Best place to buy a disc? Bay Area

topic posted Wed, August 17, 2005 - 3:07 PM by  sweet.jesus!
I'm down to 4 discs now, and need to go shopping again. I'm not a huge fan of online purchases, and would appreciate any recommendations on sporting goods stores that carry usable discs. Know of any?

    I'm in So Cal now, but when I lived in Saratoga and played Santa Cruz, the guys were always out there with a trunk fulla discs.

      You can find the trunks full of discs at De La Veaga and in Berkeley there is a guy with buckets of discs that have been fished out of the water way..... as per stores I hear REI and small time sporting good shops are now stocking discs....

        Oh yeah -- completely forgot about the onsite vendor. Probably my best bet, as REI sounds a bit overpriced for my blood. Thanks for the advice!

          There is also a liquor store in Santa Cruz I forgot the name maybe ABC liquir or Scott's something like that on the corner on the way to De la Veaga. They have a lot of discs there for a resonable price, every time I went to play I got a disc there, it is a cool little place, they have a lot of discs.

            Yeah the market is DJ's on the corner of water and branciforte..... a few years ago the owner let one of the workers take over a wall to sell discs... great idea......

              The SF Disc Golf Club has discs for sale at its weekly on Sundays between 9-10am at the Marx Meadow course -- big discounts for clkub members ($11 for champion plastic for example). There will also be a *ton* for sale this weekend at the 17th annual SF Safari tournament at 25th and Lincoln www.sfdiscgolf.org/safari/index.html
