    People wonder why I'm such a miserable jerk......I think it's cause I'm a generous selfless person living in a selfish greedy world and I am constantly at a loss to understand the people in this world

    I left out some gems but fun factor really means a lot to me.Like theres that one hole I can't wait to see and throw again type of place..So some excellent courses lacked that Fun factor IMHO

    So ya played Kisco ? Old school disc golf at it's finest !!! Love the review........... I played the Ice Bowl there this past Saturday, 1st place in Adv. Masters !!

    OUTSTANDING REVIEW OF J-PARK !!!!!! You got your round in just as we finished with the rough carving of all the new holes. More trimming and signage are on the way(hung more next tee arrows on 10/22). Gravel hauling for holes 13-21 is also in the near future, although a frozel gravel pile will probably postpone tee pad work until early 2010.

    Hey just fyi: Tyler is all in C from now until the Yetter tournament - I just got back from a thrashing by the course - but if you have a chance you ought to make the trip to come play it. Its well worth it!
    valkyriefb11
    Hey,
    I really enjoyed playing with you and Greg too! Yea the back nine has a way of totally messing with your score.

    Hey Jerome, congrats on the silver TR medal ... I appreciate your reviews (especially since they are mostly courses Ive played or am going to play)!
    I hope to be joining you in the silver club soon ...

    Knockamixon is the most beautiful course Ive played up to this point, not to mention the most humbling.
    Id really appreciate your help and input, as of right now I am waiting to hear back from the gentleman who's son was actually wanting to do the work for his Eagle scout project. (He is in talks with the parks department). If it does happen, I think they would like to have me and you, if you could, come and look over the park and give some input on the best layout. The main problem with the park/course is it is open ... with almost no trees and the little bit of woods in the park may not be open to putting holes in. The course will never be top level, but I think it could be much better than only boring 4 holes. So I'll definitely keep in touch.
