Try a new kind of fun on the Par 3 courseā¦Disc Golf!
Players use specially made plastic flying discs instead of balls and clubs. The discs are thrown for “par” at an above-ground target instead of a hole in the ground. There are different types of discs used for different purposes, much like ball golfers use different clubs.
The object is to throw a “golf disc” into the target, a steel basket over which chains hang, in the fewest number of throws. The player starts at a designated tee area moving toward the target with each shot (throw), each shot is made from the spot where the previous throw has landed. Finally, a successful ”putt” sends the disc into the target. The most satisfying sound a disc golfer can hear is the “ching!” of a disc crashing through the chains before dropping into the basket.
The cost for adults is only $14 for a 9-hole round and $20 for 18 holes. Junior rates are $7 for 9 holes and $11 for 18. A set of two discs can be rented for $3. This means players can enjoy disc golf without having to bring discs of their own.
