I know this post is a couple months old but after reading your latest comment I went back to here. I think there is a huge amount of incorrect, inexact, incomplete information being dished out by people who may be great (or at least good) disc golfers but are not trained at all in physical...

The PDGA needs to rethink the tournament structure. For starters it should rename the sections Open and Amateur. The Amateur Section would be reserved for players rated below 950 IMO. The entry fee would typically be lower for the Amateur Section. Amateurs should be able to compete for...

Somebody had a really bad round after a really bad week and just lost it?

Futile threads are not allowed on DGCR.

What? Seriously? That is what you got from the OP? First off, very few women can throw a disc 380 feet so yes, an "unknown" who could throw it that far would be of interest. Especially given that she apparently didn't warm up but just stepped up and ripped it. Second, he made it very clear that...

No there really isn't. You are either allowed to follow through or you are not. This argument is one of the silliest on this site IMHO. Essentially people are griped because a player not using a run up, has a follow through. Somewhere those same people are fussing that coffin corner punts...

It's complicated. Flight numbers are at best a guess. Two discs with identical ratings can behave very differently. Your bad experience is likely as much due to your form as it is the disc. In my experience the higher the speed of the disc the greater the chance that I have no idea where its...

He's a better player than she is, but yes, fewer options.

I don't buy all the advice out there, especially for us older guys. Our bodies simply can't do some of the stuff younger bodies can, your mileage will vary, so I take all advice with a grain of salt. I don't think there are any magic answers once you get past a certain point. I'm a huge advocate...

McBeth won the USDGC less than three weeks ago. He's been less dominant this year but he is still the best.

Ok. Got it. I misunderstood where you were going with this.

Yes. I don't disagree with any of this.

Your first question is a straw man. Naturally the 10 over is an outlier but so what? We all have to own our outliers, even Emerson Keith. And in any case no one will say you are "better" than Emerson Keith on the basis of one hole or one tournament. Your argument would make a lot more sense to...

Mine, and about 10 million other people.
