My friends and I played an eighteen-hole disc golf round this morning. I won with the scores at: +2, +3, and +5. UDisc rated my round at 173. It is the first time I have seen a rating from UDisc. The rating system is different than the PDGA tournament rating system, and I'm still figuring it out a bit.
I was trying out a new Hex disc that I got last Sunday from my scrip winnings. I really like the disc so far. It is a very straight flying midrange.
I also tried some new shoes in combination with my new waterproof socks. The shoes were not waterproof at all, and they got really wet by the end of the round. I was surprised to see how wet my shoes were when I got home. The socks had kept my feet feeling comfortable. They were not completely dry, but they did a very good job at keeping out most of the water.
My new shoes were an inexpensive pair of zero drop foot shaped thin sole shoes. I like this type of shoe for disc golf because it gives a very nice feel when you are throwing. I tend to release the throws a bit differently when I am wearing them, but I think it improves my power. I was having a few issues with my flippy discs turning into accidental rollers today. Having too much power is a good thing, but you do need to adjust accordingly.
I will be seeing how well the socks hold up to use. Hopefully, they will stay waterproof better than my waterproof shoes tend to. Disc golf is really hard on shoes.
