Man, you guys are good!  You all average between 3 and four down.  I used to play the hell out of that course, and I averaged about 1 down.  My best was six down.  I birdied all the holes except 1, eight and nine.  I missed a 20 footer on 9.

Well Jon Brakel is the Northwest Suburban Doubles Champion.  So yeah he's pretty good!

Check out http://www.pioneerlocal.com/cgi-bin/ppo-st...-05-653828.html for an article about a smoking ban at Buffalo Grove parks.

FYI NW Suburban Doubles is Labor Day weekend.

But Rylko said he still frequently sees "three or four senior ladies puffing on their weed."

Hmmm, did anyone else read anything strange there, or is it just me?

Buffalo Grove Park District has added a map of the Willow Stream Park Disc Golf Course. Although it is an easy course to follow I thought I'd post it here. The map is reasonably accurate.

I played the course that Tom Christiansen designed there 10 years ago. Tom and I met out there and took a walk around and he showed me the course that the park district asked him to design. It was a fun little course...it would be nice to see it actually get in the ground.

Just curious - has anyone proposed a redesign of this course.  I'll bet you could get a decent 18 hole course that would be much more of an interesting course if you popped in and out and through the grove of trees that is in the middle of the course.

The park district is always asking for input on their courses. I see the park district guys out there from time to time walking the course asking players what they want to see in the park. I believe the request for the holes going through the woods has been made, but nothing really came of it. That being said, I don't know if anyone actually went to the park district to ask. It's mostly the park district walking around asking people that are playing.
