I was introduced to this sport in college and while I was of course terrible at it at first, I got better. The thing that appealed to me the most about it was that it was free. I'm sure there are courses out there where you have to pay but I have been to a couple dozen of them and I've never had to pay. I even introduced my real golf-loving father and he immediately took to it. It's just a great sport that anyone can play. There's no need for hundreds of dollars worth of gear either. You can realistically play a course with nothing other than a mid-range although the long holes would mess you up a bit

I totally agree with everything you said there. It's a great sport. It looks like I won't be able to get out again in the next couple of weeks, but I am taking my discs on a trip to Colorado, so I hope to play a bit out there.
with all the hippies that exist in Colo, I think you will find a lot of courses! Oh and one other thing that impressed me about the disc golf community is that you write your name and phone number on the bottom of a disk and if it gets lost in the trees and falls down say, a month from now, people find it and actually return it to you.
Yes, the community is usually pretty good about that. I just lost one in a pond the other day and I am waiting to get the call from someone who fishes it out. Sometimes they just run off with it, but usually they call or text.
