    Pittsburgh to Cape May trip

    Nice, must be way better than when I played it several years ago. I will definitely hit that one at some point, it's close to where my parents live.

    Pittsburgh to Cape May trip

    Thanks! I will look those up. Don't think I've played any of the courses mentioned except the Cape May Zoo before it was overhauled. As far as what I like to play: I'm not very good, but have played for a long time. Red or White tees around here are my skill level, but blues are usually...

    Pittsburgh to Cape May trip

    I'm going to be driving to Cape May from Pittsburgh, and I'd like to stop at at least two courses on the way. Looking for suggestions. Basic trip idea would be: Day 1: Drive toward Philly or DC, end like five hours away from Pittsburgh. Play a course on the way. Day 2: Drive at most 2 hours...

    [Discmania] Do people still throw PDs?

    That website is just messing with me. Won't let me checkout. Gah! Edit-Figured it out. Had something to do with the shipping protection. Clearing the cart fixed it.

    [Discmania] Do people still throw PDs?

    Thanks for the info. I guess I will look into those Discraft discs. I'll probably throw my PPDs until they die though. I think I have 4 total, including 3 of the DGR ones. Bummer that they're not making them, I love how they fly.

    [Discmania] Do people still throw PDs?

    I don't buy a lot of discs and haven't played much for the last few years. PDs have been my primary drivers since like 2011. I carry C, S, and P PDs and they cover everything from overstable to understable for that speed. But when I went to look for replacements P PDs this week, I'm not...

    Distance Driver you use most ON the course?

    I have a couple of the DGR P PDs. I use them most often.

    Bad/Homer Course Reviews

    Cool. Covid does change things a little. I've driven past Schenley on a weekend day recently and it was packed. Too packed for my comfort with social distancing. One advantage of Crooked Creek is that you will have space from others. Without Covid, I'd say the must plays in the area are...

    Yeah that seems like a more reasonable approach.

    Bad/Homer Course Reviews

    Is it bad form to PM people to ask them to really think about their rating? There are currently two 4.5 rating reviews for Crooked Creek. That rating is ludicrous and led me to drive out there when I should not have. I'd rather that didn't happen to other people. The course was fine and I...

    Review by Beable in course Crooked Creek Lake DGC

    2.50 star(s) Decent course, should be much better when it is polished * Directions were excellent. The first tee is right next to the parking lot. * First hole is a strong start. Good hole. 6, 8, and 9 were also quite enjoyable. * The course has a variety of shots and some nice OB and required lines. *...

    When they won't let you throw a thumber....

    Pretty lame that that review now has 1 of 30 helpful after this thread. Well 2 now that I went and hit it. It's clear that the guy played the course and has an opinion. Seems reasonable to me that maybe he decided that a course has to have tees for beginners to garner a high rating in his...

    I'm in this area for the holiday, does anyone know what courses in the area are playable? Some of the ones I looked at have bad conditions reported with lots of mud and water. Thanks!
