Disc golf, formerly known as frisbee golf, is a flying disc sport in which players throw a disc at a target; it is played using rules similar to golf.
Anne Springs Close Greenway in Fort Mill recently installed a Disc Golf Course which can be accessed through their Adventure Road Entrance. The first “hole” is just off the first parking lot.

The sport is usually played on a course with 9 or 18 holes (baskets). Players complete a hole by throwing a disc from a tee pad or area toward a target, known as a basket, throwing again from where the previous throw landed, until the basket is reached.
The Greenway’s Disc Golf Course consists of 9 “holes” which wind around through the woods near Lake Crandall. Coleman and I didn’t bring a disc with ( discs are not provided ). I’m not sure that he’s ready to land a disc in the baskets yet. He still needs to learn how to throw one first.

Basket/Hole 3
Usually, the number of throws a player uses to reach each basket is tallied (often in relation to par), and players seek to complete each hole in the lowest number of total throws. Par is the number of strokes an expert player is expected to make for a given hole or a group of holes (usually 9 or 18).
Have you ever played Disc/Frisbee Golf? I actually have never played Disc Golf even though in my youth I has thrown a Frisbee a time or two. Maybe one day I’ll give it a try. I’m sure the Disc Golf Course at the Greenway will get much use given time. It was only I stay couple of months ago so people need time to become aware of its existence.
