Here comes the 2008 USDGC!
Sunday, September 28th, 2008Product Review – Sonic
Saturday, October 6th, 2007
We spoke with Dave Dunipace about the new Innova disc, the Sonic. It’s a new putter that’s decidedly old school based on the Fastback/Hero 235, it’s a new design with a low profile and thumb grip. This putter is particularly good for hyzer putters as it stays straight on the way to the chains. It’s a heavy flyer that won’t go to far but it makes for great control. It’s a very friendly disc for beginners with a familiar grip, it’s great for putting and short approaches. It’s a disc Dave’s been thinking about for years. A big thank you goes to Andrew for letting us photograph his Sonic! (It’s double stamped as a Beast.) Innova Ratings: 1, 2, -4, 0 |

We have Arrived
Sunday, September 30th, 2007Well much to our disappointment Burk’s was closed on Sundays. Sigh.
I played the course, shot a +8, with birdies on 4 and 9, a par on 17. I had trouble with 888 with an 8, still not bad for me overall. I was playing with Josh Anthon most of the round, I thought it was very nice of him to play with a scrub like myself while he was prepping for the USDGC. We had a good time talking all things disc golf. I did find out some scuttle butt, Steve Rico isn’t practicing as he has a neck injury, but will play in the USDGC.
The wind was decent most of the day but was blowing fairly hard by 5 PM. It was just a beutiful day for disc golf, this course is a real treasure, hats off to Jonathan Poole and everyone involved. -Jerry
Roc Hill here we come!
Sunday, September 30th, 2007It’s 6 AM here in Orlando, Dave’s here and we’re waiting on Lee (he’s always late). We’re leaving in a few minutes to make the drive up to Rock Hill, SC. It’s about a 7 hour drive, I’m looking forward to some Burk’s BBQ for lunch. -Jerry
Weather Update, Forecast – Warm
Sunday, September 30th, 2007Looks like the forecast has been updated again. Highs now appear to be in the upper 80s. The nights look cool with temps in the mid 50s. It doesn’t look likely that there will be any rain if the forecast is to believed. This fat guy has one question… where’s the fall weather? -Jerry
