Hole of the day 5/2/2010

Prospect Park DGC in Brooklyn, NY

Hole 20 543 ft Par 4 (Pro Par 3)

Based on map a straight shot to the goal. Is this really a permanent course? I can't believe those cones would stay in one spot for very long.



Honestly, it doesn't matter what I'd throw. I'm hitting that tree guaranteed. I might as well toss that Birdie that goes unused and just start from under the branches.

I'm with you. I think I'll throw...a fit when I send my drive straight into those branches.

It looks as though the hole slopes down a bit so a straight throw of either my Beast or Star TL would go straight and get some noticable distance. I would even consider a roller if I had a decent roller shot in my game.

Brooklyn, NY means close to sea level, means I can pull out either my super beat DX Destroyer or my ESP Avenger SS and throw a roller right under those branches. I may not be able to throw the best looking rollers but odds are I would get under those branches. I am just worried about that curb.

Ny the way, RHINESEL, thank you very much for always starting these threads. I really enjoy them and look forward to them. It is a good mental exercise that I can do while sitting on my bum and still feel like I am attempting to improve my DG game.

Definately agree here. I love doing the hole of the day. Just another way for me to think about disc golf while I am at work. It is also good to hear what other players would thorw in the same situation.

No problem, I think it's a lot of fun and sometimes people see lines that I don't.

I thought about a roller too. I just started practicing it in a field yesterday.

Hard to tell how much ceiling there really is. That first tree is really close to the tee. Probably a roller, if there is room to even get it started. Maybe even my Whippet off the tee, because it will tend to stay on a low line. I'd be curious to see how open it is out to the right, maybe a big hyzer with an Avenger or Surge.

This is a good one, because it's not so obvious...

Gotta be a temp. Hole 2 is a bridge. Hole 14 is a bike path(?). Both with the same cones.

As for the shot, I'm thinking an anny right at the the big tree on the left. Toss it up kinda high using my Illusion and let it fade back. This would probably get me out to those two big trees on the right. My pathetic rollers always turn right.

gonna throw a GL striker nice and low on a skip shot. Should be able to get 200' from the tee. Then it's all about the second shot... and a putt i'm sure to miss.
