    2011 Goals

    Win the Bowling Green Amateur Championship. Win the US AM National Championships. Win AM Worlds. I like to aim high. :hfive: 965 rated at the moment with maybe 400' of D. I have accurate BH and FH throws and reasonably accurate thumbers/rollers. I use a Nikko style pitch putt and I am...

    off center, asymetrical discs

    Geoff Bennett is also a fan of the epic and has said he has thrown an epic within the circle on his drive on hole three of the Kensington Toboggan course. While the hole is downhill, it is 915'. I think he said he threw it on a tomahawk and not a thumber and it did at least 3 full barrel...

    Need a Progress Report from experts

    I would agree with getting more comfortable throwing your mids and would recommend picking up and rolling with either a dx roc or an x comet. I prefer the x-comet due to it's glide and ability to fly straight on less than full power shots. It is a great disc for learning how to throw...

    The NEW "Forty-Two" Practice Putting Game

    Hey, I just tried this game out and while I did pretty poorly imo for my first time I really like it and hope to use it as part of my regular putting regimen. As one of those players only a few strokes away from playing regular 1000 rated golf I hope this will be helpful. Thumbs up! PS. First...

    What was your overhand disc of 2010?

    Surprised to find myself using the C-PD as my current overhand disc of choice. It has a nice slow turn similar to a firebird and it is sneaky long on thumbers.

    [Innova] Innova's new Speed 14 Driver-Innova Wahoo

    My first reaction is that you were joking, Mark, with your suggestion of the "Warp" or the "Orbit." This is mostly because Discraft already makes the Nebula. It was the 2008 ace race disc. :doh:

    Richmond Hill bashed?

    How long ago was the course redone? I played it within the last six months. Would that have been the new layout?

    [Gateway] Wizard vs Magic

    I have putted with wizards for the past two years or so of regular play and I have used them with both pitch and spin putting styles. I currently use a Nikko/Feldberg hybrid pitch putt and use the wizards. I love driving/throwing upshots both backhand (<300) and forehand (<225) with wizards...

    DD2- new disc

    They fly very nice. The P-line DD2 Frenzies are the longest disc I can throw on golf lines. To me they fly like a slightly less stable wraith. They are faster, however, and are not easy to flip when thrown on a pure hyzer with less than 400' of power. I toss my PDs around 375' and I like to...

    For anyone who uses Nikko's Putting Style

    I have putted with nikko's style and have switched to a similar but slightly more staggered stance style. He does putt with hyzer but it is not extreme and there should not be a huge amount of left/right movement in the putt. You should throw it right at the basket. What is very very...

    Suggestions for Disc elbow

    Throw with your elbow in tight to your body. Practice this by warming up your forehand with a belt around your torso and upper arm just above the elbow. This will force you to keep the elbow in and is a good drill for working on your snap/timing with the wrist extension.

    The Gospel of the PD

    Just got one of the President's Cup stamp C-PDs and it is awesome! So nice. I was really surprised to find I could consistently throw it about 20-30 ft short of my S-PDs and on a few rips get it just as far. I love how it has a bit more stability and I can throw it on a slight anhyzer and...

    Over Putting

    1: The previous poster who said you should have your index finger below the rim is correct imo. This is one tip I received from Avery Jenkins (who is a decent putter) when playing with him. It definitely leads to a cleaner release. 2: Pitch putting is easy (at least, putting with the style...
