3.00 star(s) Good course, but small Best use of the area they were given. I only had one issue navigating the first time, but the course map at the kiosk in the parking lot was excellent. I took a picture of it with my phone and referred to it only once. Its a multi-use park and the design kept the discs...

5.00 star(s) My Favorite Course... - Amazing layout: green grass + huge trees - Concrete teepads - Different elevation looks - Variety of open/flat to tight wooded holes - 27 holes (spring/summer) - Bright red rimmed baskets with huge red flags (awesome) - Recycle bins every couple holes - Great use of park...

3.50 star(s) Nice New Course -Variety - tight wooded to wide open holes, good use of the space given -Giant tee pads -Trash Cans every few holes - Few throwing conflicts with civilians for such a large course -Long course, which is great for what the Salem area was lacking -Poison Oak. God bless the crews...

Hole 14 at Whistler's Bend (OR) is most definetly a throw down the slope shot. The basket is the speck near the bush to the left of the guys head.

2.00 star(s) My Practice Course Uses most of the park space. Holes 2,3,6,7,8 are the best. I live in town, so I used this park when I was just starting out two years ago and was perfect for building confidence before hitting the much harder courses in the area. Whoever poured the concrete teepads had no...

3.50 star(s) Don't Underestimate This Course... - The best use of the property given - Used most discs in my bag - Trees, elevation, water, ditches, & raised baskets... - Good new signage on most baskets - Benches at all teepads - Lack of garbage cans - Some holes with no signs - Spotters absolutely...

I started doing crossfit about two months ago and I am both stronger and in better shape. I have now also went from throwing accurate decent drives to now flipping most of my discs. I know the flipping comes from strong arming and doubt that my discs all got understable on me that quick...

3.50 star(s) Challenging -Quite challenging, with a good mix of huge open holes with some unique forested holes and elevation changes. -Longest course in the area (now 8 par 4s ( as of May/13)). -Forrest holes more clear, with winter flooding clearing many logs from wooded fairways -Every hole has...

I went and focused on the shoulder turn and not being upright while practicing today. Most drives were consistently straight as an arrow. Also they glided for longer than I expected. Especially the putters. Wonderful, succinct video. Probably not for beginners, but for those who know the...

Is it an uphill approach at all? R-pro dart, straight up the gut, channeling Barry Schultz, hopefully.

About 2.5 years to crush 400+ drives. But I'd loose that in a second if it meant I was a better putter/decision maker.

Thanks for all the replies! So I played a casual round yesterday, hyzer flipping my putters with more snap and the ones that weren't wild traveled much farther than I would've thought. Field practice.... I second the Mako. I used to have one in my bag, but thought that I "outgrew it". I...

I played a round at newer 9 hole course at Takena Landing in Albany OR and walked into the small league run at noon on Thursdays. The course is mostly short tunnel type shots. I ended up playing in a group with Nate Sexton (probably the best pro disc golfer in the Pacific NW since Feldberg...

When your lovely, wonderful fiance gets you this for your Birthday (I found the right woman):

I second "Golf is not a game of perfect". I keep going back to it and I have improved and am enjoying the game much more. I came away with a couple mantras: 1. Always only play your next shot 2. Know your abilities and weaknesses 3. Don't get cute (or Don't be a hero) 4. Let the disc do the...
