    I use the more derisive term, "stick-golf".

    Yeah I haven't, my bad, was thinking it was something else. Still pretty curious to see just how far they do go.

    175 is the max weight for drivers (and I think putters), midrange discs can go up to 180.

    Buying used discs is often the way to go so you can get one that's already perfectly seasoned. I have a ton of discs for sell, some of which go up to about $100. That's the cool thing about discs is that some are old and collectors items - you can get over 1k for the right one.

    sigh, fuck you making me look this up..

    there is more here; http://www.pdga.com/files/documents/...8_1_11.doc.pdf

    (1) have a circular, saucer-like configuration, with a flight plate unbroken by perforations and an
    underside inner rim depth that is between 5 and 12 percent of the outside disc diameter. The flight plate
    is defined as the upper (or dorsal) section of the disc, which is delineated by the points where the inner
    rim depth is measured. The saucer-like configuration requires a significant degree of asymmetry
    between the upper and lower sections, resulting in distinct top and bottom sides of the disc;

    (2) be made of solid, non-magnetic plastic material, without any inflatable components;

    (3) not be less than 21 cm in outside disc diameter, nor exceed 30 cm in outside disc diameter;

    (4) not exceed 8.3 g per cm of outside disc diameter;

    (5) not exceed a maximum weight of 200 g

    But gotta tell ya..no one is gonna open this up and expect a frisbee game.

    I love the "I picked up a driver last week" line. )

    Id like to play this someday. I drive past a course couple times a week.


    and are those crocs bro? please tell me they are not.


    I said to my self "this better be about disc golf" and it was.

    nice ace man, good shit, I've never gotten one. I have heard my disc hit the edge countless times tho and when I get to the basket it's not in.
