Good job guys. I think this is a good idea, obviously for rec use. If you could develop a little lighter one I would buy it for practicing in my back yard.
Anyone who can come up with more ways for getting people interested in disc golf gets a thumbs up from me. Keep up the good work guys!!!!!
Hi mydeargirl1, if you actually bought one let us know the order. We have struck trees and the units hold, up, but you can't repeatedly bash them. We see little reduction in disc performance as long as you install it on a lighter weight disc and center it. Yes, the units do have limitations, which we intend to be honest about. The units are meant for natural grasslands, which parks are more and more restoring, offering play in a beautiful ecosytem. Look forward to hearing further. Thanks.
"Avoid hard impacts. Do not use golf disc alarm where hard strikes with trees or fixed objects are likely. Damage to the unit or separation from the disc can result."
Well this takes out the other 50% of courses built anywhere besides a padded room.
Lopsided no matter how you install it.
Also if it doesnt work on your white discs you can always find a green disc in the tall grass.
Enjoyed the comment from zwmoses. In editing the video the best throw shot audio was the white disc, and best finding audio was with the green disc. Not a pro at youtube vids. And yes, the product is not for competitive players. Rec use only. The big issue for myself and friends was to allow play in rural natural areas without having to mow big fairways. We are all old guys just having some fun. We install on lighter discs to allow for the unit weight.
You threw a white disc and found a green disc. Confused. Did you lose the white one? lol.
This thing adds 28 (1 oz) to your disc? If you're planning on being competitive this would not be a great product. It could be a great deal for those guys who are going out to play rec rounds and don't want to spend the extra cash though.
For other great disc finding products for water hazards check out Fizzee Disc (a little bubbler that goes on the bottom of your disc) search for "Fizzee Disc" in youtube. When you see the bubbles, to pull your disc out of the water use a Golden Retriever, search for "golden retriever marshall street"

The beta will easily hold up to regular play, but extreme impacts will damage the units, so we do not recommend use where close tree strikes are likely on release. If there is sufficient interest in the product we will be able to persuade our manufacturing partner to invest in upgrades to improve durability, reduced weight and water resistance.

So I just stumbled upon this and I feel this is a very good idea with a very useless application.
QUOTES DIRECTLY FOR THE SITE:
"The unit is not waterproof. Do not use near water hazards or during wet conditions."
Well this takes out over 50% of the courses that are built around natural rivers and bodies of water.
