Went up 2 to 852. Not even close to my goal of 880 by end of the year. Maybe I'll get close. Not enough tournaments left though.
Playing your rating Isn't sandbagging, my friend.
I've noticed that I too play better when playing against people of my skill level. Some tournaments though, especially around here, everyone In MA2 is 870 or lower. So I get to stroke my ego with a decent finish In MA2

Man, the Am Worlds ratings changed when they became official. I assumed Lions (4) was way high & Kaposia (6) way low, but really how were they that far off???
880 -> 877
858 -> 843
856 -> 855
1007 -> 921 (-86! -- Lions)
892 -> 866 (-26! -- The Valley)
737 -> 856 (+119! -- Kaposia)

Most likely...they were incorrectly entered for the unofficial results. Not intentionally of course, but it's a fairly complicated process to assign the proper course to each round across multiple divisions and multiple rounds, particularly if pools are shuffled together midway through the tournament.
The official report had all the correct course assignments, so the official ratings are correct.

At what rating would you consider someone a "good" player?

Apparently there's some glitch in the software that causes round ratings to go out of whack after the "shuffle" of the Advanced Men's pools. The shuffle occurred after the 3rd round, and it's the last three rounds that were significantly off.

Went up 3 points, was hoping to go up more cause i threw a couple hot rounds 3 weeks ago but they didn't go in this time.

Up 2 to 969, looking forward to the next one though. Should be a healthy jump with my last four rounds averaging 990.

Tomorrow is the day....
and I will most likely continue my roller coaster year by going back down a bit. I'm guessing 862-865.

I think I broke 910. Had a string of 920 + rounds and got my first win at the last tourney I hit. WOOT!
I am expecting another bump! Had a 10 point jump last update to a 920, and should have 7 rounds going in on this update:
914
924
944
945
947
961
967
Cant wait to see what it bumps me too now! Hopefully all those rounds actually go in!

i'm expecting a small drop. we shall see what happens.
Personally I've always thought of a 1000-rated player as a great player. Someone who is good enough that they can beat even the Mcbeths and Climos when they're on fire. With that said, even a good advanced player (950+) will feel like a champion at the local course 97 times out of 100 they go there if they're basing their skills off what other people do... since the average player is probably anywhere from as low as 500 to 600 all the way up to 900.
My answer is that a 1000-rated player is a pretty good disc golfer.
As for the PDGA update, I don't think I'm gonna squeak in this time as my only rated rounds were last weekend. Next update, I think I'm going up about 10 points which will be nice. Almost to the elusive 900!

i think pretty much any able bodied male can play 970 or so golf with decent early instruction and practice habits and a decent mental game- going beyond that begins to require natural aptitude- so i am going to say 970+.
I am guessing that only 2 rounds will go on.... probably staying right at 910.

I was thinking that this might happen, being that they are doing maintenance tomorrow. opcorn:
