4.00 star(s) Nice course This course made for a very enjoyable round of golf. Some friends and I were in the area and decided to give it a try. The facilities were good. Tee pads were very nice. Signage was quite good. There's a nice mix of wooded and open holes, but there are a few holes with very...

3.50 star(s) Very fun course to play Swinging DB's is a super fun course. It is a bit quirky, but is easy to play and offers some personality that no other courses in the area offer. Here are my pros: - Navigating the course couldn't be easier. Just follow the bright orange arrows and you won't get lost...

2.50 star(s) Not a bad winter course Mostly short holes with some personality. A couple of blind tee shots that are fun. Baskets are in good shape. Edit: We returned yesterday as a tournament was being played at Kentwood. This is a fun winter course. With the weeds dead, it is much more playable and...

3.50 star(s) Fun, tight course This course is a perfect companion to the next door Cedarock course. It is short, tight and (except for the long 17th hole) heavily wooded. The course is in great shape. Tee boxes are concrete and plenty big. The baskets are all in perfect condition and the course has...

3.00 star(s) A nice companion to Wellspring Cedarrock is a nice companion to the adjacent Wellspring course. It offers mostly wide open disc golf where Wellspring is a tight, typical North Carolina course. Pros - Some long open holes that let you throw for distance. - Some decent elevation changes on many...

2.50 star(s) Fun but confusing (and maybe a little dangerous) This course has some fun, unique holes, but it is super confusing to navigate, even with the UDISC app. The wife, kids and I played over the weekend from the (VERY short) red tees. We had fun, but struggled quite a bit. Pros: - Some fun holes...

4.00 star(s) Beautiful NC course We made the approximate hour drive from Apex to East Clayton to try out this course. It was well worth the drive. Pros: - Perfectly maintained park with ample bathroom facilities and good signage. - Since we played in December, there were no leaves on the trees or much...

4.50 star(s) One fo the top Triangle area courses This is one of the best of the best courses in the Triangle area of North Carolina. Until yesterday, it was my favorite area course. I'm afraid with the arrival of Diavolo, Rock Ridge drops to a close second. It's a bit of a trek to get there from the RDU...

4.00 star(s) Best we've played in the area We played Buckhorn for the first time yesterday and were blown away. The course is in great condition. They've done great job of clearing underbrush on most holes (don't throw left on the first hole though). There's a nice mixture of hole types. Some with many...

3.00 star(s) Good variety, but needs work The UNC course has so much potential, but comes up short in many ways. Here are some pros: - Very nice variety of holes. Many typical North Carolina tight wooded holes, but also quite a few wide open holes as well. - Nice use of elevation changes on many holes -...

3.00 star(s) Fun neighborhood course Cedar Hills is a mostly tight, pretty fun course. Some pros: - Definitely a mature course. Not a lot of underbrush, but not quite as cramped as Kentwood - Mostly short holes, but there are a few mixed in where you can throw for distance. - One water hole that is a...

I ended up going with the 24-chain Yaheetech basket on Amazon for $64. So far it's worked great and is much lighter than my home made basket. Seems pretty solid. The flag pops out pretty easy if you hit it with a disc, but it's easy to put back on. I bring it in the garage overnight, so...

4.50 star(s) Going to be an Elite course! The course opened today so the family went and played the "front 11." We absolutely loved it. Here are the pros - Signs by the blue and white tee pads are the best I've ever seen. They show a detailed map with the trees where they are. They also show the...
