I will be in Denver this week and have one day to play. I will only have the chance to play one, maybe two courses, what is the best? I am an intermediate level player looking for a challenge.

Also, I will be making the trip to Grand Junction along I-70. Is the course in Vail worth stopping for, or is there something better I should play?

Any help to make my Colorado Disc Golf experience is appreciated.

My vote would be for Badlands in Federal Heights and/or the Johnny Roberts course in Arvada. Info on both can be found at milehighdiscgolf.org on the "Courses" page. Also, if you check out the website, you will see that there are 6 different scheduled tag matches on weeknights plus Sunday doubles. Feel free to join the locals at any of those events (no tag necessary to play along). Otherwise, if you you post when and where you want to play, there is a good chance someone will meet up with you and offer to show you the course.

happy hukkin'

Also Paco Sanchez, Lakewood dry gulch course in Denver. If you are looking for one course to play along I-70 I would reccomend Vail or Winter Park if you have a lot of time. Copper and Frisco are not open this year are else I would recommend them. Also Glenwood Springs has a pretty cool course but with Vail you get to ride the gondola to the top and play

ATTENTION ALL LADY DISC GOLFERS

OK, LISTEN UP LADIES. I am trying to help here. I am beginning to wonder if the ladies of disc golf really want to promote this sport or just gripe about the low numbers of women players. I have issued a challenge on other threads to help those who want to help themselves. RESULTS, the board went quiet. My wife and I are trying to build a disc golf resort near tulsa, oklahoma. We are not disc golfers but we love the sport and the disc golf community as a whole. We are absolutely putting our money where our mouth is. We have had the honor of having our course played by some very good women players, including Courtney Peavey and Valerie Jenkins. As newcomers to the sport, I do my research by surfing other clubs discussion boards and try to ascertain needs of the sport where we might be able to fill a niche. To that end, we are willing to host an all women's tournament with some substantial added money (depending on the number of entries). All I hear from women is their concern about the lack of competition or female competitors. It is obvious to me that we need to raise the bar for women in this sport. If there is genuine concern for this sport by enough ladies, then we are here to help you, ladies, raise the bar. If it is just a venue for negative comments then, count us out. Any ladies want to do something positive and good for ladies disc golf. The ball is now in your court. Jim Taylor, owner, The Lodge in Pawhuska, Ok. 918-724-3121.
