DG Vocab List - Fun or Catchy Terms

[Essington]

One term we use quite a bit is "On Safari". When you are obviously away, but your disc is lost in the shule (sage brush, aspens, and prickly a** rose hip bushes) ... "Go ahead and throw, I'm on Safari here", or shanking a drive off the tee, "I'll be going on safari to find that one"

• BOB - Back of the Box. Last to throw

We call that one "Beer Bitch" since the worst (highest) score on a hole gets to carry the cooler for the duration of the next hole.

Don't know if these have been mentioned yet but:

Treenied - Denied by a Tree
Rosswell - When the disc gets stuck in the ground like a UFO

So I was playing out here in SF a few months ago on a hole where the optimal line is a teebird shot ("straight with predictable fade at the end") to get into putting range. So a guy tees off and his drive is looking like it's going to fade too soon into some trees so he yells "GET LEGS, c'mon GET LEGS".

One of the funniest things I've ever heard in a round, and I started using it from that point on. So:

Get Legs: when a shot needs to "stay up" or "stretch" just a bit further before fading, usually to avoid hitting a tree.

Cubby Ace - An ace you want noticed but you wouldn't count as a real ace.
Ex: emptying your bag at a hole

"He's a lumberjack and he's okay..." Sung when someone hits a tree every throw.
"Extra seasoning." More than three tree hits on a throw.
"Hibernating." When a disk hides under leaves.
"Ten points." Anyone walking across the fairway, oblivious to the fact that they are on the course.
"Mister Sulu... Warp Factor Fail!" A full speed throw into a tree ten feet in front of you.

 

[AJ_86]

Forgot one...

"Zoom Climb" for when a disk decides to try and set an altitude record.

Dunno if its been posted yet but there's the worst three words in disc golf, "You're still out."

Didn't read all the replies but I like to use Chain Tickler when your putt or drive barely taps a link or two.

Treenied is a good one. I'll throw out a "Shaq Diesel'd" or an "Olajuwon'd" when a branch knocks it down and has that swatting motion afterwards.

I just do the dikembe motion without saying anything.

interesting. for as much as that happens, i've never heard an official term for it. i'd use "ninja star", i kinda like it.

Stratosphere: the act of throwing so nose up that the disc climbs over the trees and hyzer stalls out
