    No preference, I work at SPCC so I call it SPCC most of the time...A co-worker and I are the original designers and builders. He had never played disc golf, and he had no idea what he was getting into. My dream was always to get the longs to par 70, and with the help of so many (Stan, Dickie, Brad, Skeet) I have finally gotten it there over these last 3 years or so. The new building on our campus was the main driver, I lost original 1, 2, 17 and 18. I feel like the course is better than it ever was.

    Currently, Stan and I are working on some new red tees and basket locations to help their speed of play. I plan on moving some old unused pads here within the week or so for both the red and yellow layout, that then leaves about 4 pads to be poured. That may have to wait until spring.

    Very close. I see you played a Scorpion event this June, huh? I was down in Charlotte this July and played in a league at Eager Beaver, got a chance to sit and chat with the TD Devin for a while. Cool guy. We actually stayed in an Airbnb right outside of Elon Park. The backyard backed up to the park. What a great place to visit and play golf. We hit up about a dozen of your courses down there.

    Wow! That’s quite the course count!

    I spent some time playing in N and S Carolina and a few in Florida. I’m still slowing ticking them off in Michigan, but 2 years of plantar fasciitis has made that a very slow process, and new courses are going in like crazy. Hoping to play a couple in New Hampshire in November.

    Counting down the days to ski season, of course. ��

    That is a great course. I’m glad to know someone who has hit every course in the state would is aligned with my opinion. Anything I have played in VA was one and done on road trips, so deep familiarity isn’t something I have in the region. That terrain is ideal, and the Disneyland squirrels eating airline almonds out of our hands was a fun greeting. It really is my favorite style of course with the woods, elevation and versatility. It’s in my top 20 east coast for sure, probably top 10 even. It’s hard to rank when I only get 1 crack at most of the courses I travel to, but Waller Mill is a stand out. Thanks for the feedback. My lady and I both have family in VA Beach. If we get back that way maybe we can get a round in. Hit me up if you ever check out the KC disc scene.

    Lucky! I will be in Molokai this summer, where we have created a course on the old ball golf course where they had states in early 2000. I'd love to get back to Kauai and Maui. Glad you're still bagging courses in HI.

    Hola, Olorin - Thank you kindly for the request. You have the somewhat dubious honor of being the first person on this forum to request my friendship. Either you have the most discerning taste of all, or you're missing some facet of my personality that makes everyone else throw up the Cross and Garlic when they see my fearsome name...
    Let's golf sometime!

    I just added Martin Family DGC, so you can now mark it as played.
