How far will you go?

[hedfan1]

what happens if you see somebody with your disc?

I ask them for it back.

If they refuse I sick Johnson on them.

Seriously, never had this happen to date.

Sorry to upset you friend.

i'm not your friend. i'm not that easy.

 

[Johnson]

i'm not your friend. i'm not that easy.

I reguard anyone as a friend until they go out of their way to tick me off. Peace

I go out of my way to beat you on the course, does that count? (I've had a few, don't hate me.)

 

[Johnson]

Poison your body as you see fit, I won't stop you

 

[hedfan1]

I poison it with wins. Booze is just and inhibitor.

 

[jsun3thousand]

i'm still looking for somebody that will stab a person. i know they are here. people love their plastic.

 

[Johnson]

Don't want to incriminate anyone, but I have a hunch Franky D carries a Gator (Gerber not Innova) on his hip while on the course, for intimidation, not man slaying.

A buddy and I were playing Preisker Park in Santa Maria and I threw over the larger brick fence on hole number 9. It landed inside a locked boat and rv storage area. I tried to call the manager and see if there was anyway to get in. He, of course, was unwilling to help out so we backed the car up to the fence, i jumped over, grabbed my disc and used an rv ladder to climb back out.

How far I will go often depends upon how formidable the hazard is and whether I have expendable clothes on (often I do not).

A $15 or cheaper piece of plastic might not be that cheap to some folks, but its a hell of a lot cheaper than dealing with even a minor medical issue should you find something in that water you didn't want to. If someone wants to take that risk and ends up finding my plastic, they can have it.

Vandalism of said storage area is needed.

^^^R.P.V.

Yeah the guy was a real douche about it too. It was the storage area for the neighborhood and he basically laughed and said there was probably someone there with a key but he didn't know who and hung up.

 

[leftyone]

depends on the disc, but i've gone into the river for a disc before (freshly dyed predator), and found a few others while i was in there , most of the time it depends on if there are other groups playing behind me and their pace. if no one is behind me i'll spend some time, if i don't find it i'll go back (happened to me last week).

I also had one land on the roof over the first floor of a building outside my college deans second story office. Had to go see her the next day and ask if I could climb out of her window and get it. She said it would be better for her insurance if a school employee crawled out over the roof, so she got a janitor to go get it. Then she asked me all about disc golf.

"Hmm... well they'll make more." - Mark Ellis after I told him I just lost a disc. One of the best pieces of advice I've ever been given because it made me realize that those little pieces of plastic aren't really that important.

I hope this answers any and all questions about lost discs, how we feel, what to do, ect. There are even more, but this summed it up nicely

Are you a moderator Prerube? I'm just curious cause you always tell people what to do.

I'm sure most people do look for stuff before they post a thread it's just the search function isn't that great and I know that new people have no idea just how extensive the archives might be. I think that as users continue to join this problem will never go away and that you just might drive yourself crazy trying to audit every new thread with a list of previous threads that are similar.

I got in 40 degree water after looking for 1/2 hr and still came up empty.

 

[Labelkills]

last week I went in a fast moving river, in below 30 air temps, to get a disc i hate.

 

[innovadiscs71]

If it's a DX plastic disc, maybe 10 min. Others i will search ANYWHERE until found.
