~DG Philosophy ~
* First and foremost, disc golf is meant to be fun. Although I am competitive by nature, to me it is about getting out into nature and enjoying the great outdoors!
* I started playing this wonderful sport in May of 2000 at the famous De La Veaga in Santa Cruz, CA. Since then, I have accumulated over 250 courses in 13 states, 3 countries and counting...
* My favorite type of courses are those that grow with age. Being able to shoot \"lights out\" every time on the course, to me, lacks creativity and challenge and therefore loses its luster quickly. Courses that continue to challenge me, revealing new routes and approaches over time, make me want to come back and play time and time again.
* Considering I like to travel, navigation plays a factor in my ratings. If I am spending as much time looking for the next hole as playing it, then there is a major flaw with the course design/layout. I don\'t expect a course to hold me by the hand, but do expect the course to flow in proper harmony whether it be by the use of signs, next tee markers, tape on the basket, etc.
~ DGCR Criteria ~
