RE: Disc Golf Date Turns Ugly at Denton's North Lakes Park
I am, as usual, behind on here. But I loved this article on your big day out. Not to make light of so many difficulties on the course, but it was still very fun and entertaining to read. Your whimsy still shows through the difficulties. Then again, taking life too seriously only makes you more serious.
It does look like a very difficult place to play. Pretty sure I would spend even more time than you in chiggerville and talking to the fish and frogs.
Do they make a 'disc getter', like in golf? So you can fish it out of the drink? I guess swimming is the best way, but golf courses don't allow such extracurricular's. Plus you probably have nasty snakes down yonder to wade around with.
Love your Spiderman pack. That seems like a safety item, they can see you from the back, so you don't get 'bonked by a fris'. See, I've never played beyond ultimate, but have the lingo down and am SO cool.
Love JS comment after your 'lets go check out the grass again' toss..."well". Got a snicker out of that one. It DOES look like a fun, great way to have a romantic bonding experience with your partner of significance, tossing and rummaging about on the course. I must try it soon. Though WHERE do I get such a cool looking pack? I've looked and looked, to no avail ( :
Now who is the late replier?!
While it was a challenging round, it was overall a fun experience. My whimsy is showing? Oh noooo! I'll do better at controlling that in the future :->
If we're thinking about the same machine, I've not seen one for DG, but that doesn't mean anything. It may exist. A very handy tool for grabbing discs out of the not-too-deep water hazards is the regular extension grabber (like the ones marketed in the Carol Wright Gifts and Dr. Leonard's catalogs). The grabber and water shoes make searching in shallower water much easier. Although if the water is murky, good luck to you, and the snakes.
Getting bonked would prolly leave a mark. I've had some close calls, but haven't been in that position yet. In UF (ultimate frisbee) is there a lot of contact? Or is it like flag football, but with a disc? UF a disc game with which I am pretty unfamiliar. You seem like a physically active individual, between basketball, foresting, calisthenics and ...cat wrangling.
One of these days, we're going to see a DG post from you! The course is calling your name. As far as the spider bag is concerned, I am somewhat ashamed to admit it came from Wally World in a moment of poor planning/slight desperation.
And the beat goes on!
