Instagram Picks of the Shield: January 2019

Now that 2019 is fully underway, we hope you found some time to disc golf. Don’t let the snow keep you away from the course. You can really hit the basics when the snow is on the ground so you’re ready to go for the warmer weather. Be sure to read our winter disc golf tips for ideas on what to work on.

We browsed the Instagram hashtags of #discgolf, #discmania, and #disclife to see what we could find for this month’s showcase. Keep the photos coming! We love seeing them.

Here’s the haul from the infamous Black Mystery Box! Nice swirls on my DD3. Very excited and happy with my box. No surprise that @discmaniadiscs does not disappoint. #discmaniadiscs #discmania #discmaniastore #yearofevolution

Lovely driver by discmania. If you could choose one driver for all your throws, which would it be? _____________________________________________ #discboyz #frisbeegolfnorge #frisbeegolf #gurudiscgolf #discgolf #discgolfislife, #discgolfing, #discgolfbaskets, #discgolfphotos, #innovadiscs, #discgolfeveryday, #paulmcbeth, #eaglemcmahon, #simonlizotte, #disclife, #frombirdietobogey, #jeremykoling, #adidasterrex, #golfing, #growthesport #gurudiscgolf #nature #norway #innova #latitude64 #discmania

Today’s a day I’ll never forget — I finally snagged my first ace!!! It was on a 299 ft blind hole (17 at Circle C Metro Park) so I didn’t get the chance to see it go in, but I’ll never forget the angelic sound of that glorious, glorious chain bang. The throw that did it was a RHBH with a @discmaniadiscs @simon_lizotte Doom Bird II from @discstore seeing only its second round ever in my bag. Yeah, that’s a disc mold I’ll be bagging forever now. The best part of it all is that I got to experience my first ace with both @flexforehand (the guy who got me into disc golf 5 months ago) and @flexbackhand (who taught me how to throw a backhand 5 months ago). Can’t wait to play in the Lone Star Classic on this very course for my first tournament next month! #discgolffever #discgolf #innovachampiondiscs #discmania #simonlizotte #doombirdii #circlec #austin #atx #austintexas #discgolface #holeinone #discgolfaces #holesinone #gripeq #adidasterrex #discgolflife #discgolfing #discgolfnation #discgolfdaily #discgolfeveryday #frisbeegolf #discgolfshoutouts #discgolfislife #discgolfusa #discmember #discgolfholes

Simon Lizotte made his way to Wisconsin for the Indoor Disc Golf Experience. Looks like he made some new friends.

Indoor Disc Golf Experience was a blast! Got to meet one of my favorite pros @simon_lizotte AND got to spend the last hour of the night playing soccer with him which was dope. Also throwing with @kinghailey33 was kinda cool too i guess. #indoordiscgolfexperience #discmania #discraft #skygod #Discgolf

-11 outside?! Didn’t slow Simon down at all.

I have sooo many new discs to try out and I’m still finding out which ones to bag. I’ll have my bag set before my first tournament in february. Someone think I should do an «In The Bag»? 🎀 ——————————————————— #TeamDiscmania #Discmania #Discgolf #PDGA #Frisbee #Disclife #DiscgolfEveryday #Dgshop #Motivation #Workout #Discgolfing #DiscgolfLove #Fitness #DGdaily #Frisbeegolf #LoveWhatYouDo #Frisbeegolfnorge #DGPT #Innova
