Take the lift to the course on the mountain. Players cover
a nine-hole course trying to make the fewest number of throws
with discs of varying weights and sizes.
Much like the way a set of golf clubs is used, one of the
four discs is selected
for each "shot," depending on the distance and wind.
Recommended
for
groups of up to four.
