Do you disc golf, or frolf?

I am so confused.
In the past three days, I think I've seen about 50 disc golf related things, and in the past, I didn't even know this was real.
Just strange!

It's very popular among the guys who have grown up at our church camp here in Mississippi where there's a great course, as well as being very popular among the college crowds. I love it, but don't play very much. There are several courses throughout Mississippi.
Yeah. I started a few years ago. Only when I happened to drive by my town's course and wondered what those strange baskets were.
I only use a mid-range disc because it is all I need for the 2 courses I play, but I would be open to playing with longer range / putter discs.

Alright, i'll take you on, me with my titanium driver, and you with your frisbee putter
Anyone who hasn't played the DeLaveaga Disc Golf course is missing out.
I play both disc and ball golf. Enjoy them both. One's just a hell of a lot cheaper than the other! But then again, you don't see a lot of business deals being made over disc golf...

A long time ago, when I was 10, i was playing "frolf" and it required me to stand on a bench. Well, I fell off the bench and landed on my arm...
I think, to date, I am the only ID10T who broke a bone playing frolf...

I've only played once, but it was a lot of fun, and I almost beat a couple of friends who played all the time. It is something that I wouldn't mind getting more into. Maybe I just need to go out and buy a set of beginner's discs.
This course is AMAZING! I've been playing Disc Golf since 1998 and on my good days I'm a pretty decent player... I get pretty good distance on my drives.. or so I thought... until I played DeLaveaga about a year ago. I finished the course only 8 over after 24 holes which I will admit was more luck than management.
The "Top of the world" hole is by far the coolest I've ever played. It sits atop a hill that is probably around 100' or so up and you shoot down to a hole that is under a tree around 300' away. Very difficult hole but it's just gorgeous.
I recommend anyone who is in the Santa Cruz area to check out this course.
I watched someone nail that hole in a single shot once... I about pooped myself.
So did you make it off the course with all your discs?
Been playing for almost 20 years. Quite a few decent courses around Baltimore.
Of course, after all this time, I still suck.

Used to play now and again, my childhood city had 4 or 5 courses in parks near my home. Never had a real disk, we just used frisbees.
Really can't compare it to regular golf, but it was a good time and would play it again if someone asked. Plus you can't beat free.

Sounds awesome, is this a free public course? I've only known free courses in public parks, is there pay to play disk golf?
It is indeed free, although due to it's immense popularity (I've met people from several European countries who came here just to play it) and challenging nature, it is often in use for tournaments. During tournament play it can be frustratingly off limits.
And bring lots of discs. Poison oak abounds all around the course. I've got a buddy who is immune to the stuff who always winds up with more discs than he came with -- even on a bad day.
and your point is? everyone is so mellow and nice. did you know that theres 18 shots in whiskey bottle, one for each round of ball golf. i hate regular golfs nicey nice attitude.
I play it all the time as well as disk golf. I just said it because everyone that smokes that I know plays diskgolf haha.
In real golf it is also fun to hit up on the slow groups in front of you.
I've played it once or twice, and it was a lot of fun, but I never got interested enough to buy my own gear (although there is a nice course near my house).
What do you think "frolf" is short for?
