What are the most valuable lessons you've learned while disc golfing?

[DG_Before_Breakfast]

Hiking a few miles and throwing discs around, makes my body happy, and my mind tends to follow suit.

 

[BennettUA]

That the bias against Southpaws exists, and is as strong as ever.

You can never win if you're not wearing clothes.

 

[Tfire25]

When someone yells "FORE" don't turn around and look up.

So much this. And never stand to the side of a teepad unless you are the "one" with matrix like skills.

Just because you think you are peeing in a secluded area doesn't mean it's secluded. Always find the double tree for cover on both fronts.

 

[BgWvDave]

That you can't have nice things in a public park

 

[Pbmercil]

Nature is beautiful. Enjoy it as much as possible.

Let go of results and just enjoy every unique experience.

Do what makes your happy, no matter what

Make time for the outdoors. Disc golf is a way for me to recharge my batteries. Solo rounds allow my mind to wander while playing with others is a social outlet for everyday stress. In either case, hiking through nature is the best part of disc golf! :hfive:

 

[Jay Dub]

That getting up early to play golf all day is a lot more fun (and healthier) than staying out all night getting drunk.

 

[yesiam]

Never said "NICE" before the disc lands.

 

[chosenmatrix]

That most of the stereotypes about disc golfers are true.

This ^^^ has me on lulzing

 

[DavidSauls]

A private course is never finished.

 

[BANJODISC]

NO, I really suck!

I have realized I never have a quiet mind. When I am practicing putting I literally have to tell myself to shut up inside my own head so I can focus.

Most people that say they are good usually suck, most people that say they suck are usually good.

 

[ballardthedome]

"Good" & "sucking" are relevant terms. You may indeed believe you suck, because you play with pros all the time, but compared to the guy that's only been playing for 6 months, you're pretty awesome.

 

[jedeye]

It is better to give than to receive, and if you give, you get a lot more back than you ever expected. Well, maybe DG did not teach me this, but it continues to reinforce it.

 

[DatRedDude]

Most disc golfers are awesome

agree, but the ones that aren't awesome suck on a whole other level.
