Feb. 5th Respose: General Conclusions

I have many conclusions about my subculture, however they are not 'general' conclusions because I already have the experiences that verify those conclusions. Because I have been a Frisbee golfer for a great deal of time, it is difficult for me to remember what my general conclusions were when I first encountered the sport. I first remember thinking that it was kind of silly: the idea of throwing a Frisbee toward a little bucket on a stick. Previous to my introduction to Frisbee golf, I thought a Frisbee was just an object you threw back and forth between two people. It really was not a game to me, more of a fun activity for a day in the park or on the beach. So I suppose one of my general conclusions about Frisbee is that it was originally not a sport to me, but now it is of course. My next general conclusion was probably that it was going to be easy. This is a common general conclusion with sports though, and usually that sport turns out to be far more difficult that you had previously thought. That is what I soon discovered, and so that was a general conclusion that turned out to be false. I have played for more than four years now and Frisbee golf is still nowhere near easy!
