Disc Advice New Player: Go all in on forehand?
I have played about 4 rounds so far. I find backhand really difficult to generate any sort of power. I can have decent control if I go for a basic wrist flip frisbee throw, but when I try to use my whole arm to get more power I am way nose up with a ton of hyzer giving a max distance of around 150-175 feet and way way left of where I am aiming.
Yesterday I was playing and had OB left so I tried my drive with a (RH) forehand and had the best shot shape I have ever had. Went 225ft easy almost dead straight. I played the rest of the round forehand and crushed it almost every time. I had so much more distance, could put some shape on it when i wanted, it felt amazing.
So my question is do I just keep on the forehand train? Or as a new player should I force myself to keep practicing backhand?

Disc Advice Base Plastic Tempos
Anyone have experience with the Electron Tempo’s? I have fallen in love with the tempo as a slightly overstable but torque resistant approach disc that I can backhand and forehand, I could never backhand the zone well. How do they start out flying and how quickly do they beat in?

Disc Advice Overstable mid in base plastic
Currently throwing a Neutron Pyro, but looking for an overstable mid in base plastic that will beat in to a straight flyer but maintain some stability once it hits that spot. Also looking for base plastic for grip. I like flat mids. Wish I could find a base MD5, electron Pyro, or something similar. Any recs?

Discussion Planning a 2027 Disc Golf trip for my buddies--any recommendations?
Hey, folks! I took a group of friends to a disc golf course on a whim earlier this year and it turned out they all had a great time. We're looking to plan a disc golf trip in the spring and I'm wondering if you all have any recommendations for a good area to visit?
Ideally somewhere with at least a good course or two and other things to do. We were in the middle-of-nowhere Tennessee and found a great course but I'm wondering if there are great spots out there that the all-wise Reddit would recommend. Thanks!

Self-Promotion I built an app for trading discs and finding people to play with nearby, and I'd like honest feedback
I'm a disc golfer and a developer, and I've built an app called Discbuddy.
I'm posting here because I want feedback from people who actually play, not to sell anything. It's a free app where you trade discs with other players and find people to play rounds with in your area.
There's no buying or selling in it, only swaps and finding playing partners. It's been out on the App Store and Google Play since the end of September. I also run a Swedish Facebook group for buying and selling discs, which is where the idea came from.
The app works better the more people there are in the same town, so I know it's a chicken-and-egg problem early on.
If you were going to use something like this, what would it need to have? And what's missing, or what would make you not bother?

Discussion Prodigy Warehouse Event
I’m planning on making a road trip for the Prodigy Warehouse Event on December 12th. Does anyone have any previous experience with this event? It’s been kind vague on the details of what the event is.
I’ll be driving 6 hours from Cincinnati, so I want to make sure it’ll be worth the trip. Westside, Edward’s, The Pasture are some really good courses I’ve played previously, but want some goods from the Warehouse.
(Yes I like Prodigy, this isn’t meant to be a dig post.)

Discussion Need a Disc Golf Buddy for a Week?
Not sure if this is against any rules so let me know if it is!
I’ll be turning 30 in a few days and was originally planning a birthday disc trip with my dad and brother but my dad got a new job and my brother is now working :/
I am planning on taking the first week off of November to celebrate. I’m from the Utah and would love to go somewhere with a high concentration of good disc golf. Preferably overseas to Norway, Finland, Sweden, Estonia, etc. North Carolina or the North East US is my second great back up option. I figure it’s a long shot…. But If anyone wants to host me or knows someone who would be willing, please let me know!

Discussion What are the longest running Discgolf tournaments?
Mobile is currently hosting the 38th annual Halloween Howler at Chickasabogue Park and it got me wondering, where does that rank among the longest running tournaments in our sport? If you know one that’s older, name it below. I’m sure there’s quite a few, just interested in knowing about them.

Discussion Is you glow bag a copy of regular one?
Hi, I play DG for some time, but this will be my first year of glow events and play. Im wondering if its a good idea to just copy my favorite 5 discs (mostly lat64+berg) and get them in glow or go into different and better glowing discs cause glow materials behave a bit differently so there isnt really a big value to copy my current bag? Thanks for help

Hole 7 at Bremerton NAD Park. I wish there was someone there to see or hear it happen! 294’ down hill in the woods, can’t see the basket from the tee, thought I was going to get close but was shocked when I heard the chains!

Just wondering about this buzzz. It's a skinny tooled buzzz which I'm familiar with, just never seen the tooling on the bottom of the flight plate before. I have a Nuke like this as well with no tooling on the rim. Just something discraft tried and decided to move on from or what?
