Where would you?

If I could have my way, Yosemite National Park.

It would be super fun to throw off of Half Dome.

We were driving up a boring Interstate this fall, when one of the guys mentioned how it might be interesting to relay a disc up the side of the highway from one city to another. It got me thinking how a thing like that could be organized by a string of local clubs, with temp baskets, and maybe for charity, or fundraising for local courses. You know, more a stunt than anything. How many shots would it take (and how many boring holes) to get from Cincinnati to Columbus? Or across a state, or cross country?
Sorry, most of the 'action' would be tedious, so...

...where to play? Mt. Haleakala on Maui, of course! I'll play all the downhills! :thmbup:

1,971 300' shots up I-74 from Cinci to Indy. 112 miles. Yikes.

Shoot a clean 18 basket course here in Panama City, FL.

Lotsa luck getting your golden retriever to fish out a disc at those heights

Too windy for my tastes.

Lol I don't expect to get discs back if they are ocean'd lol. But If I had money to play on aircraft carriers on the ocean.... I don't think I'd care too much lol

On a map that showed disc golf course density, I noticed no courses for Spain or Portugal, those seem like good places, nice Mediterranean climate, good to play all year.

 

[Deadshot Jack]

^^ where did you find that map?
After I retire in Costa Rica, I'll post my course on here, anyone who wants to come play, let me know!

 

[DiscChucker]

Machu Picchu

^^ where did you find that map?

Top of the page, Courses, Browse Map (you can extend the radius to 125 miles, too). Try this for Costa Rica (three listings so far), and yes, I'd love to play there, too! :thmbup:

A friend had a wild idea for a DG complex, a three course venue, designed utilizing a distinct Middle Earth geographical area for each course. His picks are The Shire , Mirkwood Forest, and Mordor. It would be easy enough to find a piece of property to support the Shire and Mirkwood courses, but, the Mordor themed course would take some doing. I reckon if you could find some Appalachian property that has been mined for coal to provide the basis for a Mordor course if the property was in the vicinity of the greener and wooded themed courses. There are also plans for a micro brewery and restaurant.

Hipster make that **** happen!

They filmed the very dark and gloomy movie "The Road" (post-apocalyptic flick) in Pennsylvania. Apparently, there is no shortage of burnt out looking towns/areas to suit your purposes there.

Inside the Capitol Building. Vatican City or many other "sacred places."

i wouldnt want to be in Spain right now. Do you not know about the massive political unrest in that country right now?
Beautiful country though. Could make some amazing courses there.

 

[smyith]

the Mordor themed course would take some doing.

Craters of the Moon National Park (ID). But I don't think they have any discs that could stand up to the punishment for a whole round. That places is absolutely abusive on anything that touches it.

 

[TwoTechnics]

Belize or the Seycelles. Paradise!
If you wanted a Lord of the Rings theme, New Zealand would work.

 

[Lurp Nuts]

No shortage of Mordor-looking land in the volcanic Pacific Northwest.

 

[dmbrun2]

Watch the first lord of the rings movie yesterday....not gonna lie those would be sweet courses

 

[NOSteveLA]

Michigan Dunes

 

[General Scales]

Mt Baker Washington, some super beautiful forest land up there plus Baker Lake is one of my favorite places in the world to just escape people.
