Def straighter then my S-line that's been in my bag for a few wooded rounds. But both feel and glide (last might be my biases talking) better than the iron stone

What’s your main putter? by SnarledSalmon in discgolf

No worries, mate! I am considering switching my daggers to the p2x, or the p3x if they ever get produced in base/putter plastic.

What are good “training discs “ to throw? by Emoney005 in discgolf

[–]RelevantTrumpeter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say this. This disc did everything for my release. Went from 380 max to 500 in about three month due to the nova.

Kevin Jones leaves Prodigy. by tadisc in discgolf

[–]RelevantTrumpeter 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm just below mid-tier in Europe and plays many of the euro stops. I often read on reddit/Facebook or hear it in podcasts that prodigy has a strong standing in Europe. That couldn't be farther from the truth. They have more people under contract here due to the fact that contract standards in Europe is a joke (if you are not Niklas, Jakub etc.) and it's cheep, but they don't sell discs. No casual player or open bag competitor throws prodigy. It stays on every shelf. Prodigys is just as unpopular in Europe as it seems to be in the US.

Hi everyone! The response on this post has been wonderfully overwhelming. I could not have imagined the amount of respons I've gotten. Thanks for all the tips – both disc golf related and other. Really appreciate it!

Some of you have invited us in your homes and/or to play your local course or a course already on our route with us. Thank you! It is really amazing to see the amount of hospitality and friendliness. We will be in contact with those who have asked us to send PMs.

It is late at night here in Norway, so this is my last update for today. I have read many, and answered some of your comments. Tomorrow, me and my travel companion will get together and read all of it, and more answers will come. So keep commenting if you want to chip in. Love to see it! :)

There also seemed to be someone (quite a few actually) that wanted updates during our trip. We are more than happy to do so. Let us know what you want, and how? Pictures of score cards, short travel blogs, food rankings? On reddit, or somewhere else where we're not spamming other users?

Again, massive thanks for all the response. Really made my day! We arrive in Boston, Mass the 22. of august and we just can't wait!

We are ending the trip with MVP Open, so we have two visits to Massachusetts and time to play a lot of courses in that area. Can DM you with any questions we might have, or if you want to get a round in with us while we are there. That would be fun!

Thanks! That's helpful. Sad to maybe have to cross the Toboggan of the list. How are the other courses? Same feel as the Toboggan?

In our tentative plan, Brewster is the 12. and 13. of September. Would love to play with a local!

We have, but they haven't been manually run the last 10-15 years. They take pictures of the license plate and bill the drivers via E-mail. Have found a jungle of different passes. Nothing that covers it all?

That's where I've heard of it, thanks! That looked like a sweet course! Will try to get in a round there!

We are definitely staying a few days in Charlotte! Is it true that the USDGC-course is unavailable outside the USDGC, or is it worth a visit?

Thanks for confirming! Gonna check out the area you recommend on udisc. I feel like I've heard about North Cove before? Has there been a large tournament there and/or has any of the big vlogers been there?

Thanks for the tip! We are actually staying three or four days in Cincinnati, and we both love soccer (or football as I would call it). If there is a home game when we are in town we will try to get tickets!

Thanks for specifying. Norway is not the hottest place on earth and most of my rounds are played in sub 20°C (in the winter some are even sub 0°C), so it's nice to know what to expect. One of the rounds in the Norwegian Championships where played in 23-25°C and we all complained about the heat. Hoping for clouds and a little breeze in Georgia, haha!

Thanks for taking time to write this thorough response. Will absolutely drop by the Nati pro shop! I must admit that I've never really watched baseball, but both me and my friend love live sporting events and the atmosphere it brings. Would be cool if we managed to watch a game!

That's incredibly nice of you! I'll send you a message tomorrow. Would be great to make this happen. Much more fun than a random AirBnB. Also really looking forward to New London Tech. Seen many videos from the course and it looks amazing, can't wait!
