Who Plays? What courses do you play? What is your favorite course?

I play once or twice a week. My group plays all over Columbus. I think so far this year we have played Griggs Hoover Blendon Lancaster Pickerington Water tower and Pickerington Church course. I think my favorite course is Blendon but i used to enjoy Hoover a lot.

Yes. Like running, it's a very easy hobby to pick up and do.

I had never heard of it until a few years ago when my buddy invited me out to this local state park. We were hanging out and hitting softballs when this guy started throwing this frisbee 75 yards. We were near the guy and he asked if we wanted to play. He explained the rules and we played the course. I did pretty decent and I enjoyed it. I haven't played since but I probably will go grab a starter kit and play again as I have a couple of buddies who are interested.

This is a requirement.

I love disc golf, I wish there were more places to play in NYC.

Cbus has several nice courses..

I play about twice a week. Delaware is my favorite course around here. Hoover needs to get their shit together and open up the back nine again. Blendon is decent and nice when it's hot cuz it's shaded. Hole 15 on Blendon was my only hole in one ever.

Except, it's not easy to do well.

When did the name change from frisbee golf? Is "frisbee" a registered trademark or something?

I wait until the 3rd hole usually.

Immediately started thinking about which courses had the first woods at the third hole lol. I have a bunch of Innovas and some others I found. I have a nice night time one I found. Tho I always throw fluorescent orange or yellow because of all I've lost over the years. My level is about +/-1 doing all par 3's at Hoover. Also I just saw a sweet ad for discs you can charge that light up, not sure of the name.
