    Review by unsmith in course West Winds DGC

    3.00 star(s) Picturesque Mountain Golf 20 holes of differing shot shapes spread around a sprawling old ball golf course in the middle of a golf course community. As such, you have cart paths everywhere to guide you, and some helpful stencils on the paths where needed to get you to the next hole. Baskets...

    Review by unsmith in course Mountain Crest Park

    4.00 star(s) Desert Oasis Well maintained course in a well maintained park. Baskets are all in good shape, no issues there. Concrete tees provide excellent footing. Bathroom facilities are right in the middle and accessible in the middle of your round or at the end. Very good signage and easy to navigate...

    Review by unsmith in course Old Economy Park DGC

    1.50 star(s) One fun downhill throw on 3. Picturesque. Generous pars if you like tracking your score in relation to par. Good signage and easy to navigate. A horrible sodden mess if it's rained recently. All out and no back, so after you play the half a hole that is hole 9, enjoy the long walk back to your...

    Review by unsmith in course Pine Grove Middle School

    1.50 star(s) Frustrating Good use of elevation. Holes 10 and 11 play from the school and it's always fun to throw down big hills. The return trip back around the ball fields feature some significant uphill shots which will challenge you. Pretty good use of limited space to get in 18 holes using only 9 (or...

    So, how did you play today?

    15 over for 27 holes at Seneca Creek, with 3 birdies. For a relative noob this felt fantastic, most of my shots were kinda-sorta on the line I was envisioning, which for me is success.

    Choosing disc weights/Speed that fit your game

    A friend who turned me on to disc golf told me to make a Latitude 64 starter set - Diamond, Jade, Pearl, Ruby. All of those can be had as 150-ish discs, which suited me well as a newer player with low power. Since then (only been playing a few months) I've attempted to add some 160 and 170-ish...

    Review by unsmith in course Seneca Creek State Park

    4.00 star(s) There isn't much that can be said about this course that hasn't already been said - it's well known as an excellent course. My personal take-aways: Plenty of variety in shots, this isn't a RHBH course where you might have to throw one or two anhyzers per round, there are plenty of those shots...

    Review by unsmith in course Scarboro Hills

    3.00 star(s) Disc Golf and Mountain Hiking Dedicated park space, which is rare around these parts. Well maintained with thought put into hole locations and multiple pin placements per hole. While kind of in the middle of nowhere, there is sufficient parking. This course encourages (and sometimes requires)...

    Review by unsmith in course Middletown Park

    2.50 star(s) A Walk in the Park - Literally A picturesque course in the middle (heh) of Middletown, with homes on one side, mountains on the other, and a nice big pond in the middle. Course is mostly open, so it's a good place to try out new discs to see how they fly or work on your rollers. If you play...

    Review by unsmith in course Schumaker Pond

    2.50 star(s) Shorter course, good for beginners who don't throw very far (i.e., doesn't require a bomb off the tee to have a chance at a deuce). While mostly in the woods, there's a decent mix of lightly and heavily wooded throws with a few open-field throws to mix it up. Signage is excellent, though if...
