COMMENTS/SUGGESTIONS
Best course resource on the internet. I go to DGCourseReview before I go to the PDGA site. Much more informative!

Disc Golf Center rules because you can pick exact color and weight of your discs. That is very important to me. That was the reason for me going there and when I saw that there was free shipping...game over!!!

Thanks!

2 Favorite Courses​

Centennial Park, Lawrence Kansas
(http://www.lawrence.com/places/centennial_park/)
(http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=653)
I mainly like this course because of its terrain, which is very hilly, and they have lots of trees, both which make it fun, and difficult. This course is set up for right over-hand, but i play left over-hand and do well.

Tuttle Creek River Pond, Manhattan Kansas (Country Stampede)(http://www.smithzone.com/flyingdisk/riverpond.htm)
I LOVE this course because it is on the lake and is pretty open for the most part. It does have its variety of big trees with a few cedars, but the course is set up with some of the trees in the way, so you have to think strategically. Some of the holes are difficult because your disc may just end up in the lake if youre not careful =O The terrain is fairly flat, with nicely mowed grass.

Favorite Discs​

Disc-Craft Surge
Disc Craft Pro D Force

Favorite Sites​

Obviously DGCourseReview.com. I like this site because if me and the guys ever road trip, even if its only an hour away we look up the closest courses, and this is the #1 site we use. and everyones gotta love Youtube.com

Suggestions​

I always love checking out new courses everywhere i go whenever we take roadtrips, you should do the same if you happen to be passing through north-east kansas and check out both of these courses.

4) DGCR..pretty much the best site for checking out courses..I really like how there are pictures of most holes on most courses.

Favorite courses:
Magnolia DGC This course made me addicted to DG. The course is difficult with the Blue tees being at pro level and reds are fun for those starting out. A major plus for this course is, it is located at one of my favorite places to hear music. A disc golf course at a festival location is heaven for me.

Ocala Greenway DGC is a great course that actually feature some elevation changes, which in Florida is a hard thing to find. There are 24 holes here the only thing it lack is water and better signs.

Favorite Discs:
Star Wraith
Star Valkyrie

Favorite Sites:
Of Course
And Slashdot.org

Suggestions:
Keep up the great work. Everyone should bring one new player to the game every month.

Love the site, you do a great job. My friends and I drive from Ohio to California, used this site to find all the courses that we wanted to play. Keep up the good work. Couple suggestions, one is an area to keep track of aces. Another would be to add an area for videos, my friends and I take a video camera and record a lot of our rounds. Helps to correct technique and track down any stray discs.

Terrible Twos??

It's amazing that DGCR is only 2 yrs old considering how old the sport is. I'm glad that Tim had the wherewithal to create such a wealth of information & a well-rounded source of connectivity in the name of DG. I can't think of anything better than to applaud Tim & all the DGCR folks for providing such a privilege - I congrat them on a successful 2 years & please applaud them with me as they eye the future with no end! It is an honor to be a part of & support DGCR!!!

+ I gotta give homage to my hometown course, even though it's a most challenging place to play: Universal City, Texas City Park & I just played it for the first time and aside from my personal attraction to/memories of the course, it is a truly nice place to play: Blendon Woods Metro Park in Westerville, Ohio

+ I have truly enjoyed throwing an Innova Champion Beast driver as well as my Discraft Pro D Banger-GT putter, both at 175g weights.

+ Disc Golf Course Review truly stomps the competition DG stats/forum sites. Of course, you can't unseat the pedestal of PDGA.com, but IMHO, DGCR is to PDGA as Adidas is to soccer. .
To no one's surprise, my 2nd favorite site to use is Facebook.

+ COMMENTS/SUGGESTIONS: It's a pain to enter scores on each hole. It would be nice when entering scores that the cursor automatically move down to the next score box. The tab key already skips boxes horizontally, so implementing the arrow keys to move up or down a column would be a big help as well. Whatever the preference of data entering order, this would eliminate having to physically click in the next box or tab endlessly when you only want to input scores.

Favorite Courses:

Lackland Outdoor Adventure Center Disc Golf

Boerne City Lake Park DGC

Favorite Discs:

Innova Eagle (oh I know, it's so boring!) and Discraft Buzzz

Favorite Sites:

Right here
and Disc Golf United for the handicapping.

If this site had handicapping, I would never need any other DG site. I love the detail on the reviews, the links and maps, the photos, and the map browser is the best! I've used all the resources of this site to find places to play and get comfortable enough that I could go somewhere I'd never played because I studied the courses here first.

I'm definitely trying to contribute to the community, with several reviews. I've put up 2 reviews on courses that had none, and just really enjoy this site and all the work you guys put into it. I hope I can give back a little bit and help DG grow in San Antonio.

PLEASE PICK ME! FORE DISC'S SAKE!

My two favorite courses are De La Veaga in Santa Cruz, CA and Hellyer in San Jose, CA. Both are close to home and offer a wide range of hole difficulties!

My two favorite discs are the Innova Champion Starfire and the Innova Pro Sidewinder. They are both consistent drivers that I can count on!

My two favorite disc golf websites are dgcoursereview.com (of course!) and innovadiscs.com!

I only wish EVERY disc golfer would use dgcoursereview to report found and lost discs - it would make things SO much easier!

Two Favorite Courses:

El Parque de la Raza, San Jose CA:

My home course and the best 9 hole course in the world (Technical and contains subtle beauty).

Black Mouse, Felton CA:

Amazing redwood forest, fun DGC!

2 discs:
Innova Valkyrie (control and distance)
Innova Aviar (the best disc in disc golf!)

2 sites:
dgcoursereview: thanks for the most useful site in disc golf! Hands-down! You cannot beat a site that can take you on an adventure to hundreds of courses!
Innova.com: one of the cleanest interfaces and helpful sites for disc selection. Their web designers should do other companies' sites.

Suggestions:
With time, the interface for e-mails, threads, etc. may be cleaned up a little. Other than that, the site is great! It is my favorite site! I love the map course tracker. I have gone to many new courses based on your site. The site pushes me to travel more and play new courses. Bravo!

Happy Birthday DGCR!

My two favorite courses are:

Pier Park in Portland, OR and Peaks View in Lynchberg, VA. I loved the ACE opportunities on the little mountain there.

Currently, my two favorite discs are:

My trusty 162g. Sidewinder and my 166g. Disccraft Avenger.

My two favorite websites are DGCR and Home exchange.com .

And I guess if I could get one thing change here, I might ask the scoreboard have a feature making it easier to enter your scores. Entering each hole individually is too time consuming. Could it be made to automatically enter par for each hole? And then the only holes one would have to enter would be those holes you birdied or bogeyed.
