The Tao Ka-Ching: confessions of a disc golf basket-case

Abstract

My goal for this project is to introduce the sport of disc golf and my essays on it, as well as to mediate the conversation of the topic so that both a literary reader and a "regular" disc golf player can get an enjoyable and satisfying read out of the (future) book. Although at first glance, the two reader-types seem to be on opposite ends of "culture," so to speak, I hope to bring them together in a common quest for the meaning of life and the enjoyment of disc golf. A tall order, indeed, but this is what Robert Pirsig did in his 1974 book Zen and the Art o/Motorcycle Maintenance, although his "vehicle" was a motorcycle.
