so i got mine through Amazon. It was a tad bit more expensive but I get free 2 day shipping and I needed them by this weekend cause I had plans to play. but here's the amazon links.

If you have more time I really likes a couple of other websites but just didn't want to pay $30 for 2 days shipping. And I highly suggest you check out Discraft website. They had every bit of information I was needing, from throwing videos, to videos explain all the different kinds of disc and helping me figure it all out. Their website and info was so good that's what made me want to use their disc! so ill link that too!

for help picking a disc look here:
http://www.discraft.com/dghelp.html

For awesome video help and they even had a little graph like picture that shows some flight patterns of their disc.

Videos:
http://www.discraft.com/vid/html/mediaplayer.html

Charts:

Im sure a lot of other brands have all this same info, discraft is just what came up when I googled, and they made it all really easy for a newbie like me to understand! hope all this helps!

DD Trooper Bag @ $40 is probably the easiest entry level backpack style bag to get into

Then DD Sniper Backpack is up from there with more storage, and a streamlined boxy look at about $80



Upper Park Designs Shift @ $130-$140 is popular, but often sold out.

MVP Voyager Slim can has a huge price range depending on color from $115 to $175, which seems odd

After that you're into 200$ and up for bags, or real cheap no-name chicom stuff from amazon. Some of it may be good, but still at the same price point as the Innova and DD I just went with a name I associate with Disc Golf already.

I personally chose the Innova for cost to storage ratio at 80 bucks seemed like a good bet. It's been good so far, but only time will tell.

Athletico Power Shot Disc Golf Backpack - 20+ Disc Capacity - Pro or Beginner Disc Golf Bag - Unisex Design (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07C38G49H/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_t6u3DbQ7YJK37

Here me out on this one. I started playing about 6 months ago and have been using this bag for about 4 months. It’s lightweight, seems durable, currently I have 13 discs in it (i would say maybe 20 is the max), the left pocket fits my large water bottle in it with ease, the insulated pocket can hold 5 beers or two waters. I’ve been pretty happy with it so far and for price it’s a great value

Sorry I am late, but if you want a little bit cheaper option, this Fade bag is great. I have had mine for years and it is still good as new.

https://www.amazon.com/Fade-Gear-Tourney-Disc-Golf/dp/B002A22UFY

Paired with the innova back pack straps its even better. https://www.amazon.com/Innova-Backsaver-Bag-Strap/dp/B004AQFEMY/ref=pd_bxgy_200_img_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B004AQFEMY&pd_rd_r=SCPNNHV88HRKWZMHP14Q&pd_rd_w=xn40e&pd_rd_wg=dJbxi&psc=1&refRID=SCPNNHV88HRKWZMHP14Q

Start playing disc golf. You can get a simple bag and a handful of discs for <$50. No green fees. Good exercise to go out and walk around. Totally normal to play solo and then join other groups out playing (or let them join you). Super social. https://localwiki.org/chico/Disc_Golf

Well since we're discussing it in this thread, why not collaborate on something? Here's a start, feel free to offer suggestions and/or add to it.

I was going to throw some videos/channels to look at for technique but work is about to pick up so I don't have time right this second.

Beginner disc reccomendations:
First, disc down. You don't need a high speed driver as a beginner, because there's about a 99% chance you lack the proper arm speed and technique to throw it the way it needs to be thrown to fly properly.

With that said, here are some specific disc recommendations:

Fairway driver: Lat 64 River, Innova Teebird, Innova Leopard

Midrange: Innova Roc, Discraft Buzzz, Discraft Comet

Putter: Innova KC Aviar, Gateway Wizard (alternative is if you're lucky enough to be near a disc golf store, go there and pick up a few different putters, and buy whichever one feels comfortable in your hand)

There are also starter kits available via Amazon and various sporting goods stores. The most common being the Innova DX starter set (DX is a less durable type of plastic), the Innova Champion starter set (champion plastic is more durable). Discraft also makes starter sets, some with bags and some without.

You can buy discs individually at:

• discgolfcenter.com
  
• communitydiscs.com
  
• dynamicdiscs.net
  
• marshallstreetdiscgolf.com

You want a retractable flag pole or something that's not too long/retractable and lightweight. You want the totem to be something recognizable during daylight (bright color, specific shape, etc). You also want it to have some LEDs on it so your friends can find you at night. Make sure you have a switch so you don't waste batteries.

For example, one year at Bonnaroo we used a child's plastic hockey stick that's about 2 ft long and less than a pound in weight. To it, we attached a pink flamingo covered in tinsel. Then, we wrapped it in an ELwire for nighttime. It was very light and I could just hold it above my head if meeting up with friends.

I also have some friends that just used a light-up frisbee.

EDIT: over at r/DIY if you search for Totem, there are some really fancy ones with instructions if you want to go all out!

I have a Dynamic Discs Trooper bag: Dynamic Discs Trooper Disc Golf... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075GSYJMR?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share. I really like it, and it holds what I need.

I’m having the same problems with looks, I like the size of the Innova Hero bags, but don’t really care for the colors/design it comes in.

I just made the jump to a backpack recently and went with the Sniper. It's quite a bit cheaper than most of the other options and after a couple months it seems to be holding up great. One thing I like about it compared to ones I see other people using is that it has a pocket that can hold a light jacket. That's been really useful this time of year.

Hey OP check this out! I have the shoulder strap version which is $50 and it's unreal how nice it is. This backpack version has two insulated cooler pockets to keep your drinks ice cold, space for plenty of discs, putter slots on each side, two bottle holders and the upper compartment can be packed with whatever other things you need (towel keys etc). It also has very sturdy rubber feet on the bottom and the back of the bag is padded.

I think it's the best value for the $

https://www.amazon.com/Innova-Mini-DISCatcher-Disc-Golf/dp/B01E4C19EA

I purchased this last week. Not for kids but for myself. It comes w/ 5 discs and is amazingly fun. The kids can do it around the house and maybe bangin' them chains on a small scale will help get them into bigger discs

This has been a big hit at our house in addition to the backyard basket. 😁 5 year old daughter loves to join in on rounds (if it’s not too hot because, Oklahoma 🥵)

I love my Fade Gear Tournament bag. http://www.amazon.com/Fade-Gear-Tourney-Disc-Golf/dp/B002A22UFY

I also have the Fade Straps that go with it. http://fadegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=96

Protip, you can get these on ebay for much cheaper.

But yeah, it's worth it to me so I have a place for my putters and drink holders for my stuff.

https://www.amazon.com/MVP-Disc-Sports-Module-Basket/dp/B07CQ332L1/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 these are good and cheap! They work great. You'll have to change batteries every once in a while.

It's not a black friday deal, but amazon sells 6 packs of ultrastars at a good price. plus it's amazon so shipping isn't that much, especially if you have prime.

http://www.amazon.com/Discraft-Ultimate-Bundle-Ultra-Sport/dp/B0019QV6L6/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1417143960&sr=8-5&keywords=ultrastar

...Less than stellar reviews of the construction on Amazon. I think a determined buyer could easily strengthen the construction of the product themselves though, so probably worth it.

http://www.amazon.com/Park-Sun-Portable-Disc-Target/product-reviews/B0081MTESI/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1

Here you go!

It has held up pretty well especially for the price and it says 8 but it will hold 9 including the front putter pocket. I just took out my least used discs or the ones I didn't think would be good for the course.

Not a clamp, but these work great imo, multiple color options and fairly cheap.. though if your trying to light up a full course the cost will add up

I got this one and it works really well.

Innova Champion Discs Standard Bag, Black/Gray https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DF41CV4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_p4w2xb91VW7WZ

This deal is the deal. I wish there was a costco nearby...Here's the product on amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Park-Sun-Portable-Disc-Target/dp/B0081MTESI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376366753&sr=8-1&keywords=disc+golf+basket

Average review is 2.7 stars, so beware.

EDIT: But for 20$, thats a sweet deal.

Like I said. Found a few on Amazon. Which would be best?

Discraft Beginner Set 1

Discraft Beginner Set 2

Innova DX Set 1

Innova DX Set 2 (Same but cheaper?)

Innova+Bag Set

Innova Champion Set

Discraft Ultimate Set

I bought one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Innova-Champion-Discs-DISCatcher-Traveler/dp/B008RU1UV8/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=innova+disc+golf+basket&qid=1566831074&s=gateway&sr=8-4

It doesn't catch as well as a normal basket but it's fairly obvious when you would have nailed a put on a normal basket and when you wouldn't have.

I like it because it folds up into just bigger than a camping chair. I like to take it camping or on family vacations where there is a lot of space so it fits easily into my van.

A bag really isn't necessary for only 3-4 discs. It's just preference though. You can get a bag like this that holds around 15 discs for pretty cheap.

DISC CHUG! Bring me some booze and I'll do a chug in under a minute.

I plan on bringing my favorite frisbee and one of these light up frisbees. My plan is to bring out the light up frisbee and a bunch of glow sticks, yell "stoned people on this team, people rolling face on this team" and play some pickup hultimate.

Not cheap, but I do enjoy mine.

You need these OP!! I've often thought about doing a Chell cosplay but I am too lazy. You look awesome!

I’ve been using this for a year https://www.amazon.com/Innova-Champion-Discs-Standard-Black/dp/B00DF41CV4

Fits 9 discs comfortably. Can fit two tall boys. It doesn’t have great balance but gets the job done for me.

I haven't found anything that opens that way from the top and is that... compact? I thought it was a L64 E3 at first, but it also looks like this (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071J9QYWM?tag=iperfectlist-20) but that bag opens differently at the top..

The fade gear crunch box disc golf bag is a great little bag.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001FT2QRA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_7nf8AbZ2NP8PQ

I was in the same dilemma and after long debate on which one I should buy I ended up going with the Innova Discatcher Traveler for $122 on Amazon and don't regret it for a second.

The quality is so much better than the Franklin Sports and it has real chains. Folds up nicely and includes a carrier bag and all accessories needed to set it up. Spend a little more, you won't regret it.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008RU1UV8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'll throw this in there. Very happy with it.

Innova Champion Discs DISCatcher Traveler, Blue https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008RU1UV8/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_y5rbAb90DZ42V

This is the one I'm gonna buy.

I have a NEW black Innova Deluxe bag with NEW back saver straps.

I won these at a tournament. I'll do both for $50.

I was going to suggest Toby's ball as well - here it is on Amazon. I got one for myself a while back, I like it a lot.

bag

Such a fun course, and such an epic hole!

Actually you can just buy them from amazon lol. https://www.amazon.com/Skyrunner-Kangaroo-Jumping-Exercise-Bouncing/dp/B00M3Y8ZA8

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0032UUZ1Y/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_xJMEDb83A6YVT I would reccomend Z plastic personally, but you can look around at other plastics if you would like.

Fade Crunch on Amazon.

MVP Beaker, looks like their version of the crunch bag.

I recently just stepped up from my small sholder bag to a full backpack and found this one fairly cheap on Amazon. I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and have no complaints. I love the big two side pockets and front zipper pocket, as well as the front pocket from my putters.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C38G49H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I like the innova disccarrier with backpack straps. kindof lets you have the backpack and the satchel if you just loop one arm. I'm a beginner/intermediate too.

this+this

ends up being $85

Add jumping stilts as a 4th deploy-able pack players can take: https://www.amazon.com/Skyrunner-Kangaroo-Jumping-Exercise-Bouncing/dp/B00M3Y8ZA8

These could allow players to sprint faster and jump higher, effectively being a middle ground between bikes and grapples without being quite as useful in their specific areas. Example, can jump 2.5 stories but not grapple to 3-4 and won't be as fast as biking.

Also, possibly mitigating falling dmg a bit? Whether by an overall decrease to dmg or increasing the height required to actually dmg you.

Well from your post, I would say that you are stressed out. Stress will aggravate your IBS, so I recommend relaxing as much as possible. Find some light exercise that you enjoy, for example, I like to go on walks in the morning when my belly is unhappy. I also find that abdominal exercises help in the morning if i am having some morning sickness. Also yoga helps me control my symptoms. I try to do yoga or light stretching in the morning everyday because it makes me feel good all day. Stress about the symptoms or something else in your life could be causing a physiological response, stress is incredibly powerful in that way. Really focus on reducing stress and being happy. I found this helped the most for me.

I notice that a lot of people who have IBS in general have weak pelvic floor, so i recommend practicing stomach vacuums on an empty stomach.

Look at your posture and try to make it ideal as possible, many people who sit a lot and are stressed often make the psoas incredibly tight. You mentioned some breathing problems, and i would recommend looking into ways to softening the psoas out, such as myofascial release with a slightly deflated ball. That will help with the breathing which in turn will help with the stress. I too struggle with breathing problems sometimes, so take some long deep breaths and if you feel tightness in the belly try to 'breathe into it'. I like to practice breathing exercises with my back and feet on the ground and place the hands over the belly and focus on breathing using only the diaphragm. You should feel the belly rise and fall with each breath. Slow and steady, Especially focus on making the exhale slow, full and complete.

I am genetically lactose intolerant and I struggle with digestion in general. I recommend keep on with the fodmap diet for at least three months. I also supplement with HCL+pepsin before meals heavy in protein or fat. Stress can lower your HCL production in your stomach and it might be in your interest to supplement with them for a while at each meal. I also like to drink hot water with lemon juice first thing in the morning, this helps me evacuate first thing.

I mean, this is selling on amazon for $100
