I have been out a few times in the last few weeks. I need to deepen my disc collection because I have lost my putters and midranges from bad shots and lack of skills.

Putting with drivers is not recommended.

I have a local-ish guy that sells lots of used discs for 5 bucks, time to give him a visit or hit the 'bay.

I have no backhand skill or I would use putters for 100 ft+ drives
Basically everything I do consists of a side-arm drive- and putting. If I am out of putting range I am hurting real bad :-)

To any West Oregon golfers, I am organizing a disc golf league at Horning's Hideout that will begin on April 20th. More details to come.

I know this is a bit old, but man do I love disc golf. Started this summer and played about twice a week for the rest of the season. Really wish there was a course close here in Chicago like there is back home in Michigan.

Looks like Disc Golf posting is far and few between, so to speak. Thought I'd shake the bushes a bit. I'm in foothills western NC and play once or twice a week and have been for about ten years. Anyone else?
[Reply]

I play occasionly, good times but I lose a lot of discs.
[Reply]

If your not losing a disc here and there, you just aren't trying hard enough.:-)

I'm lucky, I've got two nines about a block away, two totally separate styles of courses. pretty fun but gets busy sometimes.
[Reply]

I'm pretty lucky too. I live in a rural western North Carolina county with four courses, 1 public that is pretty decent and 3 private courses that are excellent... better yet one of the private layouts is mine.:-)
[Reply]

private? I have never seen a private disc golf course.
[Reply]

No ****. Ya gotta start checking around. Ask nicely and discretely about home/private courses in your area. As a fellow local course ownwer says, " Its a little bit of love in someonesback yard." Size and quality will vary just as it does on public courses, but in general private courses are more fun and more challenging. One of our local private courses is on land the guy lives on and rents. He couln't afford to outfit a course with baskets so friends pitched in and "loaned" him 18 baskets to be used on the "temp" course and go back to the donater if/when the course is closed. This course isnamed BorrowedTime.:-) My course is Ramcat Ridge. Come see us if your ever in the area.

I've been known to throw a disc or two in my time...

I only have 1 shot down so far and that is my tomahawk... being left handed I can't get a feel for side arm... I do all my putting frisbee style...

My discs are a mix up of river re-sales and whatever was cheap at the outdoors shop in town... I have some more firm and some more pliable plastics... 2 putters, 3 intermediates, 3 drivers... all banged up and scratched but they throw ok... more or less...

I play at Western's campus course, Davidson College's course when I am back home, and another private course on the land of a very cool guy by the name of Mr. Bracket (Bracket's Bluff

As I mentioned before I am not all that great at it... but for me its more about getting outdoors, smoking a cigar, maybe having a beer, hanging out with friends and throwing stuff... :-)

Dave Brackett and sons are GOOD people. Haven't seen him since their recent property issues but plans are in the works to move part of the course onto his land beyond the house. You're not but an hour from my place when you are at Davidson. Holler and we'll get in a round.:-)
[Reply]

Sounds like a plan... IDK next time i will be there... but Ill drop ya a pm...
[Reply]

I'm there!:-)
[Reply]

I love his clubhouse... nothing like being able to buy reasonably priced beer on the 9th hole... :-)
[Reply]

Holy crap!!! How have I missed this thread!!! Disc golf is my other lifestyle. I live for it. Worked at a disc golf store, run clinics for kids at schools, and was the former president of the Minnesota Frisbee Association. LOVE this sport. Love seeing a thread here about it!
[Reply]

And the occasional tournie with Hooters girls driving the beer carts... always a nice touch.:-)
[Reply]

I first thought this thread said " Disco Golf "

Heheheh, thenyou'd really be confused if you read some of it and saw one of the courses was named Cranberry Disco.;-)
