    BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH............. why should you care even one single iota about Gateway's business practices??? we as the players get super cool looking discs (if you throw gateway plastic that is). Gateway knows what they are doing, so by you whining and crying and...

    What drivers would you guys recommend?

    you cant go wrong with the classics, Starfire, Destroyer, Teerex (for overstable), and Valkyrie(for understable). with the stuff you already have, these would give a very well rounded bag.

    loose rock(s) behind lie

    still no different, if there is a loose rock preventing solid footing it is treated the same. not all rocks are loose in a dry creek bed so one that is described above can be moved.

    loose rock(s) behind lie

    i would look on that rock the same way i look at pine cones and twigs/sticks behind the lie, they are moved to give solid footing to throw from.

    How I broke the 500 foot barrier

    that video shows a decent 400' throw, but not even close to 500'. break out the measuring tape and you will see for yourself.

    Review by TYVEK in course St. Martin's Abbey

    3.00 star(s) A fun, simple, practice course. This course very well may not be a "championship level" course by any standards, or even a challenging course to play, but there are positives that this course has to offer. Instead of trying to list off "pros" of this course, I will write about what...

    New Bag or Discs?

    if you already have a nice bag, then go with discs, or better yet a basket. either a semi portable one for the back yard or a totally portable one that you can take with you to places. another great use for disc golf money since you already have so many discs is to just set the money aside...

    Going All Innova

    if you are trying to achieve consistency in plastics, then innova/discmania is the absolute worst decision you can make. they have the worst consistency in plastics in all disc golf companies. one run of Valkyrie will be understable, and then the next run can be just like a firebird. while...

    Putts outside 30 feet

    I agree with the other person that encouraged you to look up Wysocki's putting clinic on youtube. as a push putter, the majority of the power comes from the lower body and the weight shift of your body. there will always be a bit of wrist snap right before release, but nothing like a spin...

    What do you consider a putt?

    I agree with what somebody else said about this quote, when climo was in his prime this was probably fairly accurate. Climo was no slouch when it came to putting, he was a good putter, BUT Mcbeth, Wysocki, Locastro, and a few others have surpassed what Climo used to do as far as putting...

    What do you consider a putt?

    for me, anything inside 100' is putting.

    Hitting the Ace Pot in Doubles

    but we are not talking about PDGA sanctioned doubles tournament. we are talking about weekly local random partner doubles. so both partners shoot from the tee, even if the first makes a hole in one.

    Hitting the Ace Pot in Doubles

    LOL, on a "aceable" hole, there should only be one strategy. that is go for it. if somebody lays up on that short of a hole, they are doing it wrong. any type of split of the ace money is weak! it is 100% individual accomplishment, there is no reason at all that the money...

    Hitting the Ace Pot in Doubles

    this is incorrect. the Ace pot overrides the fact that your partners disc is still in the basket. a player is NOT holed out until they remove the disc from the basket, so in reality the hole is not holed out just because your partner hit an ace until you guys get up to the basket and they...

    Putting Practice - A Methodical Approach

    Mr. Fat Guy with a beard, that sounds like very decent plan. I do something extremely similar as what you are planning, except I have 4 practice discs. There is something that I have learned from doing this a while now, that is that it became all too easy to take my regular set up time for...
