This is good news... when playing at Selah Ranch I found that the engine noise and the exhaust fumes from others on carts became a distraction and make for a less desirable round of disc golf. Also carts really seem to be hard on the landscape... leaving ruts and torn up turf.

I took it in terms of the words used.

Also, after living near a ball golf course, people driving carts are usually distracted too, I wouldn't want to have to worry about my shot as well as worried about being run over. I don't think there's a need for it in disc golfing either. But shrug, take it for what it's worth, I hope I don't get quoted for being a dick....

Perhaps encouraging mountain bikes and having rental bikes with a rack to support/hold a bag might be an interesting option. Bikes could make it easier for some players to get from the campground to the hill and back.

How bout some pics of your lawn, por favor?
*shrug* Excusing a dick statement doesn't make it less a dick statement. All good, you do you healthy fella.

So I'm a cranky old man AND a dick, who cares. I get to live and work at a premier disc golf megaplex with six fantastic courses and you don't.

Valid point. Living and working there was one of the most enjoyable summers I've had. I'd love another season of that.So I'm a cranky old man AND a dick, who cares. I get to live and work at a premier disc golf megaplex with six fantastic courses and you don't.

That's one week later than the college clubs tournaments that were played in several past years. The weather was usually pretty good for those as I remember. Am I just remembering wrong? Are there any college club tournies happening these days?

Andrew Snippen from Chesterfields DGC started a donation page to raise funds for buying equipment. We could really use a zero turn mower for the 108 fairways we have to mow, please help out if you can. Thanks Snip!<3

I'm wishing for adverse conditions that separate the men from the boys.
How early do you usually get snow up there? I am coming back first week of Oct. I am hoping for fall weather, not winter...
It took effort to find a working cart but it was an awesome experience when you did. I understand it isn't in the cards right now. I imagine the upkeep is too much. But if its ever a possibility - even just a few working high demand carts - I would vote in favor as it was such a unique experience to roam around all that land. Yeah, you don't need a cart when ball golfing either but it's super nice.

'hol up. You guys don't already have a zero turn?
Good god man, please tell me you guys at least have a couple tractors with large bat-wing style mowers?
I only mow a total of 6-7 acres at Hidden Ridge, but after 2 or 3 seasons (Prior to the course construction) my wife INSISTED that we buy a zero turn. (I can't recommend the Kubotas enough. Built like a tank, but as such they are thirsty for gas.)
