Looking at his "playing record" for Indiana, there are one or two things that would seem rather strange. He lists playing Lawrence W Inlow (which just opened in August of this year), it is a little pitch n' putt kids/family/ADA course. Yet less that 1/2 mile from there is The Hill @ Northview Church, a very nice 18-hole course that he shows as unplayed. He also shows that he played Camp Indy. This is a completely unmarked course. There are baskets and that is it. Most locals don't even know about it, let alone how to play it, and it wasn't listed in the directory until earlier this year. Then there is Eagle Eye DGC on the grounds of the Indiana School for the Blind and Visually Impaired. The fenced and gated grounds, with the course that is not open to the public, you have to know somebody to play there. Some other rather strange listings too. Very odd....

I also didn't list other beautiful private courses I played while in and around Indy. *shrug* There are 17 private courses amongst alpaca farms in this country I've played that aren't on you're website thing so I'm doing the best I can with what I have. I doubt all of the "Urban Disc Golf courses I've played will ever enjoy a place here. Sub Zero

Since you are one of the very few to have played the Eagle Eye course; what did you think about the audio horn set up on the tee-signs/baskets?

So, i'm just curious, what defines a course for you, and what do you count as having played a course?

so I am calling BS....without this website how did he knew when and where to go to play in cash doubles/leagues.....why did he happen to play all the backyard mini disc golf courses in Lancaster but didnt play the actual 18 hole courses nearby?

Object courses that no one even knows existed, god-awful niners and then skipping premium 18 hole courses in the same area code

Am I to believe there were secret doubles events at the object course that none of the locals even knew existed until it was posted on here and we just laugh about it? You won and then traveled to play more crappy niners with more secret cash events

how did you contact local players to play on unpopular courses and then take their money?

Be nice. Heck, I just wants tips on how to find the Alpaca Farm Disc Golf Courses, and all the rest. I'm also a little jealous of the rest of the country; I'm pretty well in the loop around here, and have only heard of one secret course in the area.

I saw a zebra, goat, pony, horse, mule deer, deer, and a freakin ostrich all int he same fenced in area after leaving one of the highest rated courses on DGCR . . . Foundation Park in Centralia, IL. It was a little surreal!

Yes I did and there was a grandpa pushing his grandson on it . . . He didn't do it for long, then we realized what it was supposed to be and how it was supposed to be used.

I imagine that takes some coordination to get going.
