How much exercise do you need to play disc golf?

Disc golf is not a sport that requires a ridiculous amount of physical exertion per round. You will walk about a mile total, but you don’t have to do a whole lot else besides throwing if you don’t want to. I still recommend adding in some weightlifting, or at least bodyweight, exercises to your weekly routine.

Do you need a bag for disc golf?

Out on the disc golf course, you’re going to need some kind of bag to hold your discs while you play. Having a bag is essential. But do you have to buy one? No, not really. My friend Hunter and I both survived without a bag for over a year of playing. He used an old college bookbag and I used an NFL backsack that was able to hold about 6 discs.

Which disc golf discs should you throw first?

Drive Discs — Drivers are perfect discs to toss your initial shot. They can cover a lot of ground and it will almost always be your longest throw on the hole! They can also be very fast to help you expand your reach. Mid-Range Discs — Mid-range discs are better for your second, third, and fourth shots because you can throw with more finesse.
