My head hurts from looking at this thread...

Never mind. Pics wouldn't link.

For some nice tunnel shots, play at Burns Park Blue course holes #5-15, all of them are tunnel throws.

a hole at pier park:

Looks like some great holes that would help you get better or beat in discs fast.

Hole 6 at Nevin Park, it's 317 feet and pretty much dead straight.

 

[RHINESEL]

I'm sorry, although very pretty I find those types of holes just plain gimmicky. No good route, just a bunch of f'ing trees to bounce your disc off of.

I'd probably just "putt" 5 times down the path and be happy with it.

Here's one that I play and enjoy all the time, hole 12 at Rankin Lake:

It doesn't look like this anymore, but it's still a nice tunnel shot with younger trees.

The big trees were definitely nicer though and unfortunately these younger trees taking a beating has led to the non-residents park members being kicked out of the park.

Why would they have cut down the mature trees?

16 is perhaps, IMHO the WORST HOLE (design wise) at West Park... this IS SPRAY AND PRAY GOLF!!.. there is NO fairway the entire time, a huge tree in front of the basket... let er rip and hope A. you find your disc, B. it bounced off something, and you only have to ping pong it of 6 more things for the deuce... Fun hole, kinda, good hole, no, and as for a tunnel, I just overhand it... why would you want to even attempt to throw THROUGH it?

Off the top of my head, I vote for #19 at The Oaks in Mokena... just a damn evil little hole... it's one of those "WTF? I just 6'd a par 3!?!"

forehand flex works very nicely here.

I LOVE tunnel shots. The tight woods at Winter Park yielded a LOT of tunnels. Oh BTW a tunnel is under a canopy of trees that you could not tomahawk over. Time to get ridiculous here as I wait for my plane, take your pick of these tunnels at Winter Park...
(Okay, got an error by posting more than 5 images, so I'll just post 5 and links to the others)

Really, check out this one. It is a signature tunnel and downhill floater.

There are LOTS more tunnels at Winter Park. Almost every wooded hole is a tunnel. There are 6 pages of pictures for you to enjoy!!!

Thanks for reminding me that it will be a LONG time before I can play your glorious course again Tim. Achilles tendon injuries and Winter Park don't mix. I do concur that their is a ton of great tunnel shots there.

I can't post a favorite tunnel pix since I don't like any of them!

I haven't played an abundance of courses but #1 @ Dretzka park, even from the Am tees, is a tough shot. 337' @ pin placement C, open field for first 2/3 of hole to about an 8' wide tunnel to the basket, blocked and surrounded by trees. If its very windy, good luck. You need to know EXACTLY what your disc is going to do on this hole.

(Not me in the pic, btw. I used the pic from dgcr's 'photos' from dretzka park, because, unfortunately dretzka doesn't open until may 15... I can't wait! Thanks to timg for the sweet pic! You're the man!)

Great hole but technically not a tunnel as there is an over top route for big arms(LHBH, RHFH, RH thumber). Holes 2,3 and 17 are nice tunnels though.

more than enough room to bust a roller.

One of the best holes at IUP College Lodge in Indiana, PA. Basket is way up at the vertex where the trees "meet."

Acadiana Park - Duzee in Lafayette:

Original hole design. Tunnel or a risky hyzer bomb to the right, over a very thick 20 foot high canopy of shrubs and crap.

A-Hole (Same hole redesigned by a storm?)

 

[skippy0420]

#6 Grey Fox - 173 ft but the incline is up about 50 ft for the first 100ft and as narrow as 6ft in spots.

I don't have a great pic but can get an idea here... This picture does NOT do it justice...

Nevin #6 even better picture because I am in it.
