Disc Golf Goals for 2011

[Dr. Zaius]

yes i have them.

get in great shape (this is aside from disc golf, and more of a general goal, but will obviously help my game)
learn how to relax even more than i already am (which if you know me, i'm a pretty chill fella, but relaxing during rounds can be pretty tough for me)
have more focus (tied in with relaxing, being patient, not giving a f**k about that person that is freaking out and kicking his bag over nothing, and also literally trying to affect your game whilst doing so. yeah i'm done with that dude)
and of course, repping my good friends at ninkasi all over the state of oregon and hopefully at worlds if i can get in...

Well, tomorrow marks the half way point for this year, so I thought now would be a good time for updates.

1. Not yet
2. Not yet
3. Yes. So far...
4. Almost on hole 6 at Seatac (I believe that one is 400'). The putt didn't quite stick.

1 - Shoot a 1000 rated round
2 - Get my rating over 950
3 - Be extremely confident from 20'
4 - Be confident from 30'
5 - Win a tournament in Advanced
6 - Qualify for Am Worlds
7 - Teach 3 new people how to play.

--

1. I shot a 58 on the BSF East, which would've been over 1000, but a scoring error turned it into a 990... so not yet
2. I expect it to be pretty close at the next update
3. Done
4. Getting there
5. Not yet, got a 2nd at an unsanctioned, 4th at a C-Tier, and 6th at the BSF
6. Won't know till the end of the year
7. Nope

For me the specifics of the goals seem kind of personal. No big deal but it's hard to express the status of things I'm working on. Current goal is win an advanced pdga toury. Only long term goal is win a pro golf tourney someday. And of course play golf for fun every goddamn time I go.

Fun.
Dye my own discs.
Get to Oregon for more then 24 hours

1.) Nope, still self destructing in tournaments.
2.) Yep, never been more confident when the pressure is on.
3.) Yep, had fun with every disc I've thrown this year
4.) Yep, but nothing that I'd share with anybody. Looks like a five year old did it.
5.) Not yet.

I'm not all official like all of you, so my only goal this year is to throw 400' I've got about 40' to go still...

just figured I'd give an update/brag a little, lol. I also set a personal goal for throwing an ace this year, and throwing under 100 at the professional course here in minnesota.

I'm glad to say that the first time out to Blue Ribbon Pines I threw a 90 (par is 88) and have been under 100 multiple times this year, I have thrown one ace this year, and just yesterday I was able to get my Pro-Katana to sail all of 400'

I've accomplished my goals already for the year, anyone else?

[mine all mine]

meet some awesome people while playing the game I love...CHECK!

Nice work on getting one to fly 400'! Next year it'll have to be the harder part...throwing 400 whenever you want too!

1. Did it! 1027 rated round.
2. Did it too, not surprising that it was at the same tournament with my 1027 rated round.
3. Did it. Still rated 954. Could be higher if I could learn how to stop the bleeding during bad rounds. I have an 889 round currently counting towards my rating (138 worse than my best, ouch). Mental discipline is key.
4. Not this one, but almost. Granted, I didn't encouter this type of hole very often since I meant for par 3 holes that are 400' long.
