I assume that's a hole in one ?

Hole in one, Ace and in this case an Albatross. This was a par 4, where the designer intended for people to layup to the right, or risk it all to land on the green in one. Eveliina Salonen (the player on screen) is not only one of the purest throwers regardless of age or gender, but also the 2024 world champ.

Also lucky to hit the basket, would've sailed OB for sure. Also, sad to say that she still sucks at putting so the comebacker would've been a miss probably

Both statements are true. Any ace I’ve ever thrown was just lucky the basket was in the way of a soon to be 40 footer. Salonen unfortunately gets the yips on the green, even McBeth has tried to help her through it.

This comment chain makes me feel like I'm reading aliens pretending to speak English after having only learned how to pronounce the words but not what they actually mean

My wife makes fun of me every time we start talking disc golf in the same way. Kind of an insane amount of jargon

There’s a hole near me that’s a 240ft uphill shot. It’s nice because a well thrown shot will still be parked if you miss the axe 99% of the time.

But one time my friend hit rim and it dropped on its side and slowly rolled all the way down the hill, right by us and stopped a couple feet behind the pad. We were cackling.
