    Review by odysseus81 in course Bailey DGC

    4.50 star(s) So much awesome.... I am a recreational DGer so this review is based on what I want out of a disc golf round, knowing I can't throw a disc 500 ft. This course was so much fun. It really was the perfect foil to a course like Bucksnort. It is a massive and more open setting which lets you air it...

    Bucksnort/Phantom/Beaver/Bailey Trip

    We just got back from the trip and all I can say is WOW! As a midwest guy, experiencing DG in the mountains was incredible. We played Phantom, Bucksnort, Bailey, and Beaver. I would rate them in this order: Bucksnort, Bailey, Phantom, Beaver. The views were stunning. The exercise was...

    Review by odysseus81 in course Bucksnort DGC

    5.00 star(s) Disc Golf Heaven I want to start this review off by saying I am a recreational player so what I am looking for from a round of disc golf may be different than a more competitive player. That being said, Bucksnort is a DG experience that no one should miss out on. Tees- The teepads are mostly...

    Bucksnort/Phantom/Beaver/Bailey Trip

    I am going on my annual DG Road Trip and this year we are hitting the Pine, CO area to play. I have a few oddly specific questions I was hoping someone could offer advice on. 1. Hitting up awesome food joints is a big part of our trip. Can anyone recommend any can't-miss places in the extended...

    Most EXTREME course you've ever played?

    For me it would have to be the Ozark Mountain courses in Missouri. It is a shame that the new owner hasn't done a better job of maintaining them during the grass growing months because I always described that property as disc golf the way God intended it. You won't get any amenities, but you...

    Here's my review: https://www.dgcoursereview.com/reviews.php?id=8454&mode=rev#revform Truly a memorable experience and a course I hope everyone gets to play at some point. Harmony Bends is something special.

    Review by odysseus81 in course Harmony Bends DGC

    5.00 star(s) The Best Missouri has to Offer What an incredible joy it was to experience Harmony Bends for the first time. This course is a dream come true when it comes to course design. The course is located on a very spacious and secluded (but only just off the interstate) park that appears to be wholly...

    I totally get your point of view. To me, course design should always be the most important factor when rating a course, but the "experience"--which I guess I would define loosely as fun-factor--weighs in at 2nd place. Amenities play a huge role in determining the fun-factor. I enjoyed the...

    I really don't know that it is much more than when Dave Mac owned it. Back then it was basically once in the spring and once in the fall. The guy wants to monetize the property but from what I can tell, really hasn't put much into it.

    I get it...but my point is, you can't casually dismiss non-existent tees and signage when you are considering the top of the top courses and I think that plays itself out when you see what courses are in the top 25. That being said, Ozark (when groomed) is an experience worth having for any DGer.

    That's really exciting to hear! Get that review up and it will be that much closer to cracking the top 10!

    What one course would you play every day if you could only choose one?

    For me it is Rollin Ridge. The most fun I have ever had at a course. Wish I lived closer so I could visit more but I go on a road trip every year to try to play some of the top courses in a specific area and RR stands out above Selah, Flip, Idlewild, etc. I'm gonna play Harmony Bends this...

    I don't really understand what you are disagreeing with about my statement...I specifically said it was a great experience but when amenities factor in it can't hold a candle to the top courses. One of the things that establishes something as a top course is amenities. They are top because they...

    I'll be playing Harmony Bends this weekend and review #18 for the course will follow quickly behind. Really thrilled that Missouri has a course that is being so highly thought of. Ozark Mountain is a great experience but can never hold a candle to the top courses when amenities factor into the...

    Selah Ranch Road Trip

    When you don't live in Michigan, 25 and Windy is really stinkin cold. The golf carts just made it worse (the cold).
