As you play disc golf, ticks can easily attach to your skin and clothing, especially when retrieving your disc from an area of tall grass.
Tick habitats and disc golf courses often intersect as the courses are typically situated in natural environments well suited for ticks.
Disc golf courses can often have a higher tick population because of the natural environment, such as tall grasses, bushes, and wooded areas that provide a suitable habitat for ticks to thrive.
