Shortest holes ever

Nims Park in Rock Falls IL

I've driven by it and it is a square of park and you can see all 18 newish discatchers from any spot in the park. It's rediculous when the awsome course, Sinnissippi Park, in Stirling, is a mile away and could use some new baskets!

This course is a real trip! I played it this summer as a warmup for Sinnisippi. Standing at any given tee you can see at least 3 baskets. Someone spraypainted hole #s and arrows on the trees to avoid confusion. Average hole length is ~110'. I agree that the baskets would be better used elsewhere.

this course is an ace race http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=3455&mode=hi

Do you normally throw a putter or midrange for something that short?

Anything under 150ft is a putter for me.

Young's Run (Warren, Ohio) Original Course #5 was 79 foot. One player shot an 11 in a tournament refusing not to lay-up, going strong with many bad breaks. Basket sits on a steep slope.

that has got to be embarrassing

Lake Murray Lodge has some water in play, if I remember correctly. Also, I enjoy playing the old saucer baskets. 4 courses played/three states (with saucer baskets). Course is also kind of unique in a beachy/sandy way. Little bit of possible window breakage possibility just to scare ya a little. Sad to say that I've given a little props to two courses mentioned in this thread. But, because they were just TOO CUTE, I like this one and Nims Park better than tons of little, craptastic niners that are "more normal."

Lol they should just switch the baskets between the two parks :hfive:

Alexandria DGC has no hole info on here but there is a hole thats about 40ft and the half of the holes there have to be 50ft-75ft.

There is a course here at the Ohio State University and hole #16 is really short. It used to be 195ft. but they shortened, almost by half, and never changed the sign. Here is a pic from the tee, you can see the basket just past that big tree.

Tourist Park in Cedar Falls, IA has two that are under 175'

Wehr's Dam/Covered Bridges in Orefield, PA has the 12th hole, a straight downhill tee shot at 120 feet. The third hole is maybe a buck fifty with a tight uphill turn. The 6th is maybe a little over 100, but it has a huge rock in front of it.

River walk in Riverside California has hole #1 85ft!

 

[Danger]

^Mills Park in Carson has an 83 foot hole. That is officially my shortest ever lol.

Winsor DGC in Coos Bay, Oregon is sadly short. One hole is definitely under 100'. GWillim reviewed it as first con... 85 footer (it's in the pictures as hole#4 perhaps) I sorta remember: it was a little down hill even, but with guardian trees.

What's a few feet among friends...

Olorin,

Just to set the record straight, Rutgers # 9 is 104 feet in length. I'm the one who measured the whole course (with a measuring wheel - not as good maybe as a laser, but what the heck). Their existing sign numbers (from god knows when) are REALLY goofy in some cases and spot on in others (go figure). People are now in the midst of "re-signing" the course (with accurate numbers).

Ps: You DO have Chimney Rock's # 5 correct (I measured that one too).

[Cgkdisc]

[Dfwdscglfr]

[Apothecary]
