People love giving you shit for all those fast drivers! You're so anti-minimalist! For all of you who have never seen him play, his lines look remarkably similar with a lot of his different discs. My guess is after he's played longer he's going to know what he likes and probably narrow it down. If you guys have never seen 16 at Cliff Stevens, a safe play is still more dangerous than the risky route on most water holes. I have had stretches where I don't get comfortable with any D driver for weeks because I keep throwing them in that damn lake.

Elm Creek Maple Grove, MN BRAND NEW!
first 3 holes are not put in do to letting the ground settle in for the year. but this is what i would throw for the first 3 holes since i was nosey and wanted to see.

This was a nice comparison of what you saw in that park and what I normally throw. Elm Creek is my new home course and I like to see what others play as it gauges how similar or different my game is. All feet are approximately based upon my faulty long term memory.

1. Wizard (270 down hill)
2. Z Surge SS (375 level)
3. Z Surge SS (360 uphill)
4. Z Flick (Forehand) (280 hard right turn)
5. Shockwave (410 two right turns)
6. Champ Boss (360 across the top of the hill, turning a shot will send it all the way down)
7. Z Drone (260 down hill)
8. Z Surge SS (380 level except last 20 feet which rises 20 feet)
9. Z Surge (360 easy slope downhill, plays like 330)
10. Champ XCaliber (380, hard left turn then bottlenecks before opening back up at basket)
11. Star Boss (420 level)
12. Champ Monarch for long turnovers (if I have spotters) or hyzer bomb Z Force where I can see it. (380, first 200 feet bottlenecks slight downhill, it forces a straight or slight turn if thrown level, or a high hyzer bomb to clear the trees on right but you need to make sure you do not crash deep into the trees on the left).
13. Champ XCaliber (330 slight uphill, short but dense trees on right, thick shrubbery on left)
14. Star Boss (770 I think - wide open, slight downhill to begin, moderate uphill to end. Weeds on both sides of narrow fairway are waist high, making finding a disc nearly impossible.)
15. Wizard (190-220 slight downhill between two mature trees)
16. Champ XCaliber (350 moderate uphill requiring a little fade at end to avoid guardian line of trees on backside of basket)
17. Z Stalker (350 moderate downhill. Several patches of maturing trees on fairway. Dense forest on right. Waist high weeds on left and behind basket.)
18. Champ Boss (810, first 250 slight down hill, last 300-350 moderate to steep uphill)

I know that is a lot of molds but Elm Creek is deceptively wide open. There are a lot of long holes where you get it into your mind that you can simply bomb every throw. Precision on these 370-420 feet holes are key because the shrubbery and weeds are brutal. I have already lost three discs and a pair of prescription glasses there. I carry a lot of different molds in my bag but each one has a purpose and I am very confident with each one of them.

Now if I could ever learn how to putt...

[Trey1331]

Playing Winthrop Gold

1. Freshy 11x Roc, play the S skip towards the hole.
2. Road Runner, play the roller, hope you don't mess up / Teebird towards the fence on the second throw and stay away from the parking lot
3. Buttery straight sanny roc, out towards the right, let it glide all day
4. Get lucky with a wraith to the right of the first grouping of trees, / Test your sidearm skills with a Xcaliber to skip into the green around the mando
5. Flippy Teebird past the first row of tree's on the right / Wraith down the gut straight with slight fade towards the water / Fresh wraith for the bomb over the water (hyzer line all day)
6. Fresh Wraith bombed over the HGT tent, or Buttery wraith taken on the inside of the tree's (watch out for the skip).
7. Firebird thrown to the right, with little to no hyzer, let that thing get over the bamboo on its own
8. Roc placement shot all day, aim it towards the tree line and throw a controlled turnover that can hold the right into the ground (rhbh) / Xcal sidearm over the huge tree laying in the fairway
9. Roc to the in bounds beside the baseball field / Teebird over the OB skipping hopefully in bounds beside the basket (or just in bounds i'll take what I can get)
10. I don't have the D, so Roc safely to the in bounds on the left / Spike star roc into the green area (again hopefully, i'm not as skilled as the pro's... this hole got my goat).
11. Placement teebird over the bushes on the right spiking in to the in bounds before the OB rope gets REALLY tight. / Sidearm Xcal hopefully into the next in bounds area of play
12. BOMB a wraith flirting with OB and the haybales all the way until it hits ground / swallow pride and play the safe next play into in bounds rather than going for the 450 uphill shot to the green / spike hyzer with a roc or firebird into the green
13. Safe Star roc down the gun hyzering in bounds hopefully (you almost can't control this) / Sidearm xcal to the next landing zone for the thirds shot / Spike Hyzer with a Xcal or Wraith hopefully somewhere close to the green for the putt
14. Xcal all day, Keep it super low and try to make it skip before the pin as much as possible to alleviate the huge downhill flare it will take if it skips at pin or after pin
15. (one of the toughest holes IMO) Teebird straight down the pipe (or roc if you don't feel like messing up hard) / Flare shot with firebird to make a harder turn and set up for the upshot
16. (my favorite hole) Roc for the WIN! Anhyzer that thing out and pick a slightly more stable roc so that it fights back enough not to go OB and gets that extra distance, Jump putt for the DEUCE!
17. (pray) Swallow your pride and play to the right with either a putter or a flippy roc (I had to use both)
18. Flippy Teebird thrown towards the tree's, let it flip right and hope that it flattens out before hitting ground to prevent the roll away / Safe Roc or aviar at the top of the hill before you start looking down at the water, Lay up to the basket (unless you're Dave Feldberg).

Congrats, you just shot par on Winthrop Gold
