Whats the best method for approaching the city to use a closed down city golf course fore disc golf. They are still watering it but the story is that the city couldnt afford to keep it open due to lack of attendence.

The first step would be to talk with the City Manager or Administrator. Ask what their long term goals/plans are for the property. If they're still watering the course, they might be playing on leasing it or selling it to another entity.

There's a nine-hole golf course in Clayton, GA. Used to be run by the city now it is run by Rabun County. The courses has been losing money for years. I talked with the city years ago about funding a Disc Golf course to help increase revenue. Now I'm talking with the county.

Anyway...once you find out what the plans for the property are, you'll better be able to decide the best way to go.
