New California courses update thread

[TempleOfDoom]

Avery Jenkins is in town (Mammoth Lakes) to design our new course. We're doing a walk through tomorrow morning. Forest Service still needs to give final approval. Plan is for an October install.

Mammoth course is in the ground. Long tees (there will be shorts eventually) and one pin position done. Sign posts are in, but signage yet to be added. Baskets not numbered for some reason, but all are visible from the tee.

What months will that course be playable and please add the course to the database. will definitely play it next year.

 

[TempleOfDoom]

I was going to let the local club add it. If they don't by the time it's totally complete, I will take care of it.

 

[TempleOfDoom]

Months playable depends on how much snow we get.

 

[TempleOfDoom]

Will post some pics tomorrow.

Question on the Mammoth Lakes course, with the tee pad is the astro turf glued to concrete/put down while the concrete was wet a bit still? I am wondering as that just makes the stuff harder to replace later. Best I have seen is on a course they use those flat plastic landscape nail things on edges or the big landscape staples on the corners of the astro turf that is wider and or longer then the concrete tee pad below.

 

[TempleOfDoom]

No concrete. It's gravel inside a wooden frame with the turf attached to the frame. See discgolfpark website for details.
