The Southeast Junior Championships | Professional Disc Golf Association: "Has this ever happened to you? You’ve just finished a round, feeling pretty good about yourself and your score, only to find that some kid who doesn’t even look old enough to throw a disc played in your division…and beat you? If this were 20 years ago, the number of people who said yes to that question would be pretty slim. Anymore, not so much. Like most other activities in life, starting out young is often a huge advantage."

Are bad attitudes ruining disc golf?? - Disc Golf Course Review: "I had the displeasure of watching bad attitudes and lack of respect for other players recently. Am I the only one that is seeing this progressing? And in the process, rewarding those players who have bad attitudes with sponsorships at major disc golf manufacturers. Makes guys like me, who are not top pros, never want to play a major tournament again. Does these manufacturers hold some responability on managing their talent? Do they not enforce rules on ethics and sportsmanship? Or is it really about getting that last dollar from us fans who buy everything no matter who is slinging it?"

Reservoir Ridge Opening Officially on June 15 | GalionLive
Reservoir Ridge Opening Officially on June 15 | GalionLive: "Galion’s park system is about to add a brand-new attraction, one available at no charge and geared for any age. It also represents one of the finest of its kind in Ohio.
Some time ago, there was a meeting of the minds when local advocates of the national sporting and hobby phenomenon known as “disc golf” joined with members of the Galion City Council’s Parks, Recreation, and Streets Committee. The result of that collaboration was nothing short of outstanding. In less than two weeks, the newest disc golf course in Ohio will open for play just south of Galion on the shores of Amann’s and Amick’s Reservoirs."

How to throw sidearm: a breakdown of the basics | School of Disc Golf
How to throw sidearm: a breakdown of the basics | School of Disc Golf: "The disc golf throwing technique that goes by the names ‘sidearm’, ‘forehand’, ‘flick’ and ‘two-finger’ is the primary (or only) driving method for some players, a useful tool for others, and an enigma for many. Personally I fall into the second group, and before that spent many years with zero confidence in my sidearm shot. Sarah Hokom, on the other hand, is the poster child for the forehand throw, so between us we should be able to speak to the perspective of pretty much everyone who wants to add this shot to her or his arsenal."

Thumber disc behavior - Disc Golf Course Review
Thumber disc behavior - Disc Golf Course Review: "I initially assumed that a disc thrown with clockwise rotation from the perspective of above the flightplate would turn and fade the same way one does when thrown RHBH. This does not however seem to be the case. Whether I toss a high, gentle approach thumber with a rhyno that pancakes or a faster thumber with a banshee that initially turns clockwise, flattens upside down, continues to turn and stops turning with the flightplate facing left until it hyzer spikes and sits. Both times the disc seems to fly opposite of how I'd expect with my initial assumption. Why is this?"

Music on the course - Disc Golf Course Review
Music on the course - Disc Golf Course Review: "What are your thoughts on people playing music on the course? I hold off on rocking speakers, but headphones are cool if playing solo. Usually it's not a big deal, but I was followed by a group blasting some awful tunes yesterday. It was probably ICP and/or Kid Rock, but I'm not 100% sure."
