An introduction to
Disc Golf
The Blue Heron Disc Golf Course provides a fun and
relaxing outdoor activity for people of all ages. Disc
golf is a game that encourages people to get out and
be active in nature. It provides a free activity the whole
family can enjoy outside. Patrons can take advantage of
a fun-filled family outing, a friendly match or a personal
trek through this 18-hole facility in the south end of the
East Park.
What is
Disc Golf?
Disc golf is played
by throwing a
plastic Frisbee-like
disc at a target
called a “basket.”
The game is played
much like ball
golf, except that
flying discs are
used instead of
clubs and a ball.
The discs are like
Frisbees® but are
designed to travel farther and faster because of their weight
and aerodynamic design.
A disc golf course consists primarily of 5-foot-tall basket-like
structures or “holes” and tee pads that designate the tee-off
area. Players throw their disc from the tee pad toward the
basket and a#empt to place their disc in the basket in the
least amount of throws. Each throw counts as one “stroke.”
The player with the
least amount
of strokes in one
round wins! Unlike
ball golf which is
played on highly
manicured greens
and typically
requires formalized
tee times, disc
golf provides a
more relaxed
atmosphere,
available
for strolling pick-up games in natural areas with
serene vistas.
Learn more about disc golf at metroparks.org/discgolf.
Best short game: Park in the lot behind Hole 15 and
play holes 15-18 for a fun, short game. With practice, you
might just deuce all four in a row.
Most challenging holes: Typically, the most
challenging holes on the course are the two over 400
feet–Holes 1 and 10. Try to hit them in just two shots.
They can be birdied!
