Fantastic. Played a very windy Lincoln Ridge. Missed far too many birdie putts. Three-putted my way to 3 double bogeys. Finished 5 over. But, I put my first shot of the day into the basket. I went 8 seasons without acing a hole, with many near misses. Finally getting my first ace may be the...
Im curious, and lack a solid knowledge of the rules. What if op's friend placed a second marker a foot or 2 behind the first and putted from there? Could he then continue to putt as he always does?
I have to chime in on this one. Hofbrau is great, depending on when you show up. Its the only place I know of where you can drink liters of beer while enjoying a summer evening. All the beers are pretty good. Just dont go if its friday or saturday night. When the preppie bars downtown...
I can't speak for anyone else but it's a confidence factor for me. I know I can hit a 7-step putt 90% of the time. I know from 7 to 10 steps I drop to about 80% and the numbers drop from there. So looking at a 13-step putt, I have confidence knowing I've made the putt before and I can sink it...
I use my own pace to measure my practice putts. Ill take 3 steps from the basket turn and sink the putt. Then Ill take 4, and continue to add a step each putt till I hit 15. If I miss I start over. During rounds I judge the distance in steps, a 7-step or a 12-step putt for example. I can...
I can't speak for all the land that the 6 holes will encompass, but I know that there is a clearing, slightly downhill, barely edging left with a 30-40ft opening at the end thats begging to be a fairway. Its as if it was anointed by the disc gods themselves.
The national forecast is for seasonal highs in nearly every major city in the U.S. this week. I know many on this site have been braving the cold and snow anyway. But with the first real warmup of the year on the way, I'm sure those who've shied away from harsh conditions will be out in force...
Context is definitely key. When approaching, I'll never refer to the physical basket as "the hole." My friends and I use "chains" more than anything else. I'd bet that it's mostly regional dialects that causes one term to be used over another.
Yeah, you can get off at exit 182 on I-75 N and take KY 18 east towards banklick (lincoln ridge), but its a 14 mi 30+ min drive. It's quicker and easier to hop back on the interstate. I love both these courses, but they dont quite fit this thread
I'm looking to buy something like this lightweight, waterproof trail runners. But I am also very intrigued by THESE. Given the price on both though, I'll stick with a cheapie pair of cross trainers from the local discount shoe store. As long as they're comfortable and the sole doesn't break...
HA! At a round here last year, I saw some kids larping star wars on the fallen tree over the creek. Full costumes, minus the vader facemask, whacking each other with lightsabers. Freaking hilarious.
I dont mean to offend any larpers here, but thats about a 10 ft fall onto bare rock.
Damn straight! It soars forever if the wind is right/nonexistent. It's also is my primary escape disc for when I turn over my beast. I won't tomahawk any of my normal weight discs for fear of hurting my shoulder again.
The first disc I ever bought, a 171 star TL; a multi-toned orange and yellow plastic I haven't seen elsewhere. It was the disc I learned with, and my only disc for the first 3 years I played. Eventually I assembled a bag, but if I NEEDED a shot I was puling out my TL. I was hunting my first...
Shameless plug for a product offered at my local disc shop
It's just surgical tubing with a loop on the end to grasp. That said it's a great to warm up before I leave for a round, especially now that the temperature dropped around 50*.
