Willow metropark is close to the airport. Crazy mosquitoes in the summer if it has rained recently, however.

Anyone know about the proposed course at idylwyld golf course in Livonia? There was a doubles tournament scheduled there last year around this time of year. It was cancelled without much of an excuse. The tournament was billed as a way to show support for a course going into the ground. There...

It's not a bottle opener. It's a globe, man! World champ, get it?? Lol. Those are local b-tier worthy trophies.

Heading up this weekend for the first time. Any info that a newb would/should know beforehand? I will be arriving late Thursday and playing all day on Friday. Staying the night on Friday as well. Might sneak in a early morning round on Saturday as well. Are there fire rings at each...

Thank you for all of the responses so far! I am spoiled where I currently live to have two eighteen hole courses in my backyard. However, I drove 35 minutes every Wednesday in the summer to play leagues at Hudson Mills. In Michigan, the Disc Golf Scene provided easily accessible information...

So I am moving into the Great North Woods from suburban Detroit! I have used this site to check out the courses around Appleton already, and was pleasantly surprised to see I will be really close to Rollin Ridge. What I would like from the users of this site is your personal experience about...

The Lyon's Den is located on the same highway exits as kensington and has an awesome brewery across the street. There is an honor system greens fee of two dollars, I believe. It is much different than any other course in the area and far superior to the only other open and long type course...

I have played Big Bend. It is strictly a forest course with well defined fairways and underbrush in the rough. There is hardly any elevation to speak of. It is mostly intuitive finding your way around. Finding the actual teebox is a little tricky, though. They are just two by fours in the...

A few words of advice regarding Cass Benton: 1. Be off the course before noon. The backups are legendary. I believe the course gets underrated by about a half a point because of the people that play there. 2. Park in the first parking lot next to the Hines Dr. entrance. Otherwise, you will be...

Soak it into a rag. Allow the rag to dry thoroughly. After it is air dry, a run through a household dryer should do the trick. Discard the rag.

I filled out the survey. By far the best I that has been linked in a thread on this site. At least that I have come across. My home course, Cass Benton contains many of the maintenance/design flaws that are mentioned in the survey... Which is kind of what makes it a great course and by far...

Michigan offers a few quality tournaments. No Foolin' at Hudson Mills. Only a B-tier, but 24 holes on the monster longs in early April is always a challenge. They will draw around 25-30 pros, mostly local, but a few right around 1000 rated. The date is April 5th and there are no...

No. My use of the term unwashed masses was hyperbole. I merely wanted to point out that, in my opinion, the most quantifiable way to measure the growth of disc golf would be in dollars spent to have an exclusive experience. I don't need or want a country club. All of the accoutrements that...

No. I thinking one to two rounds a week.
