Edge Disc Golf

Edge Disc Golf is a fast growing outdoor activity that can be enjoyed by everyone. 

According to the Disc Golf Association (DGA), disc golf is one of the best lifetime fitness sports. It is easy to learn, a healthy activity and accessible to people of all ages and fitness levels. If you can throw a Frisbee™ and you like to have fun, you can play disc golf.

Similar to golf, the object of disc golf is to complete each hole in as few throws--or strokes--as possible. 

Instead of using golf clubs and a golf ball, disc golfers use a flying golf disc to traverse the hole.  Each hole starts with a teeing area and is completed once the disc lands in the "hole", which is a disc-catching target.  While disc golf can be played with just one golf disc, the discs are designed to fly with different characteristics.  Different discs can be used to hook and curve around obstacles, roll on the ground, or fly over trees.
