Q . September 5, 2013 at 10:11pm
Left my prodigy F2 under the pine trees, by the parking lot, last night at summer league. Did anyone pick this disc up? I will give a disc to whoever returns it to me.
Hey just an FYI I went out their earlier this afternoon to look for my lost plastic. By pine trees by the parkinglot I assume you mean the line of pines parallel to the parking lot. I searched up and down, I searched the field, and even the pines surrounding the field by hole one and saw no sign of ... more
Thanks it is gone. I had it during warm ups and just left it there I know it was there because someone was asking me if I liked it. I walked away from the thing. Too bad it was loving the new fitz course.

How's the big problem?
not bad, rivers edge get a lil buggy after 10, but not even close to how bad it was
Ben Ross August 4, 2013 at 7:02am

Joshua "Tree" Bucher July 22, 2013 at 2:57am
Lost an Orange champ orc. Maybe on two, long basket. No name just the Chinese symbol for "Tree". Lost it third round of CCR Open.
Fred Vocino June 29, 2013 at 4:59am
Went to Burchfield today with a plan to play both courses. After 3.5 hours on Devil's Den I quit after 17 holes; I was tired of looking for my Buzzz and the lightning got closer. Spending most of the time looking for drives in the rough causes me to wonder. With all the attention given to the fairway mowing, is the plant growth right off the fairway an intentional part of the course design? It is difficult to imagine how that growth will appear by the time the CCR Open happens.
yes i see your point, although 17 is a island hole, and if you dont hit the island, you re-tee. But definately, the waist high rough is time consuming of a round. i lost a yellow avenger off to the right of the fairway on 7 today, didnt think it went that far in, but couldnt find it after 20 mins.
Jim, I think the course leaders understand the rough overgrowth issue. With time, the intended obstacles will develope, and reliance on large sections of hay will diminish. I expect to like Burchfield more as a good balance of rough is found. I play a course in Grand Rapids that is very open and rel ... more

This a request that someone who regularly plays at Burchfield gives an occasional post so that people can see when the courses have drained enough to be playable. Note : a few sloppy spots are to be expected
on the other hand, it's been raining for two days straight now.
expect Rivers edge to be mushy, if not flooded on some holes. Renegade's Trail should be mostly okay with some standing water in the bowls, 11's fairway and 17.
Thanks, most of my concern was that the spring rains had drained. These next few days will hopefully soak in by early next week.
Harold Fernando June 21, 2013 at 3:48pm
Threw a Star Destroyer in the shit past long pin hole 2 at Renegade's Trail. Has initials HPF and my phone #. Please call or give to Rinker. Thanks.

Cool Justin, we were out at Burchfield over Memorial Day weekend at the skeeters were BAD, on both courses. Had one bug named Rocco steal my dang VIP King. If you guys up there see this mosquito, steer clear, one tough bugger.
haha, I didn't find any Kings out there today. That's a bummer, man.
Jon Tucker June 9, 2013 at 6:32pm
Lost a green champion wraith with big clover in black marker on rivers edge. It would b great if I could get this one back. Also lost a yellow z surge on hole 3 long basket on devils den. Just hit an ace with it last week!!! If any one finds these a reward is up!!
Steve Nolff May 23, 2013 at 6:52pm
Little help from a local? What is the story with Devil's Den, Rivers Edge and Burchfield. Three courses? Are they all open? Have anyone played the course with Deep Woods Off, or is that not helpful. Skeeters are horrible everywhere right now. We are thinking about heading up that way to play for a day or two. Any feedback would be great.
We played singles leagues on rivers edge last night. The only time we didn't have to contend with mosquitoes is when it was absolutely downpouring. We were using off deep woodsman deet, which claims to be 98% and it was more or less useless. We reapplied it several times to no avail. The course ... more
Thanks a ton, you guys are great. Hope to get out on get beat up by these courses and the mosquitos.
Larry Dalimonte May 17, 2013 at 5:40am
Lost 2 discs during the tournament last Saturday on river's edge. One on hole 12 and one on hole 15, both in the standing water. Both are marked with my contact info would love to get them back thank you.
Yes and yes! I'm assuming you're not a master psychic so you've seen them somewhere reciently?
i have them both, they both were found where water used to be, and where my disc landed lol. they smell terrible, tried to wash smell away with no luck
Phil "Puttimus Prime" Common May 17, 2013 at 4:45am
I would strongly suggest anyone thinking about playing here in the near future to reconsider. I have never witnessed so many mosquitoes in one place at one time in my entire life. It was completely overwhelming and miserable. I love the course and drove over an hour to play it, but walked off after 7 holes of Rivers Edge cause we couldnt take it anymore. Hopefully the park staff takes immediate action to solve this problem or i dont think i will be enjoying this amazing course for many months.
Skeeters aint bad this way. league tomorrow, Phil. DGLA points. 6:00 tee.
Ya i saw that. Been a long time since ive come out to ur place. i work till 6 tomorrow so i wont make it but im planning on it sometime soon
Tried to play Devils Den at Burchfield on Wednesday and mosquitoes were unbearable could only get through 8 holes.
Michael Wagner May 2, 2013 at 9:57pm
LOL i didn't know.. I talked rinker about it an was hole 10
Michael Wagner May 2, 2013 at 7:52pm
lost a voodoo wizard on 9 near long basket ...
- br33zy - April 29, 2013 at 7:02pm
Lost a blue champ x-out destroyer 4/27 on hole 10 Rivers Edge course. Reward for return.
check with the park staff, if they find a disc they hang on to it til someone claims it.
