Disc Golf

Playing golf with flying discs — throwing a driver, mid-range, and putter at chained metal baskets across a wooded park course, managing wind, terrain, and the disc's own aerodynamics. Every disc is stamped with four flight numbers (speed, glide, turn, fade) that predict how it will carve through the air.
