    flattening a disc

    If I buy a used disc, I have no idea whether its been played with, thrown against a wall, filled with boiling water, left out in the sun by accident, or left out in the sun on purpose. If it appears to have no holes or cracks, and if it doesn't seem to have been modified (stuff glued to it, cut...

    Chains Disc Golf Documentary Fundraiser!!!

    Just pledged my ten bucks. I think it's great to have a chance to help support this project.

    Made shot or no?

    It would be nice to have Chuck's input as well, as I'm also curious about grabbing the disc while its still swinging.

    Made shot or no?

    Regarding the picture - Why would the white disc be considered in, but not the yellow? It looks like the white is hanging from an internal eyelet/hook, not a chain link. I don't see how it is any more or less supported by the chains than the yellow which is hanging from an outer eyelet/hook.

    Made shot or no?

    I played in a tournament (match play), and a weird thing happened. My opponent's putt hit the the number plate on top of the basket, then slid back so it was hanging off the prongs the the chains are attached to. It sat there, swinging back and forth - and the chains were still swinging back...

    Which DVD should I buy from this list ??

    I feel I should add that the 2010 Am Worlds DVD is a complete waste of time. It broke my heart how bad that DVD was. Seriously. My heart is broken. There's almost no actual tournament coverage, and about 10% of the entire DVD is an interview with some family about their homeschooling and...

    Grip Pressure/Arm Speed

    When I first read that, I thought it was some sort of cheesy inuendo ... and I'm still not entirely sure it isn't.

    2011 Rule Changes

    Was the wedgie rule so problematic that it had to be revamped? I thought it was cool that you could get a birdie or ace in such a quirky way. I've only ever seen one ace like that, and I play on a pitch and putt course. Does this happen elsewhere? I thought that "hanging from the basket or...

    The first DG BluRay disc is available and free videos

    I'm planning on buying some soon. The problem is that I'm a computer idiot, and I have some nervousness about doing this. Honestly, have you considered having someone in North America (Marshall Street/Prime/ GGGT) burn some discs for sale in the online stores? Maybe it's not feasible - just...

    Dude winning ladies' event

    I think that it's not unreasonable for the individual in question to play in the women's division - who wouldn't want to play in the group with which they identify themselves (it's not like this person has a great rating). It gets trickier when the individual wins cash or prizes - one might...

    Where does 10M start?

    I worked hard at learning to properly and legally execute a jump putt (or substitute some other legal shot, such as a thumber), and I'd like to see my practice rewarded, and not taken away with an unfair advantage given to people who prefer not to jump putt (or substitute some other legal shot...

    Where does 10M start?

    Actually, I do a step-through putt, it is pretty easy to see that I let it go before my supporting point lifts off (I should have mentioned that before).

    Where does 10M start?

    Yeah, and they should get rid of overhands and rollers, too - they look silly and some people are better at them than others. Straddle putts too - I think Kallstrom and Schultz look ridiculous, and they make too many of them. I'm just being bitchy, because I am more comfortable with a jump...

    Are overhands a major factor in your game?

    I've started throwing thumbers a lot more, and I've seen my distance and accuracy improve. I've been noticing lately, though, that they seem to let me down (slip out, or throw too low) when I really need them to work (deuce-or-die hole in a tourney), and it's been frustrating the hell out of...

    Swedish Steel

    I thought that maybe it was my a malfunction on my computer (watching w/o sound). While my preference would have been for less stuttering etc., I'm grateful that you took the time to record and post the footage. I've heard of how hockey players will try to get out of a slump by watching a...
