So I went out for a round on Sunday with a few friends, and someone brought along someone who had never played before. Of course theey turn to me, and I pull out a couple of my extra discs and set this guy up. He immediately rubbed me the wrong way when he said, "Just give me whatever, I'm good at everything, I'll pick it up."
ooooookay...
So 1st tee I give this dude the quick and dirty and try to get him to take no steps, and start with his back facing the hole and just pull it through...instead he does this goofy inside-out forehand type throw, the likes of which I had never seen and his disc goes straight up about 200 feet and then lands 50 feet in front of him.
This is how the hole day went for this guy adn every time I tried to drop a little nugget, it was like he completely ignored it and didn't humor me. Now I'm not the best in the world, but I was driving about 325 yesterday and throwing it pretty straight. I don't think this guy had a throw more than 150 feet...but he did he a 20 foot putt on the second to last hole that he talked about the entire last hole and walk to the cars...
Sheesh!
Any other noob horror stories?
