Disc
Golf Course Equipment: Targets
Equipment:
One
of the most attractive aspects of disc golf is its relative low cost
and minimal impact on an existing park. Tees and targets define
each hole. Signs inform players of the course layout. Without them,
players may become lost. Trash cans and benches will make your course
more appealing and user friendly. The following pages introduce the
different pieces of equipment that will be the foundations of any
disc golf course.
Targets
The most obviously unique part of a disc golf course is the targets.
In the early days of disc golf, trees, light poles, and trash
cans were designated as targets. In 1975 the Pole Hole™ was
invented, issuing in the era of disc golf as more than a passtime,
it had become a sport. The DISCatcher® PRO represents the
state of the art in disc golf target technology.
An enjoyable, satisfying, and fun disc golf experience can only
result from a fair and safe course.
