Hidden Gem
I was very impressed with this recent (5/09-ish) addition to the Dayton, OH disc golf scene. The park was easy to find (I just "googled" Westbrook Park in Clayton, OH for directions), and a large, clear course map greeted us near the first tee.
The course offers a decent challenge...

It's fun to stay at the...
This course is set in a pretty park with abundant wildlife. In fact, before the disc course was opened on 5/5/09, I think the land was just a nature preserve where hikers/walkers could enjoy the flora & fauna.
I would rate the challenge level as just a tick more...

Night and Day
The back nine are challenging because they are tight and wooded, and force you to be techinically perfect. Also, there rarely seems to be heavy traffic at this course.
The front nine are too easy. Many of them are just a basket 200-250 ft. straight ahead with no obstacles. Get...

Cool Course, but Only 9 Holes :-(
This course offers nice scenery, a variety of holes, and a decent challenge.
It is located in a new, clean park with lots of other activites (i.e. lacrosse, soccer, brand-new baseball fields, sweet playgrounds for the kids, etc.). The city of Mason...

My Disc Golf Cradle
I am partial to this course because it is where I learned the game. I must have played "The Riff" 4 times per week during the 2004 & 2005 seasons. The course is a moderate challenge, and offers a good mix of birdie and bogey holes (playing everything as par 3). The pond...

Empty Course...Worth Playing
The best thing about Pride Park is a lack of traffic. I rarely see other golfers there, and never have to wait to tee off. This contasts nicely with some other course in the Cincinnati area (particularly Mt. Airy Forest) which are becoming very popular, and...

Work in Progress as of 4/11/09
This course has decent challenges and great scenery. Once you get into the woods holes (7 and beyond), the course improves tremendously. Also, two signature holes really impressed me. I cannot remember their numbers (and they may change anyway because the holes...
Food in Cincinnati
If you're in Cincinnati stop by Skyline Chili for our town's signature dish. This chain has lots of locations and serves a unique, beloved style of chili. The chili is served on top of spaghetti with cheddar and onions (a "four-way'), or on top of hot dogs ("coneys")...
I'll reiterate what most of the other posts have stated:
- Idlewild is heaven, especially this time of year.
- Banklick (recently renamed "Lincoln Ridge") is my next favorite course. There is a "clean up day" on 3/21 from 10:00 am - noon. Many disc golfers will be out there to show you...

3rd Best Course in Cincy Area
Mt. Airy Forest is an excellent disc golf course. Its even mix of long/short and wooded/open holes require players to master all aspects of the game. Also, several holes (#2, #13, and #15 in particular) feature significant elevation changes.
My favorite hole is...

So-so course...world-class rafting
This course is located on the site of Songer Whitewater, a company that gives whitewater rafting expeditions down the New River and Gauley River in West Virginia. The course itself is more like a complimentary feature to the Songer's expedition business and...

Rolling Hills...
This course is set in the Embshoff Nature Preserve 10 miles from downtown Cincinnati and the scenery is great. There are no billboards or gas stations around, just a grassy carpet covering rolling hills and strategically placed oaks & elms. The holes are situated in the middle...

Kind of run down...
This course is near others and could be included in a multi-course day.
Some of the holes offer challenging D, and trees. Nothing too nasty, but enough to make a difference if you're playing a close game with your buddies.
My major gripe with this course is that the...

Not Bad...Not Great
A.J. Jolly's best attribute is its proximity to other top-notch courses like Banklick and Idlewild. Of course, if you're in the area, you should play either of those before this one. The course is moderately challenging. I especially like #2 which dares you to throw...

The Grand-Daddy of Them All
This is one of the best courses in the world. It is very challenging and will punish mistakes. While the difficulty can be frustrating, it also forces you to improve your game. Also, your opponents will be facing the same challeneges so you can suffer together...

Another GREAT Cincy course
Very pretty environment. Decent flow. Boasts some of the coolest individual holes in the Cincy area. My particular favorites are the ones near the stream bed. One of them is 200+ ft. away down a steep hill, facing the stream. One bad roll and you could end up all...

True Dayton
Easy to follow layout...significant elevation changes...moderate challenge. The best thing about this course is the people who play there. True Dayton, OH disc golfers frequent this course and they are always friendly, never ornery (or as they say in Dayton..."awwww-nry").

Bucolic Splendor!
The scenery on this course is great. The course is situated in the middle of a large nature park so there are few signs of civilization. You are surrounded by trees and wildlife, a lake, and a grass-covered dam.
The course flows well and it is not too difficult to navigate...

Only if you're in Germantown...
This course is in Germantown, OH which is a scenic, country town. he course is situated on the Twin Ceek and the nearby water is nice.
Too short! Most of the holes are very similar: a short shot (125 - 200 ft.) through a dense forest. Also, we went early in...

Good, but not Great
The back nine are long(ish) with some interesting challenges, while the front nine offer some birdie opportunities. The lake adds to the aesthetic appeal of the course.
The front nine may actually be a little too easy for experienced players. Also, we saw lots of people on...
