I played 4 days straight for about 10 hours a day in 90+ degree heat this last week on vacation. I felt sick after that, kind of naucious and weak and sore to my bones. Ive been chilling out in central air relaxing since then and I feel good now.
People living in the Northeast US, do not go out and play in this heat wave. The UV index along with the temps are way to high to try and play. I know because I played yesterday (July 5th) at 2pm with it being 94F outside.
The first hour was fine but after that it was all downhill. Between not being able to stop sweating and not being able to throw a disc effectively, it was a total waste of time and a risk to my health. Trust me.. anyone who lives in the NE US is not conditioned for this weather, especially go out and play disc golf. Luckily I put sun block on and had 2 liters of water with me.
The real problem came about on the 24th hole (Joseph Davis SP) when I over gripped locked my ESP Avenger SS (BH) and ripped it into the woods to the right. About 40 minutes later I found it but I was totally shot phyically due to the heat/sun exposure. The super thick hedgerows of JD didn't help either but I came home with a major headache and feeling completely drained. I realize that looking for my disc was risky and dumb due to the heat along with playing a 27 hole course.
Be careful out there. If you must play, bring extra water and be prepared to stop and/or play a shorter round.
One time I was having a mole removed. They had me scheduled for general anesthesia, but my abject fear of loss of control made me demand to the doctor that I get a local only. He insisted on some goofballs (Valium, I think) to help out, as well, so I acquiesced to this minor level of dulling.
Anyway, I lay there kinda chilling, but nowhere near out of it, as the nurses started to prep the area. I guess they thought I was all the way under, because they had a nice long conversation about my multiply-pierced junk & a debate as to the potential pros/cons in the bedroom.
I listened for a while, trying like a maniac to control my laughter and not get turgid (thinking about Buddy Hackett accomplishes both goals) and, after any sharp objects were out of the killing zone, I did my best Undertaker impression, sitting up abruptly & saying something to the effect of, "Ladies, there's only one way to resolve this debate. You (*points at groin*), then you (*points at groin*)." You've never seen two more shocked faces in your life. I poker-faced for a couple of seconds, then busted out in drug-fueled laughter, to be joined in relief by the nurses.
Then I screwed 'em both stupid, roundhouse kicked the doctor, ripped the questionable mole out with a pair of foreceps, and thumbed a ride home, still wearing the assless hospital gown.
(OK, that last paragraph didn't really happen.)
My thermometer read 102 for most of the trip to league at J-Park in NY......... it dropped a few degrees in the last couple miles to the park.
