In person
A Disc Golf Go event is a live, in-person disc golf tournament hosted by us — a real course, a real card, other players stood next to you. The app is where you learn the shot; an event is where you stand over it with something on the line.
Inside the app
Free on iPhone, Android and the web — your progress syncs across all three.
Learn from the best
We've woven instruction from touring pros and the channels that coach them into the lessons — so you're learning the right thing from the people who do it best.
Including
The curriculum
Every lesson is written out in full — around 330 words on top of the video — from your first grip to tournament nerves.
Why it matters
What it costs you, in strokes.
“A putt is the shortest throw in the game and the most expensive one to miss: a 20-foot putt that slides past costs exactly the same stroke as a drive into the woods.”
How to do it
The method, one step at a time.
“Reach back level with your shoulder. Pull the disc past your sternum, close enough to brush your shirt.”
What goes wrong
The faults that actually happen, each with its fix.
Slowing down just before release. Commit to the aim point before you step in, then accelerate through it.
A drill
With a number to hit, never “practise regularly”.
20 putts from 15 ft, then 20 from 20 ft. You are looking for 18 out of 20 before you move back.
All 134 lessons are written this way — and all 134 drills name a distance and a count.
How it works
Four questions: what you can already do, what you want to get better at, where the strokes actually go, and whether you have an event booked. The library puts itself in order around the answers instead of starting everyone at lesson one.
Real coaching from disc golf's best. Every lesson plays the pro video right in the app, with the core tips and a guide to go deeper.
Complete lessons and the daily challenge to earn XP, rise through the skill tiers, and unlock the creator vault — every video your finished lessons have opened up, grouped by who taught it.
Say you are signed up for one and you get a second plan, paced week by week and counting down to the date — what a tournament round asks that a casual one does not, and the rules you will be held to on a card.
The newest videos from 27 disc golf channels, pulled in every day — rounds, reviews, vlogs and coaching, all in one place, with the rest of each creator's uploads a tap away.
A tip each day, a streak that counts the days you turn up, and reminders when you stop — all of which you can switch off, because a training app you have muted is not training anybody.
Play
Throw Lab is a throwing game you play on your phone. Tap once to start the power bar, tap to lock it, tap to set your angle — then watch the fade bring the disc back, the way a real one does. No course, no GPS, no waiting for the weather. Every Monday a course is drawn at random and it becomes a tournament: the same eighteen holes for every player in the app.
Free guides
Grip, stance, and a repeatable routine to make more putts inside Circle 1 — the fastest way to cut strokes.

Disc Golf Go is an independent project. Backing it pays for the servers the app runs on, the people building and improving it, and putting on the in-person events. Backers get no advantage in the app — a leaderboard you can buy a place on is not a leaderboard.
Community
r/DiscGolfGo is the place to ask what you are doing wrong, post a form video, work out which disc to put down, or tell us the app is broken. New players and people who have thrown for years, in the same place.

Four things, on top of the video. Why it matters — explained in strokes, not encouragement. How to do it — the method as numbered steps. What goes wrong — the faults that actually happen, each paired with its fix. And a drill with a number to hit, like “20 putts from 15 ft” or “10 throws from 45 ft” — never “practise regularly”. That runs to around 330 words a lesson, and all 134 are written this way.
Improvement comes from structured practice, not just more rounds. Disc Golf Go organizes the game into 13 skill paths — putting, driving, forehand, course strategy, mental game and more — with short video lessons from touring pros and the top coaching channels so you always know what to work on next.
Lessons draw on 62 creators — touring pros plus the channels that do the most disc golf teaching. Pros include Gannon Buhr, Scott Stokely, Paul McBeth, Ricky Wysocki, Simon Lizotte, Eagle McMahon, Kristin Tattar, Paige Pierce, Nate Sexton, Calvin Heimburg, Paul Ulibarri, Isaac Robinson, Chris Dickerson, Eric Oakley and Ezra Aderhold; channels include Dynamic Discs, Latitude 64, JustDisc, Overthrow Disc Golf, Robbie C, Gladiator and the PDGA.
Start with a putter and a lightweight, understable midrange or fairway driver. Lighter, understable plastic is easier to throw straight and flies farther for a new player than a fast, overstable distance driver. See our beginner disc guide for specifics.
No. The training lessons work anywhere with no GPS required — practice in your yard or study on the couch, and play a Throw Lab round wherever you are. GPS is only used for optional course check-ins when you want to log a round at one of 1,500+ real courses.
Throw Lab is a disc golf game built into the app. You tap to set your power and your release angle, and the disc flies on its real flight numbers — fade and all. Play a quick 3, 6 or 9-hole round on one of 21 illustrated holes, or pick any of 1,500+ real courses and play its actual holes and lengths. Rounds earn XP, advance daily, weekly, monthly and lifetime challenges, and rank you on a Throw Lab leaderboard of its own.
Yes — a new one every week. One course is drawn at random on Monday and it is the same 18 holes for every player in the app. You get two attempts, and an attempt is spent the moment you tee off, so leaving a bad round part-way through still uses one. The better of your two scores counts, and ties go to whoever posted first.
A feed of the newest videos from 27 disc golf channels — tournament coverage, disc reviews, vlogs and coaching — refreshed every day. The ten most recent sit at the top and the rest are grouped by creator. Instructional videos are also filtered out into the training section, so lessons and entertainment stay separate.
You earn XP by completing lessons and a rotating daily challenge. XP raises your skill tier and climbs the leaderboard, and finishing a lesson unlocks that pro's video in your Creators vault.
