As a natural explorer, my love for travel has taken me through much of Western and Eastern Europe before and after the fall of the Berlin wall , Mexico and other parts of Central and South America. But recently, I relearned the valuable lesson from Dorothy that sometimes there really is no place like home.
This has been emphasized as I have become a pioneering ambassador for a new sport no one has heard of. You see, most folks know about disc golf, some folks know about foot golf but it is a rare individual that has any idea about my favorite kind⦠FlingGolf! The idea of people taking a golf ball and flinging it lacrosse-style seemed too wild and dangerous to the traditional golfer.
Now, that tune has changed as this family-friendly, easy-to-learn version of golf has captured the imagination of many a golfer.
ESPN2 took note and showed up at the event to capture the magic. For the inaugural May event, I appear in full fling near the end of the second introductory montage. It was then that I saw the potential for Capon Springs to bring New Swarm to WV by hosting a family-friendly weekend on our course to showcase our slice of Almost Heaven and introduce others to the sport I have enjoyed for over six years now.
This weekend package will allow everyone to participate or spectate. With limited slots for the premier tourney on Saturday, first-come, first-serve booking is open now. To have fun, all you need is one Flingstick, and to remember to aim high and let it fly! His future goals as an official FlingGolf ambassador are to introduce the sport to Iceland and France when he travels to those places in late spring of All your worries melt away when you relax at this historic, all-inclusive WV mountain getaway.
