Having both courses a couple times, I came back and realized that everyone is posting in the course design forum.

I know these are still being tweaked and will undoubtedly get better so I wanted to start a thread for the new additions to the disc golf arena in Texas. So let's get to posting.

You beat me to it. Once everything was finalized I was going to start a new thread tomorrow advertising the weekly mini's.

Come back tomorrow! :D

Brian

cool how much is entry? saturdays or sundays? will we play both courses? will we have dubs after the mini? morning or afternoon? what hole will i start on? :D

Simmer down there.........talking about Saturday afternoons, singles mini, could be one of many courses..........we do have 36 holes that can loop together in many different ways :D.

Oh yeah, you start on hole 12 of the Coyote course :D

**** that's where i started both rounds on the coyote during big show :p

Hole 12 is not a nice place to start the old men on either course, and that's where I was all weekend.

I didn't do hole assignments, but I've seen this happen at almost every event. Maybe we (the TD's) need to rethink the system of the top Pro card always starting on hole #1 after the 1st round.

Group golf this Saturday at 10:00. Who's in? :D

This is nothing official, just people getting together and playing some golf and having some fun.

I'll open the gate around 9 so I can start getting just a little bit of work done on a couple of areas but then it is all golf, no more work.

Everyone is welcome.

Brian

John,Mace, Gary S. and myself will be there. Sandals?Smurph?

Group golf this Saturday at 10:00. Who's in?




Ditto what Doggy said. Family business Sat. evening is keeping me from going to Waco. We are so blessed to have a 36 hole complex in DFW!!!! Thanks for making this happen. Nice baskets too! Who pointed you in that direction :D

**** brian i'm almost tempted to skip waco :p god i love cedar hill ( lorch park) i've noticed for the most part everyone seems to be respecting the courses also.

If it's sunny, I'll be there after work tomorrow, around 5:30. Do you think there will be some one there to play with at that hour?

now what a minute Frank,, what about the BBD, he sure was abusing the trees this past weekend :D

**** brian i'm almost tempted to skip waco :p god i love cedar hill ( lorch park) i've noticed for the most part everyone seems to be respecting the courses also.



Frank - go support the Texas 10. Besides, I think the trees and beavers are safer with you out of the city. We've all seen you throw. :eek:

Enjoy.

Brian

now what a minute Frank,, what about the BBD, he sure was abusing the trees this past weekend :D



Was the Big Black Dog in town this weekend? I thought he was moving from PA to CT this weekend.

Big Bald Dummy :D

LMAO!!! I didn't know we had another BBD!

Big Bald Dummy :D



YO, JOSH! They're talking about you. :o:p

<font color="red"> </font> Effective immediately, parking is not allowed along the fence line near hole 2 at Lorch Park. :mad:

<font color="black"> </font> I had a meeting with the city last night where I learned that they just installed No Parking signs along the roadway on hole 2. There have been several citizen complaints about the amount of cars on the road. The police have been asked to patrol the area and issue citations as needed. Please do not be one of the ones that get a ticket.

Parking is only allowed in the parking lot in the other entrance to the park (to the East). There is a trail that will take you down to the pond from there. I will be out early tomorrow morning to mark it clearly.

This is temporary, at the meeting we were discussing several possibilities to rectify this problem. Funny how it's a problem only because it is too popular, and you better believe that was the point I was stressing to the 12 member committee I was addressing. :D

It has come down to deciding which is the most urgent need. Tee pads and tee signs, or a real parking lot with a fence so we can open the gates daily. Keep in mind, this prioritization is based on the assumption that funding will be available at a later date to complete the projects that get bumped from the budget now. That is a big assumption because nothing in life is guaranteed.

Anyway, don't give up. The city is determined to make this a success and they are working with me to get this resolved. For now, please do not park on the street. There are at least four no parking signs up there and you will get a ticket if you ignore them.

I'll let you all know the outcome as I know it.

Brian

P.S. Don't forget about group golf tomorrow at 10:00. I will open the gate around 8:30 or 8:45 but will need to lock it when I leave much later in the day.

i knew we should've moved that dead skunk. :p brian with all the cars that have been parking out there you won't be able to lock the gate again until dark.

i knew we should've moved that dead skunk. :p brian with all the cars that have been parking out there you won't be able to lock the gate again until dark.



I may be out there until dark playing anyway...... :D

i'm planning on coming out tomorrow morning. is this going to be an organized mini, or a huge group all playing together, or what? where is everyone meeting?

cedar hill ( lorch park). :D

We were scared of the rain. Maybe next time for us.

Not us...Brian...what a simply amazing piece of property. The work put in by yourself first and all the others support was amazing and pretty fast to get 36 holes like that in the ground.

I can't wait to go back!! Definately DFW's newest gem for the disc golf community.

LORCH PARK - Thank you to the City of Cedar Hill, Brian and everyone else who gave an hour or days to get this done.

you got that right smurph. i thought you had been out there before today.

Nope...I was at home practicing my math skills...like you should be apparently :p

I see they need your putting tomorrow. Where are you shooting?

Well we would have had an 11month old in tow........ :) Hopefully there will be no threat of precip next time group golf is a go.

No mimi this weekend! :(

We were trying to get them started this weekend but it will not be happening.

I will still be there Saturday afternoon (with the open gate) to play but there is no organized mini.

We should be able to start them next weekend.

Brian

Hey nice to see you are holding off the mini till next weekend cause I have to work! I might see you out there Saturday afternoon.

Hey nice to see you are holding off the mini till next weekend cause I have to work! I might see you out there Saturday afternoon.



Sure Eric, it's all about you! :D

Brian

By the way, I am getting close to a resolution on the parking and fence situations with the city. I got a quote from the city yesterday regarding the fence and we are negotiating a solution.

Later,
Brian

what no mini, i'm gonna start playing lewisville again. cedar hill is on the decline. :D

That a boy Frank stay positive! Thanks Brian I thought you where keeping me in mind!

notice the happy face goober :D

Notice the sarcasm! :D

notice the post-whoring :eek:

notice the noticing!

I noticed... :p

Hey Brian,

We plan to come to play this Saturday.. How is the beaver course?? Still muddy on hole 5 to 7? So the way I can tell them to bring extra shoes! :D

soup is more like it, and could get worse if it rains on Friday night,, dont forget about 18 it is a mess to..
Please dont take this wrong though,, it is a great place, 36 holes with 4 that are wet, cant really ask for any thing better.

then how come your always whining about those 4 holes goober. :D

He doesn't like mud...just splashing it on others :D

Has anybody ever seen those holes playable?

Seems like everytime I play on the beaver I get covered in mud.
:confused:

The beauty is you couldn't have a good flow from 1-4 and onto the next hole if they were not there...if the city helps as much as they have so far..I am sure we can atleast mulch, sod, or remedy it somehow...if not...enjoy those 4 holes (5, 6, 7, and 18)...MUD...geeesh..I am more worried about thorns :D

I think if a couple small trenches were dug it would really help the water to flow through the holes. I think the city may not want us to do that though.

brian has said that the city will be working on that area.

Hey Brian,

We plan to come to play this Saturday.. How is the beaver course?? Still muddy on hole 5 to 7? So the way I can tell them to bring extra shoes! :D



Joey, I played all 36 holes last night. And yes, those 4 are still a mess. :(

The rest of the course plays great with the exception of a couple of small roots beginning to appear on a couple of tee pads. Be careful until I have time to dig them up.

I'll be out there from around 2:00 on Saturday.

Brian

Finally some good news to report!

The city and I have agreed on a fence design and price for the lower parking lot. :D

The only delay is while awaiting the county's approval on it. We do not expect any issues. Hopefully we will have that very soon.

Once installed, the gates will be open to the public during daylight hours. This is a very good thing.

Later,
Brian

long live John Wiley-Price :o:)

long live John Wiley-Price :o:)



Believe it or not, he is on the side of the disc golf community. :) Thanks to him, in part, Cedar Hill exists. He helped to push it though the Commisioners Court for approval.

He is actually a good person to have on your side. We all know what he can do to you if he is against you. Just for fun, without looking on the Internet, can anyone name any other members of the Commisioners Court?

Brian

I can't, but to be fair, I didn't know John Wiley Price was on the Commissioner's Court until you posted it.

I can name all my Tarrant County commissioners, but we all know only one Dallas County commissioner. Who are the other ones that seem to favor us? I've been thinking of sending a thank you note. It is always good to inform elected officials when they do something you like. You can be sure every elected official hears the complaints. They need to hear how much we appreciate what they did for us, too.
By the way, thanks again, Brian for all you have done to get Lorch Park where it is and where is going to be.

I can't, but to be fair, I didn't know John Wiley Price was on the Commissioner's Court until you posted it.



I didn't know before all of this started either. I just though it was interesting that no one I know even knows about or can begin to understand this court that decides EVERYTHING in Dallas County.

Okay, I just looked all the Dallas County Commissioners Court up on internet. It seems there is one member that lives in Cedar Hill, Kenneth Mayfield. What has communication been like with him?

Laura, I am not important enough to actually speak with a Court member. The person I deal with is the woman that has been seen at Lorch Park checking up on our work. She has been great. She reports directly to the Court, specifically, to Mr Price.

Brian

Now If I could just get JWP to dig my Orc out of the lake...

Orc in the Lake = Beaver treat.

It would be nice if Disc Golf had a retrieval tool similar to regular golf. Regular golf you can buy a 16' pole to retrieve a $2 golf ball. DG has very few options to retrieve a $9 disc

Orc in the Lake = Beaver treat.



I like that. Just like I'm sure the Beaver's liked my soft VPO Roc. Little b*st*rds! Like it's their fault that's where I threw it. :D

actually there is a device tied onto a rope for retrieveing disks.

It would be nice if Disc Golf had a retrieval tool similar to regular golf. Regular golf you can buy a 16' pole to retrieve a $2 golf ball. DG has very few options to retrieve a $9 disc



Try the Golden Retriever - once you scoop up 2 discs it has already paid for itself and is VERY easy to retrieve discs with.

Hey, I'm heading down through DFW this month and looking to play a couple of courses while I'm passing though. I've heard that Lorch is the love. Are there any photos online I can peruse? I understand it's brand new. Is it still rough, or is it broken in yet?

the beaver course is broken in perfectly. the coyote is Rough with a capital R. play the beaver, and then head over to z-boaz! then come back in the fall for hte coyote

'nother question. I'm probably getting into town late, late night or early, early morning. Is it cool to crash for a few hours in the park? Gates closed? Patrolling fuzz? Crack-smoking fools?

that probaly wouldn't be a good idea. pat there isn't anything wrong with the coyote course. :(

i didnt say there was. what i said was if you only have a few hours in dfw, playing the beaver and zboas would rock! if you dont have enuf time, then by all means play the coyote. dont get your thong in a bunch, pinkie :cool:

there are a ton of courses in DFW,, it depends on where you are coming in from,, from the north there is Lewisville and camping from the east aquabaun and you could probably get away with naping in your car, from the south cedar hill but not sure about the nap there, west well not sure on that one,, zboaz but not sure about the nap thing,, no courses with alot of dump butts out late that i am aware of. let us know what day and maybe some of us can show you around.

There IS a weekly mini this week in Cedar Hill!

If you are not playing in the Maceman event in Carrolton or going to World Dub's, come on out for a 3:00 start time.

Entries and payouts are the same as the weeklies at The Vet.

Brian

Will there be one every week now? That is exciting!

Will there be one every week now? That is exciting!



Every week that I can get out there (unless Jason wants to run one every now and then). My wife has a few things planned for me on a few up-coming Saturdays. Boy, talk about something that didn't go over well..... :confused:

I'd be more than happy to run a few of the mini's out there when you are working on your wife's "honey-do" list. :)

I'd be more than happy to run a few of the mini's out there when you are working on your wife's "honey-do" list. :)



I appreciate that. Dont be surprised when I take you up on the offer. :D

If I am in town I will help out as well Brian... I get off of work at 1pm on Saturdays in Grapevine, but only work one Saturday a month. Either way if I am not playing a PDGA event you can count on me being out at the park pretty much every Saturday. I will be there tomorrow, unfortunatly I have to work so no dubs for me.

You get to play too much. :o

That's because I don't have any little ones running around yet... Give me a couple of years and two of us will have a fat man as an aviator :D

yea let my hero run them he's always got some sweet disccraft stuff. :D

yea let my hero run them he's always got some sweet disccraft stuff. :D



Frank, for your information, we have Discraft plastic as well.

Brian

I�ve go good, check that, great news! The city will start building the new fence around the lower parking lot next week. :D Once completed, the gates will be opened during daylight hours for casual use. This is huge!

This did not come without some sacrifice; my plan of two tee pads for every hole has been reduced to one pad. I might be able to get a couple of additional pads on certain holes but that will be limited. I wanted to make sure the park was open for everyone to enjoy first. I will focus on additional needs later.

Anyway, enjoy the parking lot. Hopefully it will be open for the first time on March 26th.

Brian

Cool ... no more 1/2 mile nature hikes to get to the course

yea let my hero run them he's always got some sweet disccraft stuff. :D



Frank, for your information, we have Discraft plastic as well.

Brian



Ah....Yes, but mine is better b/c it is hand picked*. :D















































* not by me b/c i live in Northern Mexico.

Ah....Yes, but mine is better b/c it is hand picked*. :D

Honestly, Mauiro loves Discraft so much it scares me to think about what he might do when he is alone with the discs...... :eek:

You must admit that the people of Discraft make it impossible not to love.

geez don't be so sensitve i was talking about when you couldn't run the mini. :cool:oh and good job with the fence, and to everyone else that is keeping the park clean. played sunday it's looking good.

OK, I�m weird. :DLast night I figured out the scoring averages from our first mini on the Coyote course. In case you care, here are the results�.

Hole 1 = 3.45
Hole 2 = 3.65
Hole 3 = 3.55
Hole 4 = 3.25
Hole 5 = 3.05
Hole 6 = 3.50
Hole 7 = 2.85
Hole 8 = 3.45
Hole 9 = 4.10
Hole 10 = 3.65
Hole 11 = 3.15
Hole 12 = 3.25
Hole 13 = 3.10
Hole 14 = 3.55
Hole 15 = 3.15
Hole 16 = 3.85
Hole 17 = 3.15
Hole 18 = 3.15

This is the average from the 20 participants this last Saturday regardless of division.

10 Open (Men)
2 Open (Women)
3 Advanced (Men)
5 Masters (Men)

See everyone this Saturday. We start at 3:00.

Brian

Here is an email that I recieved:

Brian,
Just thought I would drop a line to say I played Cedar
hill for the first time this past Sunday and I have to
say the back 18 is awesome. I'm a left handed golfer
and I enjoyed every hole. I was unable to participate
in the work days due to work, but would like send out
a big Thank You to those who did they put together one
kick [*****] course.I'm not putting down any of the other
courses but it was just gorgeous. Anyway if you could
please let folks know that it is a fun playable course
and I can see why I have heard so many compliments on
it.

Thanks,
Evan"Big Easy"Jones

It's great to see that we are getting so many compliments on the courses. I absolutely love seeing people out playing those two courses that I got the oppurtunity to be a part of.

Don't forget that we will have another mini at Lorch Park this Saturday at 3PM, make it out if you can. This time we'll be playing the BEAVER :o.

Let the jokes begin :D

you wouldn't know a beaver if it jumped up and smacked you in the face. :D

Yeah, yeah.........try to tell that to lurker :p.

it's taking her a minute to get what you said. :D

LMAO........that figures.

<font color="red">WAKE UP SHERI!!! </font>

Just to let everyone know, we will start workdays back up sometime after Easter. Time to add some length to those courses ;).

Just talked to Brian on my way home from work. He went to the park and the gate was open :eek:, when he got to the bottom of the drive there was a split rail fence there that should be completed tomorrow :D:D.

Man I love the city of Cedar Hill :cool:.

No Kidding Jason...the support they have given these courses and the speed at which they have done it is amazing. Their parks guys and gals time is also more than admirable..

you guys need to post an e-mail address again so we can bombard them with kudos and compliments on the city of cedar hill.

you guys need to post an e-mail address again so we can bombard them with kudos and compliments on the city of cedar hill.



I doubt that they want to get "bombarded" with emails. :D

If you happen to see a city person while at the park, just be nice and polite and tell them that you appreciate their support.

Besides, I thank them every chance I get.

Brian

Are the mini's at 3:00 or 2:30? Toolen said 2:30 in the ADGA's huge ace thread.

Sign up at 2:30.

Start at 3:00.

Brian

I stated 2:30 because I know golfers and the time they show up for mini's!!!!

Hey, I resemble that comment! :D

Ignore what I said on Saturday about the next mini in Cedar Hill being canceled. Clay Brumit has stepped up and will run it this coming Saturday for us. Thanks Claydog!

The following Saturday (April 2nd) Brian Mace will be running a food drive so the mini will not happen that day.

Later,
Brian

The only thing I can really say about the park is WOW. Thanks to all you who worked your kiesters off puttin this in and Cedar Hill Parks service for helping so much with these courses. WOW-PRETTY :D

That's my birthday :D

Then you'll be paying double Mr. Pepperling. The extra cash goes to the td volunteering his time, whoever that might be.
Aren't you masters age yet?

Got out to Cedar Hill today. I love playing those courses more each time I go out there.

i want to build a house between coyote's # 1 tee box and beaver's #16 basket. :D

What time on Saturday mini? I went there today. Man, I got many cuts on my legs from thorns! This time I am gonna use pant! :D

2:30 sign up on Saturday.

Here's a hint for you Joey................stay in the fairway and you don't need pants :D:D.

I'll clarify after reading that, you won't need LONG pants ;).

HAHA.. Still have to wear pant. I get poison ivy very easy :confused: Today, I went there to play with friends. David Howell aced 8th hole on coyote course. He is 51 yrs old! I hit the chain on hole 5th on beaver. :D

Both great shots to get to the bucket :D. Hole 8 on the Coyote is playing from the short pad to the short pin placement, look around while you are on the Coyote course (behind the pads and past the pins) and you will seee the potential that we have out there. Hole 5 on the Beaver is one of my favorite holes due to the scenery and the fact that if you don't hit your line you have a situation on your hands :D.

Hope to see you out there for one of the minis.

What are the course records on the courses?

Emac shot a -10 on The Coyote, and McCoy shot a -8 on the Beaver at the Big show events.

Which one is which again? If the Beaver is the wooded one, that will be easier to remember from now on (Nice beaver = lots of wood). LOL

Which one is which again? If the Beaver is the wooded one, that will be easier to remember from now on (Nice beaver = lots of wood). LOL



Beavers like water. Can you figure it out now?

That is why I like to use the front and back names for the courses. Seems easier.

John, he's from College Station.... he's just a little slower than the rest of us. :eek: :D

what are the front and back names? ;)

John, he's from College Station.... he's just a little slower than the rest of us. :eek: :D



That explains a lot.

what are the front and back names? ;)



Front=Beaver=Water

Back=Coyote=Woods

Someone mentioned to me that there was a way to have a championship setup which combined both of the courses. Maybe a par 72 type layout. Is this true? If so, how is it and will there be any tourneys using that layout?

Yessir. It's one hole. Tee off from the Coyote #12, and finish on #2's basket on the Beaver. Should take about 72 shots. :)

I could do it in 30 shots. :)

I could do it in 30 shots. :)



I forgot to mention that the use of any of the existing fairways would result in a 1 stroke penalty. You must stay in the ROUGH. :D

Hey, Heckle and Jeckle, I was serious, or at least y'all should think about it. You could setup one sensational par 72 course out there, just on a temporary basis, of course.

We just did. :D

and a Nice one at that :D

hmmm... cool idea. i dont have the map in front of me, and this is first crack at it from memory... here's a start:

1: B1T - B1P par 3
2: B2T - B4P par 3
3: B6T - B7P par 4 (or B5T, wouldnt matter too much)
4: B8T - C17P par 3
5: C17T - C14P par 4
6:
7:
8:
9:
10: C10T - C11P par 4
11: C12T - C13P par 5 (even possible ?????)
12: C14T - C15P par 4
13: C16T - C18P par 3 (problem crossing #4)
14: C1T - B8P par 4 (and use B9P for long, par 6???)
15: B10T - B11P par 4
16: B12T - B13P par 5
17: B14T - B15P par 3
18: B16T - B18P par 4 (or tee from the turtle)

that 53 strokes for 14 holes
having some trouble linking coyote's holes, so if you have ideas feel free...

Way to use that thinking cap. Y'all work on it, try it out, realize that it is great, and have a tourney there. I will then have a good reason to drive up there and put some birdshot into those two donkeymonkeys. :p

Cool Pat.


James,

Shut your donkey! Besides, it's hard to shoot birdshot when you have monkeybutt from playing Pat's wicked course. :p

(Notice how i used donkey and monkey, you donkeymonkey!) :D

This might be playable.

There's a couple of really tight connections.

1: B1T - B2P par 5 (Across the road is OB until you reach the parking lot at the top of the hill)
2: B3T - B4P par 4
3: B5T - B5P par 3
4: B6T - B7P par 4
5: B8T - B9P par 4
6: B10T - B11P par 4
7: B13T - B14P Par 4
8: B15T - C2P par 5
9: C3T - C5P Par 5
10: C6T - C8P par 5
11: C9T - C9P par 3
12: C10T - C11P par 5
13: C12T - C12P par 3
14: C13T - C14P par 4
15: C15T - C16P par 4
16: C17T - C18P par 4
17: C1T - B17P par 5
18: B18T - B18P par 3


Par 74.

Front=Beaver



:D :D

Figures you would have to make that glaringly obvious.

Huh Huh...Mark said Beaver :D

http://www.soniguales.com/fotos/Beavis.gif

Figures you would have to make that glaringly obvious.



Just a little middle school humor. :D

beaver dammit! is the map online?

I don't think the map is online.

If I have skecthed the course out right it will work.

Beaver course:
Hole 1: Play hole 1 up and across the parking lot to 2s pin.
Hole 2: Tee from 3 around the corner down hill to 4s basket.
Hole 3: Play 5 just to get to 6's tee.
Hole 4: Tee from 6 to 7's basket. A long way through the trees.
Hole 5: Tee from 8 to 9's basket. Over water on the drive, then layup and over water on the approach, or risk a long second shot over water.
Hole 6: Tee from 10 to 11's basket, long lightning bolt of a hole.
<font color="red">oops, Holes 7 and 8 were wrong before</font>
Hole 7: From 14's tee to 15's basket. Skip 12 and 13 completely.
Hole 8: From 16's tee to Coyote 2's basket. (might have to settle for 1's basket).

Coyote course:
Hole 9: Tee 3, past the basket and left down 5's fairway.
Hole 10: Tee 6, past the basket to the last half of 7's fairway, past the basket to the last half of 8's fairway to 8's basket.
Hole 11: Regular hole 9
Hole 12: Tee 10 to 11's basket. Hard left trun into a tight tunnel.
Hole 13: regular hole 12
Hole 14: Tee 13 out of the woods and right down the hill to 14's basket.
Hole 15: Tee 15 to 16's basket.
Hole 16: 17's tee to 18's basket.
Hole 17: Tee 1 to Beaver 17's basket. Careful crossing players on Hole 5 (Beaver 8).

Beaver Course:
Hole 18: Regular 18.

how well is the course marked???

i am hopping to sneak down there tomorrow (Friday) and play the courses around noon.

Brian L has a great safari layout (I deleted the PM :( with it in it) already worked out. Once people become a little more accustomed to the layout of each course we'll start using that in the rotation of the Saturday minis.

I'll be out at Lorch tomorrow around 12:45 if you want a guided tour Pizza. Right now the courses are not marked very well, so if it's your first time there it can be a little confusing.

if jason marked it look for a bud lite can staked at every hole. :D

Now that was funny! :D

not too shabby! here's some comments:


Beaver course:
Hole 1: Play hole 1 up and across the parking lot to 2s pin.
<font color="green"> regular hole 1 is better. even a three past regular 1';s basket does not yield a par 5 if you play on to 2's basket. too long. </font>

Hole 2: Tee from 3 around the corner down hill to 4s basket.
<font color="green"> nice enuf, but play frm 2's tee if you agree with my note above. </font>

Hole 3: Play 5 just to get to 6's tee.
<font color="green"> hmmmm... </font>

Hole 4: Tee from 6 to 7's basket. A long way through the trees.
<font color="green"> good hole. also could play from 5's tee and avoid having to play regular hole 5. </font>

Hole 5: Tee from 8 to 9's basket. Over water on the drive, then layup and over water on the approach, or risk a long second shot over water.

<font color="green"> another classic. </font>

<font color="green"> [*****]! </font>

Hole 7: From 14's tee to 15's basket. Skip 12 and 13 completely.

<font color="green"> using C2P is downright wrong. how many 4's and 5's were there on those one from C2T-C2P? add 3-4 throws just to get to C2T and you have a par 7! gott aplay to C1P, but then its nuttin more than D. </font>

Coyote course:
Hole 9: Tee 3, past the basket and left down 5's fairway.
<font color="green"> maybe, but needs some roughage work </font>

Hole 10: Tee 6, past the basket to the last half of 7's fairway, past the basket to the last half of 8's fairway to 8's basket.

Hole 11: Regular hole 9
<font color="green"> prolly OK on a par72+ course. </font>

<font color="green"> yes, this one is nice! </font>

Hole 13: regular hole 12
<font color="green"> too bad. would be nice to do something with this part of the course. </font>

Hole 14: Tee 13 out of the woods and right down the hill to 14's basket.
<font color="green"> ok... even a possible three i think, likely par4 </font>

<font color="green"> works ok, but not very interesting </font>

Hole 16: 17's tee to 18's basket.

Hole 17: Tee 1 to Beaver 17's basket. Careful crossing players on Hole 5 (Beaver 8).

Beaver Course:
Hole 18: Regular 18.
<font color="green"> boring finish to a potentially great layout. i'd strongly prefer teeing from left of the turtle.</font>

the thickness of the back part of the coyote really crimps linking up that part of the course. that'll change soon enough. some creativity with the potentially crossing fairways around B16P, C1T, C18P, C16P is needed on both of our designs.

Beaver course:
Hole 1: Play hole 1 up and across the parking lot to 2s pin.
<font color="green">regular hole 1 is better. even a three past regular 1';s basket does not yield a par 5 if you play on to 2's basket. too long.</font>
<font color="blue"> The key would be in deciding when to go for 2's fairway. I can see getting a look at a 4.</font>

Hole 2: Tee from 3 around the corner down hill to 4s basket.
<font color="green">nice enuf, but play frm 2's tee if you agree with my note above.</font>
<font color="blue">I still would want to add some of the corner, and would rather it be at the end of the flight rather than the beginning.</font>

Hole 3: Play 5 just to get to 6's tee.
<font color="green">hmmmm...</font>

Hole 4: Tee from 6 to 7's basket. A long way through the trees.
<font color="green">good hole. also could play from 5's tee and avoid having to play regular hole 5.</font>
<font color="blue">I needed the hole and wanted 6-7. with a little work, the tee could be just left of 4's basket playing out of the woods.</font>

Hole 5: Tee from 8 to 9's basket. Over water on the drive, then layup and over water on the approach, or risk a long second shot over water.
<font color="green">yes, a very nice hole.</font>
<font color="blue">It would help congestion if this tee'd from B17T instead of B8T. At least there wouldn't be groups of people standing on the corner that hole 17 tries to cut</font>

less than my share of aces more than my share of CTPs

[/QUOTE]

<font color="purple"> why? a "safari" layout is not necessarily a great par 72 layout! there's lots of ways to build cool safari holes at Lorch. but as we're discovering from our little exercise, there's some real challenges in working 18 good holes into it.</font>


here's my thoughts on par values for your layout:

1: 5 (and an awfully difficult 5 at that. more like 8's and 9's waiting to happen)
2: 4
3: 3 (still say its lame tho :) )
4: 4
5: 4
6: 4
7: 4
8: 4 (gotta play to C1P)
9: 4 (cant quite picture this one, so tell me if its a 5)
10: 5 (?)
11: 3
12: 4
13: 3
14: 4
15: 3 (or an easy par 4)
16: 3
17: 4
18: 3

par: 68
maybe a couple of those could be legitimately raised... 17 (especially in the new long P position), 15, 10, 9 ?

H 9: Perfect golf (about 250' per throw)
1 shot to clear the tunnel.
Shot 2 should give you a look at 5's fairway. a great shot can see 5's basket.
Shot 3 should get you to close range (2 shot range).

Depends on how you count par. Close + 2 or projected average.

H 1: there are no par 6s.
H 10: Beyond hole 6s basket by about 100' you connect to the last third of the fairway of hole 7. Turn right, 200' or so puts you in the middle of hole 8's fairway. Turn left 175' or so to the basket.

1 shot to get near 6s basket.
Shot 2 carries to 7s fairway.
Shot 3 if it gets through clean, it could be within 150' of the basket.
that's 2 shot range.

H 9: Perfect golf (about 250' per throw)
1 shot to clear the tunnel.
Shot 2 should give you a look at 5's fairway. a great shot can see 5's basket.
Shot 3 should get you to close range (2 shot range).

Depends on how you count par. Close + 2 or projected average.



I think hole 1 to 2's basket could be a par 5 but I think it would be an easy par 5. Seems close between hard par 4 and easy par 5. I could see 3 on there with 2 very good shots. Roller out to the right side of fairway, then a big hyzer to the bucket.

WOW, what can I say, it was a GREAT day to play disc golf today, light wind and a cool 75 timp.

What I like about courses are defined fairways and reachable holes for most of them.

This course is the best course I have played in a long time and could one of my favorates i have ever played.

The only hole I could not reach was #1 (Beaver). I still need to get a 3 on that hole.

If it were not for a stupid 5 on #2 on the Wooden course, I would have shot 2 under on both. (shot even on Wood and 2 down on Beaver)

There are several classic holes that I thought were great.

#17 off the Dam was cool, I just missed my birdie put from my first drive and almost aced it with my second drive.

#16 on the beaver course had a great fairway.

#14 and #16? (long hole up the hill) were both fun to play and great holes. (I just missed my bird putts on both)

nothing like being 20ft out and have little or no shot at several of the holes.

I luckly never got deap in the shule, it would have been bad if i did. Almost every shot i had was on or just off the fairway all day.

Like I said, I was like a kid in a candy store today.

I can't wait to get back there next Saturday.

Oh yea, one more thing, it was great to see 20 cars in the parking lot when I pulled in. You could not hear anything out there but birds and chains. It was great.

Glad that you like the courses! Hey Brian, plan to have bag tags for cedar hill? Also, How much to pay mini in all divisions? Thanks

No tags planned yet, pretty soon we will start requiring membership to the club to be in Ace Pots etc...just waiting to get paperwork finalized on that.

For right now the minis are $5 for all Am divisions, $7 for Masters, and $10 for Open ($1 ace pot included).

Reminder - No mini this week. Come on out and play in Brian Mace's DFW Food Drive starting Saturday morning.

Brian

will the courses be open for casual play saturday? how many people are expected? i have to work in the am..

Sorry Brian, I dont know how many are expected or if one or both courses will be used at the same time.

Mace is probably either at the park now or on his way and wont see this to respond.

Regards,
Brian

I fig'd I'd make it 3 Bryans in a row to post.

I am sure you can sneek out on the course tomorrow. It may take longer for your rounds though.

mini saturday?

Yes. 3 PM sharp!

See you then.

Terry, are you sure want to start this with me? :D

OK, here goes. Bill told me about it. He wanted me to tell you hello. You remember Bill don't you? He was the one asking about you at the motivational seminar downtown. Should I tell the story?
:o
Brian

Holy cow!

Please do.................. :D

I retract that statement. Actually I thought about that after I posted that, but figured, what the helll. :eek:

Holy cow!

Please do.................. :D



Maybe that could be the CTP prize at tomorrows mini in Cedar HIll. The winner gets to hear the story of a motivated man... :o

Or maybe I'll just use a regular prize for a CTP?

i want to hear it. :D

I found a set of car keys in Cedar Hill on Friday night. Spread the word. Send me a PM or call my cell (972-998-1311) if they might be yours.

Brian

Are you sure they don't belong to your pet hamster? :D

She wouldn't be caught dead driving a Honda. :D

Brian,
If I play at Lorch on Thursday (5-ish), where do you suggest we park at? Will the gate be open or should we park at the first lot?

By the way, good match last Wednesday, and thanks for the couple of bucks in payout. If I ever play again for plastic at the mini's, I'll give you my leftovers. I'm gonna try to play open, but we'll see how it goes!


Thanks,
Derek

Played both courses again on Saturday with some of the STD'ers and had another great time. Courses are naturally getting some trails from use and it is becoming easier to get that errant throw - sometimes

#17 Beaver on the long was SWEET! Watts was about 2ft from hitting it.

Derek, the gate at Lorch Park is open from dawn till dusk now. So parking in the new parking lot shouldn't be a problem.

You've got the ability to play open. Go for it!

You coming to the mini at The Vet tomorrow?

Later,
Brian

You should hang around for the mini at 3:00 next time... :D

Thanks Brian, if I can be there tomorrow, I will play open. Hopefully the wind isn�t as nuts! If I could get all three parts of the game in sync (i.e. show up at the same time), I have no doubts that I could play in open (maybe not compete, but play respectably), I just need my drive and putt to both show up, and if needed, the upshot too. We�ll definitely enjoy our round at CH on Thursday, and maybe on Saturday we�ll come play the mini. Which course is used or are both? 9 am, right? Thanks again.

Derek, I usually don't decide on the course until I see the conditions as rain makes the beaver all wet and sloppy :D. Sorry I just couldn't resist.

The Cedar Hill mini's are Saturdays at 3:00.

BTW - There is a "C" tier at the mighty Z this Saturday. It benefits the Junior Disc Golf Foundation. I hope there is a big participation base for that event with a great cause. The people that can go play this should do it. For everyone else out there, come on down to Cedar Hill for some fun.

Brian

bad, just bad.

I know about the JDGF event, and I don't know if I can make it either due to the time (all day) or $. ($45 for advanced!). I would like to play, and don't mind the money, but we'll see if I have the time. If not, I'll be playing in the morning until noon or so, and Cedar Hill is a great place to do that!

25$ for ADV trophy only, Im sure you got plenty of plastic. :D

Anyone know of anybody finding a wallet at Crowley about a month ago???

Anyone know of anybody finding a wallet at Crowley about a month ago???



Nope. sorry.

Brian

How about my 10x KC Pro dyed Firebird...lost that disc about 4 times now...might be a sign :D

red/green/blue dyed champion beast w/ my name on it....in the deep crap short and right of the basket, or maybe high in the trees.

if anyone can find it and return it to me i will make it worth your while, big time. i have a crapload of discs i can offer of just about every type. this one just happened to have alot of sentimental value. i'll give you 8 used champion/z discs of your choice or 4 new or even a couple CE discs for it. it means alot to me.

Reminder - we are playing the mini this Saturday at 3:00. Sign-ups will start around 2:45.

The ace pot is starting at $70 and you know a couple of the holes out there can be hit....

See everyone there.

Brian

what hole?

what hole?



Look at the subject heading, OMB. Ooops, sorry. Wrong thread. :D

classic Mark... :D

I didn't find any discs on the coyote, but I found a sweet, broken in Orc with no name on it on the Beaver. The thing threw so far, it was awesome!

As for the courses, they look incredible. The mowing and everything is in FANTASTIC shape. Even the sloppy holes are okay (well, except for putting on 5). I shot pretty well there yesterday, -2 on Beaver, and +3 on Coyote. Missed too many birdie putts and didn't hit good lines on Coyote. I'm hoping to get to play them again tomorrow since I can't make the JDGF event on Saturday. I love these courses!!!

Come on out tomorrow for the mini. People are going to have to get used to the water on 5 'cuz we are playing the beaver course tomorrow unless major rain falls tonight.

Glad to hear they mowed. Did the city pick all of the tree limbs I moved to the driveway?

Later,
Brian

I didn't see any tree limbs...
Don't think I can make the mini at 3 this weekend. I try to play Saturday mornings when not in tourneys so I can get stuff done. I have lots of yard work, cleaning, and probably some work work also. Weren't the mini's around 9 at one point?

PS I really like the longer hole 17 Beaver hole. I threw an Orc right at that sucker. I birdied that one and hole 10 for the first time ever. Gotta get back out there! I have never shot under par on both on the same day. Some day...

The mini's were never at 9:00. For a while we had work days starting at 9:00 followed by draw doubles later in the day. That might be what you are thinking about.

Later,
Brian

update on beaver no. 5 it is dry, dry dry dry :Deverything mowed. man life is good then comes cedar hill. :D

Frank sucks :D

not as bad as the ygb's sucka :D

oh..you quick little grasshopper you...call grandma..for some golf..he wussed on JDGF...

Of course he did. No MM1 field and a late fee. You should know he would duck out. Well, time to get back to the yardwork.

I snuck down there Thursday to play, the course had been mowed recently.

Several trees have been pruned.

I had a very easy 3 on #1 for the first time. Those branches being gone made the hole MUCH easier.

I did manage to shoot -3 on Beaver with no bogies

I shot -1 on Coyote with two bogies and one very narly double.

The cleaning up of low hanging limbs on the open holes made those easier. I parked 6 and had a 50ft putt on 7 (missed).

now if someone would just clean out all the briar patches in the park and spray for poison ivy (dang legs itch as I type) :D

and I would have whooped that pink arse today.....way to go YGB's...


Athens..next weekend...B tier...come on DOWN :D

instead of paying 50 dollars at jdgf i won 50 dollars at cedar hill. :Dthanks jason :Dand brian only threw 3 discs at me all day :Dof course he missed. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

instead of paying 50 dollars at jdgf i won 50 dollars at cedar hill.



......but what about the chance of winning a $1400 vacation?

Also, i just remembered all of your jibberjabber about how great the JDGF is/was last year at the final......and how you couldn't wait for next season. I'm a bit :confused:

Frank is a very confusing person with a bad memory. :eek: :D :eek:

i wanted to play i checked every night on sign ups no one ever signed up in my div. so i didn't want to pay 50 bucks to play in what looked smaller divs.i'm still on board with jdgf but i think with world dubs last weekend most guys were pooped out.

you mean you didn't want me to whoop you when you were playing in Am with the young guns :D

We didn't have that many at WD, but after PPO and WD with Athens coming up, it might be a bad weekend.

OK. My arms are like jello today.

I spent a couple of hours working on the park last night.

Hole 12 on the beaver should be a little more enjoyable now. It may, or may not look like it, but I took down a bunch of high hanging vines and cleared a few branches with the pole saw. That thing gets heavy after a while...

I also took the pole saw to a couple of tee pads to get rid of some small stumps that were appearing in the ground and continued working on the alternate sleeve for hole 17 on the Coyote. I was getting close to finishing when I ran out of gas. Maybe this weekend I can finish it and move the basket for a little while.

Spoke with a few first timers to the park. I love seeing new people out there. Especially since they almost always love it there.

Brian

Dont forget the weekly mini this week.

For those not going to Athens come on out to Cedar Hill. Sign ups start at 2:45 Saturday.

I've still got some Bulldogs left and now have a shipment of Viper's and Drone's to add to the payout. I threw them both last night. Wow!

Brian

Hey Brian, I'm bringing the ladies out to play at 10:00 in the morning, I told them all about hanging around for the mini at 3. Hopefully we will have a few new players out there sat :)see you soon , Juli

Julie, if we have enough ladies we can do a ladies card CTP..... Not sure what to use yet but we can figure out something from the club stock.

Brian

I think you mean Venom, not Viper.

I was just wondering if Brian has just now found out about one of Innova's oldest discs :D

he's living in the past /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Alright, no fair picking on me.

Of course I meant Venom's. What can I say, I've hit too many trees with my discs and with my head.... :D

Sorry Discraft John....

Brian

Don�t forget about Cedar Hill�s weekly Saturday Mini this weekend at 3:00. Jason is running it so have fun with him.

I�ll be at an in-law Mother�s Day gathering. Where do you think I would rather be?

Brian

this ought to be good. jason you better make sure and get ginetta on the right card. :D

Brian I am loving these two courses more and more every time I play them. Maybe that's because my score drops every time! I shot -6 on the Coyote and -5 on the Beaver, finishing with a 2 (parked) on 18 Beaver! What are the records for each? Last time I heard, -10 was the Coyote best, and -8 was the Beaver best. Of course that was tourney play, and I'm not sure what pro scores have been shot casually since then...

#14 on the Beaver just plain SUCKS. A 180 hole that was the only one to ruin a bogey-free round. Same thing with 10 on the Coyote, although that was a risk shot. A roller is a good shot on that hole...if you make sure it stands up!

I can't wait until the TX10 comes through there this year.

cedar hill is the gem of north texas for sure.

Those records are correct, I believe.

I have been trying to take that record down on the front course but my best is 47, so far. I like hole 13 on that course. Just play it like the shortest par 4 in the world. :D

My least favorite hole on the course is 12 on the front. Some of my worst drives have parked it and my best hit one of the 3 trees that are evenly spread across the gap. I really think 1 of those should be taken down. It wouldn't really make the hole easier, just a lot more fair. Lucky shots can still get through some other gaps but at least that gives you about 6' of room to aim for.

i think you guys have the wrong hole number. 14 is wide open.

i played in the big show at cedar hill....and those courses were my favorite that i have ever played...but i havent been very far. i aced hole 9 on the beaver course in friday night dubs b4 the tourney

danny you described number 12.

Thanks for the good words guys. And just think, were not done with them yet.

The Beaver course is still going to be getting some alternate sleeves put in the ground and The Coyote course is still going to get longer, a little more open and, of course, alternate sleeves.

The number plates have come in, thanks to Jason, and the city has agreed to put them on the baskets for me.

In the very near future we need to have another work day to get some of that additional clearing done and to start marking the tees better so we can install the concrete pads.

Once all of that is done, we'll get some tee signs made and put in.

This place is only going to get better...... :D

Don't forget to come out for the Saturday mini at 3:00.

No mini on the 21st. Everyone needs to go play the A - Z Doubles at ZBOAZ and The Vet. Myself included if I can find a babysitter and a partner.

Later,
Brian

P.S. Danny, have you seen the long sleeve for hole 9 yet? It isn't playable yet but the sleeve is in the ground. It measures out to just over 300' from the pad going over the beaver dam and through the trees to the clearing behind the current pin placement. Way cool!

Oops, I meant hole 12. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

And yeah I saw where the long 9 will be. That looks like it will be a great hole. I love holes that have risk-reward. That is a hole that almost anyone can 3 everytime if they lay up, but going for it can be really good or really bad. :D

Danny, when hole 12 gets it's longer sleeve it will play better. Right now, the shortest hole on the course can either make your round, or break it.

Brian

Does that mean that 13 will get a longer tee as well ?

You know, just to shorten the walk to the next tee from 12 long. :cool:

Gary - how much longer do you think 12 is going to get? :)

13 might have an alternate, longer tee. It depends on the use of the terrain and exactly where the 12 basket ends up going. I have a pretty good idea where it will be but have not been in that deep part of the trees in a while and might change it up some more.

Brian

I really didn't look at from that point of view when I was there last, but just 20' back into the woods restricting the high annie route would make it interesting.

There is lots of room to adjust that hole. Just need to find the time and energy to get it done now.

Hole 11 could use a little tweaking on that course as well.

Brian

lorch park is great now just put in the tee boxes already would ya. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

No mini in Cedar Hill this Saturday the 21st...

I found a babysitter and a partner for the A to Z Doubles.

Mini's will resume on the 28th.

Brian

I found a partner for the A to Z Doubles.





Hiding hamsters in your hole doesn't count! :o

what does your babysitter look like. :D

Frank, she's to old for you. She's at least 16. :D

And I'm ignoring John's comment. He just doesn't understand. :confused: :o

:D

The city of Cedar Hill is awesome! I just received word that the city installed the number plates for all 36 baskets today. :D

I still have to attach the number stickers but boy does that save us a bunch of work. I should have time to affix the stickers next Tuesday after work. Can't do it this weekend because I am playing in the A - Z Doubles.

Reminder... No mini this weekend.

Later,
Brian

remember it's no.1 followed by no. 2 then no. 3. :Dcan you handle it. :D

It was nice to hear Shanan talk about how awesome the CH courses are when he was accepting his cash at the A-Z doubles awards.

I have to admit, that was pretty darn cool...... Jason caught me trying to hold in the smile... :D

Hey Brian, just wanted to say it was good to meet you, and thank you for showing us around Z-boaz friday. We would have been lost most of the round if it wasn't for you...Next time we head up that way we go check out Cedar Hill.

Thanks Jason. It was nice to meet you too.

You guys missed out on a great, tough, tournament. How was the wakeboarding?

Brian

How was the wakeboarding?



Did they go to Marine Creek Lake off of 820? I know Gary went to go fly fish that Lake on Sunday and he said as he was leaving at 9am that a lot of high dollar trailers were pulling up, and the parking lot was closed to the public as he left. I know they hold a large event there once or twice a year.

Yes. They came up for the professional wakeboarding but were able to play The Z on Friday while their girls otherwise occupied themselves.

The wakeboarding was GREAT!!! To see those guys doing the stuff they can do is just amazing. I mean I wakeboard, wakeskate more, but I am far, VERY FAR from the level these guys are. The boarding was great, got to see a couple of newly landed tricks, a couple of 900s, , couple of attempts at a 1080, a kickflip from the wakeskate guys, met some nice people from all over, it was a fun weekend. **** HOT THOUGH!!!!

We came up early on friday to play a course in the area of our hotel, Z boaz was the closest. Plus I had asked on an earlier thread which would be the best and closest in the area Zboaz was the answer I got. It was a fun course, a lot tighter than what we are use to out here in the land of the mesquite, but the elevation, and all made it a lot of fun. I would like to play it again now that I know the layout better.


How did you do in the toureny?

Now that I think about it, I think it was "MyHero" that told me Zboaz would be the place to go....

I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed yourself. Once you can conquer the Almighty Z.....you can conquer just about anything. :D

Don't know if conquer would be the word I would use for the way I played Z....nor would my score reflect it, but I did have fun, and would love to get a chance to play it again sometime. As well as some of the other course up in that area. We are thinking of planning a trip up there just for disc golf. See how many course we can get through in a weekend. But I think we will wait till it starts cooling off a bit first.

How did you do in the toureny?



:D Let me put it this way. Remeber that little cliff on hole 15? You know, the hole I nailed that perfect shot through the trees on Friday? Well, I didn't exactly manage to do that on Saturday. If my partner had thrown me off the cliff into the creek leaving me to rot, no one would have blamed him. :D

Except for "rough" shot I think I held my own. We ended up finshing two strokes from cash in Advanced.

brian how's the baby hawk doing?

I'll find out tonight. I'm going out to put some numbers on the basket plates. Figures I'd check on the little fella then.

Cedar Hill has gone big time for Dallas County.

The disc golf course is a feature on their landing park of the Parks and Open Spaces section of Dallas County OnLine. This is the official website for the city and Dallas County Commissioners Court. AKA, the big boys...

Dallas County OnLine (http://www.dallascounty.org/html/citizen-serv/open-spaces/intro.html)

Check it out.

That's awesome Brian. My favorite part of the write up.......


Please watch your step in the woods. This is a Rattlesnake, Coral snake, Water Moccasin and Copperhead Habitat.




I guess with all of the hamsters that have "escaped" from you, the snakes have all the food in the world that they would need. :o
