LA Disc Golf

While on vacation, I played the La Mirada Disc Golf course (see below). It was a really nice course, with all nice mowed grass and only modest obstacles, but was still challenging.

It is where they hold the Golden State Classic which is coming up in a few weeks (May 4th-6th) as well as Southern California championships. In fact I saw Steve Rico while I was there. He is a small guy with a BIG arm. I only got to play a few holes before it started to really rain, but what I did play I really liked (plus I was one under)... I hope to get more chances to play other courses like this over the coming months.

While I was there I picked up the discs above. The yellow one is a SL Champion (169 grams) and the orange one is a Tee-Rex X (171 grams) and is suppose be a bit more stable than the regular Tee-Rex (although the manager of the shop said that it didn't turn out to be that way in the Champion version - which is ok by me as I like the Star Tee-Rex I have now and was looking for a back-up) and I really liked the Golden State stamp.

Soft Banger-GT

I went to Santa Cruz yesterday to play a few holes at Dela and played with Robert and his two sons (Jason and Justin). They were very good for being so young, about 11 and 8. Robert mentioned that there was a new version of my putter and so I went down and found one at DJ's Mini-Mart.

It is a soft version of the Banger-GT. I like how it feels and so had to get one to try out. Hopefully it will putt as good as it feels.
