I have a hard time finding satisfying reviews of disc golf gear. Even disc reviews, which there are an abundance of, seem lacking in most cases. I’m sitting here trying to decide whether or not I should spend my hard earned money on something, and the reviews just aren’t helping. So, time to start writing reviews that I would want …
One Thing I Don’t Want in my Disc Golf Bag
Find out the one thing that almost no one wants in their disc golf bag.
Am Worlds, The Best and Worst Disc Golf I’ve Ever Played
With the Am Worlds disc golf tournament kicking off in Minnesota this week, I thought it only appropriate that I share my own Am Worlds experience. “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” Nothing better describes my participation in the 2007 Am Worlds in Milwaukee, WI. Worlds is something everyone should go to at least …
Do You Really Want Fries With That?
This isn’t a post about weight loss. It’s not a post about cholesterol. This isn’t going to be someone talking down to you about how you are a horrible person because you like yummy, delicious food. Mmmmmmm, french fries! (Read that with a Homer Simpson voice) OK, hang on while I clean the drool off of my keyboard. My normal …
Do You Have the Heart of a Champion?
We weren’t even out of the car when I heard the question I already knew was coming. “$1 skins?” “Sure” I replied. “Love playing with you, you’re always willing to donate.” “Yeah, yeah, yeah. One of these days I’ll get my money back.” Almost all of my disc golf friends are better than me. Most of them are mid 900’s rated. …
And the Farthest Flying Disc Golf Disc Is……
Distance. It’s the holy grail for most disc golfers. We chase it like we chased the opposite sex when we hit puberty. We think about distance. We talk about distance. We post about distance online. We buy apps to validate our distance in the field. On the whole, it is a life long addiction that can never be satisfied. Hit the 300′ mark and we immediately seek 350′. Hit 400′, not good enough. Hit 800′, you are probably posting on a message board (cut that out, no one believes you!!!).
The #1 Thing You Can Do To Improve Your Disc Golf Game.
How do I get better? It’s at the heart of almost every disc golf question asked on forums, blogs, campfire conversations, and FaceBook groups. There’s a million ways the question gets asked. “What discs should I throw?” “How can I add distance to my throw?” “What disc would you throw on this hole?” “Here’s a video of my form, don’t …
Get out to Round Lake, IL now, you won’t regret it!
3 Years in the making, Squaw Creek Gold is a reality!!! In 2011, Brett Comincioli, club president of the Discontinuum Disc Golf Club of North Eastern Illinois, went to the Round Lake Area Park District with a dream. A dream of bringing a championship level disc golf course to NE Illinois. 3 years later, that dream is a reality. What …
Happy Summer!!!
At 5:41 am CST, Saturday June 21, 2014, it will officially be summer!!! That’s right folks. Summer. Is. Here. And I have to say, it’s about damn time. This girl has made a home off of hole 4 at my home course. She’s pretty fearless. Here’s to baseball, cook outs, lazy afternoons, and most of all disc golf! Happy summer …
Why are you punching yourself in the face on the disc golf course?!?!
We are our own worst enemy. With all the negative voices coming from the news, our coworkers, our friends, and our families, the biggest negative voice in most of our lives lives right inside our own head. This can be especially true on the disc golf course. A bunch of years back, I was a regular at our local leagues. …
