Discfinderen var alt i alt helt grei, men det er en negativ ting som jeg har opplevd et par ganger nå. Det er at når jeg kaster hard og treffer et tre så har discfinderen en tendens til å dette av.
All our local courses are overgrown so that i was seriously giving up playing, mostly using more time searching than playing plus loosing several discs :(
Our little team tried them on a very grassy course where we met other players desperately searching for their discs, while we just had to remember turning them on at every throw, and just listen to the disc (sometimes each other discs:)
A few days after i dared playing alone on the old 18 course on our island, where we normally have to rumage around a lot in the bushesto find our discs, this time having no spotter and just the discfinder i started cautiously and found i could hear them even on a long distance in the forest.
This was when i could feel my mindset changing as the beeping beacon came from beneath blackberries, among tallgrass or stuck in trees, so i actually stopped worrying about making a wild throws and 100% relying on the finder in the bushes or under leaves, pure magic!
As i accidentally hit a number of trees right on, the finder also proved to be resilient, it just sat there on its double tape, which i happened to be easier to mount and give extra strength (I measured that each tape is ½ gram)
Despite the extra weight, the discs perfectly were absolutely fine to throw, i used my light discs which were perfectly ok being 8 gram heavier, actually felt more stable, i think this design is the perfect compromise of weight, strength and price, i just want them on all my discs now ;)
I also realised that for non-bushy places i could keep the timer at 4 and just press stop and start when throwing again, that way i avoided the timeout and still keep the security of the finder if it flew astray, this also will work with more players to avoid timeout when waiting for the others.
Those finders are worth every cent and i am incredibly happy to have gotten such an unexpectedly simple solution to the terrible problem with our overgrown courses
Thank you for your detailed feedback and good ideas, much appreciated
Undersøkelsen kommer for tidlig. Har ikke fått testet enda. Men hvis det funker som tenkt, er det glimrende.
Hei Olaf, takk for feedback. Du må selvsagt ikke svare nå - det er bare å komme tilbake når du har hatt tid å teste :-)
Tusen takk for tilbakemeldingen :-)
