My condolences on the loss of your disc. May you take comfort in knowing that it had a long life, and passed away doing what it loved to do.

i broke two rocs this winter, a dx that was fairly new to a early tree hit and a bar stamp SE roc that i bought used and on the third throw hit a tree quite a ways away and walked up to find it in two peices. unfortunately no pics from me

Snapped, split down the middle!!!!

one of the Icy Arctic days we had early winter

I was enjoying a frozen round at Milo.....

I threw the disc and it hit a tree square about 200' out.... I am wondering if the speed and flight "super cool" the disc in below freezing weather .... and snap ... your out a disc!

It was a plastic O-ring on a freezing morning that brought down the Space Shuttle .... and snap ... you're out seven astronauts.

^^^ Oh, snap! ^^^

The only disc I've ever split through the middle was a DX Gazelle back in my one-disc days. I had seasoned it to the point where even my most valiant efforts couldn't make it hold a hyzer line on any flights over 250'... then one day, after an inconspicuous errant throw into some skinny birch trees, I walked up to find a 4-inch gash through the center.

The memory is a melancholy one (I wish I could say I still have/throw my very first disc), but the experience was certainly a catalyst for my game: out of the necessity to replace the gazelle, I was led to try out several other (fairway-) driver models as well as putters, and it was this period of experimentation which opened my eyes & mind to the variations among discs' flights. It's all been downwind from there... :rolleyes:

The longest drive of my life was made with a 148 DX Wraith. I put it up just right in a tailwind and sailed it 375 feet (longest by 50 feet). That was before a couple of injuries too. It was flippy to the max. Later on I had flipped it into the blackberries on the 5th at Trojan, but a Wise man returned it to me. One day I tossed it on the lefty route on Mud's 2nd to show someone a turnover shot. Being my second drive, I spaced looking for it and played on. It had slipped under the edge of a fern and I found it when it got sucked up into my mower deck and spit out the grass chute. It was one disc that really had sentimental value to me. But I definitely killed it.
