Disc Golf Injuries? Anyone?

Let me start this off my saying I am an Idiot. I focus to much on one thing and don't pay attention to other things. Having said that, I am out on a new 9 hole course about 35 min from my house. Neat little course, a lot of fun. I get to the 7th hole. Each hole has a Very Nice printed hole sign with the distance and layout of the hole. They are in metal frames that are about chest high. I line up on the right side of the teepad on #7 and let loose with a high hyzer. I hear BOOM and feel A LOT of pain in my hand. I got TO CLOSE to the hole sign and backhanded it on my follow through. 

I took some skin off the top and hit my middle and ring finger knuckles pretty hard, so they are all swollen. I got a 1/4 cut on the top of my middle finger that is down to the bone. I butterflied it cause I don't want to go to the Doc for 1 stitch. 

As the day has gone on it is getting harder and more painful to make a fist, but at least I know I didn't break it. 

The DUMBEST part was as soon as I realized what I did, all I could think was. "I GOTTA FINISH MY ROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!". And, in true stupid form, I did. Plus another 9 holes. I used my disc towel to stop the bleeding long enough to throw between holes, then realized I had bandaids in my SUV. Yes, I am Special. At least I played a -2 for 18 holes, then another -2 on the second 9 holes.

Anyone else ever get a disc golf injury?

I pulled a hammy at this tourny and half way through the first round and completed the second round from the longs anyway. By the end it hurt so bad I couldnt do a run up at all not even step or lean forward. I had to borrow discs from my group which they whining about cause mine were to stable and still outdrove em with a sidewinder. Shoulda took the dnf screwed up my rating
