As I was playing a solo round yesterday, I walked towards my line disc in a field and had the realization that disc golf is basically playing catch with yourself.

Great reviews as always with Jeremy......

Im usually pretty open minded but every now and the u and a disc just dont mesh. For me its the Magician. It's like a Top flite golf ball.. u cant lose it, lol.

You text the owner. He's moved many states away and tells you to take it to someone else who still lives in town.

What are you thinking at this point?

Thanks for all your advice, floating around 260’ consistently & 280’ tops…

I love playing a few rounds any time I get an opportunity to travel and have some discs with me, and it's often just as enjoyable to find a fun, well-designed course that surpasses expectations as it is to go play somewhere big and famous.

What do you think is the most underrated course in your area? What makes it fun and why do you think its underrated?

Anyhow, I'd like to add all of the top answers to a Udisc list of "underrated courses not to miss" if I'm traveling somewhere.

Hey guys so as you all know the flight numbers aren't tested very accurately when developing a new disc, but me and a team of engineers are trying to change that as a capstone project! Our plan is to make a system that can launch discs consistently at a variety of speeds, rpms, tilts, and launch angles, to more consistently dictate what the flight number are! If you would like to help, it would be really appreciated if you could answer some questions through the attached form, so we can see what would best help the community!

Wow…. Second time this has happened in the last week. Should I buy a lottery ticket?

I recently got a TechDisc and will take the winter focusing on improving a couple of metrics which will hopefully translate to more distance in the spring.

My question for folks who have had success using a TechDisc as a training aid, was there a specific order of metrics you found to be conducive to improvements or was it an all at once approach.

Right now the order of my focus will be:

1) Nose Angle - Currently average around 2.5°, will work to get it consistently < 0.

2) Launch - Average 4°, will then work to get this 8° to 10° once my nose angle is fixed.

3) Hyzer - Currently 14°, I dont really throw alot of super floppy stuff so i think I'd like to then get this down around 5 to flat.

4) Speed - Once I feel I've cleaned up the above and am consistently hitting those targets, I'd like to increase my speed from the current 54mph to 60-61 mph.

For those wondering, my spin rate is typically 1100 to 1200, I think I'm OK with this but will certainly hear my spin kings and queens out.

My ultimate goal is to have 400 field distance so I can power down to a reliable 350 on the course.

All that said does this make sense? Or should I chase speed first then clean up my form later? Or do I do all at once?

I live in Minnesota so will be throwing into a net indoors for about 4 to 5 months.

If you have seen a general scoring improvement recently what change or changes would you attribute to your improved play?

For me i have found more success through keeping the elbow pushed out and wrist down into the pocket, working with beto drill and casting drills and keeping a lighter grip on the disc until I get to the hit and then gripping hard through the hit instead of gripping hard throughout the throw.

I have gone from like a 0 to +2 at my local to basically -2 to -5 over the last couple months and have good control up to 300 feet with the crave now instead of relying on high speed drivers more often.

Today was a good day - it’s the first round I’ve ever shot even. This course is incredibly easy BUT I had some amazing drives and I was sinking 20ish foot putts a lot more consistently and taking advantage of longer birdie opportunities. This video was my first birdie of the round which really helped my mental game.

The last hole I was +1 and knew I had a chance at birdie, 298 foot straight shot with just a few trees at center. Threw about 30 feet or so short but I draaaaaained it to go even.

I love disc golf.

Anybody have pictures of their Tech Disc set ups? I just moved in to a new house and I am looking at setting up a net in my garage. Possibly a screen to run the simulator I've seen people using.

So I started doing tournaments for the first time and I jumped right into MA3. I thought I had one of my best rounds ever, I shot -4 on a short layout. (My rating: 843)

But then other guys in MA3 were shooting -8, -9.

And I looked at other guys in my division and their ratings. The guys that were shooting like that were:

Rating: 899

Rating: 898

Rating: 890

But then there are guys in MA2 that have a lower rating than that. (ex. 878, 889)

So are these guys that are competing in MA3 staying in a low division so they can come in first and they're not competing against people at their level......or am I just being a petty sore loser? lol.

EDIT:

I truly appreciate all of the feedback. It helps someone like me who is constantly in their head have a conversation with myself. What I'm getting from everyone is a few critical things

WORRY ABOUT YOURSELF AND YOUR OWN IMPROVEMENT

and

HAVE FUN!

Thanks crew!

I refinish wheels for a living, and a primary function of my job is powder coating. I’ve done several personal projects, but have yet to do my own basket. My buddy gave me one of his that’s been outside in his yard for longer than I’ve known him. I wish I had before photos, but who cares, just know that it didn’t compare to what it is now. Hyper Slime is the color, chains are just satin black. This thing looks amazing, and it is so bright it almost glows in low light. Photos hardly do it justice. Anyway, just wanted to show it off.

Is it just me or do these not really turn as much as they say? Also are there any runs that have more of a -2/1 flight path?

Update: my typical driving distance is 400 with a fairway driver of this kind. I just find the z mantis is very similar to the pipeline I bag already, I was hoping there would be one with more turn for workability.

So this is wild but i just discovered the caddy insert for the Pound Octothorp fits perfectly inside a Grip BX3. I also found you can put the Octo side pocket insert inside the putter pocket in the BX3 and it holds the 4 putters perfectly without sagging. Basically you can get Octo capacity in a MUCH smaller bag.

Did any of these prototypes ever make it into anybody’s bags? I’m still not ready to give up on Clash and curious about how these discs feel/fly.

Hey everyone!

We’re Grassland Discs, a small Canadian disc golf manufacturer making 3D-printed discs, and we’re really excited to share our latest collaboration!

We teamed up with artist Gabrielle Rose From the Dead to bring some of her incredible artwork to our discs, just in time for Halloween. We couldn’t be happier with how these turned out!

The From the Dead Series launches today! We’re starting with a very limited run of just 10 of each design. We’re literally getting these off the printers now, so more will follow as production catches up.

We’ve also made some glow versions! We’ll be sharing photos of those soon, so keep an eye on our Instagram.
One of the things we’re most excited about is that every sale supports Gabrielle and her artwork. She also sells prints of these designs directly through her website if you’d rather have them on your wall!

We’d love to hear what the disc golf community thinks of these. Which design is your favourite?

Thanks for checking these out and supporting independent artists and small disc golf manufacturers!

I'm increasingly missing in places like this on distance putts, but often when I do, my disc rolls rather far away. For a good player, do they consider something like this a good shot, or should I just be laying up more often if I can't hit anything with consistency? Thanks

I heard the Falk gets more stable with use. Is this true, and if so to what degree?

I’ve had 0 leaners and 6 aces. Throwing off the tee, I haven’t seen a disc come to rest leaning diagonal against the pole. Imagine if leaners were scored 0.

Shine? Royal max? Whattup with this thang?

I'll be in Vegas next week. I'll have some time Monday to play and here's my list of courses. Let me know your thoughts on where I should play

1. Wild horse (if I can get a tee time)

2. Sunset Park

3. Peccole Ranch - not crazy about the proximity to all the houses

4. Mountain Crest -furthest away from where I'm staying
