Disc Golf Gear 101: How to Choose Your First Disc

Disc Golf Gear 101: How to Choose Your First Disc

March 2026

Why Your First Disc Matters

Your first disc sets the tone for your entire disc golf journey. The right disc can mean the difference between a smooth throw and a frustrating spiral into the trees. That’s why we’re here to help you pick the perfect starter!

Understanding Disc Types

  • Putters: Most stable, easy to control, and perfect for short-distance throws and putting.
  • Midrange Discs: Balance between distance and control, great for medium-distance shots.
  • Fairway Drivers: Faster and fly farther than midrange, but still controllable.
  • Distance Drivers: Fly the farthest but require more technique—save these for later!

Disc Flight Numbers Explained

  • Speed (1-14): Higher numbers = faster discs, require more arm power.
  • Glide (1-7): Higher numbers = disc stays in the air longer.
  • Stability (-3 to 3): Negative = turns easily (good for beginners), positive = stable/overstable.
  • Fade (0-4): Higher numbers = disc fades more at the end of flight.

Pro tip: Beginners should look for discs with lower speed numbers (5-7) and slightly negative stability ratings—they’re way more forgiving!

Choosing Your First Disc: The Flowland Recommendation

  • Start with a Putter: Easiest to throw and helps you develop proper technique. Try Avery Innova Luna, MVP Entropy, or Latitude 64 Luna.
  • Add a Midrange Disc: Once comfortable, try Innova Mako3, MVP Reactor, or Latitude 64 Fuse.
  • Skip the Distance Driver (For Now!): Master putters and midrange discs first for more fun and success.

Material Matters: Plastic Types

  • Baseline Plastics: Durable, affordable, and beginner-friendly.
  • Premium Plastics: More durable and maintain flight longer—worth the investment as you progress.
  • Specialty Plastics: Fun for collecting, but not necessary for beginners!

FAQ: Your Disc Golf Questions Answered

  • How many discs do I need to start? You can start with one putter, but three (putter, midrange, fairway driver) gives you options.
  • What’s the difference between Innova, MVP, and Latitude 64? All are top-tier manufacturers—try each to see what feels best!
  • Do I need a disc golf bag? Not right away! Start with a backpack; upgrade as your collection grows.
  • Will my disc get lost? It happens! Start with affordable discs and write your name/number on them.
  • How do I know if a disc is right for me? Hold it, feel the grip, and throw it! Stop by Flowland for expert help.
  • Can I use the same disc for putting and driving? Absolutely! Start simple, specialize as you progress.

Legal Landscape: Hemp Laws in North Carolina & Federally (2026 Update)

Legal Landscape: Hemp Laws in North Carolina & Federally (2026 Update)

March 2026

November 2025 Federal Legislation & 2026 Implementation

In November 2025, the federal government passed sweeping legislation impacting hemp-derived products nationwide. As of early 2026, these changes are rolling out, with significant consequences for businesses and consumers:

  • Potential Loss of 325,000 Jobs: The new restrictions could put more than 325,000 industry jobs at risk.
  • $25 Billion Industry Impacted: The hemp industry, valued at $25 billion, faces major uncertainty.
  • Loss of Access: 99% of hemp-derived products may become unavailable to consumers if the law is fully enforced.

What’s Legal in North Carolina (2026)

  • CBD: Still legal for sale and use, but subject to new labeling and testing requirements.
  • Hemp and Other Cannabinoids: Facing increased restrictions—always check the latest state guidance before purchasing.
  • Retail Sales: Shops like Flowland remain committed to compliance and advocacy for safe, legal access.

Grassroots Advocacy & Legislative Action

The US Hemp Roundtable and National Industrial Hemp Association (NIHA) are actively fighting to protect your right to hemp-derived products. Grassroots action is crucial:

  • Contact Lawmakers: Make your voice heard—urge them to support hemp-friendly policies.
  • Stay Informed: Follow advocacy groups for updates and action alerts.
  • Support Local Businesses: Your purchases help keep the industry alive!

Get Involved

Final Thoughts

The legal landscape is changing fast, but Flowland stands with our community. We’ll keep you updated and continue to advocate for your access to safe, effective hemp products.

Choosing the Right Disc Golf Driver

Disc Golf Gear Spotlight: Choosing the Right Driver for Your Game

February 2026

Colorful disc golf discs from Latitude 64 and Innova at Flowland

Why Your Driver Matters

The right driver can make all the difference on the disc golf course. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned player, picking the right disc helps you maximize distance, control, and confidence.

Types of Drivers

Distance Drivers

Designed for long throws, these have sharper edges and require more power.

Fairway Drivers

More forgiving and easier to control, perfect for accurate mid-range shots.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Speed: Higher speed discs need more arm strength but can fly farther.
  • Stability: Overstable discs resist turning, while understable discs are easier to throw for beginners.
  • Weight: Lighter discs are easier to throw, especially for new players.
  • Plastic Type: Premium plastics last longer and offer better grip.

Staff Picks at Flowland

Our team recommends the Innova Wraith or Boss for its balance of speed and control, perfect for both new and experienced players. We also have a wide selection from top brands like MVP, Latitude 64, Dynamic, and more, so you can test out different styles and find your favorite.

Sleep, Focus, or Energy? How to Choose the Right Hemp Gummies for Your Wellness Goals

Sleep, Focus, or Energy? How to Choose the Right Hemp Gummies for Your Wellness Goals

Metaphysical Myths Busted: What Crystals Can (and Can’t) Do

Metaphysical Myths Busted: What Crystals Can (and Can’t) Do

March 2026

Crystals are beautiful. They’re fascinating. They’ve been treasured for thousands of years across cultures. But let’s be real—there’s a lot of hype, misconception, and downright false claims floating around about what crystals can actually do. We love crystals here at Flowland, and that’s exactly why we want to set the record straight. Let’s bust some myths and talk about what crystals genuinely offer.

Myth #1: Crystals Can Cure Medical Conditions

The Truth:

Nope. Crystals cannot cure, treat, or prevent any medical condition. Not anxiety, not depression, not cancer, not anything. If you’re dealing with a health issue, please see a qualified healthcare provider. Full stop.

That said, crystals can be part of a wellness routine that supports your overall wellbeing—like meditation, journaling, or creating a calm space. But they’re not a substitute for actual medical treatment.

Myth #2: All Crystals Have Universal Healing Properties

The Truth:

This one’s tricky because crystal properties vary depending on who you ask. Different cultures, spiritual traditions, and crystal practitioners assign different meanings to the same stone. Amethyst might be calming to one person and energizing to another.

The real magic? If a crystal resonates with you personally—if holding it makes you feel grounded, peaceful, or inspired—that’s valid. Your connection to it matters more than any universal rule.

Myth #3: More Expensive Crystals Are More Powerful

The Truth:

Price doesn’t equal power. A $200 crystal isn’t inherently more effective than a $20 one. Price is determined by rarity, size, color, clarity, and market demand—not by spiritual potency. Some of the most beloved crystals (like clear quartz) are affordable and accessible to everyone.

Choose crystals based on what draws you, what fits your budget, and what resonates with your intentions. Not your wallet.

Myth #4: You Have to Cleanse Your Crystals or They Won’t Work

The Truth:

Cleansing is a ritual practice, not a requirement for crystals to function. There’s no scientific evidence that crystals absorb negative energy or need to be reset. But cleansing can be meaningful to you spiritually or emotionally—and that intention matters.

If you want to cleanse your crystals, go for it! Moonlight, sage, sound, or water (depending on the stone) are popular methods. But if you don’t, your crystals will be just fine.

Myth #5: Crystals Work on Their Own

The Truth:

Crystals don’t do anything by themselves. If you’re experiencing a shift in your mood, mindset, or energy after working with crystals, it’s likely because of what you’re bringing to the practice—your intention, your mindfulness, your belief.

Think of crystals as tools for focus and intention-setting, not magic wands. They support your practice; they don’t replace your work.

What Crystals Actually Do (And It’s Pretty Cool!)

  • They’re Beautiful: Surrounding yourself with beauty can genuinely improve your mood and create a calming environment.
  • They Support Mindfulness: Holding a crystal or meditating with one can anchor your intention and help you stay present.
  • They Connect You to Nature: Crystals are millions of years old. Working with them can deepen your appreciation for the Earth.
  • They’re Meaningful Symbols: Crystals carry cultural, spiritual, and personal significance that can support your wellness practice.
  • They Spark Curiosity: Learning about crystals—their geology, history, and cultural significance—is genuinely enriching.

How to Work With Crystals Authentically

  • Choose Crystals That Call to You: Pick stones you’re drawn to, not what you think you should have.
  • Set Your Own Intentions: Decide what each crystal means to you and how you want to work with it.
  • Use Them Mindfully: Meditate with them, carry them, place them on your altar, or simply admire them.
  • Enjoy Them as Art: You don’t need a spiritual practice to love crystals.
  • Combine With Other Practices: Crystals work best alongside meditation, journaling, therapy, and exercise.
  • Be Skeptical of Big Claims: If someone says a crystal will cure your disease, that’s a red flag.

The Bottom Line

Crystals are wonderful tools for intention-setting, mindfulness, and creating a beautiful, grounded space. They’re not magic, but they can support your journey if you approach them with realistic expectations and an open heart.

At Flowland, we believe in celebrating crystals for what they truly are—gorgeous natural objects with deep cultural and spiritual significance. Whether you’re a seasoned crystal collector or just starting your journey, we’re here to help you find stones that resonate with you. No pressure, no hype—just good vibes and beautiful crystals.

Disc Golf Accessories You Didn’t Know You Needed

Disc Golf Accessories You Didn’t Know You Needed (But You’ll Love)

April 2026

Disc golf gear and accessories at Flowland Counter-Culture Outlet Aberdeen NC

You’ve got discs. You’ve got a bag. You’re ready to rip… until you’re knee-deep in a creek, your hands are muddy, and your favorite driver disappears into the shadow realm.

That’s where accessories come in. Here are the disc golf extras we love at Flowland — the little things that make rounds smoother, less frustrating, and way more fun.

The “Why Didn’t I Buy This Sooner” Accessories

1) A Good Towel (or Two)

A towel is the difference between a clean release and a slippery mess.

Best for: humidity, muddy fairways, dew rounds

Pro tip: keep one towel for discs and one for hands.

2) Chalk / Grip Bag

If your hands get sweaty, grip can disappear fast.

Best for: summer rounds, tournament nerves, anyone who hates a surprise slip

3) Mini Marker

You can play without one… but once you use one, it’s hard to go back.

Best for: marking your lie quickly, keeping things consistent, looking like you know what you’re doing

4) Disc Retriever

If you play near water, thick brush, or “I swear it landed right here” woods, a retriever can save you money.

Best for: water hazards, thorny rough, keeping your favorite disc in your life

5) Scorecard / App Setup

Even casual rounds are more fun when you track progress.

Best for: seeing improvement, friendly competition, learning what discs you actually throw well

Comfort + Convenience Upgrades

  • Bug spray and sunscreen: the real MVPs
  • Water bottle: hydration = better throws
  • Band-aids / blister care: new players, we see you
  • Umbrella or rain jacket: because weather has opinions

Small Habits That Make Accessories Work

  • Keep a “round kit” in your bag so you’re always ready.
  • Restock after rainy rounds.
  • Don’t wait until you lose a disc to buy a retriever.

FAQ

What’s the #1 accessory for beginners?

A towel and a mini marker are the easiest upgrades that immediately help.

Do I really need a retriever?

If you play near water even occasionally, it can pay for itself fast.

Ready to upgrade your round?

Swing by Flowland in Aberdeen, NC and tell us where you play and what drives you crazy during rounds — we’ll point you to the accessories that actually help.
