    To the rest of the people replying. Thank you so much for your responses. I'm taking note of them all and will take them into consideration. I went to school in Spartanburg. So it sounds like I need to take a visit to Wofford under the guise of community disc golf research... And see these...

    Good idea. Would you suggest the arborist be on the initial walk through it once we get a design and know which trees will be removed ?

    First off let me say you are a amazing communicator. I think I made some baseless assumptions on some parts as it relates to you and others parts I feel I have reasoning. But you seem to be a reasonable person so I'll save that philosophic conversation on how to get a end result for another day...

    Side note. The sport will not progress at all in Darlington If any of my other council members would have came to this forum and got this response. I would assume they would just go and try another idea. It crossed my mind. So in the future if a financial backer comes and says they want to...

    BrotherDave? What does the brother stand for? Like hey brother. Or preacher/father/brother? What's your name? I'm Bryant Gardner. Come meet me and give me your advice, rather than bash another person here to help me. BrotherDave you don't have a issue with a designer. I think you're misguided...

    I guess it wasn't hard to find each tee at Coker. We just messed up once. I just see someone with no experience and no clue what they're looking for struggling to follow a course sometimes. When they're told, here is a frisbee and go play over there at this course. Well if you're a local...

    When have you played it last? Because I went out there recently. The holes are awesome. But I found it really hard to follow 2 or 3 of the tee boxs and or basket placements..? This is something that doesn't happen in golf and that's not only the down fall of pin farms, it's Coker, and the one...

    Well dang, I asked about the time line. He says we go lay it out and y'all approve and then it's done. So I was like this is where we tweak it. And he was like yep. So sounds like this guy nail it right on the head. Because this councilman already dreamed of giving it his own twist. Maybe I can...

    My par three course, the original dream... I'm thinking we set up a "putting course" on that property. It will give us something to do until the real course is built.

    My number one goal is the player who has never played in my town walking away wanting to buy discs at their first round at home. My second goal is all you purest who are about to cost my city some real money beyond my original 10k. So I told him red tee, fun course that's easier. Blue tees a...

    Dang, tell me how you really feel. Well I was doing it on my own and that was good enough. So I went with who our recreation director new and happened to be the Innova guy. So I guess I hope you're wrong and he can make a decent course for us.

    I'm taking a person out who's never thrown a disc and want advice

    I was thinking to give this person who's never played on a course a avair disc to throw. Or maybe a shark so they can throw it kinda far easier? Would You choose a putter or a mid for one club for a person who's never played? Or give them both to them..?

    It's been a busy day. We have scheduled a onsite visit for the 14.8 acres for this coming Tuesday. Hopefully we will get some favorable news about being able to do a full 18 hole course. The hills make it possible in my mind. I'm going ahead with the 10k for the small course, pending council...

    It has a fenced in area that can't be used. It's evident in the picture.
