How do you feel about players who throw multiple discs?

By that I mean someone who throws more than 1 disc into the basket. They piss me off because they slow down my group. I think if they want to practice then they should go to a practice hole.

its only annoying when i get hit with a disc while trying to retrieve my own haha

I've also had this happen...with someone who compulsively putts 2 or more times. It was truly annoying. I put the disc in my bag for a few holes. :-)

I'll agree about playing with the opposite hand being sometimes easier than throwing forehand. I play probably more right-handed than I should (I'm left handed)...but the more I've done it, the more I've realized what a weapon that can be if you get yourself in trouble with your angles (trees and such) or have a difficult LHFH shot when a RHBH shot with the right disc will be easier to execute. I can't throw it nearly as far right-handed as I can with my left (and my left hand isn't probably within 100-150 feet of a lot of the Pros as it is, lol). However, having a RHBH shot in my bag has come in mighty handy probably once every 2-3 rounds...so it's fun to occasionally practice.

Not to rag on you specifically, but the acronyms LHFH and RHBH drive me crazy, especially when there are multiples/sentence. Isn't it a little redundant? I think we should shorten them to LB, LF, RB, and RF? Anyone care to second that opinion? Hand, Hand, Hand...I get it, you use your hands to throw.

So why is the linebacker playing left field and the running back in right field?

[Matt Jackson]

clearly bad form...

[Shizzler]

I have to agree with the most. If there is no one behind you, no harm no foul, and throw another one. Now when it starts to back up play, then yes it is a problem. However, if its a tourney, then count the strokes...LOL

I am one of those that throw more than one disc should the shot require it. Like, when its a first time shot or lie that you have to deal with. Gotta try the different ways. Practice is good. Let a second one fly, and even a third.

Much like other people I have no problem with it unless there are people behind me waiting to play...the course I play at a lot in San Luis Obispo is a small 9 hole one and people are always hanging around the basket messing around which pisses me off. If someone is waiting to tee off, don't throw a sh*t ton of discs and move to the next hole.

[The FORCE]

The only problem i have with multiples is when my buddy decides to toss a couple extras when i am walking up to the basket to clear mine, usually ending with a miraculous dodging of a disc, and then a laugh, and then he says "FORE"

Curse the other sports for taking all the good acronyms. Personall, I don't want any random linebackers out on the course. Clearly these afforementioned football players are mentally deviant if they are positioning themselves on a baseball field. It's only a matter of time before they suit up on the links. I fear it might end up a little like the NHL's marketing campaign where a guy is lining up to putt while the announcer respectfully speaks in a soft voice. He's about to tap his birdie when out of nowhere a hockey player checks him into oblivion from offscreen.

It is going to take some time to adjust to throwing in a helmet and shoulder pads. The black grease under the eyes will be cool, though. Then there are the cheerleaders.....

hey now,perhaps limiting the cheerleaders to the 1st and 18th baskets would keep the distraction away from throwing,hmm,maybe not.Wearing the helmet with face/eye guard might help while in the rough.

I like to play two rounds at once if I'm alone.
But most often when I see someone throw a second disc at the basket it's because they missed an easy one and they are pissed.
