It's disc golf season!

[dougo]

We've been having some great weather this week here in New England, and for a change it's looking like it will last through the weekend. Which means I'm starting to think about playing disc golf again! If you're in the area and interested in joining me this or some other weekend (or a weekday afternoon—yes, I'm still "on sabbatical"), let me know and I'll add you to my email invitation list.

It's pretty much like regular golf: the object is to throw the disc into the basket. If you don't make it with the first throw (which you usually don't, since it's 200-400 feet away from the tee) then you throw it again from wherever it landed. Your score is the total number of throws; lowest score wins.

Throwing a disc is a lot easier to learn than swinging a golf club, though, plus discs are a lot cheaper. And it's a nice excuse to take a walk in the park.

Shall I add you to my list? Shoud I use your LJ email address, or some other one? (Mail me privately if you don't want to post it, at dougorleans@gmail.com.)
