CWare, Edman, or any other Round Rockers, do y'all know what this course is looking like right now? The Hitman tried to play it a couple of months ago and said the grass on the fairways of 1 and 2 were taller than the rough. :eek:

We had 15 players, 8 ams, 7 pro

not muddy at all. Hole # 1 tee under water basket # 2 under water. Fairway # 7 dead limbs keft side could be moved. At leat 2 people I tried by myself but could not. Need to call Wendys and see if they will tow or not. Talked with some golfers on the course and they said they have parked there 5-6 times with no problems.
This is a sweet course! First time I ever played it. Lots of tight holes...you have to hit your line (or get lucky :p) Not too much of an ego booster for cdub or chile, but I took it to em... :D
Josh +1; 7 skins
Jerry +4; 7 skins
Chris +4; 4 skins

Vinnie can get pretty creative with those tee boxes, what you practice today might change by this weekend. I've seen it all when a guy thumbed 16 between the branches, of course he was 30 deep with no putt.
Being my first time out, I dont know what boxes were played in the past, but with the changes going on out there, no telling where Vinnie and Ed will place the tees...
seewhere
Mar 02 2005, 01:18 PM
# 10 looks very interesting with the walking trail there now. that hole will have to change after someone gets hit. OUCH
where will # 3 tee be and will we play the little hole after # 3 like last year?

Edman and I spent sometime with Georgetown Parks feller and AMEN....the sidewalk is done!
And now we know the direction of disc golf at Rivery.
The city has blessed us with more land to correct the issue.
The city wants a course in that park and they will do what it takes to make sure that happens.
We are currenty reviewing land on the back of the course. This land looks like a Waco beast with HUGE boulders and a cliff through it. The plan is to have it done before State Doubles.
GOOD TIMES!!!!
very nice!
Look forward to playing the new layout...
Gotta hand to you two, V-man and Edman....always stepping up!!

Not bad for the first attempt, eh? The actual one will be round or oval, and brushed to remove all of the stray pieces. Any ideas? Move the dragon over to the left a little to allow more room for :)higher :) numbers? :D

course update as per Ed Coffey:
"Update on the Rivery- All 18 baskets are still in, the city never pulled them and is very playable, city has been keeping up with it. Except for the red headed step child holes 1 and 2. If you play this course send spotters out on all holes that throw over the path, bikers are rampant out there.
I received approval from the city to redesign 7 holes. We will loose the following holes-1,2,3,10,12,13,and 18. Hole 4 will be #1 and #17 will be eighteen(no over the top shots). Where hole 3 sits now is where the parking lot and restrooms will be. I can't imagine parking and walking 100ft to the first hole, Me and V are starting the redesign today, what an awesome day(sorry Mike). I'll update all early next week. The goal-have the re-design done and playable by TX STATE PRO DUBS." :D
that better ware?? :p

Dec 13 2005, 12:58 PM
That's excellent news.
When you say "lose" holes, do you mean that the total number of holes will be reduced from 18, or just that those are the holes being redesigned/moved (and there will still be 18 holes)?

Me and V accomplished what we set out to do on Sat. I don't have a confirmed date on when I meet with the city for the proposal. There is some really cool land out there on the other side of Rivery rd. This little course will lengthen slightly but still be as tight, the best of both worlds.
