I really really really really miss the DFW Disc scene. So many choices within an hour of each other.
Don't take that for granted Dallasites!!!!!!
I lived in Mansfield/Arlington for 10 years, and I miss it every morning I have off of work!! Luckily Nac and Tyler have some nice tracks, but no where close to the amount of variety Dallas has!!!!!
took the words right out of my mouth. Lived in Lewisville and Arlington for a total of 3 years and now I'm in Nacogdoches. The best course we have is our new lake course, but its 20 min from my house and you need half a day just to drive out there and play and then drive back....so frustrating
Anyone played the new course in Duncanville?
Zboaz?IMO for courses I am really familar with:
Veterans = Overrated
Bicentennial (Crowley) = Underrated
Turner = Top 3 in DFW!!!!!!!
Cedar Hill = Perfect if it had a little more length
Harry Meyers = Almost Great, a few design flaws keep it from being GREAT.
Lake Lewisville = Always Fun
Paschall = A true gem in Mesquite
Greenbriar = when ZBoaz is ultra crowded and you're tired of Crowley this is right in the middle and decently fun if it's not 100 degrees!!
Bear Creek = Too busy with NOOBS all the time!!
Arcadia = Fun but gimmicky
Gateway = Good course but the back 9 ruins it for 10 months out of the year
Weatherford = not talked about as much because of it being on the outskirts of town, but DEFINITELY worth the drive!!!
I am sure there are others I am forgetting but these are the ones I frequented while I lived in DFW.
All are fantastic courses but none are "WORLD CLASS CALIBER"

p.s- how is veterans overrated?? its one of the best around please elaborate for me
I've heard good things, there are a few places they say need a little more TLC but I heard it's as good as either of the Lorch parks!

Although, it can be very entertaining out there. I had a kid that was dressed up as a medieval archer, you know they do that roleplay stuff out there. Anyway, I got my XCAl stuck in a tree and was throwing rocks at it when this kid came over with this makeshift, NERF type bow and arrow. He told me he'd gain "Experience Points" if he could shoot it out of the tree. So I said sure, and sat back and enjoyed a smoke and my gatorade as I watched this incredible spectacle. Long story short, he got it and then thanked me for the opportunity, HAHA it was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
It's just my opinion, but, Veterans is a good course. Very fun, ton of shots to execute, elevation changes and marked well. To me, the replayability factor isn't exactly there. I like the Front 9 better than the Back 9, but it seems to me they put a lot of thought into the first part of the course then just got tired and threw the end together.
Veterans is good, has a lot of mini's but it can get super ultra busy, like ZBOAZ. With a lot of immature rude golfers.
It's not as good as Lester Lorch in Cedar Hill. Close, but not quite. There are some serious design problems at Duncanville. There are at least a couple of fairways where your best bet at scoring well is to not play the fairway. That's not good design IMO. Fun course though and I'll rate it high when I review it, but not as high as Cedar Hill.
I agree that it is probably overrated. Too many blind holes that favor the locals and some holes like 4 through 7 that have too much luck involved because of the landing areas on the "green". I've heard lots of similar sentament about the Vet from others as well.
Funny story...I would not have had near as much patience with the kid. On a side note, Nerf bow and arrow ruled when I was 10. Good times!
