3 Tips For Playing Disc Golf in the Rain

1. Stay Dry

Staying as dry as possible, for as long as possible, is your number one priority. As people, we naturally think of rain as a common and ordinary experience. Sometimes, we’ll skip the umbrella and the towels because, “Hey, it’s just a little water.” No big deal. But as you’ve surely experienced, trying to play disc golf with wet hands, clothes, and discs is essentially impossible. So as disc golfers, we must think of rain as a serious matter that will directly impact gameplay. 

Bring an umbrella. Use it to keep yourself and your equipment dry. Pay attention to the wind, and make sure your umbrella doesn’t fly away during your shot or a competitor’s. Don’t be the person without an umbrella. Don’t hesitate to create a mini dome of protection from the rain with the umbrella and your bag/cart while managing your discs. We have a range of different umbrellas such as our Large Axiom Square Umbrella.

Bring more towels than you think you could need. Package at least one backup towel in plastic. Dry towels are heavy. Wet towels are very heavy. In addition to the towels, make sure you have two handbags (something powdery or chalky to help absorb moisture). Alternatively, you can use liquid chalk – it’s not as messy and it is very easy to use. Consider bringing your cart in rainy weather to help with bearing the weight of the extra supplies you might need. If you don’t have a cart, you can browse a variety of carts on our website. However, our bestselling cart is the Rovic RV1D Disc Golf Cart and it comes in a number of different colors.

2. Think About Your Disc and Plastic Selection

Rain is one of those conditions that make base plastic shine. Every disc golf manufacturer sells base-plastic discs. Base plastic is typically a bit easier to grip, and this can make a difference in the rain. But base plastic is also flippier. This can come in handy in situations where you need to reduce arm speed, maintain grip, and shape a shot.

In a perfect world, you’re able to stay completely dry and are able to throw your normal shots. But if you find yourself in a situation where moisture is actively affecting your grip during your throw, and you cannot remedy that situation, grab your disc that has the best grip, is a bit flippy, and slow your arm speed down. 

3. Be Realistic

Rain is one of the most serious environmental conditions we’re allowed to compete in. It’s going to affect you and all of your competitors. Try to remind yourself of that. If you’re struggling, they are struggling too, even if it looks like they’re not. 

As disc golfers, we develop a natural sense of what lines to throw. We approach a line and have a first instinct for what to do. Because we have much less experience in the rain compared to fair conditions, our instinct is biased towards fair conditions. Recognize that. Rain adds difficulty, and sometimes it adds a lot of difficulty. Pay attention to your stance and your footwork. Carefully select your shot and then trust that you’ve done the extra work and execute. 

Understand the Basics of How Wind Will Impact the Flight of Your Disc

The impact of wind on golf disc flight is a huge topic. But let’s break it down into fundamental concepts. If you consider these two primary concepts, you will be able to puzzle out any wind scenario.

Recognize Wind Is an Additional Force 

When we throw a golf disc, we are adding directional power (force) to the disc with our swing. When it’s flying through the air, gravity adds directional power (force) to the disc toward the ground. In no-wind conditions, the disc will eventually encounter enough air resistance to let gravity finish the job and bring the disc to the ground. Think of wind as an additional force that adds directional power to your disc. Consider the speed of the wind, consider the direction of the wind, and then hold your disc out in front of you at the angle you want it to fly on. Imagine the wind hitting the disc and what that additional directional force will do after you’ve thrown it. 

Wind can cause the disc to fly significantly farther than the power you applied with your swing. This happens because the wind acting on the disc is an additional and separate force. At this point, you’ve added Mother Nature to your throw. This can create extreme shots. Respect the additional force being added to your throw, and be careful with big hyzers or anhyzers as you could easily miss by hundreds of feet. But learn how to master the wind, and you can intentionally harness that power and bomb it way past the competitors. 

Understand Wind and Air Resistance

Air resistance is the thing that makes your disc slow down while it’s flying through the air, and it’s also a major factor in why discs turn during the high-speed portion of their flight. To put this into perspective, if you were to throw a golf disc in space (a vacuum), it would not turn, and it would not slow down (until it encountered external forces). It would follow a ballistic arc. 

So because we’re not in space, by throwing the disc, you create directional air resistance in the opposite direction of your throw. The wind will cause an extra direction of air resistance to act on the disc, and this creates special scenarios like “headwind” and “tailwind.”

To help imagine this; next time you’re in a vehicle, put your hand out the window at 45 MPH (be safe, people) and feel the air resistance. All that sensation trying to move your hand around, that is air resistance. Now pretend your hand is a disc and move the angles around. The impact of that resistance is significant.

Now imagine a 15-25 MPH headwind. The headwind is causing additional air resistance in the same direction as the natural resistance of your throw. If you normally throw 50 MPH, your disc is going to experience air resistance of 65-75 MPH (that’s why your discs feel flippier and slow down faster). Now imagine a tailwind. Tailwinds are in the opposite direction of the natural air resistance and cancel each other out (in a way). In this scenario, we’d subtract 15-25 MPH of air resistance from the throw. This is why the discs travel farther and flip less in a tailwind.

This article includes a guide for your first recreational game. When you’re done here, you’ll have everything you need–and maybe even a little bit extra.

The Game of Disc Golf

While it is difficult to determine exactly when people started playing disc golf, it became a recognized sport with courses and competitions popping up across the country in the 1970s. It is believed that the game was first introduced to children as a way to allow them to participate in the game of golf; but rather than giving them clubs and a small target, they played with frisbees and larger baskets. 

Today, with over 14,000 disc golf courses spread across the world—many in public parks and recreational areas—disc golf is played by people of all ages, backgrounds, and skill levels. The sport is governed by the Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA). 

To demonstrate a sense of growth in our sport: in 2016, the PDGA had over 30,000 members. As of the writing of this piece, the PDGA has over 250,000 members. There are thousands of disc golf events every year, including the Disc Golf Pro Tour, ESPN features, super-star pro athletes making millions of dollars with big sponsors, and even international tournaments.

Improve Your Game: Tools for Feedback and Consistency

Putting Practice – the best way to practice putting is to make sure you have regular access to a practice basket. Frankly, most people purchase a basket and put it on their property somewhere: yard, garden, patio, garage, or even indoors. Please be mindful of your surroundings, as the chains and the metal of the basket can produce loud sounds (satisfying sounds, but loud). You can also purchase putting aids that attach to the chains and help you focus when aiming your putts. Try the DiscDot today. 

Rangefinding – The Apex NF600 Rangefinder is a helpful tool if you want to measure the distances from you to your target accurately. You can measure the distance to the next object as well as other data points including the slope, height variation, and more. It will also measure how fast you threw the disc. The rangefinder stores up to 20 measurements at once to gauge your progress. 

As you progress through the sport, knowing how far away certain things are becomes more important. Knowing these distances will help you select shot shapes and the correct discs. 

Other Fun Stuff

Sun King Discs also sells fun accessories and branded products to enhance your disc golf experience. As disc golf grows in popularity, more and more vendors are getting in on the game. Check out sunkingdiscs.com/accessories to see all that we have to offer, including

Essentials For Your First Recreational Game of Disc Golf

As a guide for beginners, we want you to feel confident stepping onto the course for a casual round. Sun King can provide that confidence. At the end of this section, you’ll feel confident showing up to a course and playing your round. You want:

1. Equipment
2. A Course or a Field
3. Rules of the Game

Note: this is for recreational purposes, not tournament play. Tournament play is different, and Sun King can help you with that.

Equipment

Equipment is what allows you to play the game. Make sure you have the following with you:

• Discs (putter, mid, fairway driver, distance driver (optional))
• Clothing (weather appropriate)
• Proper Shoes (hiking through a park or field)
• Water and snacks (stay hydrated)
• Disc golf bag or cart (something to carry your discs and hold your stuff)
• Scorecard or the Udisc app (we all use Udisc)

Bonus tip: when playing disc golf you’re in nature. Sometimes in the wilderness, sometimes in populated areas. Bring stuff that might help in those situations: hats, gloves, parasols, sunscreen, bug spray, etc. 

What Do I Do When I Get to the Course?

The courses themselves (usually) will have tee pads, baskets, and signage to help you navigate through the course. In general, disc golf courses are either on private property or in public parks. In both cases, it will be rare to find a disc golf course with no people on it. We’re a welcoming, active, and friendly community. Introduce yourself and you will almost certainly be welcomed.

The basic assumption is that groups of 2-4 players will tee off from hole #1 when all players are ready, and then continue through the course, playing each hole in sequential order, at a reasonable pace of play. 

If you approach hole #1 and there are people present, here is what you do: If it looks like someone is on the tee pad preparing to throw, do your best not to be disruptive. If nobody is actively throwing on hole #1 it’s normal to ask one of the people waiting what the throwing order is. It’s typically first come, first served at these courses, and sometimes people will wait by hole #1 to reserve their spot in line while waiting for the rest of their group to show up.

If nobody is there then walk up to the tee pad and start your round by throwing from hole #1.

You can play with larger groups. It’s not uncommon to see groups of 5-8 people playing together. Nor is it uncommon to see individuals walking the park playing by themselves.

Pace of play is simple: if the group behind you catches up to you, you probably want to offer for them to “play through”. Play-through customs are highly localized. Ask around to find out those specifics.

Basic Flow of Play

Start from hole #1 and play each hole in sequential order until the marked course is completed (usually 18 holes, but not always). Each hole begins from a tee pad and ends with a target (chain basket). Complete each hole in as few throws as possible. To complete a hole the disc must come to rest inside the basket or the chains of the target. To advance the disc you must propel it, unassisted, with your body from where it lies (we do this by throwing the disc). Each throw counts as one stroke. Those are the basics, but it is recommended that you become familiar with the rules of the game. The PDGA governs these rules, and are a great resource. 

Call your friends, get your stuff from Sun King, and go play some disc golf. You’re ready.

As you develop your disc golf skill you will probably start to see the need and the want for new, more, and better disc golf gear. At Sun King Discs, our goal is to become your go-to shop for all things disc golf. In this article we’re going to provide some basic tips for how to level up your gear.

Tip #1 – Try different disc plastics

Discs are the central piece of equipment that the game of disc golf relies on. As you become more familiar with the disc molds that you like to throw, make sure you’re trying that same mold in a variety of different plastics. The plastic types are one of the most important factors in determining (a) how a disc can fly, and (b) how the flight characteristics will change over time as the disc is used.

Example: the Innova Destroyer

You can get this classic and super-popular mold in a ton of different plastics, all variants available from our disc golf disc selection. Here are just a few examples, and how the plastic choice will change the flight characteristics of your disc, right out of the box.

• DX Destroyer (base plastic)
  • This is Innova’s “base plastic”. The base plastic discs are much flippier than their premium counterparts when thrown with the same power. Use this plastic to throw rollers, towering sky-anhyzers, or huge downhill full-flight s-turns.
• Star Destroyer (premium plastic)
  • This is the most popular plastic for this mold. Out of the box it’s overstable and then beats in reliably to a disc that’s capable of the hyzer-flip shot shape, and other turning shapes.
• Champion Destroyer (premium plastic)
  • This is an overstable plastic for this disc. It will take a lot longer to beat in, and is typically used when you do not want the disc to flip/turn over much or at all.
• Halo Star Destroyer (premium plastic)
  • This is a newer plastic, but has quickly become a popular one. This plastic provides the overstability of the champion plastic, but allows the disc to beat in faster than champion (but not as fast as regular star). Beat-in Star Destroyers have become a staple for Innova throwers on the Pro Tour, such as Calvin Heimburg, Team Sun King’s Garret Gurthie, Jennifer Allen, and many others.

By experimenting with different plastic types you may discover that you can throw some shots better with different plastics, and you may even unlock new shots that you didn’t think a particular mold was capable of for you. 

The basic rule: each manufacturer has a base plastic, and that’s typically the flippiest plastic available and the least durable (beats in the fastest). And then each manufacturer typically has multiple premium plastics, all of which have different characters, but in general premium is less flippy and more durable (i.e. beats in slower). 

This is a perfect example of utilizing Sun King’s expertise and using disc golf gear to level up your game.

Tip #2 – Use a Disc Golf Rangefinder

Our sport now has major manufacturers producing disc golf gear specifically for us. Golfers have long relied on the rangefinder to measure distance, select golf clubs, and plan shots. Now disc golfers have access to rangefinders developed specifically for them.

If you’ve never used one, here’s how they work: it’s a handheld optical device, similar to binoculars in that you hold it up to your eye and then visually find the target in the viewport. The viewport will have markings in the middle (a reticle) and the device will have a button on it. Find the thing you want to measure, put the reticle on it, click the button, and you will see real-time data (measurements) on the screen. It’s great.

These tell you exactly how far away something is in feet or meters. You can measure the distance to the target, obstacle, or any reference point that would help you plan your shot. Rangefinders have changed the game in a major and positive way for players.

If your goal is to level up your game, the rangefinder is an essential piece of disc golf gear for that purpose. Pick yours from the SunKing Discs collection today!

Tip #3 – Get a practice basket

At this stage, if you’re looking for disc golf equipment to help you level up your game, we’re going to hope you already have at least one practice basket. But just in case you don’t: having regular and private access to a practice basket is critical to reaching your maximum potential as a player. 

You can get really good by just showing up to courses and playing, and practicing in the field. But to truly be good at this game you need to practice putting regularly. And practice putting doesn’t happen on the disc golf course, it happens with a private practice basket, you, your putters, and your brain. So, if you are going to takeaway anything from this read today, browse our disc golf equipment and buy a practice basket.

Sun King offers a variety of different disc golf targets (players often just call them baskets). Some are designed to fold up and be taken with you to a field, while others are designed to be stationary for longer periods of time (more permanent, you could say).

Sun King can also help you acquire permanent targets. If you need that, please call the shop at 727-388-3473 or use our form here: https://www.sunkingdiscs.com/contact-us/

The Gran Canyon Course in Brooksville is closed until further notice. Below is the letter that was sent to all players from the Independence Day Clash.

It is with quite an enormous amount of frustration that I need to inform everyone that Sun King/Millennium present Independence Day Clash X is being forced to relocate the event away from Gran Canyon/Throw Down the Mountain course.

The nature of the forced relocation is due to a pending lawsuit against McCease LLC which is the corporate entity that Paul McBeth and Dylan Cease formed to purchase the Gran Canyon property in early March 2023. Most of you are aware of how much effort it took to save the Gran Canyon course from being snagged up by a developer and subsequently sold to Paul and Dylan instead in the attempt to preserve the course for all future generations of Disc Golfers.

The pending lawsuit has now suspended all future play at the course until the lawsuit is resolved. The lawsuit was filed by a competitor at Throw Down the Mountain XI who has refused to operate through the proper insurance channels provided by the PDGA.

Lastly, with my 20+ years of promoting Disc Golf at every level, it is of my opinion, that this lawsuit is not only frivolous, but as I just mentioned, might even be purposely designed to stall or even completely prohibit the Gran Canyon from becoming a permanent course. This means that not only is Throw Down the Mountain XII in 2024 in jeopardy of not taking place, but so are all future events, including any plans with Disc Golf Pro Tour, DG1 and any other tournament partners. I’m very serious when I say that if this lawsuit is successful at any level it will have massive negative implications for our entire sport at all levels.

With one of the main purposes of this event being to outline our rights as citizens of the United States as put forth by the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, we are going to live by the motto of “pursuing happiness” and we plan on still having an amazing event and experience for our players!

I hope that most players will see this relocation for what it is; just a disappointment, but will stick with us in a show of solidarity against the selfishness of the lawsuit.

If you have any questions, let me know, but for right now I won’t be answering any specific questions about the pending lawsuit via email or text.

A Brief History of Discraft’s Paul McBeth Claw-Mark Discs

In 2019 Discraft prototyped the first Paul McBeth world champion disc, which was the 4-claw Buzzz. The claw design was meant to evoke one of McBeth’s well-known nicknames “McBeast.”. Commentators, spectators, fans, and competitors alike all know when McBeth goes into “McBeast Mode.”. The claw marks represent that beast. And the claw marks slashing through the Discraft logo in that first run was meant to demonstrate their partnership with Paul; what he had done, and what Discraft had done. The other disc they worked on at this time was the Luna. 

Then, in 2019, McBeth won his 5th world championship title. This spawned the 5-claw commemorative line, and it was the first time they had bled a stamp all the way to the edge of a disc. Cool symbolism.

In 2022 McBeth entered McBeast mode again to narrowly defeat teammate Aaron Gossage in dramatic fashion, draining a memorable 80-foot distance putt on 17, giving up a stroke on 18, and then going on to win in a playoff that featured a demanding island hole. Discraft and Paul McBeth immediately started working on the commemorative Paul McBeth 6x discs release. 

One of the changes they made was to the signature series lineup; replacing the AvengerSS with the Heat, and adding a sixth disc: Vulture. They designed the commemorative stamp to include a stylized version of McBeth’s “McBeast” nickname: MCB6XST (the “6X” being the stylized “EA”). Very L337 of you, Discraft. We approve.

In addition to the six signature series discs, Discraft included all six Paul McBeth Molds in the 6x commemorative collection. Each disc features a unique two-foil 6x claw-stamp design. McBeth had a different take on the design for the McBeth line. He wanted something more subtle. The result was a claw-stamp that didn’t have anything running through the slashes. It’s a clean look. We love it. 

FAQ

Are the commemorative Paul McBeth 6x Discs the same thing as Discraft’s 6x Signature Series?

No. The commemorative discs are a special limited-edition run of discs meant to celebrate McBeth’s 6th world title victory. The signature series is a lineup of Discraft discs that McBeth has taken a special interest in. They are sold as signature series discs, and look more like stock discs. They feature a graphic of Paul McBeth’s signature above text that says “PAUL MCBETH – 6X WORLD CHAMPION”. We’ve included a picture of each below so you can see the difference.

NOTE: All six of Paul McBeth’s signature series discs are featured in the 6x commemorative collection, with their own unique claw-stamp. And you can buy them from Sun King Discs right now.  

Do all the new commemorative Paul Mcbeth 6x discs have the same stamp?

No. Each disc has a unique two-foil stamp. There are two basic designs, broken down by the signature line and the McBeth line. Both designs feature the claw marks. The Paul McBeth 6x discs line is subtle. The signature line features a stylized “MCB6XST” stamp running right through the middle of the claw marks. 

What kind of stamp is being used on the Paul McBeth 6x discs?

Two-stamp foil (just like the 4-time). 

What kind of plastic are the 6x claw-mark discs?

Discraft ESP plastic.

Throw Down the Mountain is an active disc golf tournament in Brooksville, Florida. Continue reading to learn about the tournament and its rich history, the legendary Gran Canyon Disc Golf Course, how you can watch the event, and how you can participate.

Breaking News: Paul McBeth and Dylan Cease have purchased the property in Brooksville, FL, home to the Gran Canyon Disc Golf Course. Read more below.

About Throw Down the Mountain

Throw Down the Mountain (TDTM) is a disc golf tournament. At the time of writing this article, Sun King Discs is hosting the 11th incarnation of the event (February 27th 2023 through April 2nd 2023). The title sponsor this year is Discraft.

TDTM takes place over a 4-week period. Each week is designed for a different class of skill levels and age groups. Weekend-1 is for our cherished senior-age groups, juniors, and players at the beginner / recreational skill levels. Each subsequent week the course becomes more difficult–the staff modifies the layout–making it more appropriate for each division until the final weekend. Professionals in the MPO (Mixed Professional Open) and FPO (Female Professional Open) divisions play on the final weekend.

Sun King and their entourage of staff and volunteers work tirelessly to make this the premier event in the area. 

Where can I get detailed information about the tournament?

Visit www.throwdownthemountain.com for official information about the event. 

Is the course open to the public?

Yes! Certain days are classified as “open play”. Those are the only days available for the general public to come and play the course or enjoy a day on the beautiful property. Be sure to check the schedule before you come out.

Is the Gran Canyon DGC free to play?

No. Guests pay a parking fee and a greens fee. 

About the Gran Canyon DGC

TDTM is hosted on the Gran Canyon Disc Golf Course (DGC). Sometimes people refer to the course as “The Mountain.”. The Gran Canyon challenges players with dramatic elevation changes, such as throwing down towering 80-foot-tall cliffs and then throwing back up deceptively-high shelves and hills. Low ceilings, rolling hills, rocky paths, and punishing tropical rough increase the difficulty of this course beyond that of a traditional Florida-style disc golf course.

Can I bring my cart or should I use a bag?

The Gran Canyon is not what we would call “cart friendly” but you will see players utilizing their disc golf carts on the course. There are multiple sections of the course where the players will be required to negotiate steep-and-rough paths going up and down. The players that bring their carts are typically people who are comfortable physically picking up and carrying their cart for short distances to help with the steepest parts. For these reasons we recommend players use a bag or something light that they can carry with ease—or bring your caddy!

History of the Event

The Gran Canyon disc golf course has a storied past. It was last used for a tournament in 2006, but in 2008, the property was sold and the baskets were removed. The course was left unused for several years, with rumors swirling about its future.

However, in 2012, Sun King Disc Sports worked tirelessly to convince the owner to allow the course to be revived. It took four years, but their efforts paid off, and the Gran Canyon course was brought back to life.

The course had undergone significant changes during its dormancy, with some areas overgrown and others affected by water and wind erosion. As a result, a modified 18-hole layout was chosen for the revival event, featuring as much of the old course as possible, as well as some areas that had not been used in previous tournaments.

Players were excited to experience the revamped Gran Canyon course, and it quickly became a favorite once again. Today, it remains a beloved part of the disc golf community’s history, thanks to the hard work and dedication of those who worked to bring it back to life.

Coverage of the Event

Over the years the professional weekend of the event has been covered by well-known media companies in the disc golf industry, such as JomezPro and the Disc Golf Guy.

The Disc Golf Guy will be covering the professional weekend in 2023. Make sure to visit his YouTube channel and subscribe. Tell him you were sent there by Sun King. 

Paul McBeth and Dylan Cease announced the purchase of the Gran Canyon Disc Golf course property in Brooksville, FL

“[the Gran Canyon disc golf course] is something that disc golf needs, and disc golf deserves,” said Paul McBeth on Instagram, where he made his original announcement.

McBeth took to Instagram on March 23, 2023 to announce that he and Dylan Cease, a star MLB pitcher for the White Sox and disc golf enthusiast, purchased the property.

What course did Paul McBeth buy in Florida?

He purchased a property in Brooksville, FL that currently features the Gran Canyon Disc Golf Course, also known as: The Mountain, The Canyon, The Canyon, etc … 

Is McBeth changing the name of Throw Down The Mountain Disc Golf Course (The Gran Canyon)?

“We’re looking forward to re-branding [the gran canyon]” said McBeth in his announcement video. No further information is available about that.

What does this disc golf community think of this move?

SunKing Discs is extremely proud of our owner, Mike Barnett, and his ability to produce this incredible outcome. He contacted Paul McBeth, described the scenario to him, and worked tirelessly–at the same time he’s directing the TDTMXI event–to facilitate this deal with McBeth, Cease, and the owners of the property.

“This is really cool,” said Jeremy “Big Jerm” Koling, 2016 USDGC Champion and star commentator for JomezPro. 

“This is huge!” said Discraft, McBeth’s major sponsor. 

Nate Sexton, 2017 USDGC Champion, sponsored by Innova, and commentator for JomezPro and the Disc Golf Network said, “Gonna be great!”

These are just some of the reactions in the last 12 hours since the announcement was made. 

McBeth concluded his announcement by saying, “we’re hoping to have it open to the public, this fall, 2023.”

Next time you’re at The Mountain, or whatever they choose to name it in the future, remember: SunKing Discs was a major part in making this incredible thing happen.
