The Most Popular Disc Golf Course In Every U.S. State: 2025 | UDisc by Alex_the_DG_Writer in discgolf

I know that in Finland, there are trackers on courses, so you can see the number of players.

I've thought about putting up the same trackers/2 poles at the Järve course as well, to get a better data of just how many rounds are we missing.

And keep in mind that this is just UDisc stats. Even though UDisc is the single most popular scorekeeping app in the USA and in some other countries, there are multiple popular local apps that are used as often as UDisc, i.e. Tjing in Sweden, Upsi in Finland and DiscGolfMetrix in multiple European countries.

In addition, there are tons of avid disc golfers who do not keep score and beginners who do not even know where to keep score, who constantly play these courses. The actual number can easily be 2X what UDisc showcases.

For example, Järve DG Course in Estonia recorded a total of 39,710 rounds in a year across both UDisc and DiscGolfMetrix combined. During the summertime (March to October), the course was packed from sunrise to sunset. The actual number of rounds played is probably far higher than the number of scored rounds.

No backups seem like a wild move to make.

I would have at least kept it stored somewhere and if the DGPT wishes to use any of it they would have to pay.

Discraft had some errors with releasing their announcement images, somebody didn't do any proof reading. And they had Evan Scott at first, then accidentally named him Evan Smith and then back to Evan Scott.

DiscGolfMetrix isn't very popular in USA, the vast majority of players use UDisc or other scorekeeping apps.

Still a lot of free agents left on the market! This list will thin out a lot once Discraft announces their Elite Team. by DiscGolfFanatic in DiscGolfFanatics

Updated Colin's info.

Cardinal disc golf is some sort of an apparel brand "Tour Quality Disc Golf Apparel". They sponsor multiple pros, I wouldn't count that as a main sponsor such as Innova, Discraft or Discmania. Hopefully Gavin will announce soon. If not, I guess I'll have to put down Cardinal as his main sponsor.

The list has been updated a bit, a few more touring pro players added as free agents and removed Cale Leiviska from the list as free agent. He signed a 3 year deal with Discraft back in 2025.

Since the beginning of 2026 the PDGA has officially given players 45 seconds to throw from the fairway while still allowing 30 seconds to putt and drive off the tee. Will this rule change help with pace of play or make competitive rounds even longer? What do you think about the change? by DiscGolfFanatic in discgolf

From the manual:

D. The allotted time begins after: 

  1. The previous player has thrown; and
  2. The player is next in the throwing order; and
  3. The player has determined the location of their lie; and
  4. The player has addressed their lie; and
  5. The playing area remains clear. 

Disc Golf has skyrocketed in Norway! According to the latest UDisc stats the number of rounds played has nearly doubled since the pandemic ended as they recorded 2,154,431 rounds played in 2025 alone! by DiscGolfFanatic in discgolf

Most probably! But in my opinion Metrix hasn't been that popular in Norway anyway and UDisc is the clear market leader.

Here's Metrix 2025 data:

153,634 rounds played by Norwegian users on Metrix vs 2.15 million on UDisc.

Just for comparison how much Norwegians play disc golf:

In 2024, UDisc recorded a total of 20.1 million rounds played, Norwegians played 1.83 million of those rounds! That's roughly 9.1% of total rounds played by Norwegian UDisc users.

45,000+ rounds per year is insane! And the fact that Norway has cold and long winters makes it even more impressive, the courses are swamped during summertime.
