Re: Ultimate Ascent Strategies

How about an upgraded hanger (the one I am pushing for currently): Hang for thirty, dump twenty, and deploy a net at the back of the holding area for disks to take the last two at a toss. 60 point climb, and then just have low/(maybe middle, depending on whether middle is above 60") capability. Think this would work pretty well.

Another idea was the "Ultimate Assist Bot", as it were. Camp under the feeder station, with a holding area in its back, and just shoot all the disks down to the friendly side of the field so others can go for threes.

Also, going back to the pickup idea, anyone ever used a pooper scooper or something to the effect? I was doing some "testing" with my hands, and I found that two relatively flat flaps coming together, much like a backhoe or something like that, make it very, very easy to pick up disks. Just have that skimming the floor, and lifting the disks up to the holding bay.
