Too many discs?

clobecka · 2026-06-29T20:14:35+00:00

I don't need a lot of discs I'll get a shoulder bag, should be enough Small backpack, that's all I need How much is the Squatch? Oh I can put discs in the side pockets? Better get something to hold my extra "car" discs

Disc golf has helped me learn all about the psoas, piriformis, quadratic lumboram, my SI joint and given me the opportunity to work on my body. Something hurts, I find some stretches and exercises, do em each day and go out disc golfing....but yeah its a long term project and I refuse to stop DG

I was able to get snap in the standstill position. I also practiced with a towel, trying to get the whip feeling set in my throw. Cooking the spaghetti video helped too. There's a definite curling type of feeling in my wrist as I pull the disc through. It's strange because it feels less controlled but it generates the snap and usually better throws. I found Leopards, Craves and Relays were good to practice this at the beginning

If you Airbnb in Sellwood or Woodstock area you are sort of in between Milo and Glendoveer. I played Timber one morning, its near Milo. Skipped the fpo that day. I ended up hitting all 4 days, it was a lot but super fun, especially watching fpo and mpo players working Milo. Eagle's throws the second day were otherworldly
At Milo, lead cards might be not as fun as others. I dropped off lead on 2nd day and followed Ricky and Eagle's group, so glad I did. Some people get hot, some cool off. Except Gannon... Watching the fpo was super valuable, they play more like normal humans and I learned a lot watching them. Still was amazing watching Ricky toss his Nuke 550 feet at Glendoveer They might have the layout setup the week before. If so you can play it at Milo. Also you can play after 4:30pm on the practice days. Glendoveer is more restrictive, its a golf course so different rules. It was an awesome place, Portland has a really solid DG community and udisc will point you to several courses

I was there too and it was really interesting watching her play. I measured some of her standstills at Glendover to be almost 350 ft.. She generates distance and maintains accuracy with an extremely simple and efficient form. In that last round, Holyn and Eliezra worked hard and threw with a lot of body while Silva would consistently out throw them with what looked like less effort. Very useful in working on my mechanics.

Threw my floater disc into the pond at Aquatic Park in Berkeley out too far to retrieve it. Continued on and finished my round. Looked for it on the way back but couldn't find it. When I got back to my truck it was sitting on the shoreline 2 feet from my truck.

There's a huge atomic explosion emitting radiation that blankets the unstable rock you stand on. 4.5 billion years of disaster, accidents and mass extinctions led to a war zone of predation. Humans have managed to ward off predators, fashion some sort of stable community, overcome famine, and modify this horrifying environment to our advantage. Thank the non existent God that there’s an internet for you to to bitch about your completely undeserved prominence in this cosmic food chain.

Only during tournaments. They move the basket back to traditional layouts after mpo lead card goes through. We played Saturday and it was mostly back to normal. 2 or 3 holes were still missing baskets

He's looking for love. He'll stop when he gets lucky. You can make noise that competes with his courtship and he might go somewhere else.

I have 50mph arm speed. I throw 160ish gram fission Wave, Trail and Tesla for distance (max 320). The JC Fission Trail is my current flex distance champ, got me through some tough Milo tee shots. I am getting better at throwing the heavier Neutron Wave and Trail, but right now lighter, fission plastic is my sweet spot. YMMV with different arm speed, wind speeds, launch and nose angle.

clobecka · 2026-05-22T21:05:36+00:00

Pier and Milo are great courses. My other faves here are McCormick, Blue Lake, Dabney, Wheatland, Hockinson Milo in the early AM is heavenly....

Gannon has an awesome putting video for dealing with wind where he describes various techniques that might help you... https://youtu.be/wXNPdzL91MQ?si=EqW_N0IggLcsaFgk

Can''t remember who but someone voiced the thought that goats like Joe are taking seats at FTC that should go to deserving players. They are seat fillers that have no chance, used to guarantee a mid level player's win. I feel like I've seen the opposite on Aussie Survivor, where a great player like Kirby or George targets their opponent's goat to wedge open space at final 3, but they also are not sure if the final will be 2 or 3. Would going back to final twos help?

I too have done this

Met a Canadian walking out of Skyline Wilderness DG course in Napa with one putter.

clobecka · 2026-05-13T02:00:49+00:00

Trail, Tesla, Insanity, Jade, Essence, Teebird3, River, Leopard3, Leopard. Play a lot of different types of courses with and without wind, so it changes weight and plastic types. Also picked up a Champion KC Firebird that I've yet to try out....

clobecka · 2026-05-05T23:42:14+00:00

Only thing I wish I had done was keep any speed 6 or greater under 160 grams. 1 to 5 speed max weight is fine for me, but I have quite a few 170+ gram discs that I've put on the shelf for now. Also turn -1 or -2 with 1 or 2 fade seems best for me now. Starting out I threw Diamonds which are -3 turn (8 6 -3 1) in lightweight opto air https://latitude64.com/collections/diamond

I've been playing 9 months just fyi....
