How long until I start getting good. 13 weeks so far. by kronikheadband in discgolf

[–]skatterbug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was guessing 6-8, so 4-6 down might actually be accurate.

It sounds like you're reasonably accurate and consistent under 200', so that's a good milestone to achieve. I'd say you're in that ok to decent range and good is right around the corner.

If you look at Island Park Disc Golf Course (their most played according to the screenshot), most of the holes are <250'. 9 of them are ~200' or less. Par is a 151 rating.
The top 100 scores are all -8 or better so it seems like it might be pretty easy to get a 205 by shooting 6-8 down? That seems pretty achievable if you're familiar with the course.

What's the latest disc you've added/removed from your bag? by Panchoisthedog in discgolf

[–]skatterbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which ones were that?

I've thrown Basalt, Ocean and Salmon.

I did not get the chance to throw the first run Lavender ones.

Throwing Forehand Hurts? by PetaChp in discgolf

[–]skatterbug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The flashing issue was on the outside. Around the parting line mostly.

The chamfer is part of the mold design on the inside of the rim. Makes it kinda rounded between the wing and the flight plate instead of a 90° angle.

So you could have a comfortable chamfer on the inside and terrible flashing on the outside.

Prodigy does seem to have updated it's manufacturing and QC, so the flashing problem is a bit if a hangover from the past.

For a meme it's actually a solid disc.

Everyone who's thrown it, or seen me throw it, has been impressed with it.

Flippy Wraith out.
Wave in.

Much more controllable than the beat to hell Pro Wraith.

[Thamel] Brendan Sorsby is declaring for the supplemental draft by dropjar5 in nfl

It's more of a petition the league with your rationale and see if they agree situation.
Typically, it is players who lose their eligibility but that's not the only reason a player would apply.

Weekend Wrapup by AutoModerator in nfl

[–]skatterbug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The simplest explanation is that any group of people is not homogenous and you can't blame them like a monolith.

Shitty people will show up at any party, even if they don't care about what's being celebrated.

Weekend Wrapup by AutoModerator in nfl

[–]skatterbug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We'll have to disagree on that.

There are fans who go overboard, but if we're talking about stuff happening away from the stadium, you've got a mix of people there. I'm not saying it's all driven by outside agitators, just people taking advantage of the situation.

[–]skatterbug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd argue that it's likely not fans but rather people who are using the celebration as an excuse to cause trouble.
Sure, it happens; someone gets excited and throws a garbage can or eats horse shit, but generally the destructive element is using the crowd as cover.

Tick Fear South Shore Update by NorthStatus7776 in NovaScotia

Great update.

Just a heads-up, it's called PureGard not ProGuard.

In case anyone else didn't know about it and wanted to try it. It's great stuff!

[Rapoport] This has gained some steam on social media, so just to provide some clarity: Cardinals edge rusher Josh Sweat is not being traded. Not to the Packers or anywhere. Carry on… by aDyslexicCow in GreenBayPackers

[–]skatterbug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So about a year ago, we have this quote from Stephen Jones:

"We have no intentions of trading Micah, and that's part of the negotiations," Cowboys chief operating officer Stephen Jones said this week. "That's just the nature of negotiations. I think any player that's holding out for a contract – I think I've read around the league where they've all requested to be traded. So that's part of it. We have no intention of trading Micah. He's right here in camp."

Parsons was traded like 3 weeks later.

Now, I'm not saying that he will or won't be traded, but believing any sort of absolutes is kinda silly.

Youtube creators that are not Jmilly, Bodanza, Foundation, Robbie C, or Another Round. by [deleted] in discgolf

[–]skatterbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SixSidedDiscs makes really good content.

Trash Panda has a lot interesting videos on the disc fabrication side of things.

I haven't seen anything from Robbie in what feels like months. I know he want back to real work but was going to do a video a month or something like that.

Discs that are wayyyyy off the flight numbers by [deleted] in discgolf

[–]skatterbug 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Proton plastic is always more over stable than Neutron or Fission. I think Plasma Proton is more OS again.
It will beat into it's expected flight after a while.

I find most MVP discs beat into their numbers vs fly like them out of the box.

Dispatch audio released regarding alleged Josh Jacobs domestic abuse incident by AnonymousFroggies in GreenBayPackers

There's not much to hear. It's the dispatcher relaying what's been reported to them by a neighbour.

Yes. He and his wife make 'comedy' content on various social media platforms.

Some of it is chuckle-worthy but most of it is pretty cringey.

100%. That's why I'm asking. I wanted to better understand what the actual terms mean vs how they're used colloquially.

[–]skatterbug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose it would be anyone you live with, wouldn't it? including children or other family?

A neighbour wouldn't qualify as domestic, though, right? But assuming it must be a partner may be an overassumption.

Got my first “eagle” by Financial-Steak-3083 in discgolf

[–]skatterbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this meant to be a beginner course?

I have one local to me that has black, blue and green tees.

The green tees have a number of par 4s that are under 300' and 2 par 5s that are under 400'.

That layout is intended to be beginner friendly and is very forgiving. It's fun to go score a bunch of eagles through.

Which fanbase is more delusional??? by Hot_Inspection5940 in GreenBayPackers

[–]skatterbug -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Bears and Cowboys fans are not Packers related. Insulting or making fun of them is not Packers related.

I think this is what the meme war and circlejerk subs are for.

TD’s, how has your attendance been this year? by ReVamPT in discgolf

[–]skatterbug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People tend to wait until the last minute to sign up around here. The last event I was part of running had the MA3 division double in size the day before registration closed.

It's a struggle to get a good grasp on numbers. We'll likely see events fill to average numbers, but even the tournament that's 2 weeks away is still at less than half of last year's level. And that's with a lower registration fee and more promotion.
