water hole pictures?

in the first buckhorn open the wind was horrendous and i played with a guy who lost ALL of his discs, we loaned him a few to finish the round. (this was in a pro division btw)

best course in/near raleigh imo.

Hole 8, Cedar Glades Park DGC - Hot Springs, AR:

Although the water doesn't appear to be the main feature of this hole (the trees and elevation seem much more dominant in the pic), you can ask anyone that plays there regularly and they'll tell you that the water is the deal-breaker here. Cool thing about this hole is that there's a tiny RH spike hyzer gap almost directly above the teebox. Very risky, but works for those of us who feel comfortable with the shot.

Also, here's one from my old home course. Unfortunately, this pic was taken in the winter when the pond was very low and kinda dirty looking.

Hole 8, Beaver Course @ Lorch Park - Cedar Hill, TX:

The water is kinda low now, but the grass is a beautiful bright green, and the volleyball post has been removed

You play back across the other corner of the same pond on hole 17 of that same course:

The pin is in the short position in that pic...the long position is at the top of the hill, just short of the tree line. The course designer is considering cutting another pin location IN the woods at the top of the hill. SICK!

I like this hole, nicely summed up with this video ace:

Looks like a fun risk/reward shot! I love holes like that.

Wow, cool shot and very cool hole. Looks like you don't have much choice other than going for it over the water.

That can happen, I lost a champ orc, a star valkyrie and a couple other discs I didn't mind losing there. My best is a one under (from the am tee's playing everything as a 3), but I don't relish playing there as it is very challenging.

I enjoy UNCDG, Valley Springs, and Zebulon more, but Buckhorn is a great, challenging course.

Stoney Hill, #15 or #16, as see from tee.

Road beyond green is also OB, so it's effectively an island hole.

About 250' to clear water, 295' to basket.

Loving that new lake, David!

WTF is that sh*t?! No thank you.

At the Stoney Hill Challenge, construction was just completed but there was just a little bit of water in the bottom....so we roped it and threw over an imaginary pond. I thought anyone who was there might like to see the finished product.

(Water being the disc-magnet that it is, a few people still managed to sink some drives, so to speak, even with the pond mostly empty).

Yeah how fun is that? Close your eyes and pray you don't kill your disc?

lol, I think it'd take me at least 3 throws to get through that

The guy foot faulted big time. Watch again

He did, take away his ace!

Good catch Midnight, I definitely didn't see that the first time through.

This is #17 of Jack Brooks #2 in Hitchcock, TX

This is the tee. The basket is up on the hill in the right upper corner of the pic:

Here is the shot of the basket, looking back at the water and the tee:

how long is the sot over the water?

look at hole 6, the gap is no more than 3 discs wide, and it curves.

I pulled a 3 out of my ass on that hole.

how long is the sot over the water?

432' tee to basket.

To clear the water it depends on the path you take. For the straight across (at the basket) line, IIRC it's right about 300'.
