If disc golf is considered a sport, then I picked the right city to live in! I like how their icon is a char. Sitting is not a sport!

So I arrived early to practice. And after a while, I had to go to the bathroom. The problem is that this park is wide open. There are no convienient bushes to use. So I wander over to the baseball buildings and am greeted with this sign. Gah! What am I supposed to do now?

John arrives and gets us to help untangle his disc retriever. He tells us its a new Knizia game.

Which was promptly put to good use at hole 2. On hole 3, I threw a pretty good approach shot which landed 10′ from the hole. The trees on hole 4 held John’s long range throws back.

At hole 5, John’s disc lands pretty far into a prickly bush. Fortunately for John, Rehana volunteers to retrieve it (earning her a disc for her efforts). And on hole 7, both Mike and myself putted for around 30′!

At hole 9, Mike looses his disc high in the trees. And after it is knocked down, John comments on being blinded by the Sun. Which reminded me of my +1 Mike of blinding. And also at this hole, I had a pretty good yoga putt (where I hold on to the tree and bend around it to throw it into the hole).

At hole 12 is my best throw for that hole so far. Certinally within sight of the hole. Our mantra when we throw is “There are no trees.” Just pretend there are no trees and throw! It is your mind that causes the disc to fall to the ground…

We also saw this lady who hooked her dog up to this sled like contraption. I wonder what that was about. At least she wasn’t riding it.

And whats another water hole without a retrieval attempt?
