I first heard of the sport in 1978 when my friend Randall came home for the summer from Boston College. We played a few times that summer on object courses we made up. Then the next year I went to the University of Southren MS and discovered they had an object course sat up on campus. I played regularly the entire time I was there (several years as I got a masters too) back then I used a whamo 165G ultimate frisbee and no one carried more than 1. I then left school, got married and forgot about the sport. around 1999 I was living next to a school and found my old frisbee in a box. I went out and desined an 18 hole object course on the school grounds. a few months later I was in Jackson,Ms taking some ED classes and took my frisbee with me. I was asking about finding a park to go and throw at and someone told me there was a "golf " course at a certain park. So I show up with my old 165 frisbee and find guys with bags full of discs and shooting for baskets. I got a lot of strange looks that day and was able to purchase some disca that day. I have been playing ever since.
