More madness at the ZING laboratory…

As you all know, I’m always experimenting with the newest technologies to enhance our mini discs. The UV/Glow trials made recently continue with some amazing outcomes. Keep a lookout for these when you make a custom order. You will definitely be happy to find some in your package!

Hey gang, I know it’s been awhile, but I wanted to share some new developments. The website has a new item added to the ZING lineup as well with a new front page. Thank you Blue Spot Designs and web page development for this transition.

We now have the Flapjack minis available for custom orders! Same artwork size as the standard minis. These guys are very flat and will fly (with a little hyzer) and are PDGA legal as a marker.

So ZING on over the the website and grab your Flapjacks!

So are you all ready to blow your minds on what kind of plastic your discs and other plastic items are made of? Well, here you go. There are very simple ways of identifying your simple plastic items that you use from day to day. This chart was formulated by an engineering group where we developed these tasks to see what polymer family we were working with. The bad part about the tests are that the specimens will go through some destructive testing .

All you need is a glass of water, a lighter or propane torch, and a knife to cut a sliver of the specimen. And please remember your chemistry class on how to smell something. (whiff your hand above the item you are smelling, don't put your nose directly in it, ....dummy)

Boiler Plate: I am not responsible for any of your testing procedures. Do this at your own risk!!!

Have fun and I'd like to hear some feedback of what you test!!

Check out this long video I’ve been wanting to make for awhile. I recycle as best as I can. Watch to the end to see the outcome of grinding scrap mini discs and then molding with scrap hot stamp foil. Amazing outcome.

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Stay tuned to see how ZING is doing it’s best to recycle everything possible in our manufacturing operations. Sustainability should be everyone’s goal, and I will soon show how we handle our recycling.

Something new on the horizon. So many ingredients to add to a single disc.

I'd like to make a general post about the same manufacturers mold, different runs, and colors that are used. It happens with every injection molded disc, mini, or widget for this matter.

With that said. The prime uncolored, plastic used for a particular model will be very consistent from shot to shot. These shots will be clear in color and consistent with the way they feel and the weight of each disc. Simply, Consistent.

Now. Add colorant. The colorant is made from different organic and inorganic additives. TiO2 (used for white) and Carbon black for black discs for example. One would think Carbon black is heavier than titanium dioxide. Maybe? Check it out on your own discs.

Each colorant added to golf discs contains different elements of additives that affect the 4 plastic variables in injection molding. (temperature, flow, pressure, and cooling). These colorants are considered impurities to the natural (base) plastic and can will possibly affect the outcome of the finished disc.

So. For those of you that have a similar mold of disc, and in the same weight, the color may affect the feel, flight, and performance of the given disc.

I'm open for thoughts and comments on this topic.

What an AMAZING Barsby weekend!

First. I want to thank everyone that contributed to make this successful event happen in such a short time. Matt Boals, Josh Fortney, Scott (from Big Lug) Matt Gettys, The Indy boys, the Hamilton boys, the Rowells, the 80+players and the list goes on...Thank YOU!

Most importantly. Casey and Gregg. As most of you know, I am one of the biggest fanboys of the Barsbyline. Always will be. I love you both and wish you both great luck for the remaining 2022 season. You are always welcome in Indy.

Below are some photos of their visit. I had a blast, and I hope everyone else had a good time.
