There isn't much anyone can do to stop the "image" of recreational dgers, except taking courses out of public parks and making them all private pay to play. I don't think that will grow the number of players or the competitive pool though. The general public doesn't even know there are competitive disc golfers, touring pros, or a PDGA. I didn't even know there were disc golf tournaments until I had played 2 years or so.

All I will say to this is, LOL. Not worth arguing with you.

When I was competing it was the norm to see the guys I was playing with bust out a bag of meth and snort lines right in front of me. This happened at Morley all the time, had it happened at Huntington Beach, DeLa Veaga and oak grove also. Morley was the worst and most likely still is. What kills me is that it is a pay to play course so something needs to be done about it. The thing is, if they tried to stop the problem at Morley then more than 1/2 of the courses business would be gone. The owner won't let that happen.

I see that you play with all the rocs...kc, dx, roc3 and star.....what do you think is the difference between these? and when do you use them?
and why is the shark3 gonna take the star rocs place?

[The Hammer]

During the Memorial at Vista; what disc and shot do you throw on hole12 (the dam hole)? That hole gives me fits.

I knew he answered this somewhat and I wasn't going to look for long to find this, but it was on the 3rd page.

That's crazy, it sounds like it's your area that has a massive problem. I'd move or call in the marines.

the shark3 is a bit faster and more predictable then the star roc. i prefer flatter mid ranges and the shark3 is that.
