As many others have stated - if you have the course reserved then you can make the rules. If you don't , then they have as much of a right to be there as you. Either way, being courteous is the way to go. If you're a D-bag, it'll come back around to you at some point.

It's all too common for people to be obsessively competitive. When these people play, they're not focused on the fun, they're focused on the WIN. Winning is the thrill. Winning is success. Losing means you are less of a competitor than your opponent. The majority of the time that people...

Wait, why does Michael Jordan need my money? Or was that Michael Jackson? Or maybe the hippies need more weed at the tournament? Ugh, what MJ are you referring to?!?!! :confused: Ok... no, but the title was confusing. Last on my list of guesses was Michael Johansen of Denver, NC (no...

You must be looking at the forum from a phone or something similar. Otherwise the whole topic line should be visible.

What happened is you just realized it's time to sell

Because everyone was so nice with their suggestions, I thought I'd throw up an update. In the past month: My average throw has increased from 150' to 210'. Max distance has increased from 200' to 270'. Main items learned: Throwing the disc level makes a huge difference. All of my throws are...

I honestly don't think the cone is unattractive, but the lid on top of it sure is. Yuck. That said, chains are not attractive either. I certainly was not drawn into the game because of the disc catchers. The only beautiful things in this game are the discs, bags and courses.

I've tried searching the forums, but I can't find the definition for what a "chucker" is. What is a chucker? Is it someone who throws recklessly? Also, it would be nice if the newbie forums had a definitions page. Thanks!

Womens lacrosse doesn't allow contact. Mens is pretty contact heavy.

Have to admit when I first told my wife that there are professional disc golfers she looked at me like I must be lying. In the end disc golf is played directly for money, so it's far easier to become a professional at it than many games, including lacrosse. For example - the number of people...

Yup, they're out there. Most of the population of Utah lives where it's pretty cold though. Scorpions only become more common when you get closer to Arizona. I've never seen one outside of southern Utah personally.

Even more, that 8' would require falling down, which people won't do. Realistically, it'll only stretch the 4' into 6' as people lean in. That's a small sacrifice to get rid of a rule complication.

Yuck. Not sure what's worse - ticks or scorpions. I guess I'm lucky to live in a place where neither are prevalent.

Agreed.... but mostly because measuring out 10-meters is ridiculous. Where simplification can occur, it probably should.
