https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChegKRzku-_aSXlpoaE1smQ/Few states have as storied a disc golf history as North Carolina. From humble beginnings of Frisbee golf in the late '60s and early '70s to now being renowned as the state producing some of the most competitive tournament golfers on the scene -- professional and amateur alike -- the Tar Heel State is one of the sport's most vital outposts. In 2018, it boasted the fourth most active PDGA members.
Filmmaker Aaron Shindledecker, a North Carolina native, took on the task of trying to document this history last year with First in Flight: The History of North Carolina Disc Golf. This feature documentary was previewed at the 2018 PDGA Amateur World Championships in Charlotte, North Carolina, and his work is currently being released on his YouTube channel in episodic form.
