What is the best course you have ever played?

[Cannon Boy]

I still think Leo Leathers Park is the best of ALL!

...across from High School at Baseball/Soccer/Skateboard Park I believe their are twelve Great Holes you figure out the rest.
get some type or proto in front of some one and get something going. if that location is no good find another for 18.

Get-R-Done !

...Last year spring there was a little momentum to build something.

My favorites so far are:

Keriakes (Bowling Green)
Sugar Bottom (near Iowa City)

and then probably McNaughton and Northwoods.  I havent played much outside Illinois.

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the Canyon in FL.  By far one ofthe best courses ever designed.  It exists in an old limestone quarry which is about 50 years overgrown, so there are plenty of trees, schule and a ton of elevation (yes, FL)!

Until I played the River City Rumble in Davenport, IA, I felt the Canyon was the best.  Boy has my mind changed.  Davenport is a temp course so it is only available once a


year.  Don't miss out on next year's.  This course has everything, and then some!  I was 39 over par for two rounds and took 6th in Advanced!!!  Numerous routes, LONG uphills and even longer downhills with water in play on quite a few holes.  This is EPIC golf!  If you're not ready to get knocked down on the dirt numerous times and get back up a few , DON'T COME.  I would say thios course is WELL beyond the abilities of the average Int. player.  Virtuall Pro/Adv. only.

I will be signed up for next year's as soon as reg. is open.  Don't miss out.  Besides it's so close, how could you?

Don't forget to stop by Freeman Lake Park in Elizabethtown, KY on your way to or from BG.  The course designers must be doctorates, it is so beautiful.

My list is at 70 different courses played right now, so I've had my fair share of experience!

Kep playing and never stop trying to find those jems!

[Cannon Boy]

I have played sunset in vegas, its not to bad.  Some of the homade baskets suck though.

[Mertzomatic]

 Very difficult to limit to just one. Sadly my favorite course is no longer in existence. That would be the Boylan Family Farms course in Laurel Springs, NC. The property is no longer owned by the Boylans so it's no longer a course just a Christmas tree farm.

My top ten:

     Codorus State Park, Hanover PA- Has 54 holes (very tough and scenic) and a 9 hole mini disc golf course
      Killens Pond St Pk, Felton DE
     Warwick Town Park Warwick, NY - two permanent tees two permanent baskets on every hole
     Little Lehigh Parkway Allentown, PA - Site of 2005 pro worlds semis and finals
     Rockburn Branch Park, Ellicot City MD
     Woodshed/Whipping Post, Paw Paw, WV
      Highbridge Hills Sports Complex, Highbridge WI
     Druid Hill  Baltimore, MD
     Lake Nockamixon Quakertown, PA
     Beaver Creek Mini disc golf course, Strasburg PA -32 holes of mini disc golf with stainless steel mini baskets, multiple teepads overlooking beautiful farmland. Great fun challenging and scenic course with major elevation changes.

[Mukey]

I'd say my fave in driving distance would be Rogers Lakewood in Valparaiso, IN. Elevation, water hazard, unique holes. This one is really cool.

More than a 1 day trip would have to be the Peoria, IL courses. McNaughton, Northwoods, & Bradley. Haven't played Washington or Canton yet though...

Multiple day trip would HAVE to be Highbridge, WI. (as I said in my earlier post) I have family 1 hour away in Hayward so I go every year.

did u only play blueberry when in highbridge?

[paultimore]

hawk hollow, spotsylvania, va -- home of the virginia team invitational (john biscoe's private course)

[Bruce Brakel]

Hickory Hills in Traverse City is pretty good too.  Last time I was there it was still a little rough.  Kelsey and I played it last weekend.  Now, in addition to a great variety of up and down holes, it also has mostly concrete tees and most tees also have a bench.  The payoff hole is awesome.  There is a lot of hill climbing on this course.  Bring your legs.

Yeah, hard as hell but i really enjoyed. I wish that was my home course. I didn't get to play gold or the back 9 of woodlands; we got rained out 

[BigE]

Take a long weekend and play Kensington Longs, Cass Benton Longs, and Stoney Creek Longs as well.  Do it in September just before Am Nationals and you can also play the Tobbogan. 

That'll break your arm for sure.

Did you play Rolling from the longs?  I've only played shorts.  It looks brutal from the longs.  We have seven courses here as good as McNaughton, better than Northwoods.  Brett has played all of them except Rolling, which was not 18 when he was here. 

[whofarted]

renny park and the hornets nest in charlotte are now my two absolute favorite courses.  hornets nest has it all from the wood shots to the open shots, short and long, etc... i never thought that a disc golf park should need several thousands thrown at it to make it cool but seeing two or more baskets, multiple tee pads, and meticulously groomed fairways on every hole made this course an instant favorite, but once i played renny park that changed.  this park is by far the coolest park ever.  if you've played video games like 'hot shots golf' or 'golden tee' this is what the real life disc golf version of those would be like.  check these links out and it'll give you a bigger picture - check out the virtual tour too.  its a trip to watch - just click on the hole number and it will show you some video of each hole...

us airways has large hubs in chicago and in charlotte so finding a flight anytime for cheap shouldnt be a problem.  spend the money and go.  you will not be disappointed with them.  if by chance it doesnt excite you, the beaches and mountains are just hours away.  the following link features some pics from asheville, nc and the great smokey mountains.  i helped a buddy of mine move halfway across the country.  we got all his stuff moved in his new apt in one night and spent the remainder of the time enjoying the country side...

In the middle of June, there were four separate, consecutive, one-day, C-tier tournaments in the Charlotte area.  Friday was Hornet's Nest and Saturday was Renaissance.  I considered going, but chose Geneseo instead.  Knowing now that those courses are superior, maybe next year!  Mark your calendars!
