South Central Ohio Disc Golf

 

If you like a challenge it is worth the drive. Sort of a cross between Banklick, though much tougher, and Idlewild, though not as long or as well groomed. The 2 holes that stick out are #6, 534 feet thru the woods along a footpath, no real fairway, and number 14, another 500+ that is really tough. There is a road to the left that is OB and sits about 20 feet above you and high weeds and woods to the right of a very narrow fairway. This narrow fairweay goes about 350 feet and then makes a 90 turn to the right for the last 200 feet to the basket. I played this course 2 years ago when I first started playing and got crushed. Now I think it would be a real challenge, though I'm still not sure it would be fun. It's definitely a tough course, but if you are up to the challenge it is worth the drive.

Played there Friday and yes its a whole other course. With foliage the fairways are even tighter. The course could use a little cleaning up but I think it will look good by tournament time.

With endorsements like those, how can I refuse. And it's a fundraiser, which makes it better.

I played it last year for the first time, casual round. Great time, great course. I too am going to see if I can make it.

Now that's a bit much Mr. Engle.

How funny is this. I have to OK this with my Mom. That is her birthday weekend and I can't miss out on any of that fun. You know, family first.

the course does not need to be cleared out...thats why these course's get easier

Yeah I'm planning on playing... just haven't signed up yet. Can't decide which division I want to play in.

am i missing something i cant find the reg list?? Can someone link it for me....

I can't decide... One minute I want to play Open the next minute I'm thinking about AM2.

Maybe I should stay in AM1 and hope to get a chance to play with the legend... Mr Engle :)

He's scared...

Does that mean you are playing Simpson? I'll be heading over Saturday morning to get a few practice rounds in...and then over to a hotel. Anyone know of a good place to have some barbeque and some good drinks in Chilly?

I know the registration list doesn't show that many people...but I know more than 6 more people that are heading that way...so it may get close to that 90 max.

The $5 Late fee will be charged Sunday morning if you are not preregistered and will go to the charity.
