If you have never heard of disc golf then where have you been?

Disc Golf has been around since the early 1900s in various forms and is a sport played by people all over the globe.

In fact, the Professional Disc Golf Association has over 100,000 members worldwide.

It is BIG in Canada 🇨🇦 and the USA 🇺🇸

 

It is essentially golf but played with discs (or frisbees as some call them).

A golf disc is thrown from a tee area to a target, which is the "hole." The hole can be one of a number of disc golf targets; the most common is an elevated metal basket or keep. As a player progresses down the fairway, they must make each consecutive throw from the spot where the previous throw landed. The trees, shrubs, and terrain changes located in and around the fairways provide challenging obstacles for the golfer. Finally, the "putt" lands in the basket and the hole is completed.

 

There is more to the discs than meets the eye; in the same way you have various clubs for golf, you have various discs for disc golf. We have drivers and putters, some discs favour the left, some the right. It is a serious sport and is highly addictive and competitive.
