    Best disc purchase you ever made

    My first driver -- Innova Eagle. Awesome predictable flight for n00bs. Learned to throw backhand, forehand, hammer and thumber with it. Lost it in the woods b/c it was yellow-green, which is the most illogical color for a golf disc I can think of. Loved my first Discraft Magnet too; post took a...

    Review by rbrown87 in course Garfield Park

    2.50 star(s) Little and Loveable Logically flowing course (starting and ending at relatively small parking lot) makes posts and tees easy to see -- fantastic signs as well. Post are well maintained and easy to see. The perfect course for true beginners, or even kids. Simple, yet effectively satisfying. A...

    Review by rbrown87 in course Earl W. Brewer Park - Blue

    3.50 star(s) A Must Stop at Brewer Even beginners feel like they have an opportunity to get an ace at some point. Almost impossible to lose a disc, except (maybe) on 3. Hard dirt and root combo allows for some really exciting and ridiculous skips and rolls. Technical, but by no means difficult. Wooded...

    [Innova] Innova vs Discraft Poll

    I throw both. I think I like Innova discs better, but I get Discraft when I can so I can show some love for my home state -- Michigan!

    Review by rbrown87 in course Old Farm Park

    3.00 star(s) Simultaneously fun and shoddy Short, technical holes with a couple mandos are fun. Three longer holes offer some variety. Generally good pin placement given the small amount of space. Kids will get your disc out of the shallow water hazard (pond) for a small fee. Well maintained, mowed, etc...

    Review by rbrown87 in course Riverside Park

    3.50 star(s) Logically flowing course around the whole park. Open, yet a bit more than a mere pitch and putt. Generally not too crowded. A great place to bring beginners, especially on the front nine. Experienced players can score well below the course par. Water hazards require risk-reward assessment...

    Review by rbrown87 in course Avalanche Preserve

    2.50 star(s) Beautiful. Challenging. Haphazard? Very picturesque course. More challenging and technical than courses I typically play in the GR area (Riverside, Brewer, etc.). Navigating the woods is both infuriating and satisfying when you choose/execute the right throw. Not crowded, except a couple...
