    Review by John M. Fretz in course Fullbright Park

    2.50 star(s) Improved and more complete. good signage, unique use of trees and other obstacles. Interesting museum on site The part of the course where holes 4-9 play is a bit overgrown. Not horribly, but the possibility exists to lose a disc. The previous review is still fairly accurate; however, I hope...

    Horror Stories of the Course

    If you think SeaTac is in the "Hood", you should probably never leave Carnation

    Environmental impact of sanding discs; biodegradable plastic

    Many years ago, an old pro told me it was against PDGA rules to sand or alter a disc in any way. I take it that's not the case anymore? Maybe it should still be a thing

    Fast-Filling Events

    What do you mean you 'jumped into this sport'?? On another thread you started about rain/snow you claim you don't even play.

    Why are disc golfers so sensitive and angsty about comparisons to ball golf?

    I'm glad we have the rules and etiquette from golf. Too bad more disc golfers don't know or follow them.

    Tennis shoes okay for golf?

    One of my friends plays in flip flops, and crushes most everyone. None of us know how he does it. I'd break an ankle if I tried to drive in those. In wintertime, we all laugh because he has to wear shoes like the rest of us, but as soon as it gets drier in the Spring, he's back in flip flops...

    DGCR Aces 2018

    5th ace in 32 years, and 1st one of 2018 on 274 ft hole at Lakewood King County DGC. It is also my 1st ace ever at that course, even though it is my home course. lol

    When can you change par?

    That being said, after looking at the course map, and the hole info for the course. I don't see anywhere that could be called flawed and the pars for holes seem to be accurate. There were even a couple par 4's that would probably be good par 3's too. None of it seemed out of the norm, or unfair...

    When can you change par?

    I'm "clueless" because calling someone bad at disc golf isn't cool, and not a very productive way of addressing Blake's issue. Others did it in a much more tactful way. Just because you run some tourneys, serve on the "Board", and are so proud of your course work doesn't make it cool to belittle...

    When can you change par?

    There is a lot of mean hostility on this thread. You guys don't really seem like disc golfers. At least, not the cool ones. What would Steady Ed say? Don't worry Blake. Just go out and have fun, and you'll be doing much better than those guys!!

    Who is the face of disc golf?

    Is that Bud Pell?

    Looking for cool course maps to print as decoration

    Check out the map for Seatac DGC in WA state. Might be good for decorating

    In Memory: The Best Extinct Courses

    It was a very fun course, and being lit up at night, plus a bar & grill made it even better!
