There is no doubt that Hornet's Nest is a great course. I just played in the Charlotte Open a month or so ago there and had a blast. Very challenging. The par 5 #12 is one of my favorite holes ever. The Charlotte Disc Golf Club website is absolutely awesome as well.

Best as in, "what courses should I be kicking myself in the rear for not playing b/c they're absolutely a blast" I thoroughly enjoyed Hornet's Nest more than Renny (original) cause Renny killed me, if that tells you anything. And I guess I can wipe Bracket's Bluff off that list *wipes tear from face*

Reedy Creek's stout layout is fun. So is the Skillborne layout.

Any chance these videos from the top of the thread are still lying around anywhere?

I played Kilborne today for the first time in probably 17-18 years and wanted to compare the old layout to what is there now. It's almost as if the course has been completely redesigned from the course I learned to play on.

They're on the individual course pages on this site.

 

[SpainKiller]

Says the video doesn't exist on the Kilborne one.

 

[DiscGolfCraig]

Don't remember one for Kilborne, not that it doesn't exist. You could reach out to the source.

There was a video for Veterans Park. Now that's a blast from the past.
