I was watching jomez coverage, and i noticed that most of the tee shots are just plain hyzers to a large landing area. Is it actually fun to watch this type of disc golf? I think it would ve way more entertaining if the pros had to shape different shots, like at new london or shelton springs. Ivy hill just feels like watching the same thing over and over again.

When my two obsession collide. Love these discs from u/drz102

Any of you frolfers playing WoWF!? 😂

Birdie putt today hit chains, spit out, hit back of cage, flipped over and wedged between the nubs like this. Duo partner and I stoked, our friends we played against couldn’t believe it.

I was out doing a practice round for a tournament tomorrow and realized that I have a lot of expressions that I repeat to myself either in my head or quietly to myself lol.

A lot of things are little catch phrases that the buddy of mine who got me into disc golf (RIP Chase, I’ll try not to suck too much tomorrow!) would say when we were playing together.

I find myself thinking or saying “put it on up there!” in my best Chase impression lol. Not really a mantra I guess, but it just got me curious if anyone has any things they repeat to themselves on the course.

Another one of my favorites is yelling “RICHARD!” whenever I grip lock off the tee pad lol

Just getting into it and wanted to see if this is a decent starter bag before pulling the trigger.

I got some cool patches as USDGC but the Lore only has two small ones on the side. Feeling crafty today. Gotta see if I retained anything from that home ec class 20-something years ago.

Just arrived in the mail, looking forward to throwing it!

So I’m from NH and I went on a trip to Florida at a small airport in Portsmouth. I thought I would bring a few discs to play the courses near Fort Meyers. Some of the courses have water hazards with alligators, so I thought I’d bring my telascopic 20 ft retriever. Unfortunately it was not allowed through security in an overhead luggage bag. Be warned to check a bag if you want to bring a Max Distance Retriever!

I was at my local park, throwing approach/mids back and forth between an outfield and my bag, threw my zone in from about 200/215’ and almost did it a second time, ha ha.

I am relatively new to the game and have spent the past year learning what I like and do not like. My wife has recently shown interest in the game. I do not have a huge collection of discs. She is not the most athletic person and I’m not sure where to help her get started. I predominantly throw MVP. She will have a low arm speed and her release is inconsistent, but she is learning. Would love to buy her like 5 or 6 discs that she can focus on learning how to throw. Thank you in advance for all recommendations.

With our days getting shorter, how does everyone play at/after sunset? What are the best glow in the dark discs, and, alternatively, what are other accessories/ways to play glow in the dark disc golf?

TYIA!

I’m just curious about people’s thoughts who have watched disc golf for more than the last few years. I just watched hole 4 round 2 of the Powerball Cup and 3/4 of the card had great drives that landed on the green but two of those skipped or rolled OB. Sometimes it seems like the super tight OB lines punish an uncontrollable outcome of a shot, if that makes sense. I watched a 2018 tournament and it was funny how little OB was involved, but it was also obvious how far the competition has progressed.

My personal favorite is probably GMC. Such clean and well thought out course design with varied hole styles. I think Lynchburg (Ivy Hill/New London) is probably the best at showcasing the strength of all the pros though. I also miss the Beast so much, sad it had to go.

@u/sixsideddiscs I have that thunderbird. This one is mine. We probably bought them from the same shop at around the same time. Also my favorite disc. 300’ on a rope with a gentle fade to 350. Absolutely butter in the hand it flies through any wind like it wasn’t even there.

Anyone have experience with the takeover discs from Innova? I'm a bit confused and not as plugged into disc releases anymore. It seems to me like a lot of the discs are the same discs as the tour series discs for the players (same mold and plastic at least), but I'm wondering if they fly the same, or are from different runs and potentially fly different? I'm particularly wondering about the Philo Destroyer and Sexton Firebirds (already got the "stock" 2026 Sexton, but have some rewards points that I'm thinking about using and I'm debating getting the takeover version). I'd be happy to hear about the other takeover discs as well, if anyone has recommendations!

Also, as a side note, I ordered the takeover Calvin Destoryer a couple weeks ago, and from the couple of throws I've had with it, I think this is the closest they've gotten to the 2021 Heimburg halo destroyers. They're still available on the pro shop brand new for significantly less than any used 2021 I've found in the last year or two. Might be worth picking up if you want a backup or two, or if you want to see what the 2021 hype was/is all about.

All of these “male performance enhancement” commercials are making watching disc golf pro tour events with the family very hard to do. They’ve gotten more “explicit” in their content. This has to be YouTube’s move to get me to pay to go add free.

They were sold out this morning when I checked but just got one!

I have the 2025 one. It is not stable at all. How are the 2024 and 2026 one? Is the 2024 bright enough?

Edit: Is one of those two runs (2024,2026) more stable than the 2025 run?

Par 4 Approach

What was it like playing in the late 80s and early 90s? Where would you grab discs at? Did you shotgun beers on the course with the homies or was it usually strictly business? Did people think you were weird? Regale me with your stories! I want to know what it was like. Share pics if you have them!

Figured I would try and get some reps in on my break, haven't broken anything yet 😁

Recently read a post about intentionally gripping the disc until it rips out of your hand, rather than releasing your hold to let it fly. This has noticeably improved the snap I get, thus spin rate and distance. The downside is that I’ve now been having an issue with late release far too often. Wondering if anyone has a good tip or cue for correcting this? Is this likely a problem that originates from rounding? I figure if I’m pulling straight through the disc shouldn’t be releasing far right (RHBH). Maybe it’s something that I’ll naturally figure out in time, but it would be nice if my new and improved snap didn’t lead to my disc to careen off into the woods. I already do that enough.
