    Review by wolito in course Rampart DGC

    3.00 star(s) Rampart Range Ample parking right next to practice basket and hole one. Baskets are in great shape, tee signs with pin placement are adaquate and the next tee signs help a lot with navigation. Course design takes advantage of elevation changes and shrub oak on many of the holes. Unfortunately...

    Review by wolito in course Morley Field

    3.50 star(s) Beautiful Morley Field What a great location and setting! This park is incredibility maintained! The trees and brush definately come into play on most of the holes. Enough shot variety from big hyzers to low ceiling shots. There is slight hills throughout the course which add some...

    Weight loss disc golf

    Jog and throw As others have mentioned, the idea of just moving faster when playing helps. I will bring a small bag of discs and jog the course and play. You get to exercise and play more holes in a shorter time generally I can play a 18 hole course in a third of the time. Lose weight and play...

    Courses along I-80 from Denver - Des Moines

    I have travelled this many times. Definitely hit up Fort Morgan and Cottonmil in Kearney. Lots of smaller nine hole courses along the way but may not be worth it.

    Review by wolito in course The Aviary DGC

    3.50 star(s) Great new course to the area. A good new option to the Colorado Springs area. Easy access off I-25. Lots of parking available. A bit of a walk to the first tee, but you cross a large field area that could be used for warmup prior to your first hole. A fairly good mix of hole types. A few...

    How to get putter glide

    Technique is part of it. Possibly you need to commit to the throw instead. When that happens to me it is because I don't want it to go past too far. A good throw with determination helps. Get it to the basket. Disc choice could be an issue but most putters with a good spin fly pretty straight...

    Favorite overall plastics?

    Pretty much an Innova guy. Though it dosent last that long, I still enjoy Dx for putters/mids, champ and star for drivers. Although my FLX buzz is awesome, that plastic is tough!

    Looking for good newbie discs...

    Keep it simple InnovaInnova Aviar, ROC and Leopard, DX plastic. Hopefully you don't fall into the trap of just buying a bunch of plastic to try and improve your game. Practice with a very limited number of discs.

    So, how did you play today?

    Second ace ever. Hole 244 feet long with an Aviar. Great feeling.

    Turkey Day HOD 11/22/12 Turkey Creek-Iowa City, IA

    Pretty tight fairway at the beginning, then it has a decent downhill drop to the basket. Any good putter throw off the tee allows you to go straight and float down the hill towards the basket. Hit a tree and go right or left, it drops off fast and you will struggle for a par. Usually throw an...

    HOD 9/1/12 Monterey, CA

    Considering the length and the sizable drop, I might go with a Buzzz, RHBH with a bit of hyzer on it. Looks like a neat hole.

    Review by wolito in course Turkey Creek - Old Layout

    4.00 star(s) Popular course for a reason. Easy parking right next to the first tee. Great mix of hole types from long to short wooded ones. I definately enjoy the wooded holes, but there are still several holes on this course that you can pull out your longer drivers on. Fairways with the grass on it are...

    Review by wolito in course Shaver Park

    3.50 star(s) good for C.R. courses A park that is pretty much just for disc golf now. Heavily wooded throughout the course. Line shaping abilities are needed here. As a more exerienced player, I enjoyed the technical requirements that this course has, a beginner won't. Large teesigns on most holes...

    Review by wolito in course Wildcat Bluff

    4.50 star(s) Hiking Disc Golf What an execellent disc golf course! The locals have obviously spent a lot of time and money and effort to make this such a great disc golf course to experience. The first hole is straight and open, let it fly and hope to get a biridie, for you may need that for what lies...
