Description
The journey of disc golf at Northwood Park began in 2002 when Greg Nettles first designed and built the original Northwood course. Northwood Park was the original host of the Ledgestone Open and played host to the 2019 World Championships when the course was turned into the Gold layout. The Gold course has since been removed bringing back some of the original holes and bringing on a second course (Black). With the original holes coming back into play, several new holes were added which created the Blue course, which features many of the original holes. This course has a good variety of holes including woods golf, orchard style holes, open shots and plenty of elevation changes.

Local Directions:
Take I-74 to Morton Avenue Northbound
Turn right on Courtland Street
Turn left on Main Street
Go until the road takes a sharp left turn...turn right into the park there. If you follow the turn, you've gone too far. Very easy to miss the entrance.
