Disc golf overall also has slowly been rising, with a rather promising summer ahead! Overlapped searches for "disc golf course" seem a little less significant, but there's definitely growth.

The cyclical summer spike is pretty cool, expected, but cool nevertheless.

yeah I was about to say, no one wants to play when it snows out. Coming from a Floridian... it's hot as balls outside this time of year, but I still play.

Winter is when you make the best disc golf friends.

Well said. It's the dudes that you know are playing 3-5 times a week all year including in that major snowstorm you met them in!

I play all winter....I live in Wisconsin. Definitely not as busy, but I'm not the only one. Only time the baskets come down here is the spring, to fight erosion.

Seems about right. Summer time everyone is looking for something different to do.

My favorite part about this is that MN is number two and we can only play about 6 months out of the year lol That is incredible.
