People Who Love ‘This’ Sport Could Be Moving to Colorado
Colorado is a great state for outdoor activities and sports, as we have relatively great weather for most of the year. Colorado has been noted as being a great state for playing a particular sport.
Some would not call it a sport, but rather an activity; but there are leagues and competitions involved with it, so we will call it a sport. It's not played by many, but those do who do play, enjoy it, highly.
It's a sport that most any age can enjoy, too.
3 Colorado Cites Make List of 10 Best for Disc Golf
When you consider that 500 cities were included when it came to looking at the best cities for disc golf in America, Colorado landing three in the top 10 is pretty remarkable when no other state had more in the top 10.
The thorough research was conducted by LawnStarter.com.
LawnStarter.com dug into a lot of data from several sources, looking at specific things when it comes to playing and enjoying disc golf putting it all into five metrics:
- Access.
- Quality.
- Climate.
- Interest.
Which 3 Colorado Cities Make the List of Top 10 for Disc Golf?
- #9 - Arvada.
- #7 - Lakewood.
- #4 - Denver.
What's even better, is that not one Colorado city made the list of "Top 10 Worst Cities for Disc Golf."
I do not mind telling you (or anybody) that I am a big fan of disc golf, having started playing in the mid-90s; to see three Colorado cities in the top 10 of this list is great. Fort Collins came in at #85 and Longmont ranked at #37.

We have a co-worker at the station who takes umbrage with me calling the sport "golf," as there's no "hole" to shoot into; he just doesn't get it.
