The best one here, IMO, is "Lincoln Ridge" which used to be "Banklink". Really great course, lots of varied terrain, up hills, down hills, around corners.
Today's my last day of holiday...maybe I'll go play today.

I have a Champion Valkyrie and a Supersoft Wizard putter. I used to have like 10 discs but some cunt I loaned them to stole them, and honestly, I never used many others except in weird circumstances. I like the Eagle and Star in weird curvy shots. I used to throw 400 feet but since I got sick and stopped playing for a couple years, now I can maybe throw 150-200 at best.
Man, was I ever good. I shot a 4 on Idlewild's hole 15. It was the pinnacle of my disc golf game. It's a thousand foot hole on rolling hills.

I think that round I shot -10 or -11.
Wow that course would destroy me. Here's the one we frequent.

I had _2_ Eclipses, one was the hard-edged driver, and the other was a softer one that must've been a really old design that I used for midrange shots. I found it at Blendon Woods, and still has the owner's name in it (sorry, Dan Woods). I had an Innova Phenix(sp) that I bought as a beginner and I couldn't throw it for shit. Even when I got decent, it was 50/50 if I would be in the trees. And I had an Aviar putter.
I should, if nothing else, take my daughter disk golfing and do Blendon Woods with nothing but an old frisbee. I remember going silently nuts when there was a big family out there in front of me with their frisbees. At least then I can get some payback.

We're both still pretty terrible, but it gives us a great excuse to walk around for a couple of hours, and the dog loves it, too.
We recently splurged and bought ourselves a couple of nicer drivers, but I think that was probably a mistake. I know my wife's new one is out of her league, but psychologically she thinks it's better. My new one goes a little farther, but I also think my throw has improved.
We see people on the course all the time with huge bags full of disks, but I can't imagine ever really needing more than 3.

Exactly.

Also watch a YouTube video or two on how to throw a disc golf disc. I originally tried to throw it like a regular frisbee and it didn't work well.
I've thought about getting one of those 3-disc sets with a bag, but I have fun with just my one disc and water bottle.

My preferred time for playing was 4am on a Sunday morning while speeding my tits off (nothing else to do as everyone else was asleep). Tried it once on acid but lost the Frisbee after about the third throw....disappeared into the glittery ether or something.
Have never tried it without being absolutely fucked....I thought it was a requirement.
