I just went gonzo w/ xmas $ so I'm still in trial mode on a few molds but: driver: flx avenger ss mid: z buzzz putter: magic (seriously, it's awesome) ooooh....sick.

If I can be so bold as to plug my favorite gadget (I don't work for the company or sell the gadgets) - check out the igolf neo. It's made for ball-golf, but the beauty part is it will let you mark each hole/tee (and a few hazards etc-per hole!) for yourself. There's no monthly fee required, and...

on the topic of fade bags (love the acronym btw)- I just got my crunch box, and it looks sweet- deceptively large size. It doesn't look that big but carries plenty (including 4 cans + the water bottle pouch- which fits my 32oz nalgene). I only have 8 discs right now, but it looks like it can do...

I don't use slingshots or anything cause I don't have the skills, but if you do, go for it. here are some good ideas i've heard/used: full nalgene bottle lacrosse ball (either on its own, or drilled through with a light gauge rope tied - useful for getting the ball itself back, and or...

just jumped in and ordered a crunch box (blueberry) - as my first bag! I'll be sure to post a review back here soon (I'm sure it'll be great!)

Today for the 1st time I tried the "fork grip" with the thumb and forefinger pinched as kind of a pivot point (i think Climo calls it the rip point?) - so during release the disc gets flung around that point for even more spin. seemed to work for more D, but need to get used to it a little more.

so, after 5 rounds with the monarch, (being the only 5 rounds i've ever played, and my only long-range driver) I also got some good shots - but have had a hard time taming the monarch. (just ordered a x-out valk though, haven't tried that mold yet- looking forward to it!)

I'm still working out my tommy-monarch technique & distance but... the other day I discovered my champ aviar p&a (thanks, Brian!) makes a nice consistent 120' tomahawk shot. It goes up, rolls over and drops like a bomb on its top. The most predictable one I've found out of my 6 discs :p

Another vote for "keep em coming!" (not to tell you how to run your show, but I bet you'd get more orders if you had any kind of ballpark-tiered pricing structure posted). I'll order one when I'm confident enough in my skills to not lose it!

woodpecker- that's a great story! I got an innova dx beginner set (I told my sister in law I wanted to pick up the game of DG...before I got myself a roc & monarch. shh...) :)

tough to tell how far from "shore" the disc is, but have you thought about: tent poles (lots and lots of tent poles) golf ball retriever (mine's called something like "gotcha" and has a spring-loaded top - goes from 19" to 10 feet) or a long rope with weights (depending on how narrow the pond...

picked up a monarch as my 1st driver, looking forward to giving it a workout! My rental version was really flying nice...can't wait!

ok, so a quick follow-up to both of my questions (I found out the answers) 1) the course was in great condition, the drainage was better organized than I thought, so even the parts that looked like they should be soggy following a bunch of rain - weren't. 2) I posted in the suggestions forum...

Ok, so I'm new to the sport and played my first round ever last sunday at La Mirada. It was great. My reason for the thread is 2 fold, and thought it'd be good to have a thread specifically for this course. 1) How does the course hold up after rain? (we've been getting dumped on for the past...

would someone mind giving me a range of temps that would classify as "cold weather"? I'm heading to St Louis over the next 2 weeks, expecting a dx/pro d/whamo(?!?) beginner set for christmas, hoping to get to play w/o shattering discs. Might be too windy/rainy anyway, but here's hoping *also...
