I'm taking a chance on making the stupidest threads list, but I have a legit question. Has anyone had your discs nibbled on by mice?

No, but my husband had a disc nibbled on by a different rodent, a squirrel.

A lot of players overlook the advantages of having their discs chewed on by wild rodents.
I had one dog that used to chew up discs. She worked her way through my putter bag of aviars. I got rid of hers. My other dogs do not touch my discs. Even when I take them with me, they do not grab the disc. Instead they will run to where it lands and sit there until I catch up with them.

My Alpine Goat will pick up discs and carry them around...but he has yet to leave a tooth mark in them.
Does that count? What do I win?

Oh yes, I have! They got mine pretty good - hungry little rodents they were. They chewed some fairly large chunks off of some discs I was keeping in an outside garage. They got about 10 of my discs.
Yesterday a deer was on the course, and went up to my dayglo firebird and started doing somehting with it. no teeth marks, but i still think it was cool. the thing was like 20 feet infront of me, and i crept up to under 10' away from it. living on a disc golf course must make it very used to humans.

I have had evidence of mice chewage. Lived on 2 1/2 acres and had a basket near some tall grass. Left it out there one night, next morning and all around the rim were little bite marks.
Very odd.

funny topic....
the house i live in is on an old farm with 40acres. one night when i first moved in here i was sorting through my plastic and i noticed some bite marks on a super old beat to [I'm a potty-mouth!] magnet, at first it freaked me out, but then i realized its enivitable that we have mice. so then i just hung all my discs up and set up mouse traps. havent had a problem since. i hope the mice are gone (havent found any dead ones) for the most part, but if not, i hope it torchers the sh it outta them that they cant chew on my plastic anymore and have to stare at it where they cant reach it. and lucky for them they didnt chew up the CE VALKS or i woulda called the exterminator.
After a lackluster shot sometimes I will bite my mini and try to pretend I am getting electro shock therapy.
I am trying to keep the teeth grinding down.

There were some deer at Live Oak near San Antonio. I thought it was really cool that they didn't run off as we threw past them.
