That's the thing-if you want to just think of DG as a recreational activity, and go out and throw 300' max smacking random trees along the way, you can. Go have fun.
Or you can watch 50 sidewinder videos and try to fathom the complex aerodynamics and body mechanics involved when someone as diminutive as Paige smashes a disc 500'.
Or try your best to understand how Simon, Eagle and others can get that piece of plastic to go 650', seemingly as effortless as your grunt and expletive laden 300' drives.
Or watch as James Conrad runs 30' full speed sideways and pipes one 450' through a gap you couldn't shoot an arrow through.
Or watch Paul and Ricky or these days Gannon and Isaac drain more 50' putts than they miss.
THEN you realize yeah, this IS a sport.
So many good points!! :clap:
