Yesterday I finally remembered to throw the Hydra in my bag for one shot on #12 at Bradford - usually right, around a corner in front of a small, muddy pond. I usually end up on the bank somewhere but this time I thought, I have this dumb floating disc so I ought to throw it when there's a chance of it going in.
Sure enough I'm in a position to throw the thing on my second shot there, figuring I'll float a nice anny around the corner and settle next to the pin rather than play it safe and lay up. I let it rip and it floats alright... right into the middle of the pond. And I thought, you know what, you did that on purpose. I was so focused on the water that I threw it right in. And the reeds close to the bank kept it from coming close enough to the edge to get so I still had to walk out knee-deep to get the stupid thing.
Moral: just make good throws.
