At Simply Disc Golf, we’re all about stripping back the noise and getting to the heart of what makes disc golf an amazing sport. We believe in the joy of the simple throw, the camaraderie of a shared game, and the thrill of watching that perfect flight path. From our humble beginnings to now, we’ve been driven by a desire to share our love for disc golf with the world, in the most accessible and engaging way possible.
Our Story
Born from a love of the game and a thirst for comprehensive, authentic disc golf content, Simply Disc Golf was founded in the vibrant heart of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. It was on these legendary courses that three passionate players – Denis Flaschner, Kyle Labine, and Mandy Lee – first crossed paths.
The sparks of friendship were immediate, as were their shared frustration at the lack of reliable and accessible disc golf resources. From this common ground, an idea was born: a blog that would not only share their experiences, but serve as a guiding light for all disc golfers, regardless of their skill level.
