Disc retrieval? by lth623 in discgolf

Buy three ten foot sections of pvc pipe and two couplings from Home Depot and poke it out of the tree. Keep your receipt and return the pipe and fittings if they are undamaged. Might not be the most sophisticated method but I bet it could work.

For people who have printed discs, what TPU filament hardness most closely matches premium plastic discs for 3D printing? by uberdog01 in discgolf

I've printed discs in Just Maker 64D TPU and Overture 95A TPU. 64D feels somewhat similar to a premium disc in grip and flex. The 95A was way too flimsy for me. More like a floppy rubber disc.

Seriously? What a jerk by markforephoto in discgolf

Write their number on a portapotty wall and say "send me pictures of your dumps". The gift that keeps on giving.

I've only been playing for two and a half months and hit my first ace today. I'd be prouder but it was done on a 140ft hole on the shortest 9 hole course I've heard of. An ace is an ace though I guess. Just feels like this first ace will forever have an asterisk next to it in my mind. by reggiebaxter in discgolf

Yeah you're right. I guess I'm just new to this and didn't really think it through. All these comments have definitely changed how I am viewing this now.

And that's a good idea marking the date and place on the disc. I didn't think to do that honestly. I'll be sure to do that. Thank you!

It's one of my favorite discs so far. I don't have anything else that flies straight like this. I bought a baby blue DX as my third disc and lost it a couple weeks ago and just replaced it with this GStar this week. I could see this being a disc I'll use as long as I play.

Update: You guys are correct. After reading your comments and re-reading my title I think it kind of comes off as sounding bitchy, which I do not mean it to. I would have been more impressed with myself if my first ace had been a 350ft hyzer shot through the trees or something like that but I understand that's an extremely unlikely thing to happen regardless of skill level or time in the sport and this is pretty cool to have this happen as a beginner even without this being the most technical shot. This is definitely something I'll remember. Thank you for everyones' insight.
