Owner of Skip Shot Disc Sports Ethan Knodel has played the versatile sport for six years, starting with a three disc starter set and growing his collection to 23. 

“It’s like outdoor therapy, being outside and playing a super chill game of disc golf. It’s quite relaxing,” says Knodel. “You only need one disc to start, and it can be as competitive as you want it to be.”

Whether sunshine or grey skies, snow or rain, disc golf invites people to embrace the outdoors all year long. And disc golf league organizer Jared Zeigenhagel says Medicine Hat is an easy place to merge disc golf into because of the many beautiful parks in the city.

A game that can be played at the players own pace, no appointment is needed to start a game in the parks. Disc golf sets can be found online at Skip Shot Disc Sports, or in-store at Gravity Sports, Sport Connection, Games and Galore in Medicine Hat Mall, and at the Visitor Information Centre (330 Gehring Road SW).
