its not the prettiest job,but i put a clamp above and below the weld.it wont fall anymore.it still needs an outer ring for the loose chains.1 ring is missing,and one is wire.

paying money to run a league is ****ing retarded. only fully established leagues can actually generate a profit.

That seems like a deterrent to using the park...but also makes me want to start a league just to see how they would plan on enforcing it...if we paid their league fee you think they would open the gates in the winter? What if there was a tournament scheduled? Would we have to walk from the front gate?

Ed what you heard is not a rumor. I was just here yesterday and there is a new letter in the bulletin board saying all tournaments will cost $350. There was also something mentioning if you wanted to start a league there would also be some sort of cost

Really surprised to be saying this...I went out and played the other day and I have to agree with Brandon. I wouldn't be opposed to seeing 6 holes come out and the remaining 18 be better maintained...

Another thing I wouldn't mind seeing addressed is a rumor I heard that the Parks Department wants $450 just to have a tournament there, not counting pavilion rental or any other costs...

put a sign for the walkers both ways for hole 6 and just play 8 and 15 from shorts only, just sayin .

I'm in agreement with Doug on this, there's less expensive ways to kep this course a 24...but to play devil's advocate, let's say holes 6 and 8 are taken bc of danger, fine. Hole 15 hasn't had a tee pad i how long, and there's prolly not good spot to put it, it'll just wash away agin. then you have the backtrack to hole 19 or 20 I believe it is, way out away from all the other holes, and you have to walk the actual hole to get there. If removing 6 baskets allow the parks dept, which has already ... more

Some signs saying "Caution: Disc golf course - flying discs in area" would be a cheap investment. I've never had a problem with 6, and I think it's open enough that golfers can see walkers/bikers. On hole 8 maybe just chop some of the bushes to the left of the pad.

So move those two teepads on the other side of the path. Don't pull six baskets because they ran the walking path through the middle of the disc golf course...Hole 8 is one of the "iconic" Riverbends holes, at least to me.

Are they pulling 6 baskets from the course?
