Nice shot....... doink the disc hits a tree.

 

"Nice shot" said the other disc golfer in the group....... doink the disc hits a tree.

Now the person that threw the shot says "You niced me!"

And tries to blame you for the shot....

 

A fallacy, but too many disc golfers will use whatever excuse they can not to take credit for their imperfect shot......

 

Happens to you?

I say it all to often, but only in jest. I think is a fun side of the sport. Just like hitting the "iron leaf" or "nice lay up" on a 15 foot putt that you come up short on (I hate those the most!). Moments of levity are nice, but if these are truely taken as a slight or excuse and try and blame you. Time to get a new foursome!

It's only very few.

some days more than others . but if you play with your disc's around trees your going to get Doinked !

[Jeff Nichols]

I am usually the "Guy" that Nice's Everyone, so I just apologize before the round starts.

[Jim Coonradt]

I do try to avoid saying "Nice shot". At least until the disc comes to rest.

I've thought it, and they still hit the tree.

[Nate Nasty]

we say nice when we want it to hit a tree

[david swamp thing black]

That "niced him" crap is stupid. I wish we could kill it. But now it is like the voodoo doll of discgolf. I think we are just rooting the other dudes on. Just say thanks when someone nices you. You hit the first tree, the guy says nice , and you look at him with those evil eyes and say THANX!!!!!

[Jim Coonradt]

I think that it is a bit amusing. I look at it this way, you don't want to say "nice shot" until you are sure that it didn't hit something and it is actually a "nice shot".

"Don't TALK while my disc is in the AIR!!!" Greg Bagthrower.

[Disc Player Sports]

Heard that before.

[Nate Nasty]

I won't say it most of the time it happens, but I agree fully. I don't want anyone talking while my disc is moving. I want all my senses paying attention to the subtleties of my discs flight/roll patterns. For sure don't talk while my disc is in the air if the shot is blind, if I am heading towards a hazard, or especially during glo golf. I will most definitely say something if it's during glo.
