Frisbee golf has been around for a while. The first time I played was in 1975. Another name for frisbee golf is disk golf. This way of playing golf is becomming more popular.
It doesn't require alot of money to get started. All you need is a frisbee, or a disk. You can probably find a frisbee golf course in your area.
This type of golf is easy to learn, quite simple really. All you do is throw a frisbee toward the green. Hit the pin, which has a circular bar on top with chains that hang down to what looks like a basket. Tee-off as you do in links golf. Count the amount of tosses it takes to hit the pin basket. Least amount of tosses wins.
This sounds easier than what it actually is however. Usually there are obstacles that you must throw your frisbee around. Such as trees or buildings. It takes a little practice to make your frisbee do what you want it to. Having the ability to toss a frisbee accurately and with good distance is necessary to succeed at this way of playing golf.
An interesting thing about disc golf, which I recently learned. There are different discs to use depending on where you're at on the course. There is a disc to throw for distance and one for short throws. Just like you'd use different clubs on a links golf course. There is a disc made for many particular situations.
