    I’ve seen a disc golf course be integrated into a local park, without any damage to nature. If only more sports could be this eco-friendly.

      My local course is on the foot of a mountain, with the course utilizing the trees and natural open areas to make nice lines as well as some mountain sides and hills. Very few trees were chopped in the process, and it’s not really an area suitable for housing or industries. However, I know that disc golf has quite a different course style at more professional levels. A lot of the courses on pro tours are basically golf courses integrated with disc golf, which doesn’t really help with killing off ball-and-club golf.
