I was on the ball golf team in high school and still like that sport.
But it is nowhere near as fun and reasonably challenging as disc golf. I like the direct connection with the object you are trying to get in rather than the indirect connection ball golf offers with club to ball.
I started disc golfing back in '87 and while it always has the hippy aspect going on, all the top pros I'm familiar with are as much of jocks as I've seen in other sports. Plus the camaraderie within the sport is awesome and second to none.
As far as vaping on the course(s), I do it about half the time. I have pull cart and my batts fit nicely in the pockets that come with that. I am also a dual user, and discing is one of the few times per week where I'll have 3 smokes in a day. Even while I disc almost every other day, I'm still at less than a pack a week, and so it is easily justifiable to do both, and enjoy both.
The amount of vapers is growing on courses I play at. A year ago, I saw maybe 5 people the whole season that vaped. Now I'll see that many each week at leagues.
Interestingly, the very first time I ever tried an eCig was when I was discing (in winter, in Wisconsin) and guy who was stranger to me had disposable kind. We ended up playing about 12 holes together. He bummed smokes from me and offered me to try his eCig. I tried a few puffs, liked it and knew from that moment that I at least wanted my own disposable to see how much I really might use it / enjoy it.
Looking to go out in about 2 hours to shoot a round, or two.
Keep banging chains!
