One Love

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 17, 2022 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

First and foremost, do not take this course too seriously. Take it for what it is, a chance to practice the love of disc golf.

I haven't written a review in over 4 years. For a diamond reviewer to come out of the lurking phase must take some chutzpah.

This course is a whole 5 holes and is an entry in ArtPrize 2022. The baskets (as they are) are made from rusty recycled steel and the disc bin was full to the brim with discs that MVP/Axiom donated to cause. DO NOT BRING YOUR BAG TO THIS ONE, you just look silly. Either bring a putter or borrow one from the bin! :)

The holes are extremely beginner friendly and are maybe 60-100 ft long each. lets start from the beginning

Spider - Spider is the largest sculpture here. The basket rests in the middle of 8 legs that threaten to bounce away your putt.

Monster - I watched a group behind me ace this one and the excitement was no less exciting! I would have preferred that the basket was throwable from both sides (at least) but what can you do

Butterfly - as mentioned, this is a very squat basket but I can see the ace run excitement here as well.

Frog - the least basket-like basket. Plays to an old cement mixer drum very near the ground. would take a near perfect drive to hit this one. Again, doesn't play from the back but it's all good.

Cow - Cow is MASSIVE with a massive gape to catch your disc. I rattled off the side both times we played.

Other Thoughts:

I can't tell you the enjoyment I got from playing this course. It was fantastic to see all of the people from avid disc golfers to complete amateurs to the completely new to the sport who came out to try this.

This is one love at it's best, and a great way to grow the sport!

Fantastic work!
