2011 disc golf goals

This seems to be a popular annual topic. I'll start it off.

Play at least 3-4 sanctioned events
Play every local non-sanctioned event
Have the new course in town get a timeline and finish the design
Regularly throw 400+ BH and get back to 450+ FH
Expand my putting confidence circle to 25-30 feet.
Pull my rating up at least 15 points
Defend my title at Duos in the Desert
Ace the only two holes at my local 9 hole course I haven't aced yet.

Im sure there are a few more things but that should cover it for now

 

[REDARMY]

develop more shots (forehand especially), push a rhbh drive out to 400', get a much higher % inside of 30', and travel more to explore more courses.

don't care about local tournaments since the RCF (president) is a joke.

 

[Daffron24]

1.) Become a TR
2.) Throw consistently over 400'
3.) Play 30 new courses
4.) Play in 5 new states
6.) Join PDGA

[harr0140]

I think I will post mine in the coming weeks but there already was a thread, so these should be merged together

[harr0140]

Here is what I wrote int he other thread and I am sticking to them.

1) Win an Intermediate PDGA tourney
2) Raise my rating to at the very least 925-930 (next transmission I will be 913-915) with the ultimate goal to be ineligible for Intermediate
3) Design a course completely on my own and get it implemented (I have 2 places right now I am working on, both private property (one a ski hill and one a golf course).
4) Assist on at least 5 course designs and hopefully sell some DG course installations
5) Increase my putting accuracy to 9/10 from 20' and 7/10 from 30' and consistantly make 1 putt from outside the circle every 18 hole round at a minimum.
6) Maintain my average of at least 1 round per day.
7) Raise my holes played per day average to over 18 holes (currently about 17.0)
8) Hit 300 courses played and reviewed (currently 213 played with only 2 unreviewed)

 

[gcr_russell]

Thanks, if a mod could merge these that would be great, I missed that one and thought this hadn't been done for the year yet.

I understand 12/1 was a little early to talk about goals there was still plenty of DG left. Even the 14th might be early but it is good to set the goals before the year begins anyways.

 

[mashnut]

Threads merged.

My goals for 2011:
30 states played (currently 21, will be 25 by the end of 2010)
500 courses played and reviewed (currently 350, probably 370ish by the end of 2010)
Play in 10 sanctioned events (6 this year)
Rating up to 920 (903 now)

Goals

1. I am going to lose weight. I am up to 387 pounds. I would love to get back down to 225 or lower. This is a long term goal so, I will break it down. First, I will try to get back to 375. Disc golf will be my main exercise to get back to a proper weight. I have a buddy that is 260 pounds and he wants to lose weight as well.

2. Really work on my short game. I have been slipping lately. Not sure if it is the bitter cold or I just forgot how to play all of a sudden.

3. Get an ACE.

4. Get par on a 18 hole course.

5. I would also like to add a little more distance to my throw. I am at 360 ft.

6. Learn to throw it back hand. I am only a solid forehand thrower.

7. Put a little more studying into rolling disc's. I have a good start, but I know I could really improve on it.

8. Keep taking my son out to play disc golf. He is getting better everyday and maybe with some of my excess money for college. I will get a basket so, both of us can work on our putting.
