Another Gem in DFW
Since some of the previous reviews were negative, let me approach this review by stating my current abilities so one can hopefully, get a true perspective. I am a 912 rated, RHBH player capable of shooting an occasional high 900 round. I have a weak forehand, but can shape...
Haven't read through all of this thread, at all. But, where the hell is Big Jerm in all of the promo's? The facebook page is a glaring absence. Is he really on the team? If so, he sure isn't a major player so far.
2012 has been less than an amazing disc golf year. However, I did reach a 900+ rating thanks to Innova, Discraft, Gateway and Lat 64. I cannot express how grateful I am to these manufacturers of such fine, if not inconsistent, discs. I Love You Man! So now it is with regret that I announce I no...
Jen... The Roc is on church property. The ammenities are great. Super clean restrooms, even the Mens. Cold water fountain, enough shade, and a well manicured course that is constantly given attention. I would be surprised if you did not like The Roc. It doesn't get much love on DGCR, but it...
Jen,
Have you played The Roc in Tyler? Significant water is questionable since it only comes into play on 13 & 14. Also, Cain Park in Athens. Not much elevation, but concrete pads with some water to contend with.
Giles is on the money. If your only here for a week (Monday thru Friday), stick to the original four you listed, but substitute Harry Myers with Alex Clark for a round of night golf after you play Towne Lake. Harry Myers is a lot of driving for a late afternoon/evening round . If you are here...
Okay. I played Dash's Track today for the first time. As stated earlier, this course is serving the purpose it was intended for. I saw at least two families playing the course. I wish DFW could have a few more of these courses installed to let younger kids and beginners have a course they can...
I walked about 5 holes, from the parking lot next to the baseball fields last Saturday, 3/3. No baskets yet. Looks like a very short course, shorter than Alex Clark. Putter only, from the few holes I saw.

Top 5 in DFW
1: hitting your lines on holes #1 thru #4 is a confidence booster. If the course isn't crowded and/or you didn't do so well, repeat these holes before heading off to the rest of the course (high fun factor)
2: upcoming holes provide challenges such as steep drop offs on putting...
Where To Stay
Okay, so this will be my first GBO. Can anyone recommend a hotel in Emporia? I'm looking at some of the hotels on the DD website and I do not want to spend a fortune at the higher end hotels. The Budget Host Inn had the best price. I plan to stay 5 nights, anybody else have any...
Lame!
okay, this is my last post on this subject. I left out any mention of Chris's service because it is not related to this tournament. I cannot thank Chris or all else who have served, or are currently serving our country so that we can enjoy our freedom. That is simply an understatement...
Lame!
will not be attending Tyler 54 next year.... this tournament was run like a bad C tier and should not have been sanctioned. no pre-registration list, horrible communication during the tournament and now scores have not been sent to the PDGA. (the only tournament played on U.S. soil not...

Low rating is not justified
1) Clean and well maintained park with little or no trash or graffiti.
2) Friendly locals.
3) Nice mix of shots. Tight fairways on holes 1, 2, 3, 5 & 6.
4) Epic hole is #16. A tight, low ceiling downhill shot. A birdie on this hole is very possible, but must be...
Me and my brother are planning a road trip to Nacogdoches Tx. over the 4th of July weekend. Does anybody have any info. to share about the disc golf parks there? I've read the reviews here, but I was wanting to hear from locals or someone who plays the courses regularly. Perhaps a little more...
Longview golf
Hey underpar24...
I don't think they ever hold tourney's in Longview because some of the best disc golf is 40 minutes west in Tyler. The 18 hole course in Longview is Guthrie Park. I'm not sure what your skill level is, but there's just not much to this course. It's okay for a...
Can anyone recommend 3 or 4 of their favorite courses to play in Austin Texas or in the Hill Country area? I have played 30 different courses in 8 months and I'm always looking for a new challenge. I am game for any course with some character. In other words, I do not really enjoy wide open...
Used plastic
Here's my take.... I've been playing 8 months, in my book, still a newbie. All the discs you have are going to be useful as you develop your game. Are any of them used? A weathered, broken in DX Valkyrie is money. You'll be able to get some good distance early if the disc is broken...
