	Great Lakes Discus, Discus Fish Breeder
		I was told that the parameters for keeping a discus would be almost impossible to maintain.
		I have purchased many discus from Roy to add to my bloodlines and in my opinion Roy is a quality man not a quantity man. He fits my needs because he sends me discus that are of healthy, high quality breeding stock.
		But overall I am seeing many people fail in the discus hobby because they are receiving sick discus from suppliers who are not caring for or treating their discus properly.

	Discus throw - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The discus, the object to be thrown, is a lens-shaped heavy disc with a diameter of 220 mm (8.66 inches) and a weight of two kilograms (4 lb 7 oz) for the men's event, and one kg (2 lb 3 oz) for the women's, with a smaller diameter of 182 mm (7.17 inches).
		A practice discus made of solid rubber is often used in high school; it is cheaper, more durable, and easier to learn to throw with (due to the more equal distribution of weight, as opposed to the heavy rim weight of the metal rim/core disci).
		The discus must land within a 40-degree or 60-degree arc marked by lines on the landing zone, and the competitor must not exit the circle until the discus has landed, then must wait for the judge to give clearance to exit the ring from any direction.

	Discus - LoveToKnow 1911
		Throwing the discus was introduced as an event in modern athletics at the revived Olympic Games, first held at Athens in 1896, and since that time it has become a recognized event in the athletic championship meetings of several European nations, as well as in the United States, where it has become very popular.
		According to the American rules the discus must be of a smooth, hard-wood body without finger-holes, weighted in the centre with lead disks and capped with polished brass disks, with a steel ring on the outside.
		It must be thrown from a 7 -ft. circle, which may not be overstepped in throwing, and the throw is measured from the spot where the discus first strikes the ground to the point in the circumference of the circle on a line between the centre and the point of striking.
