    Review by nevets4433 in course Tom Bennett DGC

    3.50 star(s) Promising New Loop For what I am told is a new course this is off to an excellent start. A huge park with a great varied distances and both reasonable red tees and quite long and challenging blue tees. I really appreciated the front 9 having a lot of longer open holes in the field - yet...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Everwood DGC

    3.00 star(s) Wide Open Spaces This is a very nice park in typical Illinois style open fields, yet there are a few well placed trees and shrubs that actually create a few doglegs and interesting flight paths that make for fun throws. There are a fair variety of right and left doglegs. Very minimal major...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Bob Gardner Park

    2.50 star(s) Fun Beginners’ Loop Very well manicured 9 hole loop. Very beginner friendly with just enough difficulty to keep better players entertained. For a short course it has a good mix of left to right and right to left. Fairways are very well defined and signage is nice. Lots of amenities on site...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Night Heron Park DGC

    2.50 star(s) Championship Level (Ball) Golf Who would have thought you could play a round of disc golf at the site of a ball golf major championship! 9 well maintained discatcher baskets. They even have the Kiawah logo on them - pretty cool! Very beginner friendly layout. All short holes that are mostly...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Squirrel Lake Park

    3.00 star(s) Tight Clean Lines Squirrel Lake is an interesting little 12-hole loop outside of Charlotte. It is tucked in the middle of a small nature park. The course itself has one major theme - tight lines! Almost every hole requires a very precise drive through a tight, but usually fairly defined path...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Heritage Harbour DGP

    2.50 star(s) Charming Beginner Course Extremely well manicured short 9 hole loop. This is a beginners course serving the local neighborhood in a park that offers other wildlife amenities. For a short beginners course there was still a good bit of challenge. The first few holes are very open, but others...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Bill Frederick Park - Turkey Lake

    4.00 star(s) Thanks Bill! Beautifully manicured course that takes a nice walk on the terrain next to a beautiful lake. Holes 3-5 along the water are amongst the most picturesque that I have played anywhere. Most holes are fairly open with strategically placed obstacles that allow the golfer to really pick...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Pinewood Elementary

    1.50 star(s) Elementary EDGE Situated in a small field adjacent to an elementary school, this course is exactly what it sets out to be - an introduction to disc golf for young students that might not otherwise get exposed to the game. It features 9 nice baskets and tee signs that form a very easy loop for...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Bell & Howard Chevrolet DGC

    2.00 star(s) Wait...there is a back nine? For two separate parcels of land that at face value don't seem to be the easiest to create a DG course, Bell and Howard puts forth a reasonably fun test of disc golf. The front nine features mostly wide-open holes that give golfers ample opportunity for birdies...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Bethel DGC

    2.50 star(s) Thanks Bethel Methodist Church Winston-Salem proper finally has its own disc golf course thanks to Bethel Methodist Church. This new 9 hole loop is a surprisingly technical course that plays through a wooded hill and valley behind the church. Being that it is on church grounds, and it...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Guilford Meadows

    2.50 star(s) Out into the Meadows and Back Again Guilford Meadows is an interesting little course situated at the far corner of the Guilford College campus. This secluded parcel of woods and meadow land is a nice getaway and a fairly interesting place to play disc golf. For an eighteen hole course, most of...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Nelson Acres DGC

    4.00 star(s) Great Fun, Could Be Even Better The Big Armfield course is a truly underrated disc golf course. 18 holes here take advantage of a really wonderful piece of rolling terrain that includes steep hills, wide open clearings, dense but navigable woods, and some holes in the flat by a small creek...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Catawba College

    1.50 star(s) A Small Campus with a Smaller Course Catawba College has a quaint college campus that is a pretty nice place to walk around. Classic red brick architecture and well manicured small fields make the scenery here a definite plus. The disc golf course is a series of well kept baskets scattered...

    [Putters] Putter selection for disc minimalists?

    I would just use my Zone. I usually carry a Zone for fairway approaches and jump putts, and putt on the greens with a colt. I also carry an Envy for short flick anhyzers. If I was being a disc minimalist, I would definitely just carry the zone because it can be used almost like a...

    Review by nevets4433 in course Barber Park - 18

    2.00 star(s) Has potential, but needs all the little things Barber park is a sprawling DG course that while not having a very high level of difficulty does pose some interesting challenges. The first 8 holes are largely open holes played around the amphitheater and around to the back of the indoor sports...
