First tee sign Carved out of the Northwoods, this challenging 25-to 27-hole course is fun for all skill levels. Your five-year-old can play and your parents. Even grandparents can play.

Simply put, disc golf is golf played with a Frisbee-like disc. Your target is the steel basket or pole hole. Count the number of throws it takes to get from the tee-pad to the basket and mark your score. Professional or advanced par is Par 3 on each hole. Family par is Par 4 on each hole.

Disc Golf is like taking a hike in the woods
and playing a game at the same time
.

The Sandy Point Ranch course is located in the forested property away from the lake and cabins. It is well marked with tee-signs and directional arrows, with two to three pin placements per hole, but only one set of baskets. Benches, trash cans and out-houses are located throughout the course. Golf discs, score cards and pencils are made available to all resident guests of the resort, and to recreational players who pay a $5 green fee.

Disc Golf is Growing

Just to give you some idea about how much and how fast disc golf has grown in the state of Wisconsin alone, Sandy Point was the sixth course to establish in the state. Our first nine holes (and soon 18, then 24, now 27) officially opened in 1994. Today, fifteen years later, there are 141 established courses in the state. It is not only a fun and easy recreational activity for the whole family, it's a professional sport.

A whole world of disc golf exists, including a professional organization called the Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA), which has over 40,000 members worldwide.

Disc golfer throwingThe Recreational Disc Golf Association (RDGA)is also a group dedicated to developing and encouraging the family and recreational aspects of the game. Resort owners, Mike and Michele, and even their daughters, Willow and Camille, are members of both associations.

In the state of Wisconsin alone there are some 141 courses. The disc golf community is a close-knit group – lot like a family. And newcomers are always welcome! Find out more about disc golf in the state at Terry Miller's Site, Lifetime Discsports.
