FORE!

We are thrilled to be sporting a brand new 9 hole Frisbee golf course at Mountain Jam this year. It's free to play and will take players up into the gorgeous mountain terrain. Pro Frisbee Players will be on hand for cool free style demos and awesome clinics!

Mountain Jam's
Frisbee Golf Course
Course designed by Bill Dubilier

The sport of Frisbee Golf (also known as Disc Golf) evolved as an offshoot of the many games spawned by the Frisbee craze. The game started with people using Frisbees and aiming at targets made up of trees, trash cans, light poles, pipes, and whatever else was handy.

Disc golf is similar to regular golf; however, instead of using golf clubs and b
alls aiming for a hole, Disc Golf players use golf discs and aim for a Disc Pole Hole, a pole extending up from the ground with chains and a basket where the disc lands. The object of the game is to complete each hole in the fewest number of throws, starting from a tee area and finishing at the Disc Pole Hole. Generally, a course is 9 Disc Pole Holes long. Players start at “hole” one and complete the course in order, playing through to the last hole. The player with lowest total cumulative score wins.
