When To Dive into Tournaments

[Jay Dub]

Thanks!

I do have another question, though. Can you use Innova Factory 2nds or out-of-production discs in a tournament?

Yes.

 

[Gennataos]

Yeah, just dive in. Most folks are pretty laid back, particularly with new players. I'd also advise trying to get to know folks in the local scene. It makes everything a ton more fun when you know folks. I'm a St. Louis area player, too...hitting up that link to the StL club is a good idea.

If you're ever up for a round at Watson Trail or Schroeder (Manchester area) around lunchtime, I work in that area and would be happy to meet up if I can. Just PM me here!

Yes factory seconds and out of production discs are legal for play.

 

[Discwrangler]

Everyone's capable of shorting terrible, so you won't get made fun of. We have all been there.

We have a kid who started 6 months ago and he played terrible first round only to come back to the middle of the pack second round. That's a victory IMO.

Does anyone know if their is a Birdie Bash in the STL area, that sounds like a blast!?

There is, but i believe registration ended yesterday.
Check out these sites for STL disc golf info.

I play my worst rounds every tournament. I'll shoot par the day before and +15 at the tourney. Don't be intimidated, sign up for rec and have fun. Most players at that level are very friendly and nice.

Playing my first real tourney (only AR's and BB's until now) on Saturday... I'm really nervous, but still excited.

People that have confidence in their shots will own tourneys.

Don't be afraid of anybody but yourself.

Just my advice

Good luck!!!!

In my opinion, the sooner you start playing tournaments, the sooner you will become a better player that no one will laugh at. It really is amazing how much I have learned and improved simply from playing in tournaments.

 

[Happablap]

Never. Too many overly competitive people who forget that they are throwing glorified frisbees.

 

[Organicvoodoo]

Same with ball golf, they are just playing glorified miniature golf.

Good luck!!!!

Thanks! I came in 2nd in the Rec division. Lost by 1.
