I went out and played disc golf today for the first time in a few months. It was fun. Granted, it was more fun when I was playing with a few friends down in Wichita, but what are you going to do? This is the second disc golf course that I have played since moving up to Minnesota. One thing that I have noticed about both courses is that they cover open fields as well as trees. In Wichita, the trees were mainly just amongst the open fields, few and far between. Here, however, is different because there are actually trees in which a course can be worked around. Trees are infuriating when playing. Discs have a tendency to find the trees. Whatever. Stupid nature. Anyway, here are a few pictures I took today. Just because.
Basket seven was five hundred and sixty feet from the tee. I thought that was horrible until...
Basket eight one upped basket seven by fifteen feet. These two baskets put a hurting on my elbow. I suppose if I threw more this would not be an issue.
This is the first mandatory right (or left) I have seen since playing down in Wichita that had three baskets right by the road.
Basket number ten I believe. Nice and open...with the exception of all the damn trees that were right down the middle. Incidentally, this is where my discs went.
There was plenty of this at all the tees. Not exactly classy, but I think I would rather see this as opposed to trash on the ground or graffiti on the actual trees which is a common problem at disc golf courses.
Basket number twelve. Two huge trees right in front of the tee. Not cool man. Not cool.
Overall, it was a nice and relaxing afternoon. I just listened to music and threw. An afternoon out in the fresh air does a person good. Especially when it is not too hot.
