Disc Golf: Don’t Forget, We Play Because It’s Fun

Don’t Forget, We Play Because It’s Fun

Sometimes I find myself or others I play disc golf with forgetting the entire reason we play this game to begin with, it’s FUN! This is a recreational hobby for 95% of everyone who ever plays, so don’t get all bent out of shape if you screw up a few shots and end up with a triple bogey. It’s not the end of the world if your drive biffs into the ground 10 feet in front of you or nails a tree 20 feet down the fairway. That’s the beauty of the game. The challenge keeps it interesting but the comradery and being in the great outdoors is the hook. Of course we all want to throw 600 foot drives, drill 300 foot aces, nail 90 foot putts and birdie every single hole but if it wasn’t supposed to be fun then why play to begin with?

I found a couple of videos that in themselves are fun to watch but also remind every disc golf enthusiast to keep having fun and maximize the disc golf experience.

This one is a classic. It’s a light-hearted introduction to the game that is worth watching.
