Calling All LANCASTER PA Disc Golfers

[t4mayer]

Hello all, I recently moved to Lancaster PA from the suburbs of Chicago for a job by myself so I don't know anybody in the area and I am looking for people to throw with. If anybody is interested respond to this post or email me at [email protected]. I am willing to drive to get to good courses and good people so let me know I am eager to find people in the area. This site has been a good resource for finding courses but if anybody has some more tips, all is welcome.

Thanks

I live in south jersey but would be willing to get together at some point. Courses you want to look at hitting are sedgely woods in phila., it's the second basket course ever. Tyler state park. Then the allentown area has a lot of great courses. Jordan creek, little lehigh, nockamixon, tinicum, south mountain.

Check out the Facebook group and the website. Roland Park in Akron has come a long way and Buchmiller is a classic simple course but great to play.

Where in Lancaster are you located at?

I've got family in Lancaster. If I'm ever up there, I'll PM you.

Check out Gifford Pinchot State Park and the Llamas club in York which isn't far. Codorus State Park is probably an hour or so from Lancaster and has 54 sweet holes.

There is a new league that just kicked off in Lancaster - they are nearly 50 strong already, and rotate league play at 3 courses.

Check out this link from above, and scroll down for the schedule: http://lancasterareafrisbeesports.tumblr.com/leagues

Even if you do not join the league, you are welcome to play with the group.

Wow, they are actually holding league at Overlook Park, the course which was laid out by employees of the Manheim Township Recreation Department who knew absolutely nothing about disc golf course design.

I can't believe this course is getting even two stars in the reviews. As was described in them, you could just put two baskets at opposite ends of a soccer field and throw back and forth a bunch of times and have a better experience. :thmbdown:

I have to agree with you about Overlook. Considering I reviewed it and gave it two stars, there is a great way to play it to make it interesting. If you played it recently they mowed in fairways which is a cool idea but not much of an obstacle. If you play them as OB, it creates a course based on controlled landings and actually is a fun course. Otherwise if you just throw, it is very pointless. Haha, but Overlook is a course that I think any of us could have designed ten times better.

Lancaster made my list of top places for highest disc golf service levels.

For perspective, the course in the middle is Hobson Park Mini DGC and the lowest right is Iron Hill in Newark, DE.

Welcome to the area. As previously stated, we kicked off a new league rotating between Buchmiller, Roland Park, and Overlook. Their is another course taking shape in the Strasburg area, but won't be finished for awhile. Check www.lancasterareafrisbeesports.com for event dates and league announcements.
Also, June 11 we have a fundraiser tournament at Roland Park. Looking forward to meeting ya at one of these courses.
Anytime you need a guide at Roland, hit me up. I live less than a minute from the course.
