Dear Disc Golfers, You may have noticed that our content has been infrequent over the past few months. Our bad. Seriously, we love publishing content and love the interaction with all of you. Unfortunately, no matter how many t-shirts we own that claim so, life isn’t entirely disc golf for all of us. As we were examining our sparse content and discussing what to focus on next, we realized that you probably know very little about us. Maybe now would be a good time to provide an idea of what we’ve been up to lately besides providing you with your fix of disc golf content. No life stories, we promise.

Black Zombie Chainsaw Putter Review
The Black Zombie Chainsaw putter gives you the confidence of a Wizard with added finesse reminiscent of a Warden. If the phrase “broken in Wizard” appeals to you then you need to try a Chainsaw. Big thanks to Black Zombie for providing us with this killer putter!

Quest AT Turbo Putt Review
The Quest AT Turbo-Putt is one of the most unique and controversial discs in disc golf. This is one strange putter. A while back I described it as the Jar Jar Binks of disc golf; no one really knows why it’s a thing, but there it is and you really want to like it but you just can’t. Like Jar Jar, of course, there will always be a few super fans who love it.

Disc Golf Stall Shot
What is a disc golf stall shot? I’m always surprised by the number of times I’m asked that question when I describe my putt and approach game, but it seems that either the shot or the term is not as common as I had assumed. A stall shot is purposely throwing nose up so that your disc either rises drastically or catches enough air that it stalls early in in the flight path. A stall shot is sometimes referred to as an air bounce because the putter appears to bounce off the air, a bounce putt, a loft shot, rise shot, or generically a nose-up shot. Sometimes this is called…

Quick Review Discraft Undertaker
The Discraft Undertaker follows Discraft’s recent trend of easy to throw discs with high glide. Discraft was nice enough to send us a couple to review and the tests went quite well. The Undertaker, released in Z plastic, feels like tossing a short range Crank: Distance without effort, deadly straight low power, and a nice hyzer flip at high power. While described as a distance driver, I prefer to use the Undertaker as a fairway driver. The flight feels similar to my Stalker, but more stable and a little faster. The first run Undertakers are less stable than I anticipated, but later runs are stable to overstable. I find the Elite Z Undertaker…

Less Stable Or More Understable
The question is whether your Tern is less stable or more understable than your Destroyer. Some disc golfers hotly debate the issue, others couldn’t care less. Some believe that it’s better to simply avoid the issue and discuss High Speed Stability and Low Speed Stability. I’ve heard it both ways and I don’t believe that either is officially correct or incorrect but I’ve pondered this semantic discrepancy to the point of absurdity and I’ve developed two distinct paradigms that may come in handy when you’d like to impress your friends with disc golf academia. Read on if you’re like me and are intrigued by details. The key here is the…

Dynamic Discs Warden Review
The Dynamic Discs Warden is the definition of a finesse putter. The extreme amount of glide displayed by the Warden allows you to do almost anything with it as long as you’ve got the touch.
