Could somebody give me directions to the fort smith courses coming from fayetteville?

From the PDGA Course Directory....

Ben Geren

Tilles

Alma

does that work, or do you need more detailed?

ChrisEads · Jul 30 2008, 05:43 PM

Get off on exit 20 or 21 from fayetteville just look for the sign to fort smith and then take exit 7 to fort smith and then take exit 11 or zero street once on the exit ramp turn left onto zero you will then follow on zero until you get to ben garen park on your right hand side take the second entrance into the park and follow the signs to the disc golf park but really you will want to stay left the whole way into the park and then once you get past the baseball fields you should start to see baskets on your left and right and once you see those keep going until you see a small parking lot on your left pull in there and you will be looking at either hole 1 or hole 10 depending on which way you park but you can figure it out from there.

MattScott · Jul 31 2008, 01:16 AM

thanks guys, I dont you wafda fellas to have too much of an upper hand come HOTB

ChrisEads · Jul 31 2008, 12:16 PM

Well us wafda guys have decided to remove all baskets and tee signs until the day of HOTB so that way only we shale know where the pin placements are. And if any out of towners would like i would gladly show you the wrong positions so that way it makes it even easier on us.

keep in mind that there are 2 pin positions for each hole, locations are on the tee signs

also keep in mind that we have secret landing zones and routes that foreigners must wear blindfolds up to game day while the locals shoot those routes, if you saw them, you could never be allowed to leave again

evandmckee · Jun 15 2009, 06:35 PM

I'd suggest moving them to longer or more difficult positions

actually, they've been where they are for so long you could probably move every one of them and people would dig it

then start just moving 2 every Saturday
