Disk Golfing....

One really great sport/hobby that has become quite popular in MN is Disk Golf.  I have gone along with the guys for YEARS as they went disk golfing (to be a caddy and get exercise!), but I was too scared to try it out for myself until this year.  I am not going to pretend that I am any good at it, but at least I am trying :)

My favorite course (the only one I've ever played! LOL) is at Lakewood Hills in WBL, behind the YMCA.  It is only a 14-hole course, but has both rolling hills and holes throughout the woods.  Like regular golf, there is a tee, but instead of aiming your disk at a "hole", there is a metal basket you need to get your disk into.  Since it was so pretty a few days ago when I played, I brought my camera along to sneak in a  few pics while we played.

 

Like I said, some of the holes are in the woods.....kind of looks like a setting for a Horror Movie.....would make a good place for a "Haunted Woods" Halloween event!

 

I love birch trees!

Does anyone else out there disk golf?????

I have never heard of Disk Golf but it looks like a BLAST! Hopefully Utah will catch on!

I used to go with Katie. We call it frisbee golf though. I tried it once and sucked at it but I had fun.

i used to have a (sort of) roommate who was a pro disc golfer. i had never heard of it before and though it was super odd! but i think it would be fun to try.

Good for you! This looks like so much fun. I've heard of it but never played. I don't think I've heard anyone I know in AZ mention it, but people in MI used to play. It's awesome that you're getting in the game yourself. The course looks so nice. The trees there are making me miss home! I love birch trees, too. My parents had one in our backyard when I was growing up. It was always my favorite. Thanks for sharing!
