Disc golf is a game of adaptability, and nothing tests your skills more than playing in challenging weather. Recently, I had a frustrating round during my weekly league that reminded me just how tough it can be to play in wind and rain.
One particular hole stands out: throwing my Wraith anhyzer into a headwind, watching it sail OB, and then following up with an Firebird upshot that also went OB left (turned over). The result? A growing sense of frustration as I struggled to get off the tee in the wind. And that seemed to last all round.
That round inspired me to rethink my approach to playing in adverse weather. Rain and wind rounds may be tough, but I realize that mastering them could give me a massive advantage over the competition. Right now, I’m on the losing end of that stick—but I’m determined to change that.
