I'd suggest leaving google feedback for Midwest Disc Golf.

Yikes

A side note, I found a Champ Starfire on #12 at West Lake park, and I thought, this looks familiar... Sure enough, it was the same disc I threw in the drink on #13 in June of last year! Ha!

Wow, discs come back from #13? My buddy flipped one over on that hole by accident and went about 30ft off shore. It was his most valuable (to him) disc so he tried going after it. It was probably 20 feet deep in there. He was diving until he ran out of breath but had to give up on it. It was his first time out of the Chicago area (besides his one trip to Ozark Mountain with us). I probably should have started him off on an easier course than West Lake. He lost all his go-to drivers between holes 5 and 13. By the time we left the park all he had left was his beat star Wraith and his midranges/putters. I felt really bad for him.

.......YELP is also a good place to submit feedback........

I'll certainly go leave some feedback. At the moment it's time for me to be sleeping, spent all day loading and cleaning, and I get to spend the next couple days driving. See you all in a month or so.

good luck with the move Matt! Hope you guys get to hit some sweet courses on the way back

Hey, there's always the option to lay up at West Lake... Heh heh heh.

I also couldn't believe that was the same disc I lost. The odds must be ridiculous!

Along with all the above the circles were painted on all 27 holes.
The tents were stocked often with new ice cold water and snacks. I never ran out of water.
Dretzka is a great course. One round from longs and one from shorts.
I believe there were 4 vendors with a combined huge selection of discs.
That payouts were very good on both the pro and am sides.
The raffle is by far the best that I've seen at a disc golf event.

I have to thank Josh, Dave, & crew for running a great event in memory of Monroy.

Thanks for the info. Ill try and play this one next year.
