This is a nice thread, and interesting to think of what makes good starting and finishing holes, and what makes them different.
This was a big issue for us in building a course, and we've done some routing gymnastics to maintain it, with 2 overlapping layouts. Chris and I started playing disc golf at Earlewood, which has a fine finishing hole as well (I've blown a 3-stroke lead there, myself), and had a decent starting hole---at least worthy of throwing multiple warm-up drives.
