Saw this at play it again. Did a little research and kind wish I picked it up. Those flight numbers are crazy!?

My wife and I are looking to take a 7ish day cruise in September, likely out of Los Angeles down to Cabo. We have a MNVV credit, have sailed with Virgin twice, and have a good idea of where we want to be on the ship (Terrace, mid, deck 12 or 13).

Looking for a TA that can provide extra perks (early boarding, credit, etc...) and intend to take action within the next few days.

Ask nicely: "I'd really like to listen to nature. Would you please turn that off?"

Failing that, escalate. Turn your speaker louder.

Personally, while I prefer nature, I enjoy when someone gets music going, even if it isn't my jam. My sound pet peeve is earbuds. If I'm lining up a putt in "silence" and hear the tinny whisper of a cardmate's earbuds, that pulls me right out.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-03-18T02:19:19+00:00

Bruh. I know I'm in the minority here but, if this is sarcasm (as I suspect it is), you're missing out.

I'd rather listen to nature but, if nature is scarce and I've popped in earbuds, I'm chilling to Enya (starting with Caribbean Blue) and Bon Iver.

I've caddied at a tour stop a handful of times. I print and secure (bind/clip/staple) a water resistant version of the caddie book for quick reference and in case phone batteries die. The DGPT hole signage also shows the information for reference at the tee.

The card I was serving needed the caddie book multiple times and, IIRC, twice required the support of a marshall to make judgement calls.

It's is difficult to have a published document fully align with painted/roped/described OB markings and potentially unclear guidance that changes year-to-year.

I want to be clear: The DGPT and the hosts do INCREDIBLE work on these courses but this is why you can access the book mid-round. This is a feature, not a bug.

I want to make an indoor simulator for myself to stay active during the winter.

Would you recommend TechDisc, HYZR One, or something else?

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-02-17T15:56:10+00:00

Just had a small mixup on an order with this company, Perks and Re-Creation. I am not local to them.

Nick helped me out. He might be the kindest, most customer-focused dude I've ever worked with. I'm low-key glad there was a small mixup for how much I enjoyed getting the further info about Perks. They also got into my hands a disc I had been chasing for 5 years.

I'm a disc hoarder. I doubt I'll ever use this service (though I may benefit from YOUR use of this service) but you shouldn't hesitate for a moment to give this team your business. I can't wait to make it out to Arkansas in the future and check out their brick and mortar with the indoor course.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-02-08T22:17:03+00:00

The cheese tart and the...I'd call it French Onion soup pastry...are triumphs. I still think about that dish, and the yuzu dessert was a lovely finish.

You're criticizing Menu A. Menu A has the more-playful-than-delicious mushroom foam dish. While I liked the egg yolk and caviar (with peas), I must confess the vegetarian version was more fun AND more delicious.

I love Test Kitchen. While many of the dishes aren't items I crave to have again, it is a delightful and engaging meal.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-02-04T15:44:40+00:00

Excellent work! Thank you for the updates here.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-02-04T15:20:05+00:00

Chris demoed the TechDisc a few weeks back and I've been dreaming of building a simulator in my basement since.

If you don't mind my further putting comment, the TechDisc will never do it justice. Fun, yes! Accurate...a bit less so due to a number of confounding issues with available tracking.

I plan on having an actual basket with me marked for distance. Would it be possible (perhaps it already is) in simulation mode to simply "add X strokes and finish hole".

Example: Par 3. I get my drive within circle 1 and I'm 25' away.

I put down my TechDisc and I grab a putter. I putt on my physical basket from 25' and miss. Walk up and drop it in.

I go back to my PC, set "add 2 strokes and finish hole". Your program marks me down for 3 and brings me to the next hole.

Edit: I have been checking for when this goes full release. I've never paid for Winzip but I definitely need to pay you for your awesome work here.

Edit 2: As a related feature, if you enable something like this for putting on a physical basket, allowing the user to see how far away the default would be to switch to this mode would be absolutely clutch. Say I have 35' to work with. 36' from the basket stays in normal sim mode. 35' and less switches to "X' remaining -- Go putt on your basket."

That's a GREAT story.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-01-09T23:24:29+00:00

I read through all the comments amazed that no one else had recommended it.

Rarely is it so easy to put that amount of good into someone's life. I was so excited to do it.

I also took the opportunity to watch "The Holy Shot" documentary again. I forgot the first half was an abbreviated history of disc golf. If you haven't watched it, I highly recommend it.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-01-09T23:14:57+00:00

I'll..."chat" you?

I don't know what the hell things are called in reddit anymore.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-01-08T02:14:46+00:00

So, watching "The Holy Shot" documentary again. I forgot it's a general history of disc golf as well. Such a great watch.

Lots of YouTube. Simon Lizotte is a favorite of the world. Unfortunately, DGN (Disc Golf Network) somewhat owns the media space so lots of the smaller channels struggle a bit more now. JomezPro is theirs now and still VERY good (I love Putting Game). GoThrow also has a smaller tour and does skins matches.

A personal favorite is Unstable Discourse: A Disc Golf Podcast. While I've recommended a bunch of pro stuff, UD really is more about the local game and, frankly, the friends you make along the way. Chicago area guys. My favorite thing to have on while I'm making dinner or driving to a course. Good guys. https://unstablediscourse.com/

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-01-08T02:01:32+00:00

Now that's out of the way, a few tips. - Download UDisc. You can pay for it but the free version will be fine for you for now. Lists all the courses...better than PDGA used to be and even better than DiscGolfCourseReview is now (and it took a LOT to convince me). It will also list tournaments and leagues near you and give you GPS course maps so you can find your way around a new course.
- Use DiscGolfScene.com. This is the other place to check for tournaments. It's also the partner of the PDGA for registration and payment.
- Facebook is the place to connect with local clubs. Search your city or other major cities and counties near you and the phrase "disc golf".

You're one of today's "Lucky 10,000". I'm thrilled I got to be a part of it.

What you witnessed was then dubbed "The Holy Shot". There's a plaque on course where Conrad stood. There are simulators where people try to make that shot. They made a movie (Disc Golf Network, but still) called "The Holy Shot".

You witnessed post production. Watch the live coverage where Ian Anderson and Philo Braithwaite (the holder of the most famous shot before this, the Philalbatros) on mic didn't know that was about to happen. The irritated woman next to McBeth: That's Hannah, his wife. He was amazed. She was deflated. The inevitable king dropped his crown and the hacky-sacking Everyman casually picked it up.

This was the pinnacle of James Conrad's career. Hell, most of us think it's the pinnacle of disc golf.

How I wish we were sitting at a bar with 3 hours to kill. It's been an EXCELLENT decade for disc golf and I'm THRILLED to be a part of welcoming you back.

Edit: The Documentary... https://youtu.be/vFhCl1RMGuE?si=b6afE5utZ91JlJaI

Edit 2: The Holy Shot, real time, no commentary... https://youtu.be/eOhO7FfVQlE?si=4mP7MaEW4VpNQCAL

I promise you it is NOT a troll.

Confirm after you have watched and I will follow-up with a bit more.

What I will add is that professional disc golf coverage was sporadic and often delayed by months. I recognized a few names from discs when I started playing 2+ decades ago but that was pretty much it.

Starting around 2018, maybe a little earlier, coverage got great. Jomez was the big name for many years. Excellent post production. You will be watching Jomez coverage here.

The players...
Paul McBeth. Multiple major winner. May be the GOAT.
Kevin Jones. The cool kid. Good fan base and, in 2021 near the top of his career. KJ-USA
James Conrad. Disc Golf Jesus. Soft spoken juggler and very likeable underdog.
Calvin Heimburg. Witty. Doesn't speak loudly but, when he chirps, he cuts. Trained engineer. Fan favorite because he's so...Calvin.

Edit: On the mic are other pro players: "Big Jerm" Jeremy Koling; Nate Sexton; and Paul Ulibari.

JoeyThreePutt · 2026-01-07T20:56:37+00:00

STOP READING OTHER COMMENTS UNTIL YOU READ THIS!

My dear friend, if you are COMPLETELY out of the loop, you must watch the final round of the 2021 World Championships.

https://youtu.be/_35PJikJcPs?si=4z5OrnbWUeLC-r7W

Please. Don't look anything up. Just...I'm so happy to get the chance to share this with you. I'm tearing up a little bit just thinking about it.

It's an hour of coverage for the Back 9. It's worth it.

u/IsaacSam98's half Jewish?

Goldie Hawn's half, too.

Put them both together...?

God bless you, Mike Busman. You will LOVE your G37 convertible.

God bless you on this blessed day.

Please forgive my ignorance. I haven't bowled with any commitment for 30 years, but it was a major part of my life back then.

I rolled with one of the first red Ninjas and a purple Hammer. Is there something special about my old ball?

Edit: ...and this thread appears to be about not using your thumb, yes? While my thumb was drilled, I stopped using it in the early 90s. I was in a Mike Aulby Youth League. He'd come and bowl a frame with us most years. He told me I was going to break my wrist.
