    You folks choose my next putter.

    I tend to putt with Berg inside of ~10 feet and Pure further out. One of the many reasons to love the Berg is precisely that it doesn't feel deep. Do try also using it for short drives, floaty upshots, straight upshots and such, both forehand and backhand.

    You folks choose my next putter.

    Maiden and Shaman are shallow.

    2024 USDGC / TPWDGC

    Three Finns in the top 12 ain't too bad.

    MVP Open 2024

    Dang weird American customs. So if somebody wanted to boo him, it wouldn't work?

    MVP Open 2024

    Why was Gossage being booed all the time?

    I started dividing up all their discs into ~4 tiers from "must carry" to "order on demand", but realized I'm not actually qualified to say what will really sell, nor what the masses actually want. So, here are some random inputs from a sub-300' thrower who: * Only has one KP mold in his primary...

    Do y'all ever dream about disc golf?

    Why yes, I do have disc golf-related dreams that I remember maybe once or twice a month on average, I say related because they almost never involve me throwing, and only a little more often involve anyone else throwing. Typically they involve one or both of two things: 1. I arrive at a place...

    2024 PDGA Professional Disc Golf World Championships

    My pet peeve is cat merch. Someone will be stepping up to throw and a commentator will subliminally suggest, "cat merch". Jeez already! Stop trying to make cat merch a thing, it's never going to be a thing. You should have to beat all the other players and then wrestle a BEAR

    Prodigy Disc What does this stamp say?

    Clearly a homage to Chris Rea's second album, Deltics.

    2024 Des Moines Challenge

    This probably isn't an original observation, but "B. Sides" just looks like a super fake name.

    Who will be the next first time winner?

    Nieminen's and wins in Europe are technically Pro Tour, aren't they?

    MVP Build a one model per manufacturer bag

    I was going to wait until someone bumped this before replying, but it seems that won't happen, so... bump. In my main bag I throw Pure, which has the same numbers, and in my secondary bag I throw a found Maiden, which has the same shallowness (but a bead), so it's entirely possible it would be...

    [Drivers] Are Speed 7 Discs Necessary?

    Underworld seems fine to me for controlled turn for an intermediate player. I'd try an Air Underworld for something even flippier before turning to the Diamond.

    I guess that's it, though it doesn't make a lot of sense to me to do a last run when they're still selling a disc with the same name and numbers. How many times did Innova renew the molds for their classics without much fanfare?

    Seems Kaxe is getting a last run scheduled for next week. I thought it was safe after they retooled it while retiring the Kaxe Z. But then, Kaxe Z hasn't nearly vanished from stores over a year after its last run.

    Nate Perkins Curse?

    Nate Perkins walked by Nikko in the parking lot. He got snatched away by a griffin, nobody knows where he is now. Nate Perkins also said hello to Gannon Buhr, but he diluted the curse by mailing ten of his fans who each mailed ten of their friends. A man in the audience while looking at Nate...

    MVP Build a one model per manufacturer bag

    An attempt to almost recreate my bag, with (reasons) for discs I've mostly never seen much less thrown: Kastaplast Berg Gateway Shaman (featured on Foundation, numbers, dimensions) Discraft Zone RPM Piwakawaka (reputation as Comet-like) Westside Warship Discmania Genius (numbers, Simon even...

    Lat64 factory store has VIP kid stamp Boatmans, 3 for 2: https://store.latitude64.se/products/vip-kids-boatman?variant=40274117951553 (And yet somehow they don't have stock VIP Bears.)

    2024 DGPT - Copenhagen Open

    Maybe this thought experiment has already been done, but what if you had to pick a US team from either any single state, or a number of states such that no subset of them have a total population exceeding Finland's of 5.6 million? So for instance if you pick Florida (22.6M) for Heimburg, you're...
