I rarely post even though I check the forums on here daily but this i have to comment on. I gave myself the moniker underdog on here for a reason. I don't throw 400' (would love to be able to), but I can hit 375'. I don't make 10 out of 10 from 25' but i seem to make a 40'-50' late in a round under pressure frequently. I don't throw an thumber/tomahawk 300'+ but i know how to skip them on command or throw them high over trouble with accuracy. My forehand for distance throw is O.A.Ty as hell but my 3/4 release with my star destroyer can find its way around a corner and flex out just in time to land flat and skid close to the basket. I tend to throw lots of putters and midranges. I think my way around a course, have a large selection of shot choices at which I am proficient, and have good accuracy overall, which is my goal. My point is- there are many ways to have a lower score. Distance and making every single putt aren't the only way to win in disc golf. I play mostly tight wooded courses so big hyzer bombs/distance are fools gold and I'll beat that player every time. I don't have a rating yet, and I lose to great players all the time, there's a lot of them here in Charlotte, but I win often enough with steady consistent pars and occasional birdies. So if you are basing your irritation with the game on not being competitive then you need to see that there are a million ways to be good, not just distance and dead eye putting. Not that those qualities aren't great but have a great mental game, lots of shots, and accuracy and you will definitely rediscover your love of the game. Go out and play a lot, experiment on the course, and play with players that are better than you and you will improve. Good luck!
