Both my older brothers play the sport in their university teams. My oldest is in the Australian squad and all he does is live and breathe the sport. When i go and visit him we always have a few rounds of disc golf- or go and train with his team. I like the sport a fair bit and will most likely play it when i go to Uni next year.

I used to play "pick up" games of ultimate and disc golf in my high school & college days. When ever I do throw disc I remember how fun it is and think I should do more but don't.:confused:

We have a very good disc golf course close to our house, I've done Muni/Trials on the park trails but never played the course. Would be a fun uni event.

I'm sure you're all familiar with Frisbianism:

A Frisbian believes that life is a cosmic ultimate Frisbee game where the teams are the forces of good and evil and you souls are the Frisbees. All Frisbees are always in play. A Frisbian does not believe in heaven or hell, they just believe when you die your soul goes up on the roof and you can’t get it down.

When I was a young teen, we used to play a game we called "illimination," which was kind of like everyone for themselves dodgeball with several frisbees and no official boundaries (except for the schoolyard).

Has anyone played with Aerobies? We used to throw those around too and use them to play 500. (Each catch is worth a certain amount of points; first to 500 wins.)

the world record for throwing a disc for distance was set with one: 1'500 something feet

I've played in ultimate tournaments for 23 years, since spring, 1983. I've played in 4 different US regions (out of 6), and my current "team" has played in one Nationals (we lost), and a couple Worlds, where we finished middle of the pack.

Disc Golf is fun, too, but now I unicycle.

Thats a sport by itself,isn't it? I think even the discs are specially made for the dogs to catch. I think that's really cool.

I love to frisbee, but have always found it difficult to find a partner. There are many people who just can't throw a frisbee that well!

This is the disk design we made for our school team. We made 100 of them and sold them for profit.

I really enjoy playing Frisbee. Tomorrow me and a bunch of friends are going to the park to play so that should be fun:D

I play ultimate frisbee about 3 times a week at a nearby park with some of my friends. We play with a glow in the dark one at night, and we play tipoff where you have to throw the frissbee in the same jump that you catch it in before you hit the ground. It's nuts.

I'll play anytime.

I love frisbee. Been playing for 40 years (yes, the HAVE been around that long). About 30 years ago, in colloge, I was hanging out with a bunch of national freestyle pros who taught me a bunch of trick throws and catches. Loads of fun. Recently discovered disc golf. My stepson plays competitively and he got me started. I remember in college I turned my room into a frisbee temple. I musta had 50 discs hung on the wall. Every day I could grab a different one and go out and play.
