I hope to be there for league play tomorrow. This would be the time I take pics to put up on the DGS course info page. As the folks looking for some remote view of the courses in advance of AM Worlds will be expecting the courses to be described as "original" and "championship", I will help if the person authorized to edit the course page revises the "info" page to show the 2 courses by those titles. It would also help to see the hole distances so I can show those on the pics.

Course info is being updated, sorry for the delay.
John Triezenberg May 16, 2015 at 6:11am
Is spinskis open for play during weekends? Trying to get some info...
Any info would be appreciated

Here are the pictures I took when I went to the course April 30th: https://goo.gl/fX5MW2
I tried to get a good view of every fairway - sorry the pictures arent named according to hole number.

Not at all. I will definitely get some more pictures once the pads are in and post them up on a new album

Does anyone know the schedule for the league here? Looking to play the Championship course on the league day. Didn't know if you have to play the course for leagues or what.

We play league on Thursday with sign in from 4-6, but not out on the championship course until it dries up a little more. I will talk with Jon on Thursday & get you more info. There is a$5 pay to play for those that show up out there to play.

I played it a couple weeks ago and plan on going back this week to check it out again. Jon seemed pretty open to us playing as long as we make the $5 per player donation for course maintenance.
Simon Porritt April 27, 2015 at 9:45pm
Just checking to see if the course is open for worlds practice at this time, planning a trip to the area tomorrow? Thanks!

If you are planning on hitting multple courses, there are leagues at Oshtemo starting around 4 and the course gets pretty packed. Also Spinski's has a league you can probably pay the daily fee to run the course with someone if you have trouble tomorrow.

Spinki's league is thursdays, Oshtemo Tuesday, ViRA Monday, Coldbrook Thurs I think. Three Rivers should be easy to play any time

Its been more than two years since I played and reviewed the original course. Now that droves of players (and me) will be coming to practice and play in the World AMs courses, I have a renewed interest in Spinski's. Showing the playing opportunities on the Events tab will help. Where the Original course is slated for the 60+ and junior divisions I am eager to revise my 2012 review with reflections on the survive-ability of the course. To help give a sporting lift to our out-of-state friends I'd be happy to fill the blanks with a decent set of pics for both courses.

I have to "own" some of the "scary" impressions people will have when looking at this course page. The page administrators might avoid confusion by resolving the stated "One course-36 holes" with the PDGA's notice of an "Original" and "Champion" course.
Dave Davies March 31, 2015 at 5:57pm
If someone would be willing to show me the course with the owners permission sometime that would be great, I am more than happy to make a donation to the course or pay your league fee for the day if that's the only time we can do it.

Hi. We will be out there for league on Thursday, with sign in from 4 (maybe 3:30) to 6PM SHARP. Other than that, Niel &/or I will talk with Jon and see what he says. I or Niel will contact you back to let you know what the best option will be for you.

We will be having an open meeting for the 2015 Am Worlds at the Family Center for the Arts on Sunday the 11th at 6pm. The address is 6136 South Westnedge, Portage, MI. It is in the backside of Southland Mall (behind Kohl's).
We need some more people stepping up to take on roles. We have some specific jobs that need to get done. There are a lot of things that we will hopefully be announcing in the next few weeks. Please come out and learn what you can do to be part of this awesome event!! We will have pizza and beverage too!

We will be having open meetings for the 2014 PDGA Amateur World Championships Presented by Bell's Brewery, Wednesday October 15th and Sunday October 19th both at 6:30pm at the Holiday Inn West in Kalamazoo, MI. We are looking for people that are interested in helping with course improvements, fundraising, and filling some coordinating positions and willing to run some of the individual activities that happen during the week. If you are really interested in helping out and taking on some responsibility for the Worlds, please attend either one of these meetings!!!

Lost a bright orange DX Starfire deep in the rough between 5 and 6 on the front course. I know there's a box for lost discs there, but I'm not exactly close to the course. If anyone sees it in the rough or in the box feel free to grab it for me and give me a call. Number is on the disc
Jeremy Kellogg May 13, 2014 at 9:43pm
Would love to play the course, message me so know the best way to contact owner.

If you are unable to play a Thursday night round, you can also try contacting Spinski's Disc Golf Pro Shop to speak with someone that can provide you times that you can get out to the course.
Fred Vocino June 17, 2013 at 8:12pm
West Michigan games are happening this weekend (6/22&23) at Earl Brewer. I'm good for it. Post on the tournament page to build interest in the next few days.
Blake Walters July 26, 2012 at 12:31am
Is there an address to the course? Would love to come and play tomorrow as I have just moved to the area. Thanks
Niel Stoppa II March 30, 2012 at 9:12pm

Niel Stoppa II July 15, 2010 at 5:07am
Ace Race tournament is scheduled for August 7. Get to spinski's pro shop and get signed up before all spots are gone!!

If you use udisc android app you can map the course using GPS plot points for teepad, bend-point, basket which will give you decent distances and let future players utilize the mapping. another option is enable GPS tagging on your phone and the pictures will automagically have GPS that you can use for distances
Wow...I am behind the times, though: flip-phone and android tablet. I will check out app store anyway.
