*thinks this is a great idea but not a real course that should be listed as a practice area*

*thinks that if this so-called course is not changed to a practice area that the integrity of this website is in jeopardy*

Hole 12 might be a par 1.

[Martin Dewgarita]

My indoor putting course in previous years had longer holes than this... I should have listed it.

*returns shaking finger at Bogey No More demanding he return his trusted reviewer mini for rating this so-called course 3 discs*

 

[MikeK]

From the Design Standards of the PDGA:

LENGTH: Most courses should have at least one configuration for beginners and casual recreational players that rarely averages more than 250 feet per Par 3 hole (75 meters). This works out to a maximum of 4500 ft (1350m) for an 18-hole Par 54 course or 2250 feet (675m) for a 9-hole Par 27 course. The shortest length range is 3600-4300 feet (1080-1290m) for a land constrained 18-hole Par 3 public course. No hole should effectively be shorter than about 100 feet (30m) even on courses for beginners.

 

[BogeyNoMore]

I consulted with Tim about it.
Should it be listed as an 18 hole practice area?
It's distinct from the other course on site.

Did you read my review?
My rationale is the course is good at what it's designed for. You want a normal course, play the other one.
