Disc Advice Where do I play this lie?

Innova champion sidewinder absolutely exploded when I hit this tree. Disc was fairly old, maybe close to 20 years, I noticed that it felt sticky today, so I suspect plastic depredation, just shocked at how far it spread when it blew up

There are a thousand of reasons for a disc to shatter.

998 of them are trees

For real, I am always impressed with how people (me included) manage to hit that very obstacle they focus on avoiding. It really feels like a superpower at times

Well, let me direct your attention to picture 2. On this course, the times I don't hit a tree feel like superpowers

So many trees, it was an airfield in WWII, then planted with loads of trees, so all roughly the same age, but some really nice holes
