Plans are moving forward to add a frisbee golf course to Jaycee Park in the City of Artesia. Frisbee golf has been growing in popularity since the mid 1970s. The sport provides health benefits as disc golfers can walk close to three miles or an average of about 5,613 steps per 18-hole round, according to Disczoo.com. Once you purchase the disc golf equipment, the sport is very affordable. Many cities across the country have free disc golf courses so you won’t need to pay high membership or tee fees. The equipment includes an array of long-range, midrange and short-range discs, including putters and drivers. The frisbee golf course is going to be a great additional the recreational possibilities in Artesia!
