Not really? Having acres of land growing an unproductive crop like grass is immensely wasteful, and without being able to mow the grass that sport seems basically impossible anyway since animals aren’t going to keep the grass short enough for golf and they’ll shit all over. It certainly couldn’t be more than a novelty, only possible under very specific circumstances.
People have been playing games similar to modern golf since the iron age. The modern version uses a lot of landscaping because they’re trying to recreate the golf that was played in Scotland in the middle ages, instead of adapting the sport to local conditions.
That’s why frisbee golf is the modern proletarian take on the sport. No landscaping necessary, just put up some baskets in any given park and play.

Frisbee golf as the People’s golf is good culture.
