Disc golf is like the least extreme sport imaginable, at least in regular golf there's the possibility of braining someone with the club.

I play regular golf too, I take regular golf more seriously so it’s not always as fun. Disc golf is purely for fun so it’s always really enjoyable.

when someone gets brained with a disc it sounds exactly the same as when a disc nails a tree

Pivot on your heel, anons.
Anonymous No.197821

that’s something i’ve been working on for a while. it’s difficult on hyzers to load onto my heel, but delaying my reachback as long as possible has actually made the most difference on the pivot. the robinson brothers both like to pivot off the ball of their foot more than not from what i’ve noticed but yeah most high-level golfers go on the heel.

If I can't find my putter in R-Pro, should I get DX or spring for the Nexus?

nexus feels more like r-pro imo and will last longer

robinson has looked unstoppable so far. that nose up soft fading shot is dominant and he’s executing at an insane level.

I'm making disc golf patches. What ideas do you want?

It's because the people are too small to handle larger discs.

spend a bunch of time on the course playing and watching disc golf.

I get my I-Blend 169g Sphinx to have a nice turn and reliable fade to 260'. Standstill, with my most natural throw that has a touch of hyzer.
There are holes on my local courses that I simply can't reach, and I've been okay with that since I started off not being able to throw 175' last summer. Now I'm wondering if I could reach for something like a Mamba or Maya to push closer to 300', and if so what weight and plastic?

Once I stopped throwing everything up and nose up, the thing that got me over 300' was spin. Look at your grip and wrist position in the power pocket and I'm sure you'll find improvement.

That's pretty rad dude. Does the dye impact the glow?

Disc golf is always the answer. just dont get too attached to your plastic, you WILL lose discs.

also do yourself a favor and buy used from a play it again or something. Beat-in plastic is almost always better and cheaper.
also also more speed doesnt mean more distance. I throw about 315 and mostly throw 7 speeds or understable 9 speeds.
