actually disc golf is for people who don't have the coordination for real golf. I lived across the street from a disc golf course for two years and played a bit to run the dog. Super gey.

Wait wait wait..... you play ball golf and call disc golf ghey? That's hilarious man, totally hilarious. Do you wear those cute short knickers and a hat with a li'l puffball on top when you wrap your hands around the shaft and line it up with the balls?
 
So disc golf is cooler because real golfers dressed funny in the 50s? I don't know how I could argue against that. You got me...

The only down side in comparison to ball golf is that we don't have the hot beer cart girl. The big upside is that it's FREE to play. No tee times or weird course etiquette/rules. Just be courteous and offer the guys who let you play through a beer and everyone's happy. It also takes less than half of the time to play 18 holes.

Yes, that is what I said, isn't it? :smack: Go play with your balls, Hoppy, if you don't like disc golf, what use is it wasting your time being a tool on a thread about it? It's like those guys that pop into the foosball thread every now and then to tell us how stupid we are for liking foosball. If you like ball golf so much, maybe start a thread on it. Talk to people who want to talk about it instead of acting like a teenager and picking on people for liking a game you don't.

Upon further review:
A disc is usually in a bag 90% of its life time. Most likely up against other discs. Since all discs are relatively the same shape (wing, rim, flight plate), there is only one 'gender'. The act of a disc touching other discs 90% of its life time, does in fact make it gay. :pipe::confused::tank:

Either way I think you are lame for dissing on disc golf on a disc golf thread.
 
Sorry gents....I just made a joke and Nordeast took offense and I continued to bicker with him. My apologies
 
Plus at least disc golf gets a little exercise. Golf hit a ball, get on cart, drive to ball, and repeat. Disc golfers walk the course. Though putting the cart in neutral and going down a hill is fun, especially as the guy in the passenger seat tries to not wet his pants.
 
Hoppy, don't give yourself too much credit. I've never been offended by anyone else's problems, if it makes you feel good to be a ****** all the time, more power to ya. I was merely pointing out that you were on a disc golf thread, knocking disc golf and disc golfers by calling them "gey", and that some may construe that sort of action as douchey. I also found it quite humorous that in defense of disc golf being "gey", you mentioned ball golf as if were any more or less "gey". That's funny to me, because if you look at a group of guys playing ball golf, they're usually wearing pink and/or pastel polos, kahkis, sweater vests, visor hats, saddle shoes or penny loafers and holding sticks.... kinda the same thing you'd see outside say, a gay bar. Now say what you will about frisbee frolf, but don't use ball golf as the status quo when knocking another sport's manliness.

I walk 18 holes which is usually like 5 miles...while carrying a bag full of clubs.

Wow...so much for that apology.

Then you are definitely the exception. Most golfers walk less than a 1/4th of a mile the entire round. And i have personally never seen anybody do it without a pull cart, think that is what it is called.
 
When I play ball golf I have to take a cart. Walking would inhibit the amount of beer I can take on the course and I wouldn't be able to get drunk enough to not care about my high score!

That said, disc golf rules and I play both types of golf often.
 
There's actually a disc golf course here that plays right on a nine hole par three golf course. You tee off from the ball golf tees on about half the holds and play back and forth across the fairways. It's on the Wirth Par Three course in Golden Valley, MN, it's a pay to play ($5) and one of the options when you check in at the clubhouse is to rent a cart. I've never been able to bring myself to do it, but it could be fun...
 
Santa sure did hook it up

Very nice 509. Speaking from experience, don't try to splash the chains on that thing. They're not heavy enough to catch the disc with anything more than an easy up shot or putt. I tried like hell to get a high heizer shot on mine and it just went right through the chains every time.
 
They do take a bit of getting used to, the lips and chains play very differently from a course basket. Mine has inner chains too, and you can still put a disc through. Also, the nylon is much more likely to springboard a disc if you hit the top lip. The way I look at it, they're tougher to sink than the real deal, which isn't a bad thing for practice.
 
Mine's a metal with a fairly deep basket, but the chains just aren't heavy enough to catch a disc with any kind of speed.
 
Brewed very first beer tonight. Imperial Russian Stout. It finished with a bit less OG than anticipated...70, but tasted great. Booyaa!

Visited Minn this year to play Blue Ribbon Pines. Also played Bryant, Elm, Koposia and The Valley. Great trip. Minn is ridiculously loaded with solid DG courses. You folks are lucky. We here in Ohio have to travel to play quality courses

Congrats on your first home brew and yeah, you got to play some of the best courses around. Kap and the Valley are two of the best I've ever played, anywhere. If you're up here again, check out Acorn in St. Paul, also stellar.
