Re: Disc Golf
Yeah it's rarely a good idea to play in the rain. IT's easy to slip and pull something like a groin. Think of the children!!!Dr. Van Nostrand wrote:I tried playing in the rain again today, and this time it really poured for a bit, i need to not try that anymore. Im sure most of it was because of the rain but i played terrible, probably somewhere around 20 - 25 over par, but i was slipping on the tee boxes and the discs were slipping out of my hand, so i did what i could with the conditions

Re: Disc Golf
and i was scared of slipping the whole time, so i would either try for a good tee shot and slip, or i would half ass the shot so i wouldnt slip and throw it terrible anyway. i think yesterday ended my disc golf in the rain, atleast when i know its already gonna be rainingFuck You Jobu wrote:Yeah it's rarely a good idea to play in the rain.

Re: Disc Golf
My first official 18 holes this morning. Cumberland Green. What's the rule when one's disc lands a little over a foot away from a really pissed off bull snake?
I threw 5 different discs today. I need so much practice.

Do you have to keep track of how many shots it took to get rid of the snake and add it to your score?Scott wrote:Throw discs at the snake until it moves.mookie wrote:My first official 18 holes this morning.

Re: Disc Golf
Good thing it was a casual round for us. Mostly just an opportunity for me to get out there and see what goes. I threw that River I have.
That thing has some zing. I used my putter to drive quite a bit because of the wind, but then I put too much on it within putting range.
There were moments when I felt like T Rex out there and then there were moments when I did ok.
Fishy and his pal Janis and I about the 3rd or 4th hole; Janis' disc landed near the snake. He didn't see it until it coiled up and started hissing. That's about when he started screaming. LOL. Just shy of screaming like a girl.
He looked like this as he leaped away from it:

Re: Disc Golf
I heard him and turned my head in just enough time to see the leap he took. It scared the heck out of him. I could have sworn I heard it rattle, but it was just the dry grass that was shaking. So I didn't help calm him when I yelled "I heard it rattle!"

Re: Disc Golf
You've got that right, so we are gonna try to use an old bicycle wheel for the top, cut the bottom off an old garbage can with a piece of ply wood in it for the basket and a stand that we can hook a pole to. Hopefully it worksStrat wrote:Dr. Van Nostrand wrote:Very nice, we are just trying to cheaply build a basket for practiceStrat wrote:My buddy just bought a 40 acre parcel out in the mountains about an hour west of us....
