| Original course | Course description: | Winchester City Park Disc Golf Course was one of the very first disc golf courses installed in Tennessee. The 9-hole course was installed in 1979 and Wham-O Frisbees were used exclusively for years until modern golf discs were developed. The course has nice rolling hills, is mown often and the Mach-1 baskets are still in good shape, but the original tee pads are very short and have deteriorated badly. Several holes require a run-up beside the tee pads due their insufficiency. Winchester DGC still plays like a Wham-O course with extremely short, open fairways and several older-growth groves of trees. Though it cannot compare with newer, longer courses, it is ***truly outstanding*** as a practice course for short drives and mid-to-long approach shots of every kind. Locals still play Winchester quite often and the layout is tricky enough to offer a reasonable challenge despite the shorter nature of the fairways. | › | Winchester City Park Disc Golf Course was one of the very first disc golf courses installed in Tennessee. The original 9-hole course was installed in 1979 and Wham-O Frisbees were used exclusively for years until modern golf discs were developed. The course was redesigned in 2015 and expanded to 19 holes. The fairways are a good mix of open, partly wooded and wooded fairways. The park is well manicured and offers pavilions, several restrooms and is set beside Tims Ford Lake. | Approve · Reject |

| Original course | Course description: | One of the very first disc golf courses in Tennessee. I played this course (my first also) with high school buds several days after it opened and have never looked back. The listed establish date (1989) is incorrect as I started playing it a couple of years before graduating HS In '81. 1979 would be more accurate. Wham-O Frisbees were used exclusively for years on this course until modern golf discs were developed. It still plays like a Wham-O course with extremely short, open fairways. Though Winchester Park does not compare with longer, newer courses, it is truly outstanding as a well-kept practice course for mid-to-long approach shots of every kind. It is also still a great course for bustin' out the Wham-Os for a nostalgia round! If you're traveling through Franklin County, stop by and give it a heave. Its still quite enjoyable to play! | › | Winchester City Park Disc Golf Course was one of the very first disc golf courses installed in Tennessee.
