Any Dry Courses out there?

[J.R.]

Played Fink and Danny Cunniff  over in Highland Park on Sat.  Fink was pretty wet but only #9 was unplayable. 

Unplayable?  Nothing is unplayable.  It's just a question of what it's worth to you. 

I was out there yesterday, ran into Damon and we played all 9.  Granted I putted standing barefoot in a foot of water that was iced over on top only a few hours before, but it was well worth it.  Would have been really worth it if I had made the stupid putt.  You can play smart and avoid the water if you want to...I'm just not that smart.   

But seriously, Fink is really muddy and wet.  Everyone should still come to DGA leagues, just bring a bunch of towels and waterproof boots if you've got em.  The course is very playable.

For anyone who cares, Fink over in highland was all playable yesterday!  Still very wet tho!

Buffalo Grove (Willow Stream) was also much better on Monday than it was Sunday.  Its a little muddy but not bad at all.

There are rivers flowing at Lombard, but for the most part they flow around all of the holes.  All holes are playable.  Hole 17 has a decent size pond 100ft back and to the right of the basket.

Also, BASKET 2 is missing.  There are tire tracks that stop at the basket, and it looks like a car hit the basket.  The lock was still attached and uncut.  So, maybe the basket is being repaired.  The cement foundation needs to be reajusted as well.

The original course at Anna Page is dry in most places with patches of snow and ice in shaded areas that really do not effect play.  Its pretty muddy surrounding the basket on 13 which is under a huge tree and some of the pathways are icy.  The path from 14 to 15's tee was a little trecherous due to ice. The tee pads are all nice and clean.  Boy it felt good to play this course in shorts today!  I  did not venture onto the new course which has dirt (mud) tees.  Lots of mid day players on the old course today.

D*mn it! That happened a few years ago & the only consolation I got was the fact that there was also a lot of glass around the basket. I must've played the day after it happened, 'cuase the basket was still there, but bent at a 90 degree angle, parallel with the ground. Gotta love people, *sigh*

Yeah somebody ran over the basket (Madison Meadows #2), but the LPD thinks they can fix it.

How does one drive over a disc golf basket, let alone drive 50 feet off a small road to drive over said basket?

I can get pretty pissed after a bad round.  Never thought to attack the course itself.

Clark Park is not too bad. Hole 2 is wet. 3, 4 and 5 are closed, but you can play them. 

[stpitner]

Oak Brook is surprisingly in good shape.  It's muddy, and the walkways from 2->3 and 6->7 and 7-> 8 are all trashed, but it's all very playable.  Muddy around 3's basket, muddy up and down 7 as usual, not as bad as you would normally think around 9.  99% of the snow was melted.

I WOULD ALSO STAY AWAY FROM ROUND LAKE.WATER UP TO THE KNEES

Does anyone know if the condition has improved much?
I am thinking of playing league tomorrow.

[DiscGolfSchodt]

I dont know but im not going to miss my shot at a $250.00 ace

[can't putt]

Kirkland is in good shape.  A liitle soft on 8 and 9, but that's it.

[atowndoug]

as of 3/18 Jericho is playable except for 17 and 18, which have flooded fairways.  You could play them if you don't mind wet feet.  Campton in St. Charles is open and playable, good crowd there over the weekend. 

[Mukey]

Oswego is in pretty good shape. Played there the other day & my socks didn't get wet at all.

[stpitner]

all of Lippold in Crystal Lake is now playable except for hole #14.  As soon as it opens up from the trees, it was nothing but water for 150+ feet in the open area.  It covers pretty much the entire open area.  I played everything else and was only +2 for the round... by far my best day out at Lippold!

Bevier, of course, is pretty good out in the grass. Woods are still a little sloppy unless you get there early morning before the overnight freeze melts.
