I fear I may have left a white Challenger with the older-school blue bar stamp (challenger written across the front) on it either on Chuck D or the 8-hole Picnic course the weekend before last. It's a little beat in, so I'd like to get it back! WYNGAARD is written in sharpie on the back. Thanks!

Only problem with moving 18 into the woods on the right side is the Black Tee for 1 is insanely far. I can foresee most of the big dawgs throwing right into the Red Tee or close to it (if they don't nail it straight). Or even someone from the White Tee just letting go too late and releasing to the right. There is a good cluster of trees though. But I agree, there can be some great shots from inside the woods. And you're welcome.

Scott R and Mike E thanks for the feedback on the red tees. I just went through them again (in my head) and I think the two holes we want to target right now are 6 and 18. Hole 6 red is kind boring and on sloped ground. I like Scott Ransleys suggestion of moving it to a flat area and having it play over the pond (or around if you want to play safe) from the top of the hill.

Hole 18 red also could change as the hyzer does seem redundant and it there is a lot of opportunity to make a cool ... more

Hole 18 red also could change as the hyzer does seem redundant and it there is a lot of opportunity to make a cool shot from the woods on the right side of the fairway. We will be looking for a good tee location from this area.

Hole 16 red has been moved recently so you guys can check that out now.

Scott you make good points about making the tee area for the reds visible from the black and white. We will be working with the park to see if we can open up some sightlines to avoid conflicts.

Thanks all and keep the feedback coming in.

If I didn't have to work all week, I would be playing the new pins :) Will have to wait for the weekend I reckon

***PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT***
When playing the Picnic Course please be aware that this is SHARED USE AREA. If you encounter other park users on some of the holes please inform them kindly what you are doing, and ask them nicely to let you throw. SKIP THE HOLE if necessary and come back to it later. Other option is to "send a blocker" to deflect shots from hitting other park users. PLEASE TREAT THE OTHER NON-DISC GOLF PARK USERS WITH RESPECT AND CARE. It is a privilege to even have this course and if we screw up then the course could be gone forever.

Picnic course is in, just got the word..

Matt "The Spider" Swider    November 15, 2010 at 6:33pm

I only know that when they ripped it out after the tourney last month, they did it at 9am. So hopefully, we should be playing by 11 or 12.

Andy Bawol    November 15, 2010 at 6:12pm

Anyone know what time the Picnic will be in today?

Matt "The Spider" Swider    November 15, 2010 at 7:48am

Picnic course should be in tomorrow. I can't wait.

When I originally went & played the Red Tee's earlier this week, my caddy was being a bit of a grump so I had to cut it short. But I came back out Han Solo this morning to review this course Proppa.

The Red Tee's @ Chuck D offer a nice challenge for the newer player or for someone that is a first timer at Indy. Most the holes are a blow out for the seasoned player, but IMO still offer a decent challenge on a number of holes for us. I like a number of the tees and how they a ... more

The Red Tee's @ Chuck D offer a nice challenge for the newer player or for someone that is a first timer at Indy. Most the holes are a blow out for the seasoned player, but IMO still offer a decent challenge on a number of holes for us. I like a number of the tees and how they are positioned. Hole 3 is near the old White tee, so it's a good distance from the pin. Same goes for Hole 5, and with a section of trees scattered in the middle, you still have to play smart. Hole 6 is probably my least favorite positioned tee. Pretty much an easy deuce, even for the noob. Hole 10 has always been a good hole and off setting to the left of the White tee, continues to offer that challenge shot. I like hole Hole 11 was up, but it was maybe a little too close. I also liked how Hole 17 was tucked into the woods, making you throw straight to come out. All and all a good time, no matter what level of player you are. This is a great way to warm up if you are a seasoned player, getting you nice & loose for either the white or blacks. Cheers

Will be out there later today with my caddy, we'll be reviewing the Reds.

Matt "The Spider" Swider    November 9, 2010 at 7:17pm

Anyone up for a round today? Say 11 or 12? Just for fun or as part of a review. Anyone?

Mike Even    November 9, 2010 at 7:06pm

Heading out the review & play the Red's tomorrow afternoon (work is a little slow this week). Scott's review below though will be tough to match :) Dude nailed it perfectly.
