Brand new 9 hole course installed on the expansive property of Manalapan High School. Attractive red DISCatcher baskets which match school colors are featured here, along with painted red tee sign posts and 3'x8' paver block pads, more than sufficient given the modest length of the course. Navigation is pretty intuitive. Holes 1, 3, 4 and 5 all incorporate a bit of elevation; hole 1 begins with a tee shot between trees; hole 3 is a short little throw with a downhill fade-left risk; hole 4 basket finishes up on a hill and hole 5 begins with a drive off an elevated perch adjacent to tennis courts to a basket down below. Though temp. signs are currently tacked to each post, permanent signs will be in place within the next few weeks.

Shorter distances will not appeal to the advanced player for competitive play. The hole 4 tee angle is slightly off. There are areas of saturation after heavy rains. As with all of these courses, Manalapan weaves in and around existing athletic fields, limiting playing hours and opportunities.

The mission continues for The Jersey Shore Disc Golf Club in bringing the sport to area high school Phys. Ed. programs, and Manalapan represents its latest effort. It is another modest venue appropriate for high school students and others learning the game. The straightforward layout is favorable to both righties and lefties and allows for excellent supervision of classes on all holes. Reasonable OB- fences, a baseball dugout, tennis courts- all keep players honest without being overly punitive. Manalapan is another excellent Phys. Ed. program option and another step towards the establishment of a district-wide disc golf club sport!
