    Review by jdawg24 in course Inverness Disc Golf Park

    4.00 star(s) Mountain Golf. Brutally good challenge. First off, as all other reviewers have noted, this is a new course that's still in development so it can only get better as kinks are worked out. The course has two sets of awesomely large and level concrete teepads that are some of the best I've seen --...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Harmon Hills

    4.50 star(s) Must play course I'll keep it fairly short since it's well covered in other reviews. I've played here twice, both times mid-week, and I was amazed that I was the only person playing on both visits -- even though this is 5 minutes off the interstate. Epic setting on beautiful private land...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Milby Park DGC - Old Layout

    3.00 star(s) Skip the woods Relative to other area courses, this park has good elevation changes. It plays up and down grassy rolling hills with few flat holes. If you like throwing drivers, you'll really enjoy this course. The course has a really scenic start and some very good holes in the front 8...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Northside Christian Church DGC

    4.00 star(s) Solid Course This course did a lot of the major things right and was a really enjoyable course to play. I'd go out of my way to play it again. It was a good use of the available land, very well maintained, excellent facilities (nice teepads, GREAT signage, bag hooks and benches at all holes)...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Palm Bay Regional

    3.00 star(s) Meh This is an ambitious design, with dual teepads and some longer, multi-shot holes. There is a good variety of different lengths and hole shapes. It's located in a nice park with good amenities and a safe feel. The course has its own area in the park, which is really nice. Some really...

    Poured-in-place Rubber Teepads

    After 3 years, the pads that were poured when it was hot and have proper sitework are holding up well. Some of the pads were poured in the winter due to a stream variance process and those have not held up well at all -- they started to fail within a month of being poured -- we're trying to get...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Statesboro-Bulloch DGC - 18

    2.50 star(s) Sufferfest Good quality facilities / infrastructure: nice concrete teepads, decent signage, good baskets, bathroom adjacent to start and shorter 9-hole option adjacent. If you wear shorts, you'll appreciate the hose by the bathroom to clean off your legs, which will be extremely itchy when you...

    Hobbs Farm - Looking for a well traveled player's review

    Traffic to Perk won't be bad since you're only about 2 miles away. 15-20 min max in traffic, which would be from about 4-7pm. For visiting outlying courses, traveling north is tougher than going to the west or east on I-20. I suggest taking Uber to Perk, it would be really cheap and fast from...

    Tee Pad Surfaces - Yay or Nay? (The Teebox Co.)

    Perkerson's teepads are pour-in-place rubber made from shredded recycled tires cured with a polymer. The functionality is fantastic -- they are grippy in all conditions, naturally drain out mud and dirt, and feel much better than concrete on your joints. The downsides are cost, durability and...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Glenwood Park

    4.00 star(s) Underrated Course Alert After a slow start, hole 8 is an epic downhill hole, the first in a series of very good holes. This course had more than a few very good holes that are better than any hole on most courses -- from hole 8 through hole 17, the course is fantastic and more than makes up for...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Tyus DGC

    4.00 star(s) Very solid course -This is a well-conceived, well executed design. The course has defined fairways, many with multiple routes, most accommodating realistic flight patterns. Fairways are obvious from the tee and baskets are visible, wherever possible. Good shots are rewarded, bad shots are...

    New Courses - When to add to DGCR?

    I'd hold off on it, if you can, or disable the reviews. You will get negative reviews and it will distort your rating. I've actually been going back and forth with Tim on this the last week. Courses are often installed very slowly, especially when done in part or full by volunteers or in the...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Flat Rock Park DGC

    3.00 star(s) Fantastic Park, Meh Course Awesome park. Very unique and scenic topography with exposed granite and streams, and plenty of other nice features beyond disc golf. The course has a very pleasant setting and is a great walk. Despite inaccurate and broken signage, fairly easy to navigate. A few...

    Unique Tee Signs

    The tee signs at Perkerson Park (in transitional n'hood near downtown Atlanta) were designed to be highly vandalism resistant. We made custom sign posts with 2" x 2" hollow metal pole welded to 1/4" steel plate. We mounted metal Houck signs onto the plates, then covered that with 3/8" Lexan...

    Perkerson

    I've got to reply to this post from the perspective of someone who is local to the course and owns houses in the surrounding neighborhood. It's really not as scary as people make it sound. Your post makes it sound like I'll get mugged if I visit past 12pm. Yes, you are in southwest Atlanta...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Robert L. Smith Park

    4.00 star(s) Great Wooded Course Challenging, thoughtful, valid FAIRways. It's always refreshing to see a wooded course with sufficiently wide fairway lines and no luck trees in the fairway. This is an interesting mix of up, down, left, right, etc. Secluded setting in scenic, hilly terrain. Very good...

    Review by jdawg24 in course Perkerson Park

    4.50 star(s) Course Designer's Review Perkerson is one of Atlanta's most beautiful and little known parks. The park is about 50 acres that was previously used as a farm. The terrain features moderate sloping hills, mature trees (both widely scattered and a mature hardwood forest), and Perkerson Creek -...

    the best way to clear undergrowth on a course?

    We've had a sheep herd clearing Perkerson in Atlanta for the last 3 weeks. http://perkersondiscgolf.com/2013/09/11/sheep-progress/ They have about 50-head out, which is smaller than optimal (last year they had 200). They are enclosed in an electric fence and guarded by several dogs, and they...

    Poured-in-place Rubber Teepads

    This material is very grippy when wet, even with mud on your shoes. It's similar to the playground material, but is a lot harder. The difference is that the playground material is applied in a thicker layer on top of a softer surface to cushion impacts of falling; this is setup on a compacted...
