Please be honest with your feedback, even if you feel the idea is not feasible. I am seeking candid and substantive comments only to help me review the viability of the business concept. Thank you in advance for your response!

Different carrying capacity to accommodate all discs so that way players are ready for whatever the course demands. Storage capacity to store snacks, marker, pencils, clothes, and bug spray; the golfer can be prepared for anything. Wallet and key compartment so players know exactly where they are and do not have to worry about losing them. Different color bags so competitors can have your favorite color. Nominal shipping fee will allow golfers to save money or grab another favorite disc. The 30 day return policy allows competitors to make sure it is the disc they wanted, along with the color and weight because we all change our minds now and then.

Can I ask why your targeted demographic skips over the college-aged population? Despite the notions of poor college students, there are still well-funded college students and other college-aged individuals with disposable incomes that could be a good customer base.
 
Yeah, you'll lose a ton of money having people constantly return discs because they couldn't throw it 500 ft.

Plastic is a piece of plastic. It can't really malfunction. Returns should only be new/unthrown discs.

Otherwise, it sounds good. I wish you luck. I wish it was a real store, in fact.

I guess I should of made this more clearer. What you said, is what I intended to say, which is "Returns on new and unthrown discs"

Thank You!
