Jacksonville footgolf: On its way up

The quiet breeze swept through the course as the golfer lined up for the shot — the short but challenging par-4 hole made for a nervous execution. With one solid kick, the ball flew into the water, ultimately causing a double bogey for the hole. Sound strange? That’s because this isn’t ordinary golf — it’s footgolf, a 10-year-old sport that takes advantage of a nine- or 18-hole course and a soccer ball. Footgolf is one of the fastest growing sports in the U.S. with over 30 courses in Florida alone. Jacksonville is home to two courses, and Fernandina Beach is home to one. Check it out after the jump.

I wanna say it's $15 at Bent Creek. It looks like a lot of fun, but I haven't played.
