The whole course was schule.

Hole 4 at Blue Ribbon Pines is legit. This course is not. PLINKO is not Disc Golf.

Umm, yep. This is definitely Fizzle.

No sense continuing to feed the troll guys.

Agreed. I don't know how people don't see it.

Funny, that the new Hizzle says he just started playing, yet he is asking questions about worlds ratings being down, course luck, and other questions that people don't even consider if they haven't been playing awhile.

well hes either a troll or a crying little girl who sucks at disc golf(i also suck at disc golf but i dont cry about it). i watched the whole vid and didnt see one fairway that wasnt fair. put away your blizzard boss and learn how to shape your lines. ive played a few holes i might call unfair but none of those qualify.

Not that I really want to get into this argument, but in my opinion the only hole that really looks 'plinko' to me is the second one in that video. It looks like about a 8ft. wide gap to throw through about 30ft. off the tee, or in other words a required line accuracy of < 7.59 degrees (30ft. distance, 4ft. off the line hits a tree, otherwise written as arctan 4/30). In my opinion, expecting players to be accurate to within even 10 degrees of the perfect flight line is too difficult/random.

For reference, at 30ft. distance and 10 degrees of required accuracy, the minimum tree gap to hit would be slightly more than 10.4 feet wide. At 15 degrees of required accuracy the minimum tree gap to hit at 30ft. would be ~16ft. wide.

WTF???? Why do you keep calling me this Hizzle guy?

I shot a 847 round at this Sundog, that was at Acorn park.

I am thinking about joining the PDGA. But, I want to get better so I have a better rating when I join.

I think the problem is that the OP plays frolf and is looking at a course for disc golf.
