    Review by nygfaninva in course Okeeheelee Park

    3.00 star(s) Amazing Park / Disc Golf Average Great park! Bathrooms nearby, parking, nice baskets. Long shots even from shorts. Elevation in an area where there normally isn't any. Nice water challenges. Tee markers for each hole. As mentioned above, long shots. Normally long shots aren't a con, but...

Lots of amenities, clean bathrooms at the beginning and the end of the course. Benches and trash cans sprinkled about. At least two very nice playgrounds for kids. This is also...

    DG Vocab List - Fun or Catchy Terms

    "Sonny Bono": When a disc slams right into the meat of a tree and just drops. (No bounce at all) Too Soon?

    Are Tourneys Fun?

    I tried Tourneys early, but quickly found them not a lot of fun. If the skill levels were fair and the speed of the game a bit quicker it would have been better. Sandbaggers and the slow pace just killed the joy. That's just me. I understand people that love to play tourneys, for them its...

    2.50 star(s) Elevation DG 18 holes, nice (if old) baskets. Tougher than advertised course. Maps at the General Store, along with disc rentals and all sorts of drinks and snacks. Unique experience. No tee boxes or signs. Hard to navigate hole to hole even with the map. Although the map does help, without...

    Review by nygfaninva in course Pharaoh's Tomb at White Bank Park

    3.50 star(s) A Full 18 baskets with a Variety of Shots! Well laid out and makes great use of the park grounds. Makes use of all shots and even uses pavement as water hazards to make the course even more challenging. The map works great if followed closely. Combines open throws and tough hyzer/anhyzer...

    Review by nygfaninva in course Prospect Park - Nethermead

    3.00 star(s) Brooklyn has Disc Golf! Great setting! The park is beautiful and a perfect setting for inner city disc golf. Surprisingly challenging for a public setting. A mix of trees and woods create the need for some tight throws. I also found that putting at an object can be harder than into a basket...

    Prospect Park-Nethermead, Bklyn, NY

    So no guides? No one to show off the new layout to an out of town visitor?
