The Official 'Ask Paul McBeth' Thread

[PMcBeth]

I've never thrown an Aviar in my life in all honesty. I have been throwing clutches, before that magnets, and before that Wizards. I'll buy a few maybe and perhaps i'll be a convert. Roc3 from everything i've been hearing is going to be pretty much the disc i've wanted for a long time. Is it going to come out in McPro also, or just champion?

I started with aviars moved to magnets then back to aviars so it really wasn't much of a switch for me. A bit more stability but still the same kind of glide and distance

Paul,

Did you take any OB's at The Memorial last year?

 

[notroman]

He definitely did. You can see some on the coverage of the Memorial on DGPlanet.

I think everyone that's near the top at the Memorial has OB strokes to deal with. You have to play somewhat aggressive to win there and that brings the water into play a lot more than safe play.

Paul,

Yes but I believe less then 5 but they were all pretty much in round 3

I've noticed you wearing the super tight fit under armour. Is that just a leftover comfort thing from baseball or do you feel like it gives you a competitive advantage. I'm undecided as to how I feel about it from my experience.

Looking back on them, how many were bad luck?

I used to wear them in baseball if you ever see me or pictures you can see the scaring and damage on the bottom of my forearms. It really just transfered over to disc golf as a warmth factor.

Most OB are bad shots I dont think any of them were bad luck..... I know my final hole 18 at fountain hills I tried to intentionally throw OB by the basket so I had a easy lay up 4 but got.lucky and it stayed in bounds.

Congrats on the world title!

I see you are located in Huntington Beach. My sister just recently moved there for a job opportunity. I will probably visit her a few times through out the year. What are your recommendations on courses I should try while in the area? Thanks...

I wouldnt say I like it more than my destroyer it has a nice place between my destroyers amd teebirds.... It has the glide that can make it go just as far as my destroyers but has a straighter flight and will not flip and roll for me.
