"surprise, surprise..." :laughing:
"Throwing a Frisbee may be easy, but throwing a disc down a hill, over a stand of trees and a pond and into position to make a second approach shot at a green box set inside the tree line of a woods is not."
great article. http://www.panicfreaks.org/images/emoticons/medal.gif

this made me laugh...
Nature Boy's story is a familiar one among the disc golf community. Some friends dragged him to a disc golf course several years ago, and [B]he promptly failed miserably and declared the game "the stupidest thing I've seen in my life." Then he went back and played again and, as he put it, "I was like a catfish, dude, swallowed it whole."

This is the kind of main stream sports coverage that really gets the exposure the sport needs. I got three friends started playing last fall, and several people at work want to learn. I am also teaching my grand children. We have been saying it for years, THERE IS NOWHERE BUT UP.

That is easily the best dg article I have ever read. :jumpspin: Loved the sidebars. :cheerleader:
The reader comments (http://myespn.go.com/s/conversations/show/story/4408853) are worthwhile, too. It even devolves into a buzzz vs. roc discussion. Who does THAT? :whistler:
