What are your expectations?

I have been playing for a long time and it seems age robs me of distance as form, new technique and better discs increases it. But, I am expecting to manage the course. With a shorter arm, to compete, I need to play smart and maximize what my arm and the course give me. I step to the shot seeing the shape of the shot needed and the landing spot expected. I really do have expectations of hitting that spot most of the time. Does not always happen, but that was not the question.

I expect the new mcpro will solve the release point issue I have with my wizard/magic. Fan of p/a hated the plstic

All expectations are dashed after switching hands. Went from throwing end zone to goal post right-handed, forehand and back and a thumber that went 270' and growing, to a left-handed backhand that goes on average 210'... and it's not pretty. I expect I'll keep trying. I do find myself daydreaming of having the option of throwing either with equality. My left handed forehand is hilarious, though.... Half the problem is I can't keep a straight face because I know I must look afflicted. What would people be golfing for, if not fun? I realize I don't want to know.

I expect to make my next shot of the round my best executed and smartest one thus far.

That's all I expect of myself during the round


After the round, I expect to look back on time well spent.

I was thinking about this the other day. It wasnt that long ago(sept 2011) where a 6 or 7 over at reedy creek was a good round but now if I dont shoot under I am extrely disappointed and I expect myself to shoot well under par.

I find myself upset on any course(except maybe renny gold or somthing) where I dont end up near par or under. Most of my expectations have grown as my putting got better. I used to be worried about the simplest of putts but now I find myself expecting to make everything 20' and in(not that I do) and I get upset when I miss one that close.

I just hope I can look back next year and say wow my game has improved even more. We will see how things progress

I agree. I usually get around par or under par most of the courses I play. However, I never expect to do well. Enjoying myself is the most important part. If I do happen to play well, that's just an added bonus.

Still expecting to find the magical discs that lets me throw 400'+ and sink 30'+ putts. Until then I'll keep trying to have fun.

For me pushing myself and getting better is where the fun is. I am extremely laid back when I play but under the surface I am really focused and intent on getting better.

I expect to do better every time I go out to the course and enjoy myself. Disc golf has been a godsend for me.

Sorry but I'm gonna get a little sappy. My best friend introduced me to disc golf right after my grandmother passed away and everything was incredibly stressful. Disc golf became a release and a way to take a break. I pick up my bag and trade it for the weight of the world on my shoulders.

So when I'm out on the course, I expect to enjoy it. I expect myself to keep that in mind. I expect a break from the world, so that afterwards I can jump back in rejuvenated.
