Disc Golfing the Hard Courses

My two youngest took me to the local disc golf course- which is a very challenging course to say the least.

 I have not been out for any kind of decent exercise in a while. Needless to say, it was fantastic! I made the whole course except, I have to admit I didn't play the last hole...maybe it was the last two?? Ha.... well nonetheless, I powered on! Jess and Lance gave me amazing pointers to help me make the best of my throws. I used to throw a pretty mean baseball in my youth. I played on the town team in Monroe, Washington back in the day. But my disc throwing skills need a lot of practice!!!
 Both of my sons had amazing arms-I could not believe the distance they threw their discs. Not only that, to have them weave around the tall trees!! Pure talent!!!

My disc was the pink one. I'm not a "pink" girl...but it was easy to find. That is one of the one issues you have to deal with in terrain like this. You really need to have a spotter to watch where the wild ones go. There are many hills and brush that hide a disc. Many loose theirs, or they just go to really bad places to climb and get too...but for us.. we go for it~

Yes, they even get stuck in tree trunks, limbs and cliff-like sides....Keeps it interesting, right?! The point is to find it. Those discs are not cheap!
There are many different ways to throw your disc. Everyone has their own special "get r done" way.
Jessy has a faux bowling-throwing style that works quite well~

My son Lance has a fling and release type of throw-style. Kind of like a dancers technique to it. Whatever...it works famously. The disc soars~

 

Hole nine is the favorite. It has a ravine, fallen logs and a strategically placed basket. Sadly, Jess lost his disc on this one. But he did find one a couple holes before. So as I see it, it evened out!

( Here is hole 7 where I actually made the basket-it was not to far from there, but I will take it as a personal triumph!!)

 

I am very blessed to have my sons to teach me new sports. I am blessed to be in decent shape to enjoy my challenging hike. It was a wonderful sunny day. Fun had by all. We had the course all to ourselves. We could really get crazy and not worry about hitting anyone in front of us~

( it's happened before...haha. The guy was ok) all in stride)

 

Go out and get some exercise and do it with friends or family.

Peace out my readers~

Smile and have fun-push yourselves for fitness-the natural high in life!!
