Originally I loved it for all the reasons previously listed. Good exercise, being outside, watching myself get better. Now, it has become something much more. About a year and a half ago, I met the woman of my dreams, and she has a then 14-year old son. After getting to know him, I was...

That's a great story, thanks for sharing. Was speaking last night with a friend who has had 2 open heart surgeries in the past 10 years. We were just saying that this might be something he'd enjoy, be able to do, and even help with his condition. I'll hafta pass your story along to him...

That sounds great! When you get to the Spokane leg, let me know. Downriver and Highbridge are really great courses. The two in Kennewick, WA are also fun rounds. When you head through to MT, there are two good stops on the way through in Idaho, both are right off of I-90. Let me know before...

I played Tree Top, at the Dalles in Northern Oregon. I was a part of a road trip, but wouldn't go there as the only destination. Mostly flat, in a good sized park. Lots of trees between the basket and the tee, no real good line at the holes. It was fun, but not great. I have heard the...

Not sure how many football fans are here, but I'd use NFL quarterbacks as an example. The great quarterbacks have the ability to drop a pass over a linebacker, under the safety, and put it in a place that only their receiver can get to. Translating that example to disc golf: a finesse...

There are a lot of useful threads on here for beginners. I'd also spend half an hour watching the tutorials on youtube. That will get you started, and then feel free to ask more specific questions later. As for supplies.... Discs Acetone to wipe the stamp from the disc Something to mask the...

Depends.... Fairly straight and long, I gotta go with the Avenger in FLX. If it's pure D, I like the Surge in Z. I will throw Innova stuff, but in most cases prefer the Discraft stuff! :thmbup::):thmbup:

Innova Star Shark Discraft Elite X XS Discraft Elite X Avenger I carry about 15 discs, really need to get out and play some rounds with these 3.

I don't have the fastest arm, but picked up a Nuke last month. I have found that I have to start it on an anny line, but when thrown well, it out-drives my longest by 40 feet or so. I am no where near comfortable enough with it to use as my go to driver. But if the fairway is wide open, and...

I am chacer94's playing partner, and he is getting better, very quickly. I love that he is branching out, looking for other tips and advise. His putting has drastically changed in the past 2 months, and he is on the right path. His putting stroke is confident, and he is throwing putts to make...

Daniel, get in and start dyeing! You'll make some mistakes, but looking through these threads, you'll see even most of the mistakes come out pretty cool! Start simple, one color and not many cuts, but you'll learn....and get hooked! I'm certainly no pro, but have done about 20...if you have...

Got my nuke in the mail 8 days ago....exactly the same day i picked up this stupid respiratory virus. Still, snuck out and field threw it yesterday. So far, I really like it. It is my farthest flying disc, and still getting used to the very wide rim. Out of about 10 throws, 4 of them weren't...

#13 at Highbridge in Spokane. 225 ft, buzzzz, that weaved perfect through the only path to the basket. Knew it was gonna be close as soon as I let it go....they've totally revamped the hole now, though.

Very nice! My first were very basic too....I am hooked, you will be soon (if not already) too! Keep up the good work

Thanks for the flashback guys...totally forgot about MST3K as a subject for dying! Off to work I go!
