New Course in Vincennes, IN

[Matthew boals]

It's playable! The DISCatchers are in and concrete tees are too. I played it a few days ago, no numbers on the baskets or no tee signs. The tee signs should be in the ground in two weeks.

Evansville and Terre Haute aren't that far,an hour each way? If you two get bored with it in the years to come. Enjoy!

The new course at Hillcrest Park in Vincennes is up and running! The brand new DISCatchers are looking good, and the concrete tee pads provide sure footing for drives. With beautiful wooded cathedral fairways and fairly steep uphill and downhill shots, it is a challenging and fun course for players of all levels. Hole #1 starts just to the north of the gravel parking lot. Restrooms and water are available. The Knox County Parks Dept has discs for sale at their offices near the course. Welcome back to school! The course will have an official grand opening event in mid-August after school starts. Come out and play and you can win some sweet disc golf swag!

I've found a few problems with the course.

1. Nobody knows about it.
2. Those who know about the course have no idea what it is.
3. I've played the course for months, and the pins haven't moved.
4. Grass/undergrowth is not cut anywhere near enough.

Love the course. but some problems need to be addressed.

1. We are having a Grand-Opening Event on May 12th, see you there!
2. It is on the edge of Vincennes, on Hillcrest Road (a Knox Co. park).
3. Talked to the Super today, they should be moving soon!
4. Ditto the conversation with the Super.

Thanks for the heads up!!

There will be a Grand Opening Event at Hillcrest Park in Vincennes on June 9. The event will run from 10 am to 4 pm. There will be food and fun for all! More details coming soon. The Parks Dept has a new Superintendent and he is really excited about the disc golf course and maybe getting a league going soon.
