Update on me.
Here is the scoop. My elbow on my throwing arm is recovering just fine. It is to the point where I can start throwing discs again. I also found out what help cause me to hyperextend my elbow. I got a brand new Nintendo DS a couple months ago and the way I was holding it caused my elbow to start hurting. My elbow really started to hurt even more after throwing a few discs. So trying to loosen up my arm, I threw a disc to hard and hyperextend my elbow.
Other than my elbow getting better, I had an opportunity to teach Disc golf to a bunch of Cub Scouts at there camp. The bad news is that I had other plans that I had to do (My Mother’s Birthday). I let them borrow my portable disc basket and about 10 discs. I showed the counselor a few ways to throw the disc and some footing directions. I also shared some facts about disc golf. I recommended how to set up a single hole with the disc basket. After the camp was over I visited with the counselor when he brought my stuff back. He told me how much the kids enjoyed throwing the discs at the basket. He set up about a 225 to 275 foot hole for them to throw. He had to keep chasing kids to their next sporting event to allow others to try it. He told me next time they have something similar to this camp, he was plan on inviting me to it and borrow my stuff again.
I’m also going to be in Keokuk this weekend for the holiday. I’m going to plan on throwing at the courses down there. I’m going to take a break on Saturday to watch the Iowa Hawkeyes stomp Montana. I might see some of you on the course if you are down there. I’ll keep everyone informed on how I throw this weekend coming off my elbow injury.
