Disc Golf

One day my wife and I were out riding around in Brentwood, and we passed by this field that looked to be in the vicinity of Crockett Park. We noticed there were guys throwing what appeared to be discs at a metal basket with chains dangling in order to help trap the discs as they hit the basket. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was a disc golf course!

I was pretty excited. I grew up playing a lot of "Frisbee golf", but since living in Tennessee I didn't know of any courses that were close by to where I lived. So, you can imagine my surprise to stumble upon this little course.

My wife and I were at the sports store on Saturday morning and we noticed that they had some discs for sale. So, we bought some and made plans to play. We invited our neighbors to come along with with us and as we pushed our kids around in the course in their strollers, we had a great time.

Disc golf is one of those hobbies that couples can do together. You get to exercise, have conversation, it's free, and no one gets frustrated by the way the other person plays. Now that I know a course is near by, it is definitely going to be a new hobby. I love this game!
