EVER DREAMED OF PLAYING DISC GOLF FROM DAWN TO DUSK?

Are you up for the challenge of playing 144 holes on 8 different courses in one day?

Join us for the 15th annual Great 8 Disc Golf Event.  Play 8 great central North Carolina courses in one day!  

This event is not for the faint-hearted.  We play in pairs, so find a brave partner, make sure your car has a full tank of gas, and come tackle all 8 courses.

Awards and Prizes

Win the respect of your fellow competitors, the glory of accomplishing a challenging feat, and some discs and cash.

There will be recognition of the lowest divisional scores, course CTP's, fastest finish, and most holes played. You must finish to qualify for awards!

In addition to the “Last Shot of the Day” competition, there will also be a Long Distance Challenge to all contestants that finish all eight courses. The winner will walk away with a cash prize. 

And finally, we will again hold a Ring of Fire competition with the winner picking up some cash.
