The leading Disc Golf baskets and equipment and the founding company of disc golf.
Since 1975 our Disc Pole Holes™ have met the needs of the top professionals and top recreational disc golf players. We offer our customers over 30 years of expertise and design refinements that began with the sport's first Disc Golf basket and continue today with the sport's most popular baskets, DGA Mach Series Disc Pole Holes. Our Mach Series of Baskets are found all over the world. Over 3/4 of U.S. Disc Golf courses have chosen DGA® Disc Pole Holes™. Our patented designs include the sliding link, inner chains, portable base, chain linkage and ring attachments as well as our trademarked Trapper™ basket.
The roots of the sport begin with "Steady" Ed Headrick, the founder of DGA and the driving force responsible for the modern day era of disc sports. Ed Headrick coined and trademarked the term "Disc Golf" when formalizing the sport and invented the Disc Pole Hole™, the first disc golf target to incorporate chains and a basket on a pole.
What is Disc Golf?
Disc Golf is One of Today's Fastest Growing Sports! Played similarly to ball golf but with discs and Disc Pole Hole™ baskets instead of golf clubs, balls and holes.
The sport of 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 random 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 balls aiming for a hole, Disc Golf players use 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 or 18 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.
Disc Golf differs from regular Golf in important ways. Disc golf courses can use a wide variety of terrain. Often times, land not suitable for other park activities or development is perfect terrain for a disc golf course. There is no need for irrigation for upkeep. Disc golf is one of the best lifetime fitness sports. It is easy to learn, a healthy activity, and accessible to people of all ages and fitness levels. If you can throw a Frisbee® and you like to have fun, you can play disc golf.
