The stay at home orders and closure of nearly all recreational facilities / events was surely a blessing in disguise as I dove head first into this new hobby. I have been playing as often as possible, watching tons of professional coverage, and just generally soaking up everything disc golf related. With this backstory in mind, I have really been wanting to branch out and play new courses (as Vancouver only has a few close by courses and I have played them all 30 times each at this poi ..read more
