0.50 star(s) Wish I could review Just a quick comment I had avoided this course due to some bad reviews on UDisc. More recent reviews were much better so on Labor day (09/40/2023) I took the 30 minute drive out there. 8:15 AM (So well after sunrise) on Labor Day and the gate was closed and locked with a sign...

3.00 star(s) It is what it is For me (a local) good place to go for a quick round just a few minutes away. It is definitely no challenge for advanced players, but for new players (like me) it's a good shot to go par or less and very small chance of lost discs, although that does exist with very errant...

Thanks all. I couldn't find that disc in opto in my local Play It Again Sports so ordered a couple more being VERY SURE that they are opto. I'll let y'all know how that goes. And, I guess with the retro I'll throw them into a bunch of trees (or maybe run them over with my car a few times) to...

Semi-newbie and have a hard time with distance and throwing level. I think I did what a lot of newbies did and thought, "I just need faster discs"! Yeah, no. I tend to throw on a hyzer and finally found a disc - flight rating 8 6 -3 1, that I can get to flip up so I get a lot more distance...

4.00 star(s) Nice course for people who don't drive it far! Nice course with pretty short but (for me) challenging par 3s. Not so many trees that you have to thread it for 200 feet but enough that you have to be able to miss them, or at least get lucky. No real cons except that directions from one basket to...

4.00 star(s) Good long course with lots of hills A lot like the wing course. Old ball golf course turned into a disc golf course. It does have a par 5 and a few par 4s which isn't great for my not strong arm but is nice instead of just a bunch of par 3s. Mostly open but some baskets in the woods and at...

More a rant than a question. I am in Central VA and have played Rockwater Park in Culpeper a few times. I like the course. But there are a lot of walking paths running through the course. I'm OK waiting for people who are walking to be clear. Well, patient enough anyway. But I have come...

Going to be in Jackson, WY with family second week of August. I'm in VA where we have mountains but not MOUNTAINS like WY. I have this dream in my head where I'm standing a mile up on a mountain and see a basket 1/2 mile down in the valley. Does any such thing exist near Jackson WY? Worth...

Doh! I mean hyzer! Not anhyzer!

Hello all! I haven't posted for a while. Been cold in Virginia, you know? Anyway, got some of the suggested discs with some success. But since I've been back out since it's been getting warmer here my drives are shorter than ever and stall out to the left. I figured my arm is another year...

Thank you everybody for your thoughts and suggestions. And, yeah, I need to appreciate accuracy and not JUST distance. The places I play the most are pretty open so more distance to get a closer approach is what I look for. But there are some courses not too far from me that have a lot more...

Probably 300 max. I actually got SOOOOO lucky once! If anybody is in Central VA, Rockwater park in Culpeper, VA, # 8 is a downhill 313 footer. I aced it!!! This was last summer. So probably a full, level throw downhill and playing my fade to the left. So probably 40 feet drop and, with...

Thanks Seedlings! Wife got me a Thrasher for Christmas but it's been cold here in the mid-Atlantic. Did take it out yesterday (made it all the way to 50 degrees! Woo hoo!) and it seemed pretty good. Supposed to hit 60 tomorrow so I'll give it more of a test. But, to your statement about how...

I have been playing only a couple of years. But great sport to get old guys (58) like me out for a walk! I know I should work on my game, but, ya know, I don't really want to "work" at it. I want to enjoy! Although playing better makes it more fun, I know. Anyway, it seems like no matter...
