Frisbee golf *happydance*
Sep. 5th, 2004 07:06 pmI believe today's the first time I ever made three birdies in the same game of disk golf.
I'm certain it's the first time I ever strung all of them together on consecutive holes -- and the first *three* holes, to boot. So I had my pleasant moment in the sun going into hole #4 ...but after that the wheels came totally off my game and I finished up in second-to-last place.
At least Rachal got to watch me make a few good throws. She's my good luck charm ... at least for the front nine :>
And although I don't think we'll implement it, my play group had some fun discussing a rule modification: aggressive mulligans [1]. Currently, we're allowed to use one mulligan per game each, but only for ourselves. We thought about allowing each player to use his mulligan *against* someone who was doing well, and forcing them to rethrow a particularly good tee shot. Yes, mind games are a part of our strategies...
[1] "Mulligan" -- a sanctioned do-over, but only on the tee shot. We're not allowed to re-throw our putts, unless someone was being (too) distracting (intentionally).
