Best one day course tandems

[culinarywiz]

Just got back from the habitual Deer Lakes & Moraine State Park tandem. I absolutely love this trip.

Traveling for courses is much more worthwhile when you can bag a couple top shelf courses in the same day.

Obviously Highbridge Hills is in the mix.

I haven't played Selah Ranch...YET

-Idlewild & Lincoln Ridge
-Maple Hill & Pyramids
-Beauty & The Beast
-Woodshed & Whippin Post
-Mont du Lac White Cedar & Eagles Peak
-Hudson Mills Original & Monster
-Orange Crush & Seth Burton

The above are some of my favorite one day tandems.

What are yours?

Selah Ranch - 'nuff said

 

[Matthew boals]

Idlewild & Lincoln Ridge for a one day road trip. Local....the two newest in the area, Hazel Landing & Fall Creek. Both long tees & pin locations.

In the Knoxville area, two of the big Knoxville three (Morningside, Victor Ashe, the Mounds) would make a good pairing, and the same goes for the three in Morristown (Rotary, Kiwanis, and Cherokee). In middle TN, Fontanel + Cedar Hill would be a great day, but it would be a hard day of golf. Barfield Crescent and Sharp Springs in the Murfreesboro/Smyrna area would be good as well.

It's a tough call but if you're in west Michigan there is a variety of combos you should tackle...

First knock off Flip City. Easy choice.

Then I'd say pick from:
Branstrom DGC and/or Leviathan

Spend an extra day and knock out:

Mason County Park
Whitehall DGC
Macatawa Greenspace
Shore Acres Park

 

[BogeyNoMore]

Flip/Leviathan
Idlewild/Lincoln Ridge
Moraine/Deer Lakes
Any two IDGC
Brackett's/Renny

You can't go wrong with any of these, but I haven't been to Selah or Highbridge.

In the Colorado area:

-Phantom Falls/Conifer
-Phantom Falls/Magic Meadows
-Phantom Falls/Bucksnort (sensing a theme here?)
-Optomist/Pessimist
-Jellystone/Sakuna Pines

In Montana:
-Kooky Noosa/Timber Beast

The Colorado courses get a lot of exposure, but hardly anyone makes the trip up to Noethwestern Montana. The two courses there in Libby are super fun and super challenging. They are way off the beaten path and never crowded.

 

[KniceZ]

Hawk hallow and the blockhouse ( pick either sunny or dark side). Finish with the tiki.

Some of us will be doing that this weekend

 

[Mushin No Shin]

Any combo of these three are the best for Eastern Wisconsin

Silver Creek

Rollin Ridge

Winter Park

 

[Mushin No Shin]

Eastern Iowa. Great compliment to each other. Real extreme ying n yang for land to put DG Courses on

West Lake

Camden Park - Dark Side

 

[Mushin No Shin]

North North East Minnesota. Nominated for most Picturesque Views duo

Mont du Lac

Giants Ridge

I am sensing themes AndyJB

 

[bikinjack]

Sugaree and BlackJack made for an awesome day of disc golf. I can't imagine better.

 

[kirkmanbrandon]

This whole thread is making me want to plan so many trips. Colorado sounds like it has the most fun diversity for a two course trip in a day.

 

[culinarywiz]

Idlewild & Lincoln Ridge for a one day road trip. Local....the two newest in the area, Hazel Landing & Fall Creek. Both long tees & pin locations.

Those look solid. Indy is picking it up. My last trip there was a few years ago and the three I found to play in a day was Camp Cullom, Brookside and Longley. The DG scene seems to be growing nicely

Sugaree and BlackJack made for an awesome day of disc golf. I can't imagine better.

Gut punch. When we played Sugaree, Rich offered to take us to Blackjack, which I believe was unlisted. We declined, and went to Richmond Hill instead. Still haven't played Blackjack. Thanks for the bitter reminder.

My nominee would probably be Renny/Hornet's Nest, about 2 hours away from me which is the right distance for a day trip.

Except in early December, when my nominee is Hampton Park/Trophy Lakes.

Flip/Leviathan

First knock off Flip City. Easy choice.

Then I'd say pick from:
Branstrom DGC and/or Leviathan

No doubt. How could I have left out the Flip & Leviathan combo?!
Classic pairing of finesse and power

 

[TylerM]

Definitely the two courses at the Lodge in Pawhuska, OK.

In central Oklahoma, I'd go with Dolese, NE Lions, or Noble. Not all really highly rated, bug all very enjoyable disc golf.

1 - Moraine and Deer Lakes - Being a Western PA boy, these courses offer me my favorite type of setting and a perfect balance of wooden shots and chances to throw as far as I can. I've never played these two in a day but will make it a point of doing so.

2 - Idlewild and Lincoln Ridge - This tandem is hard to beat. You get the technical master of Idlewild and then a course light-hearted in Lincoln Ridge. Lincoln Ridge is no cake walk, just more room for error and you don't have to think nearly as much. I'd recommend playing it after Idlewild as I did. I wouldn't want to play Idlewild after 24 holes somewhere else. The only thing keeping me from putting this at #1 is as I said, the setting for the other two is home for me.

3 - Orange Crush and Seth Burton - Orange Crush is a destination course - a must play - and Seth Burton is simply a solid course. Playing both together offers a great variety of open and wooded shots. Lots of elevation in one day, and both courses are in the same park.

Eastern Iowa. Great compliment to each other. Real extreme ying n yang for land to put DG Courses on

West Lake

Camden Park - Dark Side

I've played West Lake multiple times when driving on I80 from Il to IA, looks like I'll need to check out Camden II, also.
