I just tried it - worked like a charm - and there is a built-in URL shortener as well. This would work well when you see something cool in here you want to share more widely. Enjoy!

A connector for disc golfers and others who manage events (tournaments, leagues, clinics) at disc golf courses in the Huron River Watershed, or who might do so.

Well, thanks, but I think we're barely okay. I mean the community is great, but the tools and functionality I can manage to offer are just "okay". And I think what we do with FB, LI, and TW is mediocre at best.
Has anyone tried it as a roller disc?

Gail P Lynch said… - Hi Terry - tks for your welcome. Is a great game, though i have not played for a while. Last time i had a game was at the World Ultimate Club Championships (WUCC) in Perth in 2007. I have enjoyed discs now since 76 and was playing regularly and competitively for a while - including in the US at times during various championships. I still remember the duck poo at La Mirada.
Came across this site when I was searching for an old tv commercial we did back in 1981 and lo and behold there is was on your site. Was a blast to finally see it again after all this time.
Tks care & rgds

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"

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…

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…
