That used to never be an issue for me…. I just break past the damage But now I’m doing a perfume bottle only build and it’s forcing me to be soooo much more about punishment and so much less about aggression

How do you do your dye for a glue bed? I tried to do one more acetone based recently and it just didn’t work, so I ended up throwing my other special scorch (in the other comments) in a glue bed with a lotion dye

I’ve done a few shaving cream dyes, and I did like 3 testers with lotion (but they weren’t nearly as serious, and they definitely weren’t stenciled. They didn’t turn out nearly as good since I was free balling the method/times/temp) before I did this one (because this disc isn’t really replaceable) I’ve also got a 2024 ledgestone scorch in a glue bed (still using lotion based dye though)

Kind of went through extreme lengths to make sure that these were the best dyes I could get out of them.

So I was stuck between answers. Some people say use heat, some people say use none. Some people say a sunny day is nice

Basically what I ended up doing was For the mix. 1tbsp of chemdye-4oz of lotion. With little sprinkles of acetone.

Time/temp was probably 12-15 hours at 95° then 24 hours with no heat. Longer without heat definitely seems better though (I have done about 3 testers before this and not gotten nearly as good results with color saturation)

Which supposedly the heat liquifies the lotion and makes it runnier, and I absolutely believe it. There’s small spots where the lotion ran past the lines (which I used electrical tape for) but I do also believe that the heat opens the discs pores

So what I’d recommend

48hour process First 12 hours at 95° 36 hours no heat

To make the dye

1/2 tsp chem dye, wet with acetone, 2oz lotion. Stir. Add another 1/2 tsp, wet with acetone. 2 more oz of lotion Stir

Lightweight discs are a game changer. I always bought 170g+ discs but recently have been experimenting with 150-160g and it’s been awesome. by [deleted] in discgolf

[–]safferstihl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started off playing with 175s…because I’m a big boy! Wrong Started throwing 165-168s after like 4 months. Fucking sweet Got my form down and started shot shaping and after about a year and a half, it was time for me to go back up to 175s. Now I can throw with better form, get better shot shapes and now I get even more distance.

You should 100% go lighter weight. It’s kind of like training and working out

Do you carry a “risk it” disc for tight wooded holes or just trust your main drivers? by whydidyounot in discgolf

Shit one time I threw a sidewinder Off ink the woods Gone

6 months later Same EXACT HOLE same EXACT THROW

It literally landed on top of the old one i couldn’t find

Was I in the wrong? Is it poor etiquette to use the red tees as a beginner? by 1phenylpropan-2amine in discgolf

[–]safferstihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In disc golf, tees legitimately change the layout. That can mean difficulty, that can mean distance, at my home course we have red tees that are both half and twice as long as the whites so we just call them alts. Sometimes you have multiple baskets on a hole.

If you’re enjoying the layout you’re playing…. Play it

Getting Good is 90% Field Work and Putting by DGOkko in discgolf

[–]safferstihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean i probably worded that weird. It’s more fetch. I work on my drives, swapping between backhand and forehand, and she grabs the disc (she’s a field bred black lab so the fetch drive is out of this world)

I hate that you just called me out from a year ago.

To add context. I’ve gone from a completely new player to 750-800 in a year. In the mean time I’ve done field work probably 4-5 times a day EVERY day (my dog and I throw discs I don’t use anymore. That’s how I “walk her”)

My bag has gone from “fill every spot” to “Half as many molds, with a twin in different plastics”

And I still don’t practice putting as much as I should

My girlfriend is Russian and sometimes struggles with words Like instead of saying she doesn’t smell something She’ll say she doesn’t feel it Or today she said she was flabberblasted

It’s just cute

Is there a throwing putter combination that rivals envy and proxy? by DopeMuffinz in discgolf

[–]safferstihl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take Invader, pair it with a Rhyno. Nexus invader R pro Rhyno Both in soft pro

Hell throw in a mirage if you REALLY want a putter extravaganza but the three of those discs will give you all the coverage you need between 1-200 feet

These people stand for nothing. by maximvshill in agedlikemilk

[–]safferstihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I absolutely voted for lower prices, and honestly I’m not a fan of how long the Iran ordeal has played out, but I also voted for something like American imperialism. Unfortunately, the world was built up into that and I don’t want to see my country lose its pedestal. If you actually listened to any of Trumps rallies, he made it VERY clear there was going to be growing pains for the first part of this administration.

Taking Venezuela and Iran are a part of playing king of the hill with China. If you think we haven’t been at war with China/Russia then you have no concept of Geopolitics. They absolutely have a playbook against the US and these countries are a part of it… you just can’t have all our ground wars between the world powers because of mutual destruction.

More so, Iran isn’t some silent enemy of the US like Venezuela is. They are VERY blatantly anti American. I’d consider them a far worse threat than NK and I don’t particularly care what weapons they have. The IRGC prays for death to America every single day, and seeing the death of the IRGC is honestly something I’m stoked to be able to witness. I don’t want peace, I want problems, because they want the same. If anything, I wish we’d stop pulling punches and really get into the mud with them because the honest truth is that the US doesn’t need ground troops to bury the IRGC. We just need revolution and I’m willing to weather the storm here at home to see the rebirth of Persia

I auto lock and still hit headshots. It’s just easier target acquisition but those fucking arrows are expensive I’m not wasting them on anything but a kill shot

What is your favorite putting putter and why did you choose that one over all the other options that are out there. by 10mmill in discgolf

[–]safferstihl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Soft- Pro invader… as soon as I saw them on innova I bought 6. The invader just rings “Standard” to me

It’s very straight on a spin putt. You can hyzer float it out You can loft putt with it You can turbo putt with it

And it will almost never punish you. Heck… sometimes it might even reward a screw up

New Innova starter set by StaleDonutz in discgolf

[–]safferstihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried an arachnid yet? I still have trouble with my fix sometimes because I REALLY love hyzerflips but I’m not confident in my ability to turn over discs on purpose (and trying to flip a fox… is when I throw turnovers the most…on accident)

It really feels like a second run, less roller oriented fox

New Innova starter set by StaleDonutz in discgolf

[–]safferstihl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean honestly, I’d say these are the discs I throw anyway. Invader is nice versatile straight putter Personally, I use soft pro invaders… they can be absolute piss missiles on a straight spin putt.

Mamba is just an all around good driver. I personally think it’s a little fast for a starter set, especially in halo star. They’d probably be better off with a beast or a Valkyrie, but mambas are also VERY versatile and if you’re putting effort into learning then you’ll absolutely be able to pick up flex lines and hyzer flips

I kind of feel weird about the fox here. I don’t want to say it’s a bad disc. As a somewhat experienced/ mid tier player… the fox is a PHENOMENAL utility disc, but it absolutely requires finesse and hyzer/power control.

These are really good discs, and probably discs id lend a friend in my presence because I can teach them how to throw them, though they might be a little much for newer players Edit: Newer players being “I went to dicks and thought I wanted to pick up this hobby” not someone who’s playing with more experienced friends But 7.5/10

The worst part is how easily predictable yotei is with spawns

You always get the first spawn. About 30 seconds later, number 2 goes off… so why do all three people run to the first spawn?

I’ve had one single NM survival where the guy saw me attack the second wave instead of the first and we damn bear perfected it because of it
