For years, I have heard many disc golfers and a particular top course designer say tee pads are made of cement. It has bugged me repeatedly and tonight I am finally letting it out for the sake of my own sanity.
Tee pads are made of CONCRETE! Even the Grammar Girl can help you with this one.
Oops!
I never really thought about any difference before making the above banner ad.
Sure enough, I was interchanging the 2 words thinking they were synonyms. I probably used cement because it was shorter and I could make the text a wee bit larger! LOL
In hindsight, I'd do it differently, but I really don't want to go back and change it now. Can I have a pass Dave?
We have soldiers getting hurt and killed overseas and this is your main concern? Man, pick you battles more carefully.
I sniff rubber cement, does that count?

Stable means stable.....as in stable......resistant to change of position or condition; not easily moved or disturbed; maintaining equilibrium; self-restoring. In disc golf terms, minimal high-speed and low-speed fade.
You're right. I misstated that.
But is my mistake in being lazy and combining both tendencies of a disc to turn during its flight into the term "fade" really a peeve, or just nitpicking? Do lots of people mistakenly call "high speed turn", "high speed fade"? Nitpicking is a pet peeve of mine.......so I'll nitpick your post :doh:
