I played a difficult eighteen-hole round of disc golf today. It was partially in the woods and had some longer open holes as well.
I ended up with a win at +16 to +22 and +38 scores. The three of us had fun, but one of my friends lost a disc in a tree.
He was first on the tee, and the wind was starting to pick up. His throw looked a lot like what I try to do when I want to get the disc down close to the basket. Unfortunately, the wind got under the disc and pushed it into a tree way up from the ground. His second throw off the tee followed the same line but dropped down out of the tree.
After I saw what happened, I decided to throw a lower line to try to keep the disc out of the wind. It worked fine, and I ended up with par. It is really difficult to birdie this hole, so I was very happy with my throw considering the wind. If I was first on the tee, I might have made the same error. I have lost discs in the same tree on the same type of throw - a high floating anhyer. If you throw it just right, you can get in the range of a long putt for birdie.
A mushroom that was out at the disc golf course today:
I'm not sure what this is called, but I thought it might be called Witches Butter.
