Disc Golf Searcy's disc golf course is located in the Searcy Sports Complex on Queensway. Disc golf is a lot like traditional golf, except players use specially made plastic flying discs instead of balls and clubs, and throw them for 'par' at an above ground target instead of a hole in the ground. There are different types of discs used for different purposes, much like normal golfers use different clubs. The object of the game is to throw a golf disc into the target, typically a "Pole Hole" basket (a steel basket over which chains hang), in the fewest number of throws. The player begins by 'driving' from a designated tee area and continues toward the target, throwing each consecutive shot from the spot where the previous throw has landed. Finally, a successful 'putt' sends the disc into the target. The most satisfying sound a disc golfer can hear is the 'ching!' of a disc crashing the chains before dropping into the basket.
