Disk Golf

It only costs $7 or so for a disc (but not a plain old frisbee, they don't fly as well -- check your local sporting-goods store) and transportation to Pease, Zilker, or other parks around town, and you're set to go. Don't bother with the ugly plaid pants -- cut-offs and an old T-shirt fit in much better. And don't holler obscenities after a bad shot -- disc golfers are expected to be, shall we say, more mellow.
