Have you seen the lead story on the PDGA web site about Super Class Discs? http://www.pdga.com
It appears the PDGA wants to encourage the use of regular old catch frisbees for disc golf. Retro disc golf I guess.
The logic the PDGA cites for this idea makes sense and I will probably give it a try; but I remember the old days of playing target golf with yard frisbees and I don't think I really want to go back.
There's a local course in my town that's probably perfect for playing with catch frisbees. OK - it would be a new challenge, but so what? Why give up the advances in disc technology the last 25 years just because the new discs make older courses easier? Is there really a problem that needs to be fixed when advanced players regularly shoot 4-5 under on a course?
Any opinions about this?
