"I take the game pretty serious and have a lot of fun playing. I also understand that there are going to be others playing a course. The league that I play on Wednesday nights could close the park because of a deal with Park and Rec. and our…"

Brian Walter commented on Terry "the Pirate" Calhoun's group The Throw Shop"If i wasn't still drunk from my bachelor party I would come and check it out, but something tells me I should drive. Maybe I will swing by next weekend."
Audi replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"Practice is all it is. We moved from very flat and open Michigan to Elevated tight woods ( on most). It was a HUGE change. The golfers here threw more thumbers then I had seen at other courses and there aren't as many golfers that can bomb a…"
Derek Tonn replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"Daniel,
Seriously man, I asked about 7-8 people I know and trust to be straight with me to read what I posted in that other thread and tell me if it warranted even 1/10th the response you posted. I also had a lengthy chat with Terry Calhoun about…"
Boom Boom Dino replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"When I play the open courses it's all about what air is happening light, from where, and how best to glide the disc in closest to the basket ...... hyzer, anhyzer .......... what's going to get it there with the best glide ........…"
Daniel William replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"Once again with the bashing of beginners. Or are you referring to SPECIFIC people in the SMDGA with this post? I know a few from wide open courses like mankato and new ulm who would STOMP you. I'm a resident of southern MN and a member of the…"
Donny Olow replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"Learn each course you play and adjust to current conditions !!!"
Russell Gore replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"Man, I'm the complete opposite to most of you guys. I can really throw well on Wide Open courses, and I play regularly in the woods and generally suck. I hate knowing that I only have 1 line to choose from in the woods. This past weekend at the…"
Mikey replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"Yeah no kidding, i'm so excited that i can finally get more practice on the open spaces of a course (like the ponds), as opposed to a field."
Garrett Graham replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"I always suck at EMU the wind there is horrible. Rolling has my number too. The best part about it is I keep going Back for more. Im in the process of changing my throwing style so I overly suck right now. Keep throwing and Practice more than play I…"
Scot Lambert replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"I feel you brother! For me, its the lack of a definitive line....the temptation to Bang it, that hurts my open course game. Hurts it to the point that I avoid courses. Im not a huge banger, maybe 350, but I have control. Play your game and get over…"
Derek Tonn replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"Just be glad you only suck at wide-open courses! I seem to find a way to suck on pretty much any type of course. LOL.
Seriously though, I do "okay" on wide open courses. I strongly prefer wooded courses though...as there are a lot of…"
Brian Walter commented on Terry "the Pirate" Calhoun's group The Throw Shop"Nah, next month is cool. It means that they will be opening up just in time for my birthday tradition of wings, beer & discs. A shame that I now have to drive from Bdubs in Ypsi to the shop (only after a beer, I don't get trashed) instead…"

Terry "the Pirate" Calhoun replied to Brian Walter's discussion I seem to SUCK at wide open courses!"I've noticed the same thing, it hurt me and probably took first place (Am Senior Grand) from me at 2007 Worlds in Wisconsin. (But not last year!)
I think that if you constantly play tight and wooded holes, you develop visual cues for distance…"

About me!
Figure since I am new I will tell you guys a bit about myself. I started playing disc golf 3-4 years ago. I had a friend come in from out of town who loved it and told him I would tag along to spend some time with him and fell in love with it. After that game I picked up my first disc, a Shark! I still use it to this day for all around shots.
I started going out to Brown park on an almost daily bases (it is right around the corner from the apartment) and picked up on the game rather… Continue
