Chris Goodrich commented on mdub's group 'Revolution Bag Owners'

I recently returned to my dual pack after having used a Lat. 64 bag for over a year. I really like the 64 bag, but the backpack set up is way easier on a neck that had to sit in a car for way too many days.

Chris Goodrich commented on Hooper's group 'NUKERS'

I added a Pro-D Nuke to my bag about a month ago. It is in the process of being beat into a long range roller, but for now it is my most reliable driver for huge anhyzers. Great discs.

Chris Goodrich commented on mdub's group 'Disc Golf Road Trip'ers'

In October I loaded up the car and drove from Alaska to Ohio, following my wife and her new job. My brother flew up to drive down with me and we planned the trip around two important things: disc golf and Red Wings hockey. We knew we had…

Chris Goodrich commented on Justin Ellsworth's group 'ACE CLUB-2011'

A bit late for a recap, but I started last year with 10 aces and was coming off a seven ace season that had crushed my personal best. 2011 saw 24 aces, including a six ace run when I first got to Columbus, OH. Mostly short holes last…

Chris Goodrich replied to austin edward sharpe's discussion 'playing in the rain!!!!!!! yikes!!!!!'

Hey Mark, wanted to let you know I switched to mittens after one of your posts a couple of years ago. It made all the difference during Alaskan winters, and still helps out now. Today it was mid-40s in Columbus, OH. I still had my…

Chris Goodrich replied to david swamp thing black's discussion 'Is the Wizard a joke?'

Agreed, the Wizard has a bit more stability than the KCs I've thrown. It didn't seem to effect my putting, but it did tend to throw off my short tee shots with the KC Aviar.

Chris Goodrich replied to austin edward sharpe's discussion 'playing in the rain!!!!!!! yikes!!!!!'

Besides the obvious, keeping your discs and body dry, cold rain presents an extra problem for me. I have really poor circulation in my fingers, so I'll take hand warmers with me if I know it's going to be cold. Everything comes…

Chris Goodrich replied to david swamp thing black's discussion 'Do the number of doosh bags you meet increase as you make your way through the ranks?'

I don't think the number increases, so much as the pressure does. As you, "make your way through the ranks," the dgers tend to get more serious about their score and how they finish in a tournament (not all, but a higher…

Dilemmas

So, it's official, I earned an invite to this year's Amateur Championship in MIchigan. Dream come true, prestigious tourney in my home state (I currently live in Alaska). I can fly down, visit with family and friends while playing in a great tourney. But, of course, my parents fly in to Anchorage on June 10th. I've already decided to stay here to visit with my parents on their vacation, but I will admit to thinking about it for a couple of days. I think I'm cursed for big tourneys. I…

Garrrrr

I played the odds in regards to the cardinal rule of air travel and did not win. I put my bag in the luggage to accommodate a new carry on bag. I pulled out a few of my every day discs (including my putters), "just in case my luggage was lost." When I got to Anchorage I checked for my luggage and was told by the nice lady at the baggage counter that it was checked through to Kenai. Got to Kenai (I'm sure you see what's coming) no bag. Currently missing is my Revo Dual pack and the majority of… Continue

Teaching moments

I was pretty excited in February when I was asked to teach a group of 6-12 year old boys the fundamentals of disc golf. I started each lesson with two basic rules: Listen (follow directions) and be safe. They were rules one and one-a. I told the boys that if they were being unsafe they would lose their discs for at least 5 minutes. The first major safety rule was stay behind the first disc so you can't be hit.

Today on the course, one of the boys from the group spotted me…

Thank you for the round here in Hilo Hawaii, we had loads of fun! My girls had so with your wife! If you ever make it down to Oregon let me know and we'll meet up for a game. And like wise if I make it back up to Alaska I'll have you show me the ropes there!

At 2:30am on January 20, 2011, Skipper H / Ripdiscgolf.com said…: I see you are from Alaska, I lived in Soldotna for about 3 years, and around 20 years in Jueanu! I even have a old Kenai Eagle's Avira putter.

I only have a few of these disc's left that I am willing to part with, so if you want a set send $12 for the 2 discs and $3 for shipping to ripdiscgolf@gmail.com via paypal and I'll get them out right away!

Thanks for Helping Rip Disc Golf get off the Ground!

At 8:33pm on November 28, 2009, Dylan Townsend said…: Hey Chris - I'll definitly let you know when I head down that way - I would love to play some different courses in the state, and you have to do the same when you get the chance to head to Fbk. We're trying to raise enough money over the winter to get another 18 up at the beginning of summer. Also the full 21 hole course at the University that we set up last fall will be up too, should be fun.
