Disc golfers from Middleton and across Hardeman County have a chance to compete close to home next month. The Bolivar disc golf tournament, called the Fall Fling 2026 Pleasant Run Disc Golf Tournament, is set for Saturday, Nov. 7, at Pleasant Run Creek Park in Bolivar, according to Hatchie Press.
The event will include two 18-hole rounds. Player check-in runs from 8 to 9 a.m. that morning.

A growing sport in rural West Tennessee
Disc golf follows the same basic idea as traditional golf, but players throw flying discs at elevated metal baskets instead of hitting balls into cups. The sport needs little equipment, and most public courses are free to play, which has helped it catch on in small towns and county parks across the Mid-South.
Bolivar, the Hardeman County seat, is a short drive north of Middleton, so the tournament is within easy reach for players in Middleton and northern Tippah County.
