About Us
Meet The Co-founders...
Dave & Brandy Baumrucker
Disc Golf is not just a sport we enjoy, it’s a way of life. The game teaches us many lessons and values that translate over into our everyday lives.
Our company story begins back in late 2019...
When the co-founder (Dave) was running a league in Cottage Grove, Minnesota and found issues with getting everyone on the same page because many players were using different social media platforms or weren’t on soicla media at all. Without a an agreed upon space to send updates for his league; it often caused late start times, confusion, hours of cross posting, and tedious follow up for him as a league director.Â
With the help of his wife Brandy, they both searched for a solution, without luck. Then the idea of CODGC (Circle One Disc Golf Community) was born; a common space for leagues, clubs, and players to meet online. For the next 3+ years, they began building it out during their spare time after work from inside their apartment.Â
CODGC is for anyone who:
- is tired of traditional social media, it’s online culture, constant ads, or being spoonfed content from algorithms
- wants a simple way to manage leagues, clubs, and events
- is actively seeking collaboration and personal growth
- wants a positive online space to meet others
- values transparency (members use their real names) and want to know who you’re talking to
- wants to preserve the best parts of our disc golf culture for generations to come
CODGC is a free website where you can meet up with like-minded disc golfers who are looking for all the benefits of being social without the down sides that come with traditional social media platforms.
No ads, no spam, no algorithms – JUST DISC GOLF!
