3.00 star(s) Good course, but small Best use of the area they were given. I only had one issue navigating the first time, but the course map at the kiosk in the parking lot was excellent. I took a picture of it with my phone and referred to it only once. Its a multi-use park and the design kept the discs...

5.00 star(s) My Favorite Course... - Amazing layout: green grass + huge trees - Concrete teepads - Different elevation looks - Variety of open/flat to tight wooded holes - 27 holes (spring/summer) - Bright red rimmed baskets with huge red flags (awesome) - Recycle bins every couple holes - Great use of park...

3.50 star(s) Nice New Course -Variety - tight wooded to wide open holes, good use of the space given -Giant tee pads -Trash Cans every few holes - Few throwing conflicts with civilians for such a large course -Long course, which is great for what the Salem area was lacking -Poison Oak. God bless the crews...

Hole 14 at Whistler's Bend (OR) is most definetly a throw down the slope shot. The basket is the speck near the bush to the left of the guys head.

2.00 star(s) My Practice Course Uses most of the park space. Holes 2,3,6,7,8 are the best. I live in town, so I used this park when I was just starting out two years ago and was perfect for building confidence before hitting the much harder courses in the area. Whoever poured the concrete teepads had no...

3.50 star(s) Don't Underestimate This Course... - The best use of the property given - Used most discs in my bag - Trees, elevation, water, ditches, & raised baskets... - Good new signage on most baskets - Benches at all teepads - Lack of garbage cans - Some holes with no signs - Spotters absolutely...

I started doing crossfit about two months ago and I am both stronger and in better shape. I have now also went from throwing accurate decent drives to now flipping most of my discs. I know the flipping comes from strong arming and doubt that my discs all got understable on me that quick...

3.50 star(s) Challenging -Quite challenging, with a good mix of huge open holes with some unique forested holes and elevation changes. -Longest course in the area (now 8 par 4s ( as of May/13)). -Forrest holes more clear, with winter flooding clearing many logs from wooded fairways -Every hole has...

I went and focused on the shoulder turn and not being upright while practicing today. Most drives were consistently straight as an arrow. Also they glided for longer than I expected. Especially the putters. Wonderful, succinct video. Probably not for beginners, but for those who know the...

Is it an uphill approach at all? R-pro dart, straight up the gut, channeling Barry Schultz, hopefully.

About 2.5 years to crush 400+ drives. But I'd loose that in a second if it meant I was a better putter/decision maker.

Thanks for all the replies! So I played a casual round yesterday, hyzer flipping my putters with more snap and the ones that weren't wild traveled much farther than I would've thought. Field practice.... I second the Mako. I used to have one in my bag, but thought that I "outgrew it". I...

I played a round at newer 9 hole course at Takena Landing in Albany OR and walked into the small league run at noon on Thursdays. The course is mostly short tunnel type shots. I ended up playing in a group with Nate Sexton (probably the best pro disc golfer in the Pacific NW since Feldberg...

When your lovely, wonderful fiance gets you this for your Birthday (I found the right woman):

I second "Golf is not a game of perfect". I keep going back to it and I have improved and am enjoying the game much more. I came away with a couple mantras: 1. Always only play your next shot 2. Know your abilities and weaknesses 3. Don't get cute (or Don't be a hero) 4. Let the disc do the...

Just to let you know (Craftsman & BNM), I've just found a job getting $25 an hour. I also played every day while searching. I also was gainfully employed for 14 years before being let go from my old job, so I feel that I paid for the unemployment I used during this period. On my original...

The best thing I've ever done is the measuring wheel and cones every 50ft from 100ft out to 400ft. Play all discs with straight shots, hyzers (& hyzer spikes), and anhyzers to see what your range is AT ALL DISTANCES. Practice putting. Do not stop putting. Develop a putting style. I was...

I've had two rounds with the D1, and it is a grippy Destroyer to me as well. The edge seems to dig into my hand a little (not too bad). It's sitting next to my other Destroyers in my bag. I'm interested to see how it breaks in compared to them.

4.00 star(s) Course of the future... - Nice, unique signage (all blue) - Grippy concrete teepads - Trash cans/recycling every 3-4 holes - Good baskets - out of bounds stakes give a nice feel - LONG (6 par 3s, 9 par 4s, 3 par 5s) - Good balance between easy/difficult holes - Excellent use of all park features...

I knew I shared too much. Saying that I have "all this time to play" means that I can spend most hours a day trying to find a job / educating myself on creating my own contracting business and I still actually have time to play once a day. When I was working, I didn't have time to play once a...
