I'm 49. I used to play Ball Golf and was a legit 1-3 handicap, not bad but compared to the really good guys I sucked.
I found Disc Golf this year and play mostly on a really tight, wooded, technical course.
I'm playing mostly with a couple of Buzzz and a couple of putters and scoring in the mid to low 60's. I'm still developing my drive so I'm relatively short but I can throw it far enough to handle most courses that aren't super long. I had some Ultimate experience so I can throw a disc backhand and sidearm and throw Hyzers and Anhyzers.
I watch group after group of expert level players throw as hard as they can off of every tee. Then I hear them at the putting area discuss their poor scores.
So here's the question:
Do you need to throw with power always to develop enough confidence to eventually bust out some low scores?
Or is this like Ball Golf where everybody tries to hit it long and very few people can?
Just curious,
