Been playing some again recently. Anyone else play?
Anyone disc golf?
- Thread starter Coral reefer
- Start date
I played the Golden Gate Park course once for my BIL's bachelor party just before lockdowns. I'd be up for a BAR disc golf round (with maybe lunch/dinner and drinks before or after).

Where’s you go? I used to play a lot. Went to UCSB. Played from 1999-2007 college and club.

Mostly yes, have played the chabot park course in Castro valley as well.

We must know some people in common I think. I’m eligible this year for grand masters, looking to start playing again soon.

I‘ve never played disc golf but always loved chucking a regular 175g disc.
I miss the weekend afternoons up at hippie hill throwing the frisbee around.
The golf course in Berkeley is in a most undesirable location unfortunately

It's a real shame... and the lake is a total disc magnet on some of the holes.

I’d be into throwing some frisbee at a local park up here in the hills if anyone is interested

Used to play frizbee golf a bit long ago. Lot of fun.
Seems like nobody wants to play frisbee these days though. Hard to find big open spaces without tons of people.
My favorite was playing simple frisbee in the ocean waves though. It added a fun extra dimension of risk.
Fun fact: I played with some of the prototypes of the Aerobie with Alan Adler, the inventor. He was a professor at the time at my school.

Addicted, play almost everyday. Hit me up if you're looking to get a round in.
I play Aquatic Park in Berkeley about once a week or so. The city has cleaned up the area, but the wind is still extremely challenging.

Someone has feelings about nomenclature
… To be fair, Frisbee is a brand, Disc Craft is the brand of disc currently used by college ultimate players (even though we often call it Ultimate Frisbee) and Disc Golf is the game. And this was my big take away from going to college.

When it started, it was officially called "Frisbee golf" and "Frisbee football"
Times change, names change. Now it is officially disc to avoid the brand name.
But it is correct to say I really did play "Frisbee golf"
But if I were to do it now of course, I would be playing disc golf.
