Most Commonly Broken Rules

I'll rephrase that statement. "There isn't anything else worse on a disc golf course that playing and seeing any type of litter laying all around." The more litter on the ground the less fun it is to play.

At "The Rock", Mace Man said that we should stroke anyone that we saw littering in the park. Now, I'm not sure if anyone got stroked for littering or not, but if they didn't, a lot of people got away with littering. I picked up over 50 alluminum cans over the weekend and probably a third of them were drinks consumed during the weekend. I kept picking up cans in the parking lot and along the trails where I had walked before with drink still in the can. That doesn't say a lot about our group. I think most everyone carries a disc golf bag. (except for maybe Kyle.) It is not a hard thing to empty the can, crush it and put it in your bag until you find a trash can. Or you can just look for me and I will gladly take it off your hands. It's fun to take all my cans in and get money for them knowing that most of them came from disc golf courses.

And that's just my oppinion.

Very few T.D.`s mention cigarette disposal,but the ones that do,always supply foil packets for disposal.I only have a problem with the anti-smoking hypocrisy that exists,and I find that my smoking rights are easy to defend against mindless rhetoric.

Litter is litter those who throw their butts on the ground where ever they are,are the same ones that will carry a full case of beer but can't carry a Damn empty to the next trash can,which i might add is usally the next holes tee pad.

Cig butts are BY FAR the largest percentage of trash on my home course.

My husband and I picked up a cartons worth (that's 200 butts my friends) around the tee pads. It only took about 12 holes to do it.

Friz, you can smoke all you want, I don't care. Just pick up your butts. Oh and that Mountain Dew bottle, too.

Since I am a tree-hugger,here is a Biodegrade timetable.

Plastic bottles Forever
Glass bottles 1 million years
Six-pack holder rings 450 years
Aluminum cans 80-100 years
Tin cans 50-100 years
Nylon fabric 30-40-years
Leather shoes 25-40-years
Paper milk cartons 5 years
Cigarette butts 1-12 years

Now I recommend that everyone should go fill up their car and litter the air we breath.

If that's all it takes, I'll call RJReynolods and have them send me a 1,000. Maybe us smokers can get sponsored by the companies we support, hell it's the least they can do.

Not all smokers leave their butts on the course, well, at least not the ones we smoke.
