    [Recommend] Understable Fairway - Reliable Turn w/out Burn

    I'm not tying to be a smart ass or anything but, my river is pretty flippy now and I still can use it for every shot but hyzer. I just adjust the amount of hyzer on it and I can get anything from a tunnel shot to a roller. I'd try an opto in heavier weight or even a champ leo.

    Champion Mamba

    I have a weird one or it is from being beat to death since it came out. My Mamba on a hyzer would go straight for a bit, pop up and then it would push HARD right. After going right for a bit it would basically straighten out, fly dead straight forward for the rest of it's flight and never...

    no aces after 4 years of playing

    Sometimes I'll toss extra on short holes when no one is waiting but, I would never consider a second+ shot an Ace. To me an Ace is walking up and your first shot goes in. I would feel like I am cheating myself. Imagine if someone sat at a short Par3 hole on a golf course with a bucket of balls...

    no aces after 4 years of playing

    I got my first ace after about the same amount of time. It was the day after the Ace Race using one of the disc's they handed out. I have a friend who has around 8 aces and is equal to me overall in skill and time playing. He even got a lucky skip ace in the ace race. The best player of our...

    [Westside] Harp - Kannel

    I use spikes and xd's and judging by the measurement numbers this thing looks a lot like it might be a great OS partner to the spike. The height and depth numbers all seem to be very close. I can't seem to find a single picture of it from a side profile view though. Apparently the places that...

    Post a cool disc golf photo

    Yeah, I see a lot of "shorts" people that you would never see anywhere. It must be Michigan thing, the instant it gets warm out everyone has shorts on.

    Follow up to woman hit in face

    probably not, and even more so I bet the disc golf course was not there first either.

    Follow up to woman hit in face

    As a disc golfer from a pretty well established state for the sport, I think we have a duty to maintain or better the sport. There have been childish, as expected generic posts to this thread. It is kind of gross. These are the things we face when trying to build the sport. It goes along with...

    Post a cool disc golf photo

    I can't speak for disc golf tournaments but, I've ran lots of races and the fog always does add a little something at the starting line. When you're up that early, getting ready for hours before hand, warming up, going through your game plan, getting prepared, etc. I imagine it's a similar feeling.

    Post a cool disc golf photo

    That's awesome, I was only brave enough to play one round here in Michigan with our record smashing snow fall/cold. I'll have to get the pic of my buddy landing a shot on the outside of the basket. I guess you would call it the "nipple", where the side wall of the basket is folded over and...

    [Other] Useless Class/Speed Discs

    This was my thought also when I heard about the skeeter. If they don't sell even with a fancy new plastic then that should be a pretty good barometer of future sales potential. Maybe some discs are popular in certain areas but, with just innova alone I can think of probably a dozen discs...

    [Discraft] Discraft Big Z Collection

    The Buzzz looks great but, I don't get to excited about stamps that never last long anyway. I usually end up wiping the stamps off with parts cleaner when they start looking bad. I'm more interested in what the "unique big z plastic blend" is like?

    [Discraft] did they change the mantis?

    Mine flew along the lines of my old dx eagle, slightly OS. The ace race blend of ti was bad though, it couldn't even take the basket hits that day from ace race distances with out big dings and gashes. We did have some bright green, pink, blue, and orange colors to select though. These have...

    [DGA] DGA's new disc, the Torrent.

    There is no set rules on disc speed so they should just market a fairway driver as a speed 20. It would be the first time that the majority of people buying high speed discs actually get a boost in distance from discing down. They would probably fly off the shelves.
