Ricky's second shot was from about 350 ft from the pin. He went destroyer on the drive and firebird for the approach.

How far is it to be a par 5 if you're throwing an XD and Make to 25 feet? Or is it littered with OB?

Laced the perfect hyzer-flip thru the trees yesterday on #17 at J-Park.
320' to the hole and I knocked a fresh chip outta the tree just behind it.
One foot right and it'd have kissed the chains.

I had the improbable turkey run yesterday at The Wick. After missing a a very short putt for birdy on hole 15 (unfortunate spit out) I was able to bag the 16-18 turkey. The final shot (we pulled the baskets right after the round) was a champion spider from just over the ridge on a hyzer line. Shortly after release, I was pleading with my inside voice to just miss the tree. The disc cleared the branches and splashed the chains for the birdy. Not a bad way to end the season.

Last round at Hunter Mountain before the course is taken down for the skiers (and two 9 hole sweet winter courses are set up). Hole 15 which is a lefty friendly hole and I am a right hand back hand player I threw a perfect Anhyzer, it skips and hits the the basket. Half inch higher would have nailed it.

Drove pin-high 14 feet to the left of Tolland's #16 and made the putt...















































...both left-handed :shock: (right-handed is inoperable presently).

Ps: Yes, it is hard throwing left-handed; no, my name isn't Mullen, Barnett, Buono, Valis, et al

Nice 2-hole stretch at Dacey today...

Drop in 3 on Hole 13 followed by a deuce on hole 14 @ (the slightly uphill, just before teeing off on the rock ledge).

Drive hit early trouble then threw a pro leopard on a clean anny line into the chains from about 275ft!

Tolland Cross Farms Hole #12. 400ft Par 4 through the woods. The very rare “gray” ace eagle (wtf?). 175 Teedevil RHBH hyzer which fades hard and slams into the short alt pin about 300 ft away. With my foot directly below the disc in the basket I make the 100 ft flex putt with a 175 V.P. for the deuce. Gray ace eagle :mrgreen:

I parked hole 10(formerly hole 9) at Dacey Fields this weekend. Star Boss weaved left to right and finished straight at the basket with a skip at the end. By far my longest throw that wasn't in a field and it was only about 12 feet from the basket, from 430 feet. Sunk my putt for a two. :D

Deuced Borderland hole 3 W-B (400’ slight right through trees) two rounds in a row on Sunday. Both hyzer-flips with a 175 Roadrunner. First one needed a 25’ anny putt with the VP. Second one was a drop in from on top on the rock. I deuced this twice in 4 years, then twice in one day.

Deuced Bland 3 b-b last sunday during league doubles. I blasted a lace to the bottom of the rock (lhbh) and knocked in the putt. Have had a few chances on it before but I finally made it.

Today on Borderland Blue-Blue

Birdies on 1 and 2, followed by an eagle on 3. Also birdied 14 and 17. All with a D1 off the tee. That disc is seriously amazing

Still shot +7 on the round with a couple of multi-OB holes. Face palm
