Disc Golf Lingo & Slang Who, What, Where?

[gnduke]

From Worlds in Des Moines after a shanked drive that landed behind a thick wall of shule on Big Creek.

"You're parked at Walgreens."

[Parkntwoputt]

You forgot one

Wedgie - A shot that sticks in the basket but wedged between the metal bars on the side of the basket, usually done with a really soft disc such as a Blowfly or Omega SS.

It counts only if you can get to the disc before it pops out.

[Alacrity]

"Get new" or sometimes "Get Legs" when a disc refuses to hyzer out of a straight throw. Not sure where these came from or what they mean.

YSOF - You're Still Out Fool (cleaned up)
I bet you could catch that one - When the wind picks up your disc and it takes off for neverland.
Double circle snow man - One of those you don't want to say when someone is calling for scores.

One of the funniest lines I ever heard on the course..."You know when my wife and I got married we were virgins, and after 15 years of marriage I am happy to say that we have stayed that way." I laughed so hard that I almost failed to meet the 30 secs to throw.

I carry two large mini's that I could use at anytime, someone once told me that they had "Minis envy".

It counts only if you can get to the disc before it pops out.

FALSE! it counts if it comes to rest. just like a disc at rest on the ground that is picked up and moved by a big wind.

[bschweberger]

I haven't read the entire thread Yet, but got to use the classic NC term....Filter.

[slo]

"BITE!"

...it's exactly the same as "Flex!", just for a roller.

[jakewalsdorf]

"Parallel Parked" - Really parked next to the basket

[bambam]

FALSE! it counts if it comes to rest. just like a disc at rest on the ground that is picked up and moved by a big wind.

FALSE! According to 803.12B, "The disc must also remain within the chains or entrapment sections until removed", if the disc were to become dislodged from the side of the bucket and fall to the ground before the thrower removed it, the putt would not count.

Couple quickies:

Walking passed another players drive 35 feet off the tee:

“Drop One?”

Shot through trees when leaves are chopped off:

“Choppin’ Lettuce.”

After a crush drive over the horizon: “That got small…”

Walking off the tee after you have been informed that you are not up yet:

“It’s all clear.”

Call to a disc that refuses to hyzer out:

“BEND!!!”

[gnduke]

This all goes back to the basket being considered a playing surface. The last thing I got from the RC said that it wasn't so the "at rest" argument does not work here. As I understand it, even if the disc is hanging in the chains and gets knocked out by another disc, it is played from where it comes to rest on the playing surface.

Always pull your plastic, just in case.

[neonnoodle]

That's not what I heard. A disc within 2 meters of the playing surface get's returned to exactly where it was. If it was holed out, then that is where it get's put back. DROT, then placed back up there. ETC.

Let's double check this...

[gnduke]

It's 803.07 Disc Above the Playing Surface
A. If a disc comes to rest above the playing surface in a tree or other object on the course, its lie shall be marked on the playing surface directly below it. ...

and 803.06 Interference
B. If a disc at rest on the playing surface is moved, the disc shall be replaced as close as possible to its original location, as determined by a majority of the group or an official....

Only discs at rest on the playing surface are replaced if moved. The basket as a playing surface issue was related to a DROT question asked of the RC and specifically asked about the top of the basket, not the target area. There may be some difference, but with the wordig of the holing out rules I don't think there is.

WABBY

someone shanks a drive and then you yell, "It's dry!" when there is no water in site.

[zzgolfer]

Jesus shot.... when you skip of water and land inbounds.

"Ever been to Utah?? Because that's Park City!!"

After a shank, "Oooooh. That's shuulsville."

[jdtitan]

When a shot goes in with no chains
"Chains? Wee don' need no steenkin' CHAINS!!!"

When someone's shot goes way off course, where there are few visitors...
"Trail Blazer" or
"That's a different Line"

[hawkgammon]

When someone's shot goes way off course, where there are few visitors...

Also known as the "locals route."

Another favorite...

I can miss this putt.

Usually said walking up to a 12'er.

[Dick]

"access denied!" when you try to get through some trees and it gets stopped dead.

secret squirrel route - you needed your decoder ring to get that shot through the trees!

billfold - to throw away a good lead on the last few holes(named for course pro bill boyd

boyd'd that one! - to crank a worm burner ala BB

blute it - to totally shank your shot, named for our long lost blute, who moved to OK it is said...

[Dick]

in your best english ball golf announcer impersonation - "he's not gonna like that one bit, jim"

[wilma]

"Damnit Jim I'm a Doctor not a disc golfer"

[circle_2]

A fellow master threw a rather low non-worm-burner-shot and yelled, "Come on Granpa, GET UP!"

I still use my favorite 'non'-cuss word, especially last night..."FLOCK!!!"

[wander]

I'm partial to "Willie," AKA an "early release" heading south quickly.

In honor of the Willie Horton presedential controversy of a few years back.

A "Sonny Bono." Dead nuts into a tree at a high rate of speed.

Morbid but worth a chuckle.

The English golf announcer phrase I like so much is one I heard during the British Open one year when someone made a bogie....

"Another chink in the armour."

"Be prepared, to be ammused"
