Explore Disc Golf | Town of Wakefield
Explore Disc Golf | Town of Wakefield: "The Big Idea for the design of the Town of Wakefield’s 9-hole disc golf course was to provide a beginner-friendly layout that has high visibility to the surrounding land uses, while moving course users to significant on-site features throughout the dense New England woods. The course begins and ends in the center of the site where parking is ample, while the overall layout circumvents a large baseball field and soccer pitch. Many of the holes are visible from the sports fields, surrounding residential units and nearby road, but far enough away where there are no safety concerns. Locating the course in this section of the property was done so to help maximize the town’s investment by visible promotion of the course."

According to the Professional Disc Golf Association, the sport is played much like traditional golf, but instead of using a ball and clubs, players use a flying disc or Frisbee, which is thrown from a tee area to a target called a “hole,” which in most cases is an elevated metal basket. The object of the game is to complete each hole in the fewest throws. The sport is designed so that people of all ages and abilities can play."

Jaw muscles are a personal favorite as that’s what moves your jaws and allows you to eat bacon.

So much so that AB didn't even make the start line and Shane and Lawton understandably pulled out before the end of the 1st round. I think I would be correct in thinking that the remaining 18 would've had moments of serious doubt about continuing as well."

Anyone ever suctioned/attached a GoPro to a disc? - Disc Golf Course Review
Anyone ever suctioned/attached a GoPro to a disc? - Disc Golf Course Review: "Has anyone ever suctioned/attached a GoPro to the top of a disc? Just not sure of the practicality/possibility of it. GoPros are really very light but would take some distance off your throw of course. I just wonder if you measured out the disc and placed the GoPro in the true center of the disc if it would maintain flight long enough to get that kind of video. "

Five Ways you can #GrowTheSport of Disc Golf - theHyze
Five Ways you can #GrowTheSport of Disc Golf - theHyze: "If you hang out at your local course, chances are, you will see some new disc golfers holding an entry level driver or mid-range disc. Most likely, a fellow disc golfer told them a few things about disc golf, and here they are. They might ask you which way the basket is or what disc would you throw. You’re an awesome person, so you gladly talk to them and help out any way you can because a new player is eventually going to bring more players into the sport of disc golf. Here are five easy ways to grow the sport that you may not have thought about before."

What's stopping disc golf from being a mainstream sport? - Minneapolis Disc Golf | Examiner.com: " have wanted disc golf to become a mainstream sport for many years so more people would play and appreciate what a great sport it is. I am sad to say, I don't think what I and many others have wanted for a long time, will happen any time soon. The biggest reason I see for this is that the sport seems to be too linked with the drug culture. Even though drugs are becoming more acceptable in our society, I don’t think the majority of people want to participate in sports or other events that are associated so closely with drug use."

Am I the only one that is seeing this progressing? And in the process, rewarding those players who have bad attitudes with sponsorships at major disc golf manufacturers. Makes guys like me, who are not top pros, never want to play a major tournament again. Does these manufacturers hold some responability on managing their talent? Do they not enforce rules on ethics and sportsmanship? Or is it really about getting that last dollar from us fans who buy everything no matter who is slinging it?"

Is brand loyalty stupid? - Page 13 - Disc Golf Course Review
Is brand loyalty stupid? - Page 13 - Disc Golf Course Review: "^ HAha....I just mean, using only 1 brand always and forever, is dumb....You may miss out on something that works very well for you. BUT If you have been there and done that with all the brands and just want to go 100% one brand for the fun of it, then go for it. I just meant, Only using/buying one brand and bashing all other brands just because its not the one YOU have is dumb. That is all....I have a buddy who is 100% innova and likes to trash talk, and a buddy who is 100% prodigy and has no interest in any disc if its not Prodigy.....so....I think thats kinda dumb."

300ft drive + 200ft up shot = competitive anywhere? - Disc Golf Course Review
300ft drive + 200ft up shot = competitive anywhere? - Disc Golf Course Review: "I've played alot of courses and it seems now that I can drive 300ft+ and make approach shots (putter/midrange) from 200ft+, I can at least be competitive at just about any course. This doesn't mean "winning" it just means it's good enough to play decent and at least be competitive on typical cards. Has anyone else had a similar thought at this point in their game or am I still a bit off? lol.. Thx."

Obnoxious Disc Golfers: A Teaching Moment - Disc Golf Family: "They’re blasting loud music, cursing, and impatiently tossing their discs at your family’s heels. Your ideal day has just been hijacked and all you can think about is how to get away from these fools.
When the idea crossed my mind to write this article, I was tempted to get on my soap box and go on about how these rude disc golfers should clean up their acts and realize how their behavior is bad for the sport. However, I realized the obnoxious disc golfer is not going to read my posts anyway.
So, instead of wasting my time trying to talk to an audience I don’t have (or want) I will offer to you, my audience of thoughtful, fun-loving disc golf families, some suggestions on turning these unfortunate episodes into teaching moments."

By now you've probably heard of frisbee golf but have you ever heard of foot golf? It's a new twist on soccer and golf which got it's start in the Netherlands in 2009 and recently has made its way to Spokane.
You can be great at golf and good at soccer but still struggle with this relatively new sport. My best advice after playing nine holes is to work on your short game. Everything else seems to fall into place after that."
