Comments (110)

  1. Commentators often use the term ”pured” about a throw without any shenanigans. Could you further explain what it means?

    1. Personally, I don’t like when they use pure as a verb. That was a pure shot? Sure. He pured that shot? Nah, but whatever. It’s most often used to describe a shot that flies the best line for the hole, hits the center of a gap, or an otherwise good shot that is clearly what the player intended.

  2. Bowl Hole. Usually a scenic, comfortable tee area out of sight from other players where card mates share a smoke.
    ed: recognizing the origin and heritage of the game. like it or not disc golf was created as a counter culture free activity popularized by and maintained by a plethora of pot smokers.

  3. I would like to see a definition for ‘Flex’ as well.. I think I’ve heard it in commentary as “flex back”?

  4. Definition of pin high is incorrect. Equidistant means halfway.

    Fighter…a disc that keeps going forward despite hitting a tree or cabbage…as in that disc is a fighter.

    Paper plate…a disc so flippy it flies like a paper plate

    Baby come back…sung to a disc that tuned over unexpectedly

    First available…you hit the first tree

    Flare skip….high, arching skip that can occur when throwing a distance driver

    Ace run…

  5. “The” Turn- space between hole 9 and hole 10 on a typical 18 hole course
    Birdie bag- another term for whalesac

  6. Your Out Still Out – (YOSO) After a drive, approach, or putt comes to rest and is still further away from the basket than other players shots on the hole.
