Disc Golf

Anybody play? Or know of any good local courses?
I was introduced to the sport three days ago and I'm already addicted lol.

Used to play. There is actually one a few blocks from Track Dog. I'd love to play again.

There's Z-Boaz in Ft Worth off of Vickery, just north of I-20, Veteran's Park in Arlington, Audubon Park in Garland off of Oates just north of 635, and BB Owen on Plano Rd just south of 635.

I'm sure there are more, but those are the 4 I frequented back when I played. Veteran's is by far the best of the lot.

You talking about B.B. Owen park at Walnut Hill and Plano Road? Used to play there all the time. My discs disappeared during last year's move, but I may have to pick up a few at Academy this weekend...

I used to play at Veteran's all the time when I lived in Arlington. It's a small park, but very challenging.

Lewisville lake has a fun course. Denton has one at North Lakes Park, and Flower Mound has a good learners course. I'd like to play again, it's been a few years.

Maybe we need to have a MME Disc Golf meet!

I'm game for a Saturday or Sunday. (I'll need to pick up some discs again.)

Is that the one in the woods off of 67 near Mt Lebanon and Texas Plume Road?

EDIT: Just found it... yep, I've been there. That's a really nice place to go stomping around.

That is what almost happened to Cory last week, while we were looking for one of his. We were looking and this lady was just conveniently looking for her's too, even after she had found her's.

Yesterday, I found the course at North Lake Park in Denton. Then I went to Second Hand Sports on McKinney Street and bought 3 disc for $12. Back to the park to play three holes in the high wind. It's been a long time since I had thrown a Frisby, so I was very bad. I played 1, 15 and 2. I think my score was about 25 for three holes. (Should I be calling them holes?)

It gets easier as you get it more throws and work on your form and for me it took trying several different discs until I found ones that worked well with my throwing style. I am pretty sure that most tournaments play every hole as a par 3, and I think hole is the correct term.
