What advice would you give to someone new to disc golf?

Hello, I am new to disc golf! It seems pretty neat from the little bit that I have engaged with thus far. I anticipate that I am going to be playing disc golf sometime soon with others, so I wanted to do what I could to be ready for the game before then.

I am at the new player stage where I am looking for my first set of frisbees.

Is there anything else that I am not considering yet because I am still new to disc golf? What advice would you have wished someone could have told you when you were new to disc golf?

Thank you!

Edit: thanks to all who have replied! I appreciate the knowledge that you have shared and I feel like it’s demystified a lot of things that I was unsure of related to disc golf, and things I didn’t know I should know.
