I live in Finneytown and have been playing disc golf for over 5 years now. I enjoy playing at Winton Woods (5 min to the North), Harbin (15 min to the Northwest), Heritage (20-25 min to the Northwest), and Mt. Airy (15 min to the Southwest). While I know that these are probably the closest courses to where I live, I'd like to know if there are any other courses that are not too far away (less than a 30 min drive) that are worth checking out.

Idlewilde was freaking beautiful today. I had already played Boone in the heat of the day and decided to shoot one round at Idlewilde and is there a better DiscGolf Heaven anywhere? I shot an 81 and hurt some trees badly..and I do apologize to my wooded friends as they should know I wasn't aiming for them...but the course was in the best condition I can remember in many months. I actually took a 3 on 11 with the new basket placement and I think it makes it easier for me since I don't have to worry about the OB past the basket on a missed put...the OB behind the current basket is high enough that it doesn't really come into play for me. So....if you are from Cincy and you've never had your wild Idled...then what the winnie the pooh are you waiting for?

Thanks for the info. everyone... Looks like there's about a dozen or so more courses within 30-45 min. of me. Seems like I'll just have to use up a little gas to get to all of them.

Our goal has been to play as many as we can. We have been to Harbin, Heritage, Miami Whitewater, Gulley, Turtlecreek, Winton Woods, Woodland Mound, Boone Park, Banklick and want to do more. Would love to visit all the local courses. It is a great sport.

Oh yeah, and we have played Mt Airy as well. There are some really challenging courses and some just plain fun ones.
