NEFA DISCussion

Fellow discgofers,

I recently got a Playstation 2 and are looking if people want to get rid of any of their old playstation games. Please PM me and we can discuss.

Though there has not been a whole lot of disc golf, life has been good with a new daughter and a playstation 2.

I think Jason Southwick was right way back at the beginning of the post when he said that the payouts do not even add up to any kind of substance living (something like that). The payouts are like if you play poker with some friends, everybody puts in $5 and you win fifty bucks. Woop de do!

Fellow Disc Golfers,

It has been a long time since I posted on NEFA. I forgot how much fun and addictive it was to read and post on this forum.

My wife and I are having our first child at the end of May. We are very excited about our new addition to our lives. However, I hate to sound selfish, but ...

I find this topic really interesting and I like the discussion this is generating. These are the kind of issues which allow this sport we love to grow. Now, here is my two cents on this issue:

I like having different divisions in tournaments. It allows newcomers not to feel too intimidated during ...

What if i shaved my legs and wore a wig? Would that be acceptable? But don't expect anything afterward, that will cost you some big $$$.

I am having a hard time trying to figure out all the different hole configurations. Is there a map of what the new course will look like? If not, could someone please post a map of what the new course will look like?

I was up at Buff a couple of weeks ago and took a tour of the supposed new layout ...

Going out there tomorrow from Boston. Have not been the J park in two years. Can't wait to experience the new layouts.

I just got my new PDGA magazine with an ad for ABC discs. They claim they have new 21st century plastic. Any thoughts? Anyone threw any discs this company made?

I played there on Tuesday. It is definitely one of the most technical courses around. Great job getting the course back in shape. I hope you guys can get it back to 18 baskets.

That sucks! I love playing at Boom field. I will keep an eye out. People who did this are lowlifes.

Thanks Blaze! Beauty Hill was awesome! It was so kick ass to win homemade jam!

I just sign up via email. My Nefa # is 1099.

A course right outside of Boston! A dream come true. I will do my best to make it.

Played Hodges for the first time in a long time. The course is looking so fine and I love some of the new tee positions (especially 4). I highly suggest people go out there and check it out. Thanks for all of your hard work! I hope that someday you can add another 9.

Ticks suck. So doesn't poison ivy. I had a real bad case of it at B-land last year. All over my legs and I had to go to the doctor to get medicine.

I had a great time this year at APO. I did my personal best at a tournament and had a lot of fun with my groups. Looking forward to nest year.

Are you going to turn on the fountain for hole #16? (Please don't, I am screwed because I am a lefty).

I just paid, but I did rec division. Can I give an extra 10 to be bumped up to AM at the tounament?

I find that the fatter the lip of the disc, the more I want to throw it forehand. The skinner, I want to throw it more backhand. I tried throwing forehand with my Gazelle DX and it turned over and rolled 300 feet. [/url]

Take my thread about screwing around with discs using my backhand...I meant forehand. What are the best discs for throwing forehand long and straight. What works for people? Sorry for the confusion.

I want to throw it far and straight with very little turnover.

One day I was throwing discs in a field and started to throw some of them backhanded. When I did that, I went "holy (bleep)" because I found that I could throw them just as far, or even farther, and even with more accuracy thand my forehand drives.

The discs I mostly used were my Pro Beast ...

Who is this Steady Ed? Is he perhaps the Jesus Christ of Disc Golf? Did he sacrifice his balls to his wife so the rest of us would not feel guility for choosing Disc Golf over our spouses and church?

Do we have to pay an entrance fee to enter FDR? I was there last March, and I noticed it was $6 to enter the Park. I did not have to pay because it was off season.

I think the poll title should read : "What do you CHOOSE to do on a Sunday; go to church or play disc golf?" Obviously, the normal reaction would be to play disc.

It's a little misleading for those who have faith and for those who choose to not have faith.

For instance: I thank God every day ...

My wife is trying to convince me to go to Church on Sunday instead of playing DG. Doesn't she know that DG is my religion. What can I do to convince her of this fact?

P.S. Please take my poll. What would you rather do on a Sunday?

Ryan,

I was down in the Allentown, PA area last summer and had a great time. Jordon Creek and Titicum were awesome. I also suggest Little Leigh too. I ave to say I am a little jealous of your intererary. I wish I could have included all those courses. Have a great time.

I am doing the ribbon thing this year and it kills on distance. I feel like it goes nowhere. Also I hate wearing my big winter boots when I play. I can't do a run off and they feel like 100 lbs. But.......my feet are dry and I have not lost a disc (except my Avenger on 10 @ B-land, but that should ...

Lost a yellow avenger in the snow on 10. Has anyone found it? Thanks.

I sometimes struggle with the intimidation factor and feeling foolish on the course. It got really bad for me around August when I would play a round and got so frustrated with my score I would flip out and kick my bag. Luckily, I was by myself or with friends who understood me (thanks Mike and ...
