Which UDisc Scoring Method do you use most?

[hendryxdisc]

For casual rounds or any round involving libations and recreation I usually just keep a mental track of my score and the card. I use Udisc for solo practice rounds and will keep score & C1X, if playing league or doubles I use score only.

If I'm playing a solo round I'll use the map tracking usually. If I'm playing with a group I'll keep track of the distances in my head and then do full stats after I finish out the round. I definitely LOVE the map tracking. Being able to just zoom and peck and get it recorded is awesome. One of my biggest pet peeves with UDisc for a long time was the way that it recorded all 11-22 foot putts as 16 footers, all 22-33 as 27 footers, etc. If my finger peck misses the appropriate distance I'll undo-redo to get the right distance input. I really love getting accurate distances on putts into my record.

I use birdie beads.. Haha if I'm playing solo I usually play one colour or set of discs against another and then just keep track of which one is winning

First time I've heard of them. I looked them up. Cool idea, as long as you don't get more than +18...

I do full stats for myself for every round I play. If I am just playing with one other person I will do full stats for them but I generally just do full stats for myself and scores for everybody else.

Is anybody actually getting usable data out of the map mode. I tried it for a few weeks but it seemed kinda useless. There wasn't a way to compile the data and get something useful out of it. Plus if the baskets aren't in the correct positions then I think you were kinda screwed. Maybe I used it wrong but I couldn't get much out of it.

I wondered that about the basket locations. I have one course I play a lot that always seems to have at least a couple of basket locations that don't match the UDisc setup.

I use U-disc for my score only on every round, solo or not. The other 2 guys that I play with regularly keep their own score mentally, like they are even, 1 under, 2 over par etc., but I can't do that, it's easier for me just using my U-disc app. I like saving my scores to reflect back on.

Yeah they are all right.. My worry is that I don't get more than that down. Though I think my beads are 12 and 12 so I'd need -25 or plus 25 to be an issue.

"I gotta get back on the beads man!!!" Haha.

I play mostly deuce or die courses round here.. But often I'm a close to par player on the long courses with tragedies.. Maybe 8-10 above.

I tried map scoring for the first time today. I didn't really enjoy that. It just seemed to be a distraction. I think I prefer to just to score only after completing the hole. Maybe save the full scoring and the map scoring for the times when I'm doing casual solo practice rounds.

 

[ThrowaEnvy]

I'm somewhat opposed to my cell phone while discing, it's the only break I get from it.

That said used Udisc for a tournament and it sure made it easy figuring out where I was going and who I was with. No one had to grab the card for starters haha

 

[wims]

I rarely track my numbers, I just chuck discs while trying to have a good time

I wondered that about the basket locations. I have one course I play a lot that always seems to have at least a couple of basket locations that don't match the UDisc setup.

This is hopefully now fixed with the new update. Doesn't work perfect to me yet but its better.

 

[Graymulligan]

Score only, because I can do that from my watch and don't need to pull my phone out during the round.

 

[magictenor1]

I don't use udisc at all. After a round I write my score down on paper and put it in the scorebook here. Quick score

 

[wolfhaley]

I use the basic score deal when I play a course that's not on DGCR. I've only scored 7 rounds ever on Udisc. All of them were courses I added later and Sugaree.

 

[CrowLegs]

I use UDisc on my watch to enter scores only. If I had to get the phone out each time, I'd just keep it in my head. The watch is not a problem at all, even for a reasonably-sized group.

It might be nice to have all the shot tracking, but I'm never going to keep up with that...
