Do any of you play this? I have been for about a year now liesurely. It's an awesome way to get some air, exercise, shoot the bull, have a beer, smoke, etc. We played a tournament, my first, yesterday. It was set out on an actual 9 hole golf course, with baskets placed around it for the discs. The holes were incredibly long, a lot being 750 to 1000 yards. The second round was doubles at night. Crazy. It was also my first night golf round. We use glow sticks for the discs and baskets. Fuck, we were out there until 1:00 am. I sucked horribly, didn't win any prizes, and lost a disc, but it was still great fun. I would recommend this to those of you that may have a nice course in the woods nearby.

Never played it. Not popular around here at all, but I'd gladly give it a shot.

It's awful. You carry around a sack of gay little frisbees, and you toss them at a target like a retard. The scenery is nice, but the capper is the people. These fall into two main groups: a) professional disc golfers, the very existence of which blows my mind; they have sponsor logos and shit on their frisbee holsters and take themselves way, way to seriously, and b) fiilthy guttertrash hippies who are so far beyond self-caricature they make me violent. Everybody on the course is a living joke, and they're all doing drugs the whole damn time. 'Cause disc golf is free. I prefer real golf. Greens fees keep out the riffraff. Golf courses are about the only place in the area to get away from the damn hippies.

I haven't played real golf in forever. I actually used to go quite often, but the game would piss me off. I never got any better. 75% of my shots went 15 yards exactly to my right(or just the regular kind of slice). I'd end up wanting to throw all my clubs in that pond on the 6th hole.

I detest hippies like little else. |

Rhode Island actually has an 18 hole disc golf course. It's a cool concept. I wouldn't invest money, but I'd try it out.
