I went on a disc golf disc recovery mission today. I found the Mantra disc that I lost yesterday fairly easily. It had traveled forward of where we were looking for it yesterday and was hidden in the underbrush.
Next time, I'm going to throw something with a bit less of a kick when I'm trying to hit a tight gap in the woods. Maybe a flippy midrange or putter disc would have been better.
I didn't want to make any of my precious main control drivers or throwing putters more understable, so I picked the Mantra disc. It is already extra flippy, so I figured that a bit more extra flippness should be fine. (Hitting a tree full force makes any disc a bit more flippy or understable.)
Nothing does great when you hit almost the first available tree on a tight line, but both plastics I have tried the Mantra disc in have kicked a long way when they hit something at full force. Maybe it's the fact that the discs were max wieght that added to the issue. I like the disc, but I lost the first one I had from a really bad kick off a tree in a similar situation.
I tried a bit of easy throwing this morning, too. My arm feels fine on a backhand but is just a bit tender on a forehand throw. I think it was good not to do too much today.
The early morning light makes wildflowers on the disc golf course look nice:
