Chucker Definition

[`cjc]

..chuckers do more harm than good.

..they just can't see that their obnoxious behavior is the reason why some people will never play or accept disc golf as a sport.

They're called Barney's in Atl.

Nah, it's the druggies that do that. Families tend to turn away from illegal activity more than someone throwing an 79 on a course.

i see chuckers as obnoxious, inconsiderate, a bit rude, but sometimes unaware for better or for worse of their actions. Big or small, fat or skinny, drunk or sober, if you act like a jerk you make yourself look like a scumbag. If you're not letting people play through while you throw your whole bag and then some, that's a chucker. If you're throwing your beer cans/bottles/butts around without a care while playing, that's a chucker. If you're being loud, rude, and obnoxious around others trying to play....well you get the point. That being said, there are also people who fit many descriptions of a chucker, but still not qualify as one as they may be loud, obnoxious, and unaware, but they clean up after themselves, let others play through, and try to keep an out for people even when inebriated after 6 or so beers. But yeah as CJC said "Chuckers do more harm than good" which i do believe.

When you see a group of 10-15 people in one big group. One throws, they run to their disc and the others people keep throwing on them until the hole is done

Not necessarily a group of chuckers, but it always makes me shake my head in wonderment.

Not sure what's worse as far as pace of play, a herd of chuckers, or a big family including the parents and grandparents throwing discs 75' each throw.

At least the families are nice and let you play through.

Agreed. And families know that they are oblivious. Chuckers don't care.

 

[Three Putt]

Those are casual players. The chuckers are the ones who do that and leave a trail of beverage containers and cigarette butts in their wake for someone else to clean up.

The groups being called "chuckers" here we used to call FC's.

 

[JeremyKShort]

I've always used the term to refer to anyone who plays with one maybe two discs, no bag, and little to no regard for rules/etiquette. He's the type who couldn't tell you the brand/mold of the disc he's throwing unless it's stamped on it, and even then he has to look at it before he tells you...every time. Also, the type of player who would never find themselves on a forum like this. So if you're here, congrats, you're not a chucker.

A chucker is someone whose only tool on the course is distance.
