Firstly, I do not speak for the club that was initially "commented to" by one of the members from this club. I have been kindly asked by the creator of said club not to comment again using his club name. So - sorry - for mentioning that club below i…

Well, that turned out nice. Seems like a silly reason to the leave the group. Things like this will happen considering the makeup of this site. I mean you see Innova fans going off on Discraft fans and vice versa. Honestly, what is the difference?..…

I don't know what happened in here yesterday, but let's not degrade to personal attacks or use of language you wouldn't use around your grandma. People can argue, effectively and rationally, all they want online, especially in these groups, that's k…

Well I'm going to leave this group now. I come here to enjoy myself. Not for members to go to other group post a comment that is just going to start stuff on other groups. Now you have this stupid religious battle that will surely go on and on with…

You don't see the rest of us pouring out our thoughts on your jesus group. This is very rude and disrespectful to come onto this group because you have a problem with one person. Simply go to that person's page and sending your bible thumping crap…

If you have a problem with a person in this group you need to send the message to him. Not to the whole group, we don't want to hear your religious b.s.

Thank you, Eric, for the comment on Disc Golfers for Jesus group. Would welcome further discussion on a more rational basis; I don't see this forum as a place for immature rants or ridicule of others personal views. Very intrigued by the comments…

Mary Beth Doyle Park and Wetland Preserve..better known as BROWN PAAAAAARK!

Today for the first time I shot the new course at (Brown) Mary Beth Doyle Park. The baskets are not in yet, but the poles are. It's been something like a three and a half year wait to get my old home course back in the ground. Sadly, at the LAST minute (the day they began pouring cement), the city took away our holes #1-5 by the water, ruining years of planning and designing and hundreds of hours of my dad's hard work. (I had almost nothing to do with the new layout ).

Thanks to their last seco… Continue

The Lone 4

I just finished what was quite possible the most solid round of disc I've ever thrown. '51' on the Toboggan, besting my previous by 5 strokes and I haven't played it in a year (temp. course).

This is how it went down. Overshot #1 by about 90 ft straight past and layed up for the 3. Shot 50 ft up onto the hill to the left side of the fairway on the near 800 ft. steep uphill #2, then bombed up the middle to left side tall grass, layed up for the easy 4. Threw a 600 ft downhill drive on the 900 ft… Continue

BYOB

Thanks to all the players and supporters!

It was a big success today, 22 players took home over 150% more than they paid for today (25 minis, 2 hats, and over 30 discs in prizes) . 175$ cash pay-day to Pro winner Daemon Stahlin who won in a very tight battle over Anthony Bee and Tim Gacioch the whole day.

Other winners: Wade Sullivan, Am 1.
Terry Calhoun, Am Masters.
Emma Fotjik, Women.
Steven Blink, Am 3.

Thanks also to William Gilbert for the help, Cassidy Mayne and Mark Kruse (check out hi… Continue

Top 25 - not anymore

I went out with my dad and did the MBD course walkthrough with the Ann Arbor parks dept. peeps today. It's shaping up nicely and I feel like it may actually exist soon.

That was the only good part about area disc golf today.

Then I went to the Farm @ Founder's Park in Farmington Hills for the first time (#1,056) a little 9 hole course with Chainstars and 2 sets of dirt tees and with signs. It was poorly laid out (lack of land to make a good layout flow though) with crazy long walks and a jog b… Continue

Thanks for the comment on my blog, Ben! I know, I should feel guilty complaining about the sprinkle of snow we had here compared to what you must play it in Michigan. I've SEEN the videos on youtube! You have my admiration! Bundle up now and bang those chains! :)

P.S. Ummm...one question, are their any particular gloves that are good to wear for cold weather...or am I just being a wimp? :)

Thanks for putting the baskets in.

If you like Innova's "Gummy" plastic. You will dig this stuff. If you have not tried their discs. Your best bet is the Striker. It flies like a CE Teebird, but longer. Some people have said "If the Valk and Teebird had a kid, this would be it" The o…

If the hole is messed up in ball golf the rules say that you are allowed to fix it. If the line on your putt is messed up you are allowed to fix that as well. If they can not fixed it the ball will be moved to a better spot. The baskets do need to b…

Cool.... I love this game. But I am still a struggling along new guy. At Emerald I am consistently at 37 - 39 for nine holes.... I am trying to improve, and it comes down to basically two things... 1) so far i am still a two putt guy, and some of t…

First of all, I think the content is adequate. I agree that the most important part of etiquette is common sense courtesy. If you are truly courteous to disc golfers and non-disc golfers alike, etiquette takes care of its self. One thing I noticed i…
