I’m very curious about the direction disc golf has taken.

Disc Golf is still trying to monetize itself.

On one hand it’s what has always funded the sports growth.

Longing to be the next skateboard industry.

Most of the pro players are now focused on social media. Many of them are better at this than playing. A lot of the “influencers” make more than the touring players. That money is less stressful.

Every brand is rolling out their “gimmick” now.  Grooves and thumb tracks on the top seems to be the current play.

I think it’s says a lot about the players and manufacturers that this is what they are banking on now.

There isn’t really a focus on making products that make people better players. Just gimmicks we can show off to our buddies. A lot of other companies are doing 2-part injection molding too.

I want disc golf to prove me wrong here.

I don’t know if wants to be more than a toy industry though.

Don’t have to agree with me.

Of course I still love what I do.

Let’s prove em wrong.
