A Good Walk Defined

Nice article - http://www.pdga.com/node/62527 - reporting on a recent study of just how many steps one takes during a round of disc golf. Should be spread around!

Good article.
I think they should also study disc golf and carple tunnel. My pain has gone away since I started playing.

The toboggan is where this cardiovascular study should be performed!

Thanks for the fuel to help us with info towards not loosing our dgc.The recent county commish,along with parks and rec have decided to spend the 1.2million set aside for an additional 9 holes,and other ammentities that was for the regional parks expansion.They have voted to put in another baseball field for the college travel league.We did not invision them taking away our established dg course.The first 7 holes will be torn out!!
The college series runs only for the month of March,yet there are 5 fields already built.Four are little league and the 5th is semi-pro adult league.The distance of that field to fence is 315,that's at least Wriggleys field size!!
The upkeep of all fields for maintenance has been brought to everyone's attention.This dgc has been in the ground since late '90's. Sorry for the soap box rant.."an they put up a parking lot.."

Next time you go play a round, tell the wife you are going for a long walk.

[Adam Sinkus]

you also need to tell her that there might be some disc golf holes that get in the way and well you should probably take your bag as well

[Disc Player Sports]

You mean the disc golf "bag.'

[Adam Sinkus]

of course not your wife

[Trae-Bear]

i try not to but she just follows me....lol...jk

[get your discs and godiscn]

and from what I read, it takes about 2000-2250 steps to walk a mile.

[Senior]

That means that since I started playing on a regular basis back in 1996, I have made about 13 million or more steps playing disc golf.... Wow! Which is about 6500 miles, or almost all the way around the world!
