Frisbee Golf - Caroll Marty Iowa

Carroll Marty: Ames Iowa 

This is a video that follows a good friend of mine (find him on youtube @ OneLewdH22) discing. It is mostly footage of him playing through the Carroll Marty disc course which happens to be one of my favorite so I will defiantly make more posts about that course in particular with a more in depth review. This course is a great course for any level of disc-er. There are even pro tees for the more advanced players and a general lack of irritating pins makes this a great course. 

However this post is simply for the video that features a nice birdie putt by yours truly....if you don't want to watch the entire film skip forward right to minute 2:00 and you will see me make a nice shot.

Frisbee Golf - Devils Glen Bettendorf Iowa

Devils Glen

 There are three disc courses in Bettendorf Iowa and the first one to be reviewed is my least favorite. This course is located in and around Devils Glen park. Unfortunately the course has only twelve holes, which is a little odd. What this course lacks in holes it makes up in a nice scenic view. The first hole starts behind the baseball diamond and continues to wind around through the park. There are a few holes that take you a little too close to the duck creek so make sure to keep your disc flying right or you will be wasting time in the water.

 Overall this is a nice, well kept disc course that keeps the players entertained with a mix of short straight holes and some holes that take you into the forest. Not too many difficult technical holes that are too difficult to play. Unfortunately there are only twelve holes, but if you are looking for a nice quick round of discing for intermediate players. Below is a course map for Devils Glen.

Ravage Approved: Disc Golf ...what is "discing" or better yet "frolfing"?

According to Wiki

Disc golf is a disc game in which individual players throw a flying disc into a basket or at a target. According to the Professional Disc Golf Association, "The object of the game is to traverse a course from beginning to end in the fewest number of throws of the disc." Of the more than 3000 established disc golf courses as of 2010, approximately 87% are free. The game is played in the United States and more than 20 other countries around the world.

This game does not take strength but steady fluid motion and patience. I usually only throw three different disks, however I have up to nine in my bag. There are all kinds of disks...and I believe here shortly I may help new players to find the proper disk

I will be starting somewhere in Ames Iowa...

In other news I am getting a lot of hits for Princess Mononoke so maybe I will have to give a more in depth detailed review and possible kodama fan artwork....maybe even some for sale.

Also I have been getting a few hits for frolfing/frisbee golf/disking/discing ....all these terms mean the same thing...I am trying to compile more information and get another video out for beginners so stay tuned for that....and keep an eye on the Back Alley Merchant where I will have some gently used discs for sale.

One last thing...the HTC EVO powermat is no longer for sale. It has found a home...but there is still plenty of there odds and ends to be had....on the BAM

And remember don't follow the crowd like a sheep, be an individual and create a path for yourself.
