    Review by samxyx in course Turkey Hill DGC

    3.50 star(s) Good quality course Good quality course in good condition. Almost 2 tees and 2 baskets for every hole accommodating for a wide spectrum of skill levels. The course itself wraps around and through a large public park with soccer, football fields, and ponds. The first 2/3s of the course...

    Review by samxyx in course Solitude Mountain Resort

    4.50 star(s) One of the most fun course you will play This is an amazing course that plays down a large mountain which serves as ski resort in the winter months. You'll be throwing 400 foot downhill bombs on almost every hole. Extremely fun to watch the disc fly here. The fairways are pretty open, but have...

    Review by samxyx in course Johnson Road Park

    3.50 star(s) Good course, water hazards galore Fun course that wraps around 2 medium size, man made lakes. The fun comes with about 4 holes that require water carries or place the basket dangerously close to the water edge. If you want to bomb a disc across a lake and have it land on an angled hillside...

    Review by samxyx in course Sycamore Creek DGC

    3.00 star(s) Short little course good for practicing approaches This is a short, predominately wooded course that plays in a large park. Most shots are under 300 feet of distance and if you have a good short game you should easily be under par. If you want to practice approaching the pin through some...

    Review by samxyx in course Cape Henlopen State Park

    3.00 star(s) Nice Little Course across the Sand Dunes This is a short course that plays across some rolling sand dunes. That in itself makes it interesting. It's not a championship caliber course or anything like that but it makes for an enjoyable experience with the fam. There's enough shade that you're...

    McBeth vs. Climo

    Compare players with regard to the era they played in. As the title says, it's not fair to compare Climo to the new age players. Disc golf in the last 10 years has grown dramatically. 12 world championships in his 20 years on tour, among all his other victories speaks for themselves. He was...

    Review by samxyx in course Parc des Familles DGC

    4.50 star(s) Swampy Excellence Excellent course which plays in a marshy swamp. Playing the course was actually a better tour of the Louisiana wetlands than many of the nearby "swamp" tours. It was teeming with wildlife and our group witnessed several armadillos, 2 snakes, frogs, hawks, and lizards. The...

    Review by samxyx in course City Park DGC

    2.50 star(s) Not Bad This is your basic park course. It plays as primarily open on very flat terrain. A few holes have low ceiling shots going under large oak tree limbs. Course gets a little repetitive with several largely unencumbered, straight-shot, holes around 280' from the tee. Play gets slightly...

    Review by samxyx in course Seneca Creek State Park

    4.50 star(s) A Beautiful Disc Golf Haven Fantastic 27-hole course which plays in a large "disc golf only" section of a big state park. The course itself is predominately wooded and stretches across several rolling hills with many shots facing slight changes in elevation. The course is wonderfully...

    Review by samxyx in course Lafreniere Park

    2.50 star(s) Ugly Looking, but decent Pretty horrible looking course which has some surprisingly decent holes. It plays in a large, crowded park. Most holes are open. A few trees in the fairway as per usual. The challenge comes from their thick, low hanging, branches which force players to keep their shots...

    Review by samxyx in course Rockburn Branch - Old Layout

    3.50 star(s) Great Potential Fun and challenging course which has a good mixture of open and wooded holes. Most baskets range 330-400 feet from the tee with a few over 400 feet. Course demands both power and precision with the typical shot requiring you to clear 200 feet of open space and then 200 more...

    Review by samxyx in course Tatum Trails DGC

    1.00 star(s) Boring Boring. No interesting holes. Several seem poorly designed. To make matters worse there are several BAD safety hazards due to intertwining fairways. One tee has a 280 foot BLIND throw to a basket within 10 feet of another basket. No way to know if it's safe to throw on that one...

    Review by samxyx in course Greg Carter Memorial DGC

    3.00 star(s) Long Walk, Good Holes Great course that plays primarily in the woods with a good mixture of hole types. Most of the holes test your ability to control the disc, but a few are wide open challenging your distance. The course wraps around several baseball/football fields and can be a hike. Make...

    Review by samxyx in course Giles Run

    3.50 star(s) Attack of the THORNS! Very challenging course and by far the hardest in the NOVA area. Lots of long shots that test how far you can throw the disc with out of bounds on either side. The out of bounds consists of very dense thorn bushes and high grass which can make getting your disc out of it...

    Review by samxyx in course Warriors Path State Park - Lakefront

    4.00 star(s) Course plays partly in a field, partly in the deep woods, partly in the light woods. Very hard to navigate and I got lost multiple times. I was gassed by the end. Bring lots of water. Good variety of hole type. Played this course on a road trip as a pit stop. Didn't have time to fully...
