The clocks have changed, but you still get off work itching to go rip a few drives. You’re relying on the sound of the chains and the feeling of a hard-earned birdie to wash away a stressful day. But when you get outside, the last beams of daylight are just dropping beneath the treeline. Are those cherished, post-work rounds going to have to wait to resume until the Spring? Not if we at Innova have anything to say about it! 

Glow disc golf can be a fun and different way to get in that much needed round without being constrained by light as the days get shorter. Not only is glow disc golf a great way to keep playing through the late fall and winter, it is an exciting twist that can make an entirely new experience out of a course that you have played countless times. It makes a great option for a small group of friends looking for a casual round and is the perfect way to extend your local league nights to later in the season. 

What is Glow Disc Golf?

Simply put, glow disc golf has all the same rules as traditional disc golf, but is played at night. Players use glow discs or regular discs with a light source attached and aim at an illuminated basket.

Will I Really Be Able to Find My Discs?

If done correctly, discs can be easier to find at night than they are during the day. A brightly glowing disc on an otherwise dark backdrop is easy to follow in flight and sticks out clearly when laying on the ground. 

Options for lighting up your discs include glow tape, sticky LED lights, or our recommendation, glow discs. While glow tape and LED lights make a suitable option in a pinch, glow discs will shine brighter and more fully without any chance of the tape or light falling off after a hard tree hit. Further, while tape and attachable lights will affect the flight characteristics of your discs, glow discs can be thrown day and night and will always fly the same. If you do choose to use tape or sticky lights, make sure to light up both the top and bottom of the disc in case your throw lands on its back.
