Paul McBeth: 1050 - Disc Golf Course Review

Paul McBeth: 1050 - Disc Golf Course Review: "I'm not sure if this was mentioned much here, but I'm sort of getting blown away by how good Paul McBeth is. This year he has 4 wins, and nothing worse than 3rd place out of 10 tourneys played. (That's AFAIK...the PDGA lags with their record keeping)"

Are bad attitudes ruining disc golf?? - Disc Golf Course Review

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?"

Is brand loyalty stupid? - Page 13 - Disc Golf Course Review

Is brand loyalty stupid? - Page 13 - Disc Golf Course Review: "^ HAha....I just mean, using only 1 brand always and forever, is dumb....You may miss out on something that works very well for you. BUT If you have been there and done that with all the brands and just want to go 100% one brand for the fun of it, then go for it. I just meant, Only using/buying one brand and bashing all other brands just because its not the one YOU have is dumb. That is all....I have a buddy who is 100% innova and likes to trash talk, and a buddy who is 100% prodigy and has no interest in any disc if its not Prodigy.....so....I think thats kinda dumb."

300ft drive + 200ft up shot = competitive anywhere? - Disc Golf Course Review

300ft drive + 200ft up shot = competitive anywhere? - Disc Golf Course Review: "I've played alot of courses and it seems now that I can drive 300ft+ and make approach shots (putter/midrange) from 200ft+, I can at least be competitive at just about any course. This doesn't mean "winning" it just means it's good enough to play decent and at least be competitive on typical cards. Has anyone else had a similar thought at this point in their game or am I still a bit off? lol.. Thx."
