Week 4 - Should We Follow The Rules?
Author: Joe G 5740This one is most interesting because over the 20 years that I`ve been playing, it seems as though I`ve noticed a slow deterioration in quality of play as it pertains to rules of the game. Almost as if a “ghetto mentality” of ” ain`t none of your business if I`m doing something wrong over here” has taken over. In case anyone has forgotten, there are no referees in disc golf. So the responsibility is placed on ourselves to keep each other honest out there.
Should we follow the rules or play however we want?
Should others play by the rules or should we just mind our own business?
The prize is to be determined and will be equal to the strength of persuasion in the winner`s argument!
Winner will be announced on March 21st, 2009.
Week 3 - What Kind of Thrower Are You?
Author: Joe G 5740Here is where you will describe to everyone exactly what kind of thrower you are. In order to gauge this you can tell how you perceive yourself in the following areas.
First, give us an idea of your physical qualities such as gender, approximate age, physical conditioning, body type(if you dare) such as big boned, petite, girly man, etc.
Then tell us about the following style attributes: do you release with hyzer, flat or anhyzer, do you start low and end high or come straight across your chest, how fast is your armspeed, do you have a big runup, a little runup, or none at all, do you follow through or punch your shot, do you throw with everything you`ve got or do you back off and concentrate on control, do you use a pinch grip, a fan grip or a power grip.
The winner will get $75 worth of golf discs specifically tailored to their needs by our in-house professionals! Sponsored by Clearwater Disc Golf Store!
Winner will be announced March 14th, 2009.
