I've got getting to the course down to a science. Discs? - check; water? - check; remember to put clothes on today - check; car accident on the way there? - usually not. It's all down-hill from there though.
Put the same throw on 2 discs of the same mold. Both have equal speed and spin out of your hand;the disc with more dings/drag will translate that into more understability. Same reason headwinds turn discs over - your dragging through more air particles/unit of time.
Or I'm completely wrong.
It will be difficult to reproduce all three of these lines with the same disc. The first shot looks like it needs to be a hyzer flip with an understable disc that will carry straight the majority of the flight then finish right. The other two are even longer stable or hyzer shots.
If I had...
Overall course par vs your total score is a good way to judge how you did overall, but looking at pars hole- by- hole as you play is helpful too, especially in a competitive situation.
On hypothetical course x:
Hole 1 is a 270 ft tight tunnel shot. The woods around the tunnel are dense, so an...
Fairway looks too tight for much of an anny. I'd either try my luck with low firebird forehand, hoping to skip it to the green, or throw a putter to that rock and hope there was a putting lane. Alternatively, soft forehand- roller with a condor might find the green.
Today I learned that you should keep a roll of toilet paper in your trunk in case you end up on a course that doesn't have any facilities available or close by, and a situation arises.
I also learned that it can be a long walk to find a spot in the woods that isn't anywhere near the actual...
How wide is the OB line? If it were as wide as a disc and a disc landed only on it, even though that disc is only on the OB line, it's OB because the OB line is OB.
If the OB line were 1 inch wide, and a disc landed on the line and the OB area past it, it's OB.
Now, shave only a fraction of...
If someone was laying on their back or side- with no advancement (bodypart) beyond the back of the marker - I would consider the prone position "balanced".
Gonna have to work on fade- away, fall- down backwards, stradle putts.
2 bosses (Champ, Pro)
2 wraiths (both Star- different degrees of "beat")
3 rocs (San Marino, KC Pro, DX)
2 cros (Star, DX)
4 wizards (all super-soft)
Misc single discs
I wouldn't consider any of these multiple discs "back-ups" for the others, though they could function as such is one was lost...
I switch for the seasons, but my thought process is opposite: I usually putt with stiffer wizards. In the winter I switch to a softer warlock because I find that stiff discs often feel slippery in the cold. Probably a mix of stiff fingers and the mind linking cold plastic to wet plastic...
A few people have mentioned the cro. I find that star and dx cros give a good, straight line for a couple hundred feet then fade a bit. (I generally throw relatively low, fast line shots). I had an r-pro cro that held that straight line longer and faded even less. Haven't seen many of them...
