Congrats on the aces. I've had 2 aces on the same hole with the same disc, but it was a few weeks apart (can't recall, but one of them might not even have had any witnesses). You musta been STOKED after that one. I seem to be in an ace drought lately, but at least my consistency is really...
I've never had that problem with a Roc unless it was getting beat, and I drive em over 300' fairly often. Thrown properly, it goes pretty much dead straight with a bit of fade at the end. Throw it too much nose up and you get a shorter throw and more fade/dive at the end. That said, I'm also...
A real "good old days" thread should include talk about made up courses with trees and fire hydrants as targets. Nowadays they have special disc golf reserves where they send you if they see you playing just anywhere.
While this is one way to get the effect you want, I think you could argue equally for having a roc and a stratus as even a newish roc doesn't do a bad job on straight shots (unless they are so short you should use a putter). Or a Roc and an Aero and you could just flick the roc instead of...
A house on 47 acres for $300k? Wow. Around here you'd be looking at at least a couple million.Almost worth buying and then renting out and save it for a retirement property. What's the house like?
Ssshhhh. Don't tell them about the Aero. It's a secret disc from the distant past who's straightness should not be known to the general public.
That said, I'll use an Aero, Roc or Eclipse most usually or I might take a chance on my strange Archangel that, despite it's HSS rating appears to be...
We're ok for plastic overall - there is at least one e-tailer in Fla that ships here and even with shipping it's cheap enough. A few locals keep a trunk full of discs to sell.
As to courses, there's a fair bit of variety, but not a lot of big arm courses. Within an hour drive of my house...
The thing is, if you have what you call a noodle arm, you should really mostly stick to lower speed discs as the higher speed discs won't perform the way they should until you get the technique to throw them. By the way, the best thing in the world for me was to start throwing rocs regularly as...
What we need is something like DGR, but keeps being updated and adding reviews. I really liked their system and it became useful when you had more than 10 people commenting on a disc as you could get a feel for what kind of player was having what kind of results for each disc and in each type...
I've always wanted to order from there, but under shipping policies:
"At this time we do not offer shipping to Canada or to any country other than the United States."
The real tough thing for us here in BC is that it seems there's a not very efficient distribution system. Markups are crazy...
I carry about a litre in my bag. However, it's lost the little thinger that tightens the draw string so I've lost a couple of bottles in the last few weeks. Need..... new.... system.....
Steve's from Cortes Island (in between Vancouver Island and the mainland of British Columbia). Myself, I'm from Courtenay, which is on Vancouver Island. The Disc Golf community in this area is pretty small, so you know almost all of the players from Nanaimo on North and probably most from...

Very interesting course
This course has a great variety of types of hole, from a few fairly open 250' aceable par 3s up to the monster 690' par 5 tunnel at 14. Uphill holes, downhill, wooded, open, tight fairways lined with woods, this course has a lot of different types of play. Each T area...
Congrats to local boy Steve Mawdsley on winning Advanced Grandmasters this year! If any of you are ever grouped up with him at a tourney, he's a great guy and quite representative of the kind of quality person you'll meet in the Gulf Islands. Quite inspirational for the rest of us to see...

It's listed as 403' (first hole). The second shot was around 80' (I think?). Due to the layout of the trees (very wooded area) this isn't an easy hole for RHBH throwers, but LHBH you can do a few tricks to get you in for a bird fairly...
I like em an almost always keep one in my bag, but I find that the really beat ones are good for nothing but rollers - they need to be in reasonable shape to just take a turnover and still fade back. I've been throwing them since mid 80's or so. Like them for tight fairways as long as I don't...
Yep, was a neat trip and my first night in a snow cave, but we'd have got more skiing done if we'd just brought a tent. Took about 3 hours to dig the snow cave.
Whatever floats yer boat. You can call it the very first bird anyone's had on the hole and I'll call it the very first Eagle. If you are every in the area I'll guide you around the course. I might even be able to find the only guy to get below par on this course by your criteria to come along...
