Default DGCR Aces 2023

First FH ace ever, a 160’ Reactor flex shot on hole 17 at Orange County DGC.

Basket was blind from the tee and I didn’t hear any chains, so it took a while to realize the disc was in the basket.

I think Orange County could be my favorite short course. I played it fall of 2021, and I can still remember every hole. I was gunning for every basket for an ace, not to be had, and putting back towards the basket several times. If I hadn't hit a tree on 9, I would of landed in the parking lot, and on 16 flew right over the basket and about 100 feet past down the hill. Fun round!

Aced hole 1 at Cowan Lake Campground this morning. Promised myself it was nothing to write home about, but then I realized it's my 25th different course with an ace, so that's something!

I was lucky and did both in my first two.

Granted, they were both under 140ft, and my three since then have been all FH... but I got one!

In the basket with a single throw from the tee. Distance does not matter.

I got ace #52 on 1/19.
Hole 8 at Ottawa Park, from the red tee, here in Toledo. 233'

My first ace on something more than a very short putter toss in a few years. My last ace was on a 90' hole in March, and before that on a 140' hole in November of 2021.



This throw was a fun one... the fire alarm went off at work, so I decided to bail for a bit and play a brisk 3-disc round. Carried a Stiletto, Origin, and Deputy with me. I pushed the Stiletto out on a high right hand forehand well up into the air on a hyzer, around the left side of the tree to the left in the photo. The shot was going to finish with the wind shoving it toward the basket, and I put it out there wide enough to both think "that might be good enough to hit it" and then disabuse myself of the notion before it wound up crashing down hard into the chains.

They aren't short! They're red level appropriate.

I can just imagine searching the ground, looking for a disc, thinking,
"Looked like a pretty good shot.
Where the heck did it go?"








Congrats!
