We're always looking for new backyard games to try out. For the first time this weekend, I played this new backyard game called Chip Challenge. It was fun!

They refer to it as 'the horseshoes of golf'... and I guess it is, to an extent. It's soooooo simple. Yet fairly challenging at the same time.

And the best part: It's never the same game twice!

Q: How do you know when Disc Golf has become a viable sport?

A: When Frisbees cost $20... each!

This photo was taken in our local Play it Again Sports -- a store which re-sells used sports equipment.

The reality of the moment struck me when I realized that the above Frisbees ranged in price from $7.99 to $19.99... used!

I remember when Frisbees were just a buck. Not to mention the fact that everyone and their brother used to give them away at fairs, carnivals, and conventions.

All kidding aside, Frisbee Golf (a.k.a. Disc Golf... "the art of throwing a Frisbee toward an above-ground target") is serious business.

...or should I say a serious sport?

Here's everything you want to know about Frisbee golf, according to some of the best disc golfers in the world.

And now, for some funny golf stuff...

For starters, you can listen to two of Bud Light's Real American Heroes radio ads:

If you love playing golf (or just prefer the online version, like me), then you'll enjoy the variety of golf courses available to you right here at your computer.

Bolo Toss -- also known as Ladder Golf -- is an extremely addictive backyard game of skill... similar to horseshoes, but different.

It's a lawn game that is appropriate for all ages, and can actually be played indoors as well as outdoors.

Simply put, you toss a Bolo (piece of rope with a golf ball attached at both ends) toward a Ladder (usually made from PVC plastic pipes) with the hope that it will wrap around and cling to one of the individual rungs on the ladder. Which rung of the ladder your bolo clings to ultimately determine your score, or whether your toss simply "cancels out" your challenger's.

This backyard game appears to have gotten its start at the campgrounds across America. RVers and campers have a special fondness for this unique (and popular!) outdoor game, as do tailgaters.

Like most outdoor games, it's a game of many names. It's also commonly referred to as:
