Driftsun Typhoon Disc Golf Basket This one is not an Innova target but it is one of the most popular on Amazon. It is a high quality basket you'll want to consider to buy to if you want to bring your practice to a new level. It's excellent for practice due to its DGA regulation size. If you want practice, make it a meaningful and a productive one. It's also portable, and makes it a good choice for semi-permanent practice. It is not really easily moveable due to its weight, but that secures it stands still on uneven grounds and that doesn't get affected by wind. Its chains are made of galvanized steel. It is a durable mid-budget basket. It is suitable for permanent installation but doesn't have to be. It's up to you. Amazon link: goo.gl/8HDxAw…
The most important memory of Disc Golf for myself is the first time I had experienced a round with my brother Dylan. Growing up as a child I had always admired Dylan and looked up to him as a role model. Any idea or activity that had popped into his would usually be pushed upon me for trial. He always seemed to introduce me to ravishing new music and movies but this time was different. The game was Disc Golf and when it was mentioned, my body language portrayed the excited emotions I was feeling…

What is disc golf? It is the game that combines Frisbee and golf into one game. You throw a Frisbee disc down a hole and make it into a basket in as least amount of shots as possible, just as similar as you would play golf. In disc golf the courses are measured in feet rather than yards as what golf is measured in. It may not be a very well known sport but you would be surprised how many people play the game. It has been announced that the sport will make its first appearance in the 2016 Olympic…
Disc golf is a sport I knew very little about and through participating in it I have learned to enjoy a new pass time. It had never occurred to me to try this particular activity before. I had seen the baskets in parks and never knew what they were. In fact I didn’t even know disk golf was a sport until last summer. It hadn’t occurred to me to partake in this strange sport but when the opportunity arose I eagerly took it. Choosing to participate in a new activity is enjoyable for me. Learning…

Last year, I went to my first disc golf tournament ever at White Clay State Park in Newark, Delaware. I frantically practiced for about three weeks before. I started to work on different throws that would help me on some of the harder holes. There are many different throwing techniques, but I throw fore hand, thumbers, and backhand. I learned a different stance and grip for each. At the tournament, I came upon a hole that I needed to use all three throwing styles in order to get a reasonable…

Some people say that they golf to relax. I however cannot understand that statement. Personally I would rather just throw my first three balls directly into the river and drop my fourth two hundred feet from the green. And I’d rather build castles in the sand trap rather than try to pitch a ball out of it. But somehow in the seventh grade I found myself on the junior high golf team. Although I didn’t know it when I wrote my name on the sign-up sheet, golf would teach me the most important lesson…
Equipment The “Rules of Golf” supply extensive detail on the specifications allowed when manufacturing a golf club. As with most of the rules these ones are geared towards tournament players. Recreational golfers should be allowed to use whichever clubs they wish to use. If a club that is illegal in a tournament will give an extra few yards to an average golfer it can dramatically increase the pace at which that golfer plays. Hitting the ball farther not only makes it quicker to get from tee to…
