Well, it was not my best round but at least I got a lot of steps in playing disc golf in the tournament today. I started out doing fine with a couple of birdies right at the start but then I got a bit tired and it started raining.
I am not the best in wet weather rounds and I threw a bunch of drives too nose up. I have trouble doing that sometimes even when it is dry though. It was still fun to be out on the course.
I took some of my script I won in a past round and bought a new disc. It is a bright red Westside Tournament Sword disc. They have been kind of hard to find and when I saw one at 171 grams I bought it on a whim. I lost a 164 gram Sword in the wind a while back. I really thought this disc would be a lot more stable than the one I lost but on the first throw it turned really hard and seemed way less stable. Rather than be tempted to use it in the round I put it the car.
I will need to throw it more to see how it flies. Hopefully the first throw was just a result of too much anhyzer, wind, or something but I was not expecting the result I got.

Hai Has the snow been over there?
Hopefully the next throw with your new disk will be as you expected.
Photo is awesome with clouds on sky. We can't win every game but the good thing is that you enjoy playing in this tournament. Enjoyment and health is main purpose of playing. You achieve both 5000+ and 10000+ steps milestone. Thank for sharing your tournament highlights with us.
I'm sure your next round will get good results, because the rainy weather made you a little tired
It is the rain and having a lot on my mind. The game has a lot of near misses when I play it so luck is a bit of a factor too. It is fun to try to improve.
...though not playing as well as usual, but at least you counted your steps today and refreshed your mind.
Hopefully the new 171 gram disc can speak volumes for tackling future rain and wind.
Beautiful photography with peaceful scenery on a putt putt field.
It is really good to get outside and do something every day. A new disc once in a while is fun too. Now I have two Sword discs so I have a backup in case I lose one. They are not particularly good in the wind though.
I'm not a fan of Westside plastic.. I have tried several.. most recently the King and the Shield... none have been to my liking
I'm not a big fan either, mostly because it is tough to get a hold of replacements if you lose something. I currently bag three of their molds the Sword, World, and Destiny discs. The World is the only one that has consistently stayed in the bag mostly because I don't throw it that often. It's usually my headwind distance disc.
As you practice on the new disc, you will be able to handle it properly over time.
I does take some time to get a consistent result from a new disc. They vary a lot from run to run when they are made from the manufacturer.
