Credits Introduction Welcome to our Chemical Engineering Materials project home page! We are producing this web page to examine the materials engineering and science technologies that are used in the fast-growing sport of disc golf. If you've never heard of disc golf and want to learn more, click here. If you'd rather learn as little as possible, read on. Discs are basically frisbees which have been modified to fly farther and straighter than a normal frisbee. Like golf clubs, discs come in a variety of shapes and sizes so that different discs have different flight patterns. A professional disc golfer might carry as many as 12 different discs. Although the shape of the disc is certainly the factor which determines most of a disc's flight characteristics, most of the innovation in the equipment today is in the field of polymer (plastic) engineering. Most disc golfers know that golf discs are made of plastics it is common to hear a conversation such as this one at your local course: Russ: Hey Jacob, how was Spring Break? Did you pick up any new plastic while you were down in Orlando?

Extractions: With no greens fees and no sans-a-belt pants, disc golf is slowly but surely becoming a legitimate alternative to the standard whack-the-ball-with-a-club golf, or as its referred to in disc golf circles, Ball Golf. As opposed to the ball variety which uses, um a ball, disc golf incorporates the same basic rules, but is played with a flying disc or Frisbee instead. The sport has been around in one form or another for at least 20 years. Thats when Ed Headrick invented the Pole Hole, the standard goal used in the sport. Its a misnomer to say before 1975 that the game didnt exist. It was just called Frisbee golf, says Headrick, who is also the inventor of the Frisbee itself and the Super Ball both of which he invented while at Wham-O. He now runs a company called the Disc Golf Association which manufactures the Pole Hole on which he holds three patents the patent for the Frisbee he sold to Wham-O for $10. One of his Pole Hole patents just expired, and he fears other companies will try to copy his design. The Pole Hole design is the accepted hole for disc golf. Other designs one, a metal tube that produces a gong when struck seem primitive compared to the Pole. And, the fact that the sound of chains in the distance has become synonymous with the hollow dice cup sound of a golf ball rattling home maintains the dominance of the Pole Hole. Headrick, who has been called the Obi-Wan Kenobi of Disc Golf, not for his Jedi mind tricks (These arent the Discs youre looking for) but for perhaps his semi-resemblance to Alec Guinness and his paternal attitude in promoting the sport. He is also the founder of the Professional Disc Golf Association, which now holds an annual World Championship. This year the event will be held in South Bend, Indiana in August, and will truly determine the world champion.

Extractions: To most people Frisbee is the generic name for flying discs, but the name was trademarked by Wham-O and so we have official Frisbees. These discs are all good quality products in original manufacturers packaging. You may find cheaper discs in sea-side shops or get them free with cereal packet tops, but those discs are generally not fit for throwing or catching. There is little fun to be had playing with a disc which you have no prospect of being able to control. Would you buy a car which had a wheel missing Home Discs for sale Derek Robins Quarry Park ... About Disc Golf
Who Was The 'First To Fling'? Today the fifty year old frisbee is owned by Mattel Toy only one of at least sixty manufacturers of flying discs. founded the game of Disc Golf in 1976. http://www.zooscape.com/cgi-bin/maitred/YellowLoop/questw10000179/critiquet00000
Extractions: Every object has a history, and behind that history an inventor, the person who thought it up first. Sometimes who was first can be a topic for hot debate: often several people independent of each other will all think of the same good idea at around the same time and will later have to argue No it was me, I thought of it first. Many people have claimed to have invented the Frisbee. The Frisbie Baking Company (1871-1958) of Bridgeport, Connecticut, made pies that were sold to many New England colleges. Hungry college students soon discovered that the empty pie tins could be tossed and caught, providing endless hours of game and sport. Many colleges have claimed to be the home of 'he who was first to fling.' Yale College has even argued that in 1820, a Yale undergraduate named Elihu Frisbie grabbed a passing collection tray from the chapel and flung it out into the campus, thereby becoming the true inventor of the Frisbie and winning glory for Yale. That tale is unlikely to be true since the words 'Frisbie's Pies' was embossed in all the original pie tins and from the word 'Frisbie' was coined the common name for the toy. In 1948, a Los Angeles building inspector named Walter Frederick Morrison and his partner Warren Franscioni invented a plastic version of the Frisbie that could fly further and with better accuracy than a tin pie plate. Morrison's father was also an inventor, who invented the automotive sealed-beam headlight. Another interesting tidbit was that Morrison had just returned to America after World War II, where he had been a prisoner in the infamous Stalag 13. His partnership with Warren Franscioni, who was also a war veteran, ended before their product had achieved any real success.

Extractions: Yale and Dartmouth students fling pie tins, from the Frisbie Pie Company, as a recreational activity. In 1949, Californian inventor, Fred Morrison realizes that plastics technology can be used to make a disc shaped flying toy. That year, his first flying disc, the Pipco Flying Saucer hit the market. On the east coast, Bill Robs markets the Space Saucer in college campus book stores. In 1954, the first "Frisby match" was held at Dartmouth College. Morrison improves his invention with a second disc, the Pluto Platter, with the now famous "Play catch—invent games" engraved on the back. Was disc golf one of these games?
