1.50 star(s) You'll find better Very wooded and tight, a nice change of pace. Poorly maintined. They hope to charge players $2/day to play it (as of summer 2007), laughable. The park costs several dollars to enter if you don't reside in Fairfax County. The teepads are small and aged. The baskets are...

I have two: Blue Valley #3 (Kansas City, MO), 700' of uphill, many blockers that I've never even 5'd, much less par at 4. Blue Valley #9: 936' of brutality across a valley/uphill/dogleg right, gotten a 5 once.

4.50 star(s) Kansas City's signature course and a must play. Challenging, with decent length and sweet elevation changes. Good layout with many alternate pin locations, giving the course good variety. Good mix of open and wooded. The view of downtown Kansas City heading toward the 14th basket is great as...

3.00 star(s) Good for first timers, or a quick warm up for the big course Excellent for novice players looking to gain control, easy targets. Good for experienced players to warm up on with a putter before playing the big course. Location. Dogs

5.00 star(s) Blue Vallue is a World Class course and a must play when in Kansas City Excellent sign posts/maps for every hole. Unique Tee Pads shaped in the direction of the drive. Short Cemet pads for bags etc... Challenging for all skill levels. Great views, the course is a 4.2 mile walk in all, very long...

Three things that come to my mind: Everyone that she's competing against played the same layout. There's no luck in this sport, simply good kicks and bad kicks. There's a time and place for everything, during and at the event was not that time. While she made some very good points as a...

Still gotta go with the champ, there's something about the way he can endure the pressure that gives him an edge in events like these. If not the champ, I'd say Borgamel.

Im gonna jump in and say thanks for that advice, I've been throwing my putter a lot more lately anyway on the advice i got from someone at league night. I HAVE been discouraged by those big KC courses, I just moved there from Northern Va where the courses are short, small and in the woods...

Blue Valley Park in Kansas City, 18 holes at more than 11k feet. A true monster.

Oh yeah, I'm going to be moving there in less than 2 weeks! I'll be living just north of the river about 5 miles from Waterworks :)

A heavy dx stingray is my choice. A beat up stratus is also a good one and I've never gone wrong with a DX leopard. New they're stright, used they turn more, beaten they hyzer flip great and and are easy to roll at the end of their life.

It's a bit of both, it just feels like my hand is more 'over' the disc, but the release did feel good and really took off on me a couple of times with what seemed to be less effort. Puts me into a spot of sorts, If I continue to grip as I was, some discs especially the larger diamater ones like...

I've been playing for about 11 months now. I started with a DX Leopard/Shark/Aviar set. I've gone through countless drivers and all the different types of plastic and I'm pretty much back to all DX now for my discs with the exception of my headwind drivers. I would recommend sticking with...

I throw RHBH Not long ago, I posted a question about a blister/callous problem I was having on the base of my index finger. It was suggested to me that this was caused by the disc slipping out as opposed to ripping out. Now this week there's been a couple of grip threads and the one thing I...

I failed to 'place' a disc into the basket a couple of weeks ago, parked it for deuce for sure, but when I put the disc into the chains and let go, it sprang out. Worse than the Barry Schultz 2005 USDGC shot for sure :( Lesson learned!
