So it’s been 5 months since my last update and a lot has happened since. Early in June I was in a car accident that after an MRI left me with 6 herniated discs in my back and neck. I played (not well) in a tournament the following weekend and finished tied for 11th and shooting an event...

lol yeah i prefer beadless when i putt.... Pa-2's

Update #2: So I played my second MPO 40 tournament this past weekend. While my over all play was ok I still left a few out there but i managed to finish in the top 8 and tie for the final cash spot. Based on player rating i was projected to finish 13 out of 19 so I was really happy to play...

I only putt with my putters (prodigy PA-2) Im on my third year with them, one for step putts (outside the circle putting) and one for inside the circle. I only practice with these two and they have remained pretty stable so i trust them in the wind. My previous putters were Innova Rhinos...

Ok so here’s the first update. I played a my first tournament of the year (C-Tier) at my “home course” in the MO40 division. There was 8 people in the division and finished 4th overall cashing for a huge $52. My first round was really poor. My mental game was way off but I came back with a...

your going to start getting the best of both worlds from it now, distance and wind fighting. it will be a great head wind disc

Most X's need some time to work in, I carry an X and L for that reason, straight to understable with the L, hyzer and alot of forehand with the X. I like the firebirds for forehand rollers. give that X some time it will get better

I have never played the course the MPO did from the blues, its just over 9,000 feet but this year I plan on giving it a try. Yes, based on my strengths shorter technical courses fit my game better than longer open holes. I like your suggestion of moving up or down based on the course design.

Never did I expect such a detailed analysis on this thread. Thank you! That was a really good way of looking at that tournament as a whole. Yes the course we played is a shorter more technical course. I know with regards to room for improvement I don’t have the distance many of the other open...

Ive never played down in the rec level and i tend to stay local believe me if my rating gets above 900 ill gladly stay at the higher levels.

This is also part of the reason I want to push myself. I currently have the flexibility to play all the way down to Rec based on my rating. I want to challenge myself but I do know there are guys I just can’t compete with because they are that much better. I’m excited for this years challenge!!

Id say it has alot to do with where your ability lies and what your goals are. If you can still compete which in the case of disc golf we are talking guys like Barry, MJ, Feldberg PB All guys who can still compete in the open divisions and win. Personally i started out playing intermediate...

Thanks for all of your input guys, I do appreciate all of the advice and suggestions. With that being said i did talk to one of the local Pro's who is eligible to play MPO 40 because he has a good gauge on the local play His suggestion was to stick to the smaller tournaments and see how it...
