    DGCR Aces 2013!!!

    I hit my first ever ace this past Friday, the 18th. The weather was awesome, so I had to leave a little early from work to get a few holes in. #3 Shawnee Park, about 280' with a 168 Champion Leopard. Luckily there was a group of 4 playing right in front of me. Perfect line that was looking...

    What Bags Are Out There

    Fast forward....I didn't get a bag 6 months ago, but I have asked "Santa"/wife sponsership to bring me either a Hyzerbomb Atomic or a Gorilla Boy Silverback. Both bags seem to similar and was wondering if anyone has experience with both to offer an opinion on which one to get. They both appear...

    What Bags Are Out There

    I'm going to buy a new bag to replace my starter bag sometime in the next few weeks. I'm curious what's out there. I've done some research and found a few I like, or that I think I like, and want to know what else is out there that I may be missing. Revolution - Carolina Hyzerbomb - Atomic...

    Shoe deals?

    If you're talking just bang for buck...I'd say Tredz @ Academy $14.99. I bought some just because they were so cheap....used them for mowing the lawn http://www.academy.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_10051_39839_-1?color=White%2fRoyal%2fBlack&N=610945419

    North American Places With The Least Disc Golf

    I just took a look at my zipcode and found we have 67 courses within 100 miles...also in TX. How does this rank?

    #@&%*! Wind

    I'm definitely NOT at a point where the wind doesn't affect my game. I was having to layup on puts outside of 20 feet for fear it would end up 50 feet away. I saw discs bounce and fly 30-40 backwards, then roll another 50 back (luckily not mine). The most stable disc I have in my bag...

    #@&%*! Wind

    Wow, wind really makes things so much more difficult out there. I started playing yesterday in 5-10mph winds. By the time we reached the 9th hole the wind was whipping at about 25-30mph with gusts up to 40-50. I tried to hyzer around a tree on the 18th hole and the wind picked up the disc 30...

    WHY is it so addictive??

    I think it's just like ball golf in some ways. In ball golf a great shot will keep you coming back. In disc golf, my one month of playing, a great throw keeps me thinking and wanting to get back out to the course. I hope it continues for more than a year

    so much for that comment. Went out again during lunch and lost a disc to a pond. The wind was whipping pretty good and I was throwing 2-3 discs per hole (both mids on the drive, and the Leopard on the long holes). My Buzzz was going perfectly flat over the pond (about 180ft to clear) and then...

    I couldn't resist the urge to go check out a place who has a decent selection of plastic. I left with a star Leopard 175, star Teebird 171 , Pro kc Aviar 175, and an edge wedge 139 for the little one who likes to go with me sometimes. This has to be one of the cheapest hobbies I've been around...

    I was throwing the NukeSS in the vid I posted into the heavy wind. I'm sure I don't throw it hard enough as it and the Avenger both will give me a nice S curve if I put a little anhyzer on them. The Nuke in the vid dipped to the right on its own before coming back. I'm going to work on...

    Noob Looking for Help

    My putter release was mostly flat on the first 2 attempts, and they flew flat for about 80-100 feet, then turned over quickly straight to the ground. The throws felt pretty good, and I was trying to snap like slamming a yo-yo like I had watched in a video. The next 2 I tried throwing with a...

    Ha, I watched some discraft videos last night watched some chick talking about how to win before you start, and the proper warm up. I did a little P90x warmup right before the first tee.

    Went out and threw some at the local park near the office. I was getting about 250 ft. or so out of the Z buzz and Star Roc, but I seem to reach for the Buzzz more often as it just feels good in the hand. I'm going to have to work on throwing the putters for distance. Both of the putters in...
