You guys got your golf...

[thechasm442]

...and I have my disc golf. Smoked a 2 year old obsidian petite corona and shot-6 playing every hole as a par 3. First time out in a year and I'm excited for the season!

You know some of us could say something disparaging about disc golf...but its still way better than a day at the office.

I used to be a frisbee maniac and played ultimate in college, but have not picked one up in years. The other day I got lost in some backwoods country town and there in the middle of nowhere was a disc golf course. I jus seemed like an oasis in the middle of the Stix.

Golf is like sex.....you don't have to be good at it to have a good time

I Like disc golf too. never played on a real course we just make our own. Have played in a few years though.

[Lapithicus]

Thanks for posting this. It made me remember that I had bought a couple of discs for my son and me for Christmas. It is such a nice day, I think I'll dig them out and go play.

I have played twice and I suck, but it is fun

This is exactly how real golf is for me.

Used to play a lot of disc golf in my stoner days, 10-15 years ago. I was even worse at it than I am at real golf. Just could never get my drives to go straight with any distance. Sure was a lot of fun, though. We have a lot of courses in the area. I'd love to get out and play again sometime.

Nice shootin Kevin!

Way to get out and have some fun!

Ya! It's amazing how much the game has proliferated!

I hope you find out that you have some friends that are playing it and get on out there and give it a whirl...

[Bowtech4ever]

You got that right! People like us are proof that you don't have to be a 16 year old stoner to play!

[AlanS]

Wait a minute I'm a 16 year old stoner!

Sorry flashback that was forty years ago.

I agree. Makes it much easier to set the disc on fire.



















































































(Yes, I suck at the game) :p

You better not....you don't know how many of us play disc golf ;)

It requires just as much skill as traditional golf and it's a lot of fun. I started playing when I wasn't making enough money to afford to golf and while I don't play as much now that I make more money I still enjoy it. I live in one of the biggest disc golf areas in the country, we have more courses vs our population here than anywhere but 1-2 places. If you guys are ever in my area I'd be happy to play a round or two and I'm pretty good at teaching so if you need help with mechanics I'm pretty knowledgeable. My brother and I have played competitively a bit...

^ Thanks for the generous offer! ^

You're only a couple hours west on 80 from me. Ever play any Joliet/Chicago area courses?

[Ropey]

There's one kinda near me that I've always wanted to try but it's in a city park where smoking is illegal [emoji24]

No, unfortunately I haven't. I go to Chicago quite a bit because my GF's family is from there but normally our schedule is so busy I don't even bring my bag. One of these days I'll get around to it though! We have a lot of really nice courses though, if you ever want to make a trip let me know.

Major bummer__! :( A gar on the course is a hoot...

[AUotto]

I haven't found a version of golf I don't like... Golf, disc golf, Golden Tee, the game formerly known as Tiger Woods PGA Tour, I love them all. Smoke lots of cigars on the golf course, but never thought of firing one up while playing disc golf. What a great idea! Gonna try this very soon.
