    Forget Bolf, Let's Talk Frolf: The Disc Golf Thread

    Played my first tournament of the year on 3/2. It was a one day Berg only tournament. Managed to win the MA40 division with an -3 over 2 rounds. It was a lot of fun, and I find myself reaching for the Berg more than before. I’ve also spent some time working on my form with slow mo video which...

    I just use a blacklight flashlight. One of my regular playing buddies made some kind of LED string light for his bag so discs charge up while in the bag. It works ok, but I don't think it gets the disc evenly.

    Helpful reminders here. I was playing a course for the fifth time or so and I hadn’t been scoring where I thought I should be so I decided to play a (mostly) putter round. I think I threw 3 driver shots, only on quite long but wide open holes. Every other shot I threw was a putter. Knocked 3...

    Just signed up for a three disc tournament in Fitchburg in September. I haven’t seen one of these before, but it seems like low key fun. You get three discs from a manufacturer and they are the only discs you can use for the tournament. Hopefully it’s entertaining. Also, later this week I’m...

    Agreed, when I went to a tournament one of the things I noticed was that until the final round the men were nice enough. The fpo were much friendlier and generally looked happier. One caveat to that is that we were following a card with Ohn and Missy. Only Ricky from the lead card went to the...

    I think that’s true to some degree, but I think there is an important difference. With ultimate I was only really aware of crowds in between points, there wasn’t really enough time to think about them during points. Disc golf is a lot more like spring board diving in my experience (so relatable...

    I still have the final round of the men’s to go. My wife is at a conference so I won’t be able to watch it until Friday. It was tough to see Ella go OB on the last 3-4 holes. I guess I have to assume it was the pressure since she was doing so well before that. Plenty of pressure with Tattar...

    Just finished the FPO of Waco. No spoilers, but an exciting finish. Still have the final round of MPO to watch, but scores are tight after 2 rounds so I'm looking forward to the final rounds.

    The Vegas open is on YouTube. I didn’t realize Jomez had taken over coverage for FPO as well. The two hot geese moved over as well. Nice to see one of the signs of spring, just before the next storm anyway.

    Loos pretty tough to me. I have a hard enough time hitting the basket as it is. That thing is surprisingly expensive though, $85 for the home version. https://www.puttconfidently.com/

    This? View: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UOl9B6BJ0gs Looks interesting, might get one if the league gets good turnout

    Just got the official ok on some gym space for a winter indoor putting league. Never played in one, now I'm running it. What could possibly go wrong? I've got a few games to start but I have no idea if turnout will be 5 or 30 so I'm leaving it flexible for now. Hopefully it runs smoothly...

    Damar Hamlin is headed home to Buffalo!

    It’s been a while, but as I recall you are supposed to go to the beat of Staying Alive (or Another One Bites the Dust if you’re morbid). Is that still true?

    Brady is back….back again

    I was half asleep and not paying that much attention, but I think I saw him signing the ball for one of the guys that picked him off. Of course I'm sure we've all seen him leave the field pretty quickly at times as well, so like most people he's not perfectly consistent. I think I do see him...

    That was then: Celebrating what was

    Agree with all of this and had some of those same thoughts. I think part of the trouble is they do this education with rookies. When I was 21-23 if you had given me an NFL salary and then tried to teach me how to manage money I wouldn't have retained any of it. I was still bullet proof and...

    I like the sin bin idea as well, but you have to sort out the clock management first, otherwise time wasting while you're down a man will be a big problem. Most of the rest I agree with. I agree with BSF that the cost is a factor but I think the answer is that you just set them for the highest...

    I don't know what my rating is, but congrats on beating yours! Always nice to see what you're capable of if things go ok. I feel like I rarely put it all together, but there are flashes where I wonder 'why can't I just do that every time?' That's the joy/frustration of the sport though...

    Your arm strength will have an impact for sure, but your form is more important. I'm pretty sure I'm a fair bit stronger than Paige Pierce for instance, but I'm equally sure that she can out throw me by a fair margin. Throwing more will improve your form, when I switched over from Ultimate the...

    That's one of the more common ones I've seen. Looks like prices have gone up a bit, but I suppose everything else has too. Still, they work just fine. One thing to note is that the way they fly may change a bit as they get used more (or if you hit a couple of trees). Flight patterns can also...

    Most impressive stat from Brady era

    I think some of those records will go down, particularly yards and TDs. Yes the numbers are huge, but 17 games now could turn into 18 or more and especially with passing stats increasing and longer careers I think they go down eventually. I don't think the title games/superbowl MVPs etc go...
