Writing an article about military disc golfers and am looking for input from military members & veterans. If this applies to you, it'd help me out if you could answer a few questions:
1. What branch are/were you in? How long did you serve?
2. How long have you been playing disc golf?
3. Did you start playing when you were in? If not, did you start before or after you joined?
4. Were there any bases where you were stationed that had a disc golf course? If so, where? Are/were they any good?
5. Did you introduce any players to the game while you were serving? If so, about how many? Do any still play?
6. How popular did you find disc golf to be among those you served with, if applicable?
7. Did you ever try to start a disc golf club, league or course at any of the places you were stationed? If so, did you ever approach your local MWR about it?
8. In your opinion, does the PDGA do enough to promote disc golf within the military? If so, what are they doing right? If not, what could they do better?
9. What bases have you served at do you think could benefit from, have the resources to support, and the personnel to maintain a legitimate disc golf course? ("Legitimate" meaning something better than just an open field with baskets installed sporadically.)
10. Does disc golf have a positive, negative, or neutral reputation among military personnel? Why?
