Synopsis

5 essays on efforts to promote and develop disc golf as a unique lifestyle sport. The Disc golf phenomenon has been evolving for nearly 40 yrs now, and it's time that the rag-tag legions of recognized disc golf enthusiasts take the reins. A roots movement of activists sharing experience and vision will develop the branch structure necessary to weather the influence of mainstream media when they discover that disc golf may mean dollar signs. From Carson City Nevada to the Irs to the Cal Poly Pomona Space Activators! to Sci-Fi fantasies to Guradians of The Trees, these essays span the 5 years I went back to school for landscape architecture. The capstone of my interest in disc golf as regenerative recreation was my thesis: Disc Golf Course Design: Inscribing Lifestyle. These academic writings trace the activism of one disc golfer's pursuit of better design. What do you see in disc golf's future? The olive grove of Academos awaits! Fling away.
