So let's say that we all "grow the sport" (whatever that really means) to the fullest extent. Disc golf is now a major pastime played by millions of Americans and millions more worldwide. There is a legitimate pro tour where our best players don't have construction jobs. Are all of us playing right now happy with that world?
With growth comes challenges. I live in MN where there is a healthy supply of disc golf courses. Already it is challenging to fit in a round during peak hours. With more players comes more pressure on courses, and there will come a point where we will need to charge players and set tee times just like ball golf.
Do I really want to pay $30 for a tediously paced 3 hour round of disc golf? Do you? Is there an alternative that avoids this problem?
