Nastiest DG Injury?

[Peterb]

My buddy was putting (from outside 10m) the other day at golden gate park, and apparently he stumbled on the landing onto a stump that wasn't cleanly cut. He shredded his lower leg to the bone, blood spurting everywhere. Took 40 or so stitches to sew him up.

time for helmets and pads to make it to the disc golf scene.... just wait till parents here about how dangerous our sport has become

I think the only thing that will trump that would be a fatality.

What if you defecated on yourself without dying afterward?

I got a thorn in my finger once.

I played with a guy that broke his back while playing disc golf... Of course he broke he because he fell out of a tree while trying to retrieve a disc.

did he make the putt?

Nice, welcome back, we've missed you. More importantly, did he foot fault on his putt?

A guy broke his leg with bone sticking out while practice driving on an icy tee at the first tourney I played. He got a rod in his shin now.

I missed you too.

 

[BrotherDave]

I missed you too.

Sooo, does this mean you were resurrected?

 

[colodiscgolfer]

did he make the putt?

exactly what I was wondering!

I see my friend spontaneously combust about every other week.

Here's the video...

he did NOT make the putt. But, can you blame the guy? I mean, that's his BONE showing right there. Nasty.

Brody Miller broke his leg throwing a jump putt at the Beaver State Fling this year. I wasnt there but everyone said it sounded like a broomstick!

I do not like this thread. A big reason I got so into DG was because I tore my ACL playing soccer pretty soon after I started DG, and DG was pretty much the only sport I could still play. I actually was out on the course once I could get around okay with only one crutch. So I don't want to hear about all these DG injuries- I thought this was one sport where my legs were safe!

That being said, I will still check this thread for more nasty injuries.

i heard of a broken arm from a guy throwing a thumber. Youch...

How in the world did that happen?

Wow, that's pretty damn bad.
