How to avoid losing your disc golf discs

How to avoid losing your disc golf discs: "The throwing into the woods and long grass is the hardest to stop. If you do this, the best way to locate the disc is to try to see from landmarks that are stationary where it was last time you saw it. Try to pick at least 2 things that you can visualize a relationship with. Then walk as directly to that spot as you can. There are not many options here, other than pay close attention to where the disc landed. If you do, you should be able to avoid losing your disc golf discs."
