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…

The Definitive Guide to Disc Golf Book Review
Do you remember when you first started disc golf? I’m guessing you were introduced to the game by a friend. I’m also guessing you had several questions that you were too scared to ask. Or perhaps you’ve been playing for a while and don’t know the game’s history, understand all of the rules, or know how to perform each type of throw. Maybe you’ve noticed that disc golf terminology is often misused, misunderstood, or even localized. In “The Definitive Guide to Disc Golf,” Justin Menickelli and Ryan “Slim” Pickens have written a comprehensive guide for the game you play.

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…
