An Austin-Esque Course in DFW
Great tunnels
More elevation change than any other course in DFW
Extremely punishing rough (both in score and thorns)
Sometimes impossible to reach basket by following the fairway, must throw over the top for a birdie.
Difficulty (4.5/5): This was a tough one to...
I played a couple of weeks ago, and it's still in the old layout. There has been a lot of work done on the course though. I saw lots of new tee pads scattered around the course pointing random directions, indicating there will be a LOT of changes to the course. T hey also cut down a lot of trees...
Is there any news from Mint lately? The last blog post I can find from them is in April. I'm interested if they're releasing new discs or even new runs of the Alpha. An updated flight chart would be great too.
Played my first round with the Deflector this weekend, and was really pleased with it. It's definitely staying in my bag for the time being. One thing that surprised me though is how much skip it got. It's like a hybrid between a midrange and a fairway, perhaps closer to the fairway though. If I...
I played some very windy rounds this weekend, sustained wind speed around 19 mph. It took me a few holes to figure out I should ONLY throw my Alpha. Into a direct headwind, it was the first time my Yellow Apex Alpha got turn. I was able to crank on it and only get a small amount of turn and...
I was in Austin this past weekend playing some courses and decided to pick up an Alpha since I'd heard such good things about it. It flies just what the numbers say, but what I'm most impressed with is the consistency of the release. No matter if I go full power on it or if I take a lot off, it...
I just played there this past weekend with some friends. It's a real destination course, would be a shame to see it go. I've signed the petition and will try passing it around. Thanks for the heads up.
Graham, it was great watching you play! I also throw from a standstill, though I do it for form reasons, and it was nice to see that a high level of play can be attained with that approach. I hope to see you in more videos in the future.
I own an UP Shift, but my buddy owns a Grip that I've played around with a bit. They're both amazingly quality bags with tons of features. So it's not like one is inherently better than the other. They do fill different roles, however.
My first bag was the cheap Academy Magellan for $30. Great...

Difficulty (4/5): This course will really make you work, and punishes missed lines. The few wide open holes are long. Most holes have the opportunity to...

Beautiful course, not too difficult
-Beautiful course
-Easy to navigate
-Some danger of losing discs in the creek
Difficulty (3/5): This course was a comfortable challenge for me. There wasn't any tunnel shots but there was always trees forcing you to shape your lines. I have a noodle arm, so...

A short but technical course
-Not too long
-Very technical
-Scenic and memorable
-Crowded
-Will be rough on discs (bring your premium plastic)
Difficulty (3.5/5): This course isn't very long, all of the par 3's should be well within an intermediate player's driving distance. But the fairways are...

The best course in an area of great courses

-Great teeboxes and signs
-Very rocky, will tear up your cheap plastic
-Not for beginners
Difficulty (5/5): This course is downright punishing. The first four holes start out relatively easy, then the par 5 hole #4...
