    Review by HawaiiJack in course The Eagle's Claw

    2.00 star(s) Deceiving, In A Good Way The addition of a 2nd set of tee markers has created an 18 hole course, playing to the original 9 baskets. Nice creative use of elevation and superstructures in the schoolyard as obstacles. Odd drain holes could lead to a lost disc. Basket positions and multiple tee...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Heritage Farm Park

    3.00 star(s) Terminal Poison Ivy Lots of grip-it-and-rip-it holes with good advantage taken of vegetation and elevation changes where possible. Very poor drainage on holes #6 - #9 and #19. Intense poison ivy growth along the fence line from #3 - #6. Thick rough near the creek leads to disc loss risk at #3 -...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Codorus Township Park

    3.50 star(s) Der Luftwaffe Challenging use of elevation changes. Comely bucolic scenery. Good use of Next Tee markers on baskets for this wide, meandering course. Presently maps and tee markers don't exist and they are sorely wanted. The green undergrowth in the woods is dense and some paths need to be...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course New Hopewell DGC

    2.00 star(s) Ace Fest Recently expanded from 9 to 18 holes. Still under reconstruction or relocation as tees are missing at #2 and #9. Poor drainage, entire course is flat. This plays like two distinct 9 hole courses. The front 9 is just a set of ace runs with mostly short holes in the woods. The rest of the...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Papa Jack's DGC

    1.00 star(s) Nice that 2 guys were honored Wide open. Nice tee signs show the location of other tees and pins to help with orientation on a mostly featureless layout. No shade. Very little variety. Tees are marked only by bare spots or a single painted line on walkways. Any course is better than no course...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Wilson College DGC

    3.00 star(s) Tranquil & Collegial Pleasant college course. Trees and elevation changes used well to create interest and increase challenge. Some tees and tee signs are a bit hard to find or missing. Tees are generally just bare spots with a marker near the tee sign. It wasn't an issue when I played but being...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Druid Hill Park - Legacy

    2.50 star(s) Navigational Nightmare New X-holes add variety ("X" holes are marked as X (9 total), OH (3 total), and NX (6 total)). Crude but effective hand painted maps at the X tees help you locate the many blind baskets. Nice folf tips on the main course tee signs. Lots of irregulars hang out at the start...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Turkey Hill DGC

    4.00 star(s) Patapsco & Seneca Creek: Move Over! Great signage. Lots of variety and flight choices with 2 tees and 2 baskets on most holes. Nice scenery and environment. A lot of thought and work went into this course. The course is sort of a perma-bog but as the whole park is a wetlands area that kind of...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Calvert Road Park

    3.50 star(s) Historic Gem User friendly pars. Compact layout. Poor drainage. High density of casual park users. There are a bewildering number of mandos and only locals seem to know which are "active". Some are only a few feet off the tee pad and all can be safely ignored as their primary purpose was to...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Signal View DGC

    3.00 star(s) Now 18 Holes Great variety. Great scenery. Rubber mats for tees, and the Red tees have only mini mats.. Long walks between some holes. This course recently expanded from 9 to 18 holes. The 9 hole course was championship quality and several original holes remain. The new layout shows a lot of...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Nawakwa Woods DGC

    1.50 star(s) Quirky Good signage. Nice scenery on a plateau where baskets #7 - #12 are located. Beginner friendly pars. Very short teepads lead to drives being thrown with 1 or zero steps. The fairways for holes #13 - #18 use single lane gravel/paved camp roads which cuts the fun and chews up your discs...

    Disc recommendations for my newbie girlfriend

    I started my gf off with a Shark and a Precision. When she got the basics down I let her pick any putter or driver she wanted to use before each round. Eventually she sort of settled on a Viking for a driver (I think mostly because she likes the color). Some rounds we play alternate shot and she...

    Method for Charting Rounds

    In one of the threads here (I believe) some chap posted a method for charting rounds and using the data gained over several rounds to analyze patterns in your game for improvement. Each hole was charted rather quickly using check boxes and the like for items such as length greater or less than...

    Review by HawaiiJack in course Poor House Farm DGC

    2.50 star(s) Oh my, another tree tunnel off the tee Nice work to get a course into unfavorable terrain. Being aggressive while maintaining accuracy off the tee will result in many birdie opportunities. Inadequate signage. This park is honeycombed with trails and paths branch out in many directions from...
