Innova is dope. Discmania is dope. Most manufacturers are dope. Companies make like 75% the same discs with a few signature discs for each brand. Why you don't like Innova?

Anton is getting his white pride tattoo covered. There was an announcement from Innova (the same day as #respecthergame came out) What else can he do?

This local guy has a good video. He's a math teacher so good at teaching I'd say: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwfD3oLMoKI Also I've been reading a pitching book someone recommended me. Once I started thinking about hip/shoulder separation more my forehand is getting better. Haven't been doing it too much because I tried to throw some hard the other day and hurt myself. Final tip I overheard. Puff your chest out at the end. It was told as kind of like pushing a football practice sled (which I've never done) but the whole idea of getting your chest up and out also helps.

DrBouvenstein posted:So any brands/models that are a little wider and taller than most? Or should I give up on a lighter runner model and just get big ol' clonky hiking boots? I have some Oboz, I'd say there is plenty of room in the ball of the foot and they're the most durable of this stye of shoe I've ever had vs Salomon, Adidas, Columbias. The ones I got are $145 though and most of their line looks pretty technical but they have some low waterproof ones that look mostly like normal trail-ish shoes. https://obozfootwear.com/products/mens-sypes-low-waterproof I did have a hot spot on the top of my plant foot over the ball but it turned out the tongue had a little extra fold in it that got overlooked in QA, once I smoothed it out it went away (and stopped tying that part of the shoe so drat tight, now I only snug them tight higher up on my foot in general on any shoes, feet are much happier.) My other tip is though: Just wear normal sneakers and save the waterproof trail runners for when it's actually wet outside. unbuttonedclone fucked around with this message at 18:43 on Apr 2, 2021 |

DrBouvenstein posted:Well it's spring in Vermont, so that's gonna be a while. I think they sell those Oboz at REI, I would go check them out. They have an aggressive tread, but not too aggressive for concrete when you use those kinda pads. And when you do, the sole has barely "ground" down at all from throwing.

Rotten Cookies posted:Disc golf fuckin' owns. While I've had the innova starter set for like 2 years, this summer I've finally been bitten by the bug. Solid 5 weeks of going out every weekend to play with friends. Even if I have a bad round, I'm still just throwing disc with friends in the woods, so a good time. Awesome. Sometimes I want to get good and practice a lot, sometimes I just wanna go goof off and throw discs. It takes a while to find a putting stroke that works for you. Try adjusting your grip different ways. Also make sure your follow through is pointing at the basket and use your brain to visualize hitting one individual link. Helps a lot.

I DO EVERY MOVE AND I DO EVERY MOVE HARD. MAKIN WHOOSHING SOUNDS WHEN I SLAM DOWN SOME PUTTS OR EVEN WHEN I MESS UP TECHNIQUE. NOT MANY CAN SAY THEY THREW IN AN ENVY FROM 247 FT. I CAN. I SAY IT AND I SAY IT OUTLOUD EVERYDAY TO PEOPLE IN MY COLLEGE CLASS AND ALL THEY DO IS PROVE PEOPLE IN COLLEGE CLASS CAN STILL BE IMMATURE JEKRS. AND IVE LEARNED ALL THE LINES AND IVE LEARNED HOW TO MAKE MYSELF AND MY APARTMENT LESS LONELY BY SHOUTING EM ALL. 2 HOURS INCLUDING WIND DOWN EVERY MORNIng (I threw in an Envy 185' or so the other night to win league by a stroke.)

Johnny Truant posted:Played the same course Mon-Thurs of this week, short tees to long baskets first 2 days then short tees to short baskets second two days, feels good Are you forehanding or backhanding your Wraith and Boss and what plastics are they? They're both stabler discs depending on the plastic. Sidewinder FD Leopard/Leopard3 Escape Essence Undertaker Heat Beast Hatchet Vandal River Then you got Prodigy discs but I can't remember what they have in that area. I like 9-speed rims the best but there's tons of slower fairway drivers. Any of those in premium plastic should work well. You want something like 9/4-5/0-(-3)/0-3 to compliment your more stable discs. Get a Reactor over a Buzzz if they have them they're dope.

Those are cool but not legal in a sanctioned tournament. Sharpies can also make cool art on discs if you don't want to get into the whole dying thing and they hold up pretty well.

Tiny Chalupa posted:Whelp trying Disc Golf for the first time tomorrow. Apparently we have a pretty large and active community of disc golf people and a few courses are only 30 minutes away from me. Got invited to meet up with some people and pretty drat excited You picked the right discs. Well, I don't like the Aviar too much but the Mako3 is great. I bought one today actually. Next on your list for drivers is probably the Leopard or Leopard3. Elysium posted:

A tomahawk or a thumber. They pan different directions. There is also the grenade, but that uses more of a backhand motion. Look up "disc golf utility shots" on Youtube for an overview. Be careful, they hurt my arm a lot but my rotator cuff is kind of a wimp.

highme posted:Yep, that was it, thanks! Why you're at it, look into forehand rollers. They are a utility shot I use all the time. Not so much for drives but for getting out of trouble/dealing with low ceilings with a putter or mid.

Just sign it and have whomever sign it that's with you. Don't matter. I got one at league Fri for $200. Hadn't had one in almost a year!

The Yikun base plastic is the same as Discmania Active base plastic and is actually very good.

A guy goes by Disc Golf Strong has a lot of disc golf strength stuff. And when you practice putting don't just keep doing it when you stop paying attention, that doesn't do any good. When you stop concentrating quick practicing.

NickRoweFillea posted:Anybody have a recommendation for custom print jobs on a disc? My best friend of two decades (and the guy who got me into this hobby) is moving up north and I want to get him a disc with our picture on it as a forget-me-not. For just one you'll probably want someone to make a stencil and die it or you can do a Dyemax disc from Dynamic Discs. The latter is a full color print of whatever on a a disc. I think they're 30 ish bucks and disc choice varies.

I have an Uplink which is more stable than a paradox but still flippy as gently caress. I use it to get out of trouble. Like a forehand that needs to go left or a backhand that needs to go right.

You can get a pro, DX, or used Destroyer or lighter. Or just throw a Tern instead.

You don't have to pay for it to use it in league - you just have to pay if you want to keep track of more than X rounds per year. And it's like a couple bucks a month. Well worth it.

It's good for getting good - you got to throw it real smooth for it to go straight and smooth.

Gotta buy used Innova discs if you want something understable. Everything new is always overstable for a while. MVP often do what they say out of the box unless it's that cosmic plastic. Trilogy breaks in real fast. Good for US discs.
