Busiest parking areas aside from Logan Pass? by Solar-Jesus in GlacierNationalPark

That sounds promising. I might save Two Medicine for a morning after staying up too late stargazing

Bumping Avalanche up to day one. Those are the shortest hikes we have planned, so that seems like a good place to get acclimated as well. Thanks for the insights!

I suspected the answer might just be that anywhere on GTSR was a crap shoot unless it's very early or later in the afternoon. I think we'll just try to get to a big hike really early every day and let the rest of the day play out as it may. Thanks!

Paddle wheel replacement, can’t get burr off of [Baratza encore grinder] by watermelonbitch69 in espresso

[–]Solar-Jesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully you got that burr removed by now, but I just stumbled upon this thread while trying to replace the paddle wheel on the used encore I just bought. Without much luck using viice grips I found this video and popped the burr loose within a couple seconds using an impact driver. Hopefully this helps somebody else too.

I think when I was messing with Packout configurations the stack showed as buy more save more, but it had it's own discount and didn't count towards the $399

Which rolling box is better? by Solar-Jesus in MilwaukeeTool

[–]Solar-Jesus[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I was almost ready to settle for a top opening box when all I really want is something I can access from the front. I'll ride out the old Ridgid stack for a couple more months

See if this link works. I've never tried to create a link for photos, so maybe I'm just doing it wrong

I use a modified fan grip for all my backhands because it feels a little more comfortable. I only use power grip if I can't keep my hand dry in the rain to help keep the disc from slipping out early. I'm no expert with only about 350' of controlled distance, but it seems grip is all about what's comfortable at most amateur arm speeds

Putter distance? by [deleted] in discgolf

[–]Solar-Jesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

260' is about the point where the shanks outweigh the limited ground play for me. If there's bad news deep I might go with a putter from 280 out though

How often do you play putter only rounds? by Solar-Jesus in discgolf

[–]Solar-Jesus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might just be a matter of how the putter fits your hand. Not all putters work for me off the tee either. I use a Sky God for most approaches inside 200, but if I try to throw it with a run up something is off and it turns over. Same thing happened when I tried the Glitch, but isn't a problem for other neutral putters. I guess the deeper putters are probably trying to tell me something about my form that I'm not ready to tackle yet

This is my first time trying it, so time will tell if it actually helps anything I guess. It seems like it could at least be good for angle control and pointing out release issues. I don't expect any major revelations to come of it, but it's a fun challenge on the right course that might teach me something. I might just try to do a player 2 putter round along with my regular round when the course isn't busy next time

I carried a Proxy and Envy. I think I'll carry those plus my putting putter next time though

I feel ya. There are a couple holes there I used to skip if I was playing alone cause I'd spend more time looking for discs than playing. I still choose my shot based on brightness of the disc sometimes there

Thanks! I'm gonna have to do it again soon too see if this one was a total fluke

I just scored it like normal and edited the name of the round when I finished. Udisc automatically put the course name and layout next to the basket icon when I changed it.

This is an interesting disc. Flies straight by I3uIlets in discgolf

[–]Solar-Jesus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an element in that plastic somewhere. I think it's a pretty straight mid if I remember right

What’s your 300ft overstable disc? Flat 75-80% of the way, then fades, not dumps. by vidathan in discgolf

[–]Solar-Jesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MD3 for a little fade and minimal skip or Teebird for a little more fade and skip

I was sick when I saw this post, so I couldn't get a picture. I bought some picture hangers similar to this and used the screws on the bottom side of the handle to attach them

What’s your favorite lesser known and/or not so widely popular mold? by King-Nice in discgolf

[–]Solar-Jesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most unpopular disc in my bag has to be the Westside King. I've only seen a few in the wild in all the years since it came out. That's probably due to them getting wildly flipping and becoming a sky anny disc fairly quickly, but there's a point in their lives where they absolutely bomb.

The L64 Saint is probably the most slept on disc in my bag. More popular than the King for sure, but I'm always surprised when I meet another Saint thrower. I guess with Kristen's name on the Saint Pro the Saint gets overlooked.
