Hell's bells .... I first played disc golf back in the 80's in California before it was a big thing and you needed 14 different discs ..... it was fun, but, I'll take regular golf ....🌫

Before My neck got messed up, I used to play alot. Don't get out too much anymore, It's hard to concentrate and play well when on pain meds. Can't play without them, hurts too much. But hellz yeah. Disc Golf is great fun.

Been playing about ten years if you count only organized disc with baskets and such. Played object golf back in the 70's and early 80's. A client turned me on to the current game and I was hooked from the first round. Pretty lucky here in our little corner of the world, lots of public courses and four private, "backyard" courses that are even more challenging. There's a small group of us that play late every Wednesday afternoon year round, rotating from course to course each week. Love it!!!

Yup, check on e-bay. It's obscene, the auction prices for some of those old discs.

I started playing cause I could not afford to hit range balls. It is really big in the Houston area and we have tourney's every month. It is a great game and I can't wait until my son is old enough to play with me.

Heheheh, I started playing because I ran out of excuses with this particular client who invited me, and sumbuck if I didn't fall for it head over heels. He is now fond of telling folks how the first time I showed up with a Whamo lid to play with, so he gifted me some of his old plastic... and it was on.

Because of this thread I played this afternoon. Shot a +4. Then ran into some old discgolf buddies, got drunk, and shot a par. Hit a 350foot basket on the top ring. 4 birdies 4 bogies. Now that was a good day. Thanks for reminding me!

Good deal Driz and Lou. Had our Humpday casual round at my Ramcat course yesterday afternoon. Beautiful blue skies and no wind after a day and a half of rain. I always love playing, but those Wednesday afternoon casual rounds are just the best, everyone relaxed, just playing for the game, you'll see some of the best golf shots you'll ever see........ Big, big fun!!!
