Hello all, long time lurker, first time posting so I'm trying to keep it simple to start.
I have read tons and tons of posts where people list the distances they can throw a disc. I tried searching on this forum, as well a variously phrased google searches, and couldn't find anything on this subject. There were mentions of measuring the distance for holes on a course, with various methods and levels of reliability, but I can't really see these methods being applied to measuring a throw. I mean, is it even possible to laser measure a disc on the ground? Or would it be from the disc back to the tee? I could definitely see how a GPS would be helpful, but does everyone on here have one?
Basically I'd like to know how far I'm really throwing instead of just coming up with a random number. That way, I can really measure my progress and know what works and what doesn't when making adjustments to my technique.
So, let's hear it! The different options, the good & bad, and personal experience with this! Looking forward to hearing the replies!
