    Westside Westside Golf Discs Sampo Discussion

    I got a 174g VIP Sampo 8 years ago and it has been my favorite disc since then. It's a Northman with less turn and less fade. Flies similarly to the Pine, but longer. I am very afraid of losing it. The steampunk stamp is actually fantastic; I disagree with this review on that front but...

    Why are there no courses in the middle of north Georgia?

    Most portions of the country are flat, hot, cold, and/or don't have trees. Asheville is the antithesis of that, and I don't think it represents a problem—it has good course density for how inaccessible it is. The surrounding regions are underutilized, but north Georgia is the worst offender...

    Why are there no courses in the middle of north Georgia?

    Convincing is coercion. I want people who are interested in the same thing that I am, and only aren't doing it because they don't have the funds for it. I don't fit that description, but with over 14,000 courses in the world, some people do. If no one here is willing to tell me who that is, for...

    I'm not going to do that work. But I'll pay people who will. Who and where are they?

    Why are there no courses in the middle of north Georgia?

    There's a huge scarcity directly north of Atlanta. I live by the southern edge of that scarcity (by Sequoyah Park), balancing the convenience of being able to travel south for shopping in the affluent suburbs north of the city, and north for mountain running trails. Why is disc golf missing, and...

    [Dynamic] Trilogy Thinning The Herd of Plastic Blends

    I really would have preferred to have seen BT Hard and everything but Elasto disappear. I was eagerly awaiting more Elasto molds and a Megasoft Crown; I've only bought those plastics for everything except putting putters (BT Medium). It would have been nice to see Westside try out Elasto in a...

    Review by Jessy in course Dave Simpson Memorial DGC

    0.50 star(s) Not a disc golf course. Elevation changes. There is no parking lot, so cars are all over the course. The fairways ARE cars. The baskets are in parking spaces, as if they were motorcycles. Where cars don't go, kids' sports teams, and their parents watching, are. In theory, this would be a fine...

    [Westside] Seer

    Precisely. The Seer is a longer and less tight Warship. The shape of the Seer is that of a flattened Warship.

    Game Design for discs, courses

    This is an awesome example of a scoring system that would have been impractical or undesirable, due to complexity, before smartphones. Get a Quip document going, with some rule ideas, and I'll start a plan to get working on an iOS app.

    Game Design for discs, courses

    What I'm actually reexamining is whether the thing I'm suggesting is actually disc golf. Disc golf does not have a long history which would prevent it from quickly evolving due to nostalgic reasons, but it does have some standards, and does have "golf" in its name, which has more history. There...

    Game Design for discs, courses

    Definitely. You seem to have a great handle on a lot of concepts that interest me. What I recommend, is a Quip folder, where interested parties can get ideas out, and organized. Are you involved in something like that, already? I might be too much of a noob, to yield that much course design...

    Game Design for discs, courses

    It's not a matter of right or wrong. It's this sort of thing. I consider that a drawback, but a limitation of technology that we just have to deal with for now. It won't last forever; some kind portable 3D printing will probably be the next step. If the printer is smaller and lighter than a bag...

    Game Design for discs, courses

    The reason it took me more throws because discs were relatively hard for me to use. Now that I've myelinated a bunch of relevant axons, the uncertainty and hilarity that used to ensue has diminished. If I had a dial to change the myelin density, I think that would be a reasonable solution, but...
