Lyle O. Ross commented on Donny Olow's group Vibram Putter (X-Link)"I bought a Vibram VP medium about three weeks ago partially with the notion of supporting Vibram, but mostly to support Steve Dodge. I am very impressed with this disc.
From the start, I've never used a putter for anything other than putting.…"
Charles replied to Lyle O. Ross's discussion Grip and disc stucture"I would have to agree Robey, but your theory is interesting. I use all sorts of discs and do just fine, but that doesn't mean what you're saying may not work for others."

If you've never perused the Scott Stokley books/videos, you should. His knowledge is on par with many of the best commentators, Dave Dunipace, Mark Ellis and others. In his videos he comments on the fact that you might have a number of discs of various dimensions, drivers vs. putters etc. and that your grip has to accommodate those differences.

Senior said… - Lyle, great points made on FDM... It is nice to see you are here at DGRU too. I'm going to send you a friend request. I know we don't always see eye to eye on every issue, but I have always respected you, your input and enjoyed our banter back and forth from time to time. There is always a better mouse trap, is there not?

Bill said… - Thanks for the great input into the snap discussion, I kept reading Dave's Secrets over and over and really not getting it. I wish I had a couple more hours of sunlight to try it but I'll be whipping a towel around the house tonite.
Auden has an eye for rare discs too I see!
