[Vibram] Vibram Disc Golf Thread (Part II)
- Thread starter Three Putt

The over / under is Washington's Birthday.
M/F Maple Hill Soles are the best approach/outside the circle putters in the game (I am stating this as fact rather than opinion). Especially a beat one for US/Anny long putts/approaches. I've made 2 from 70+ feet in my last two rounds. And if they don't hit chains, they stick where they land. And you can pick medium or firm feel in your hand. Voodoos (eventually) replaced them as my putting putters (largely for cost) but nothing will ever replace them for approaches.
Coming into winter I'm wishing my mediums were a bit softer....but not crazy floppy soft like the standard 'soft' discs.
Am I the only one that wishes there was a blend 1/2 way between medium and soft for the winter months?

Glow fills this gap quite nicely.
But they are white(ish). White disc + snow = :wall::wall:

Registration for TD's to sign up for 2015 Birdie Bash events has opened.
As with last year, looks like they are moving forward with improvements on the event. Adding a championship, bonus prizes, etc... (Although I am wish they were not getting rid of the extra disc for $10. That was popular with my event last year).

No...the last two years they do a batch of them in late October and sold them through the Vibram site store. Once that batch is gone, they're gone until next year.

There are some still floating around on Ebay. Not much of a selection though.
I'll take the under. How did the latest run turn out? Did they test out as expected or are you making further adjustments to the mold?
Agreed. I couldn't make it to last year's event, but the ability to purchase extra discs at competitive prices is always nice. Maybe this is something they could add back?

I didnt get to make last years either so that really does suck IMHO. I can understand not selling it for $10 but why not make it $12 and I'll still buy it.

I don't think the price was the issue. It caused some events confusion as to what discs could be used during the tournament. Thus they have eliminated the option to reduce to potential for confusion.
The TD's probably could have done a better job of problem solving by handing out the extra discs after the tournament.

I can see that being confusing.

The third disc was confusing at the events, at the fulfillment, and at the ordering. I've learned and we will be keeping it simple.

Yes, tester will be receiving the disc soon. From what I've heard it will be an understable fairway driver, roughly speed 7. People have compared it to a slower roadrunner

A more understable Trak?
