Tom From time to time, we see interesting things during our travels around the world. This time, we got to see a new game called Disc Golf. Disc Golf (also known to some as Frisbee Golf) is a new game that combines the game of frisbee with golf! Essentially, you’ll have to throw the frisbee towards one of these baskets
in the fewest number of throws. Just like golf, you’ll “tee off” from a spot and aim to reach the basket in as few throws (or strokes in golf) as possible. The distance of a typical golf course is much shorter than a typical golf course. This picture describes approximately how big a typical disc golf course is…
Like golf, there are different discs for achieving different distances. In general, a lighter disc gives you more distance but poorer control while a heavier disc gives you better control while achieving a shorter distance. Yup, it also means that a “putter disc” is usually the heaviest disc used.
To sum it all up, we have created a video to describe what Disc Golf (or Frisbee Golf) is all about…Enjoy!

Given the love of Ultimate Frisbee in Singapore, Disc Golf could possibly gain traction in Singapore as well!
Hi,
just seeing this and wanted to let you know we do have disc golf in Singapore. We’ve been playing since 2006 with portable Innova Traveler targets that we take around to various open land sites. We’re working on getting Nparks approval for a permanent Course in West Coast Park, where we regularly set up the portables. We’ve had three PDGA sanctioned events: 2019 Singapore Sling, 2019 SGDGC and 2020 Singapore Sling. If you’re still in Singapore we’d love to meet you!
It’s so cool that we actually have disc golf in Singapore! Will leave your comments here and hopefully more people in Singapore will pick up the sport as well! Keep it up Lance!
