here is a pic of the area- pro pad for hole #6 the disc was found down in the creek-

I keep coming back to look at this picture...it is so cool...thank you for posting it. It does just holler out, "look, look at this sweet disc golf course!", how could you not build a secret course on it?

I used to head up to Seattle to play disc golf with buddies a lot. When we played Mount Lake Terrace I shanked my drive on 7 (I think it was) and the disc went into the swampy parts. It was a star stamp DX Banshee. A year passes and my friend shanks a disc into the same area, can't find his but does find mine.

It started out as an overstable driver and came back as the single best roller disc I've ever had... I didn't throw rollers for years I was so bummed to lose that disc.

And people wonder why there is a rule that you must make an identifying mark your disc....

It's the same Boss, it was just so radically fast when first introduced that the first drive wrinkled the space-time continuum leaving two versions of the same disc in the same time, but slightly different places.

Seriously, if you squint real hard when you're thinking about it it makes total sense.

The day before the Rose City Open we're looking for my friend's blue boss on 14 at Pier. blow a half hour on it and he finally calls it, his wife goes to move his bag, there's the boss, squirreled into the grass below...

So me and my friend were playing on a long downhill hole that is open for about 300 feet and then tightly wooded for the next 300 feet. The ideal shot is rhbh anhyzer. He threw his drive long, left, and high. The landing area for a good shot is pretty blind and to the left is almost completely ostructed so we couldn't tell exactly where the drive landed. We looked for a half hour or more with no luck. Over the next coulpe weeks we sporadically looked for the drive every time we played the course as it was his favorite disc. Still no luck. About a month later we were playing a different hole on the course that was right in the same area as his original lost drive was headed and as he was lining up a putt his lost disc dropped out of a giant evergreen about 15 feet from where he was standing. The disc must have been stuck in the tree higher than we could see and then randomly drops out at the exact moment he is standing underneath that tree a month later. Weirdest find I have ever seen.

I love the S.S. Avenger. Great disc for tight wooded shots. Bought my first one (been through six since) at Faragut State Park. ESP 171. Thing was magical. Lost it last August on hole 6 @ Corbin Park.

Threw it straight down the path and when it was @ the basket location it was still ten feet above it and traveling straight . I spent 45 minutes looking for the damn thing with two buddies to no avail .

This year in July after just having bought my 5th S.S. Avenger I was playing Corbin and was on hole 3. Hole 14 ends right next to the fairway for 3. I see this bright yellow/green disc land next to my buddies super shanked drive. We approach and I say casually 'that looks like my old S.S.'

He picks up his disc and throws, I look down and low and behold it is the 1st one ! Some chick and her mom found it last September down past the tee for 7 down next to the fairway for 9. By all accounts it was a 500 plus foot drive! She graciously returned it and didn't want anything from me. Still gave her a beer and my number (she was smoking hot )

Then promptly threw it @ 6 and aced it. First ace @ Corbin and it was the same way it flew after a year of being gone. Now sits retired on my wall.

Did she call?

[snap7times]

Yes General, that is the most important detail you left out, who cares about the ace..

[General Scales]

Yes but she moved like three weeks later to Minnesota .

[snap7times]

and you let her move... and you stayed??? I guess DG in the NW is better than I thought...

Same spot and everything.

My friend was throwing warm up before a tourney and couldn't find one disc. He looked with some help and finally found it after afew minutes but he was stillmissing one. He picked them all up but dropped a disc he was holding under his arm while looking for the trevious disc. The tourney was called in so he didn't have time to find it. As he walked to tourney central he opened his umbrella and was almost hit in the head by the disc that had fallen from under his arm into his umbrella.

I lost a disc(or had it stolen by feldberg or strague) at sumner meadows in '07. A year plus later Kilmer brought a stack of plastic that he found at trojan that was unclaimed or the names were unreadable and there was my disc. I have never been to trojan.

I picked up a bunch of wraiths a couple years ago, one of which was a white star, and I promptly lost it. A month or so ago I get it back when a guy I don't know comes up to a bunch of us and asks if any of the discs are ours.

Last Thursday I traded a couple of discs (champ rr and the white beat star wraith) for two z avengers. Sunday I play doubles and a buddy who has been fishing for discs throws me my white wraith that I had traded not three days earlier to me and says "How long has that one been gone?"

I was playing the Willamette Open a couple of years ago, my group was on hole 9. It's a short down hill shot, so I throw my aviar putter with a skull stamp. It kind of flips over into the trees so we all start to look for it, after a couple of minutes later I find it.So I take my shot and pick up my disc. I think to myself man this disc is really cold. I flip it over only to discover it's keiths disc he lost the year before, a aviar putter with a skull stamp. It cost me a 2 strokes for throwing from the wrong spot. keith was happy to get his disc back.

I was playing holmes park and left my go to 11x firebird on hole four in the fairway. I noticed 2 holes later and went back and it was gone. It was the worst loss of a disc I ever had.My absolute favorite. 8 months later I was playing in our weekly and afterwards while tallying scores, one of the players said "hey this says Jesse on it, is this yours?" I was like Holy crap where did you get that. He replied....you guessed it, "sitting by hole 4s basket". It was creepy and unbelievable. But wait it gets better...two weeks later i aced with it on hole four with a forehand in the weekly for the 100$ acepot and retired that badboy never to be lost again. definitely the weirdest find ever for me.

I was playing the infamous Shale City Open a few years ago. I had a blue Crush with a Willamette Stamp that was my baby. I had just birdied two holes in a row and had parked my third with this driver. I placed the Crush on my bag and putted out. After walking out to the next hole, I reached for the same blue Crush. It was gone. Damn, I must have left it at the previous hole. I throw then attempt to find the disc. Not there. Someone from the following group yells at me. So, being to reliant on this one disc start to fall apart. I'm taking 5's and 6's now. With three holes to play, a player in my group reaches in his bag and says, "Whoa, this isn't my disc." Of course it is the Blue Crush. I end up birdieing the next hole. Dude, had the same tourney disc, thought it was his and picked it up from my bag!

I love shale city.
