Michigan New Course Updates

[BogeyNoMore]

I could play this on the way home from work! Need to stop by and check it out, maybe see when they're planning work days. FWIW, that basket looks like it might be a Kingpin They're available in a rainbow of colors. Played on them once - pretty good.

I had heard that Ted Stoebling (sp?) of Am Nat fame was the driving force and laborer. Sounded like he could be found out there many days.

Thanks! Will follow up with him.

FYI - picked up a Z-Buzzz SS (orange, 180g). You can get it from me at Belle Isle this Sat. the 12th

I know this forum is for new Michigan courses, but I wanted to tell everybody that the baskets have been pulled at the Kalamazoo Air Zoo as of today. I was going to play one more farewell round tonight only to arrive and find a No Trespassing sign and the baskets gone.

It was easy, but fun, and I'm bummed to see it go. If I needed a quick, cute (and still somewhat interesting) round on my way home, the Air Zoo was it. R.I.P.

Air Zoo was a fun little course. I guess I'm not surprised they pulled it. Any specific reason(s)?

Also, thank you very much for the update. Has anyone RIP'd it in the course listings yet?

 

[Central Scrutinizer]

Yes, it's R.I.P.'d

The sign they put up next to the No Trespassing sign said (paraphrased) that too many non-family friendly activities were going on, and they apologized to those of us who respected the course.

We have too many scuzzbags playing our sport now.

Now? Like running into scumbags at the course is a recent development?
Been that way for the decade I've been playing.

Sorry about the thread drift.

finished the state of michigan last sunday with: arbors of traverse apts, the backyard and attempted to play strongheart (that course is totally NOT playable btw) I shouldn't have added it yet.

 

[BogeyNoMore]

I must say, that's quite an accomplishment. Not one that I'd personally even try to do, but certainly deserving of respect. Not many can say they've played every course listed in their state, especially in a state with this many courses :tipofmyhatsmilie:

 

[apdrvya]

thank you sir.
the UP was the biggest accomplishment, followed closely by detroit area (SE michigan)

I remember when it wasn't this way.
