    Review by OldDog in course Bohart Ranch X-C Ski Center - Upper

    2.50 star(s) Potential Great views and scenery Long challenging holes Long challenging holes Hard to find the holes Terrible "map" Lots of brush and long grass on the first few holes. This feels like what the Lower course may have been like at first. I hope it evolves into a similar course as the years go...

    Review by OldDog in course Bohart Ranch X-C Ski Center - Lower

    4.50 star(s) Beautiful and Thoughtful Beautiful setting in the forests and mountains of Montana Very easy to follow - a tribute to the designers because this is not an easy feat in a ski area Challenging and yet reasonable. I walked away wanting to play it again, even though I struggled with many holes...

    Review by OldDog in course Rose Park

    1.50 star(s) It's what you have... It's the only course right in Bozeman You can see all the baskets Most of it is mowed I met friendly players The trees they planted died, so it is wide open grassland The land is pretty flat Not much you can do with flat grassland, huh? I can see the course planners...

    Review by OldDog in course Lake Walcott State Park

    4.00 star(s) Classy Course No more tromping through poisonous plants, stickers, and blackberries! This is an absolutely beautiful course with lush mowed grass, ornamental trees, neat stone walls, and friendly people. A few native trees and glimpses of the surrounding mountains remind you that you are indeed...

    Uphill Shots

    Stability matters not a bit to me - this is about the hill. I play golf and teach physics, an interesting combo! Your fairway angle tilted up, so you adjust you angle up. Throw your best distance disc hard and make it strike the hill level. Yeah, a turnover shot will grip the hill and might roll...

    What is this disc worth?

    Old, loved, and beat up! I doubt I could ever part with these discs. I used to sell them brand new at Michigan State University! Their value is in my heart!!! On the right is a 70 mold, the hot golf disc after the 40 mold broke ground (I have my original PDGA 40, too). On the right is the first...

    Review by OldDog in course Horsetown

    1.50 star(s) This Local Ignores Horsetown • The course is challenging and blends lots of different holes from long fairways to short curves and over the top hammers. • Once you find the holes, the course is designed really nicely • I have played the course many times, but took some time off disc golf. When...

    Review by OldDog in course Anderson River Park

    3.50 star(s) Riparian Sweetness • The course is well marked and maintained - good tees and baskets • Lots of variety of holes - right and left curves, low ceilings, major overhand shots. This course has me using every type of tee shot I have and most of my discs go in the bag. • The holes are not incredibly...

    Review by OldDog in course Enterprise Community Park

    2.50 star(s) Solid Course • Well-marked signs. Holes are easy to find. • Nice baskets and cement tees • A nice blend of open shots and tight forest shots. • Also well designed in terms of right and left curve shots. • Very little brush or poison oak • This is a solid course, but not an exciting one. It's...
