Thanks Mando. That is quite the compliment coming from you. The course is looking real good right now. It’s a bit wet after a big winter, over 450” of snow. There is still a ton of work to do and improvements to be made on the course.
I apologize again to all of you for that terrible thread I...
Cherry Hill has been closed and baskets pulled since 2013. It was less than a half mile down the road from Black Falls.
I still shake my head in disbelief at that one real negative review of Black Falls. This was the same year someone stole our sign and vandalized the course.
Smugglers Notch has set the new standard for a Word Championship in every respect. There is simply no better place to play golf or spectate on the planet.
Congratulations to Paige and Gregg. It was a pleasure watching you throw!
Excellent blazerico ! Looks like we just got another favorable review today. Must have been someone who played in this past weekends tournamnet. The course is playing very well despite all the damage from a bad wind storm last fall.
Since this seems to be allowed practice maybe I will get 10 of my die hard patrons to write 5 star reviews for the course. Why not? It would be nice to hop back into the top 25 after that 1 star review. We could always use more traffic aincome. We average 3 people per week and 1 review per...
As a disc golf course owner I fully understand the consequences of putting my course on this most excellent site. Big thanks to Tim and the moderators for allowing us to respond to reviews.
I’ve had people tell me directly to my face that they did not enjoy the course or thought it was quirky...
IMO, the 1.5 rating of Black Falls was a blatant and malicious attack just like the recent vandalism that took place at the course. The person also went out of their way to slam it on the PDGA review page. I still believe that this person did not actually play the course, but instead played...
There are plenty of good ones out there. We just seem to attract some bad lately. The policy changes will be difficult for a while, but will stabilize by the end of the season. It’s nice to know who will be on the course at all times.
Black Falls season typically runs from April 15- December 1. We average 375” of snow per season.
It was bound to happen that someone would give us a bogus review. We will probably never see the top 25 again. For us exposure is necessary. Our costs are high and we don’t see much traffic. We...
Lol! No worries Dave. We had a pretty interesting discussion on the Black Falls Facebook page after the latest vandalism incident. One person commented that since we charge so much money we shouldn’t have a problem paying for the damages. I have no filter anymore which can get me into trouble...
Well put Mando. We had to change our policy this past fall . In late October the course was severely damaged by 100mph winds. The estimated cost of cleanup has been in the 10’s of thousands of dollars. We now require a tee time and $10 fee to play the course. Kids under 10 play for free. The...
Course was in perfect condition and got lots of play that week. I noticed a car a from Maine up at the defunct "Cherry Hill" course. I figured that was him and he played that course thinking it was Black Falls. There are still baskets on Cherry Hill but it is overgrown and basically unplayable.
I own an excavating company and have a 72 " front mount mower. The course gets mowed twice a week during the summer and has grass that is nicer than most ball golf courses. Yes there are bushes and ferns all over the place but not on the fairways or landing zones. You really have to pooch a...
Here is a pretty neat video some guy did a few months back. Looks like he had some great shots.
