Getting Started

Over 21 million rounds of disc golf were recorded in 2025, and participation has grown by more than 80% since 2020. Disc golf is an affordable, healthy recreation that brings communities together and creates lasting value for parks.

Disc golf courses can be designed for city parks, schools, church camps, universities, state parks, private properties, and more. Every property is unique, and we evaluate each site to maximize its potential.

The amount of land depends on the number of holes and the desired level of play. In general, an average of 1 acre per hole is a great start.
