I found myself obsessing about keeping my hand warm just as much as keeping it dry. My adjustments were working, but not the best, and I didn’t like the frantic feeling of trying to constantly keep my hand active. At one point, I was looking at a hand warmer, the type quarterbacks use, thinking, “that would be perfect for keeping my hands warm waiting for the next shot.” Looking like I’m ready to call an audible before I tee off, but with the warmest hands of the bunch. For those who don’t know, Rogue Discs is apparently telepathic because they had to have heard my thoughts and said, “yes, but we’ll do it better.”

Hyzer, anhyzer, thumber, and grenade. Overstable, understable, turn, and fade. Just getting into disc golf, I remember all of this sounding like a foreign language. Sitting in front of the used bin at my local store, I found myself constantly looking up terms and reading full articles describing all the jargon known only to those who huck the disc. Here’s my best attempt to compile and sort all the simple need-to-knows and some of the more…local jargon that you may have never heard before.
I was one of the many people who found disc golf at a strange time in their life. When the pandemic was in full swing in 2020, I was looking for anything to do. Around the time I was beginning to feel somewhat hopeless about the whole situation at hand, my friend brought me disc golf. “Where you throw frisbees at the basket, right?” The very same. At the time, I couldn’t have imagined what it would mean to me, and soon this beautiful sport would grow to be much more than an activity to get through COVID. Here is why I am thankful for disc golf.
The evenings suddenly go dark, rounds are wet and cold, and stores have gone from orange and brown to red and green. This can only mean one thing: “It’s the Holiday season! Whoop-de-oo!” (I’m not skipping Thanksgiving if it’s Holiday music, right?) Even with my weather looking worse, Rogue Discs has me excited with plenty to look forward to, thanks to the new Wishlist feature on their site. Join me in getting a head start this year, and see what I added to my list.
It’s THAT time of year. The season is coming to an end, tournaments are fewer and farther between, and the weather might be reducing the traffic at your local course. I would call it a bittersweet time of year, but Rogue Discs has some treats in their aptly-themed line-up that may push the scales to sweet. Here are the six best discs for your Halloween rounds.
