Frisbee Golf at Phuket Games Zone
The Phuket Games zone Frisbee golf course is the only Frisbee golf/disc golf course in Phuket (and probably the south of Thailand). Here you can have a relaxing game of skill and cunning for those who understand that the best sports are those you can play with a drink in your hand!
It’s easy to play, simply compete to see who can get their Frisbee/disc into the basket with the least number of throws. Phuket Games Zone provided the discs: a putter (much like a normal Frisbee) which flies slowly and short distances but is very accurate, a mid-range disc which is a little more aerodynamic than the putter, and a driver which has a much sharper edge and can fly long distances. You choose the right disc for the shot, just like you could choose a club in normal golf.
Phuket Games Zone has also devised some variations to play, such as:
Blindfolded Pairs: This is good fun for groups of 4 or more. For this, players need to get into pairs, giving yourself a fun team name, and the blindfolded player is guided by their seeing partner. For putting, the seeing partner rattles the chains of the basket to help them aim the Frisbee into the basket. You can decide the prize, for example the loser pay for everyone’s round!
The 5-Minute Frisbee Feat: A normal round of 9-Hole Frisbee golf will take between 30 – 45 minutes, but if you think that you are skilful and fast enough, then you could try the ‘5 Minute Frisbee Feat’. As the name suggests, you need to complete the course in under 5 minutes, and if you can then you’ll win 2 free drinks and an unlimited day pass to Phuket Games Zone. It’s doable, but you have to be fit to try. I ran out of steam half way through!
