What is Disc Golf
The object of the game is to complete each hole in the fewest number of throws, starting from a tee area and finishing with the disc coming to rest in the basket or chains. Generally, a course is made up of 9 or 18 holes.
Players start at hole one and complete the course in order, playing through to the last hole. The player with the lowest total cumulative throws wins. Disc Golf can be played for fun or competitively.
Disc golf courses can differ from traditional golf courses in a few ways, mainly because they are on a wide variety of terrain and land often not suitable for other park activities or development, but perfect terrain for a disc golf course.
