2012 – Year in Review

I said it last year and I'll say it again this year -- I need to write my yearly review during the winter months before going too far along into the disc golf season. My recent month-long trip to Asia, which included stops in Japan, Taiwan, Thailand and South Korea, put me behind on a few projects, including disc golf articles. I have a lot to write about but very little time to do it. I need to stay on to of my blogs before I ...

The 2012 Season Gets Underway

My 2012 PDGA tournament season started like it usually does, with a trip south to Las Vegas for the Gentleman's Club Challenge. The event is considered a season opener as many of the top players come out to the desert in search of warm weather and some top-notch disc golf. Plus, it's in the great city of Las Vegas. We're always looking for an excuse to get back to Sin City as often as possible. We're usually here in the spring for the GCC and ...
Grip Equipment Tour Bag – Comprehensive Review – DGSquared.com

Avery Jenkins has been carrying discs around for a long time. It would be next to impossible to calculate how many discs he’s carried for how many miles, but a safe guess would probably start at six figures. In May of 2010 however, carrying those discs got a lot easier for him. It was just before the Master’s Cup National Tour event in Santa Cruz when Avery and his sister Valarie were able to test out the Grip EQ Tour Bag on the professional level. ...
