Pretty tough course to navigate but fun holes. Is there a map anywhere?

Played today. All baskets are up. There are a couple of new rubber short pads. Course fairly groomed. No issues with mosquitoes. Some poison ivy. Hole 16 could trim down the fairway grass. No really deep grass that will swollow up discs.

David Peterson   June 17, 2017 at 1:15pm

Was told that they will add short pads and baskets to all holes on September.

Marty McKibbin   July 5, 2017 at 2:35pm

one or the other, we are undecided

Marty McKibbin    February 15, 2017 at 12:33pm

All of the baskets area back in the ground. Work days are happening again to open some more lines and make existing fairways wider. Some short tee pads are also in the works

Eric "Downtown" Brown   February 15, 2017 at 4:50pm

Nice update! Thank you Marty! Still the hardest course I have played out of about 130.

ken "sega salt" moote   February 16, 2017 at 9:47am

most baller course and yes one of the hardest if not the hardest I have played. thanks!

Christopher McIntosh    August 15, 2016 at 8:21pm

Anything new going on with this course? Are there three baskets still missing from it? I haven't been there at all this year.

Brandon Hart   August 22, 2016 at 10:03pm

Yes 3 baskets are still missing

Curtis Skeels   October 30, 2016 at 2:42pm

Played through 6, 3 & 6 are still missing baskets, decided to go somewhere else...

3,6,15 is correct

Marty McKibbin   March 25, 2016 at 11:45am

It's a shame. We have the request in for money to replace them. If u have any questions. Call me 269-245-9397. There might be maps at hole 1 , might not be

Steve Nolff   March 25, 2016 at 12:14pm

Thanks Marty. I printed a map off DGCR, should be enough to get through the course. I am looking forward to checking the course out.

Wade TF    October 23, 2015 at 4:19am

Baskets 6&15 are missing from the course. Apparently the baskets were stolen over the weekend. If anyone knows the where-abouts of the two baskets please contact Leila Arboretum and the local police. It's absolutely terrible to see a free and beautiful course get vandalized or stolen from. Please do the right thing if you know who is responsible for the theft.

Wade. We are doing everything to Not pull the course. We may pull it for the winter to weld all the post to the sleeves.

Wade TF   November 17, 2015 at 11:15am

cool Marty. thank you man!

Steve Nolff   December 5, 2015 at 6:19pm

Reported on DGCR that hole three was also missing. This was from a review written and played today. Dbags!!! If someone knows this is true, it would be good to validate it here for traveling players. Good luck finding these guys.

Thanks to all the staff for hosting this tourny. Great job. I will definatly be back again

two cars were broken into today... be careful!

that's no surprise, I am sorry to hear that. There are some weirdos who hang out at the arboretum. I know when I go to disc there I bring a knife with me. That's no joke.

Marty McKibbin   March 30, 2015 at 6:20am

where were you parked ? What time was it ?

Caleb Bowen   April 18, 2015 at 9:05am

Sunday @ 2-3:00

Christopher McIntosh    March 5, 2015 at 2:07am

Course is very difficult and is not beginner friendly. I go there a few times and I am a beginner, I go there just because I am a beginner and I do not belong there. Is an awesome course though, the only thing that would make it even better are amateur or short pads on most of the holes and a bathroom somewhere. Either bring a map or play someone who knows the course or your going to get lost easily. The teesign on hole #8 is incorrect the sign shows the fairway doglegging to the left. It s ... more

The club is hosting a tournament at Leila Saturday, March 28th. The event is a PDGA sanctioned tournament so it will draw some good players from in and around Battle Creek. You should check it out!

Christopher McIntosh   March 13, 2015 at 8:51pm

Hi Chad, I was wondering about that tournament could I come to it and just be a spectator? I was also looking at the tournament and saw it had divisions. I am a beginner one year into playing is there a division that is suited to that? I think it is called the recreational division if I am getti ... more

Anthony Lewis   March 19, 2015 at 3:36pm

Yes Chris you would belong in rec or AM3 as it probably is one the register. Definitely not just for pros, anyone is welcome

Patrick Fulkerson    September 11, 2014 at 4:03pm

I donate a disc or two each time I play here, but I wouldn't change a thing about the course. I just need to play smarter.. Keep up the good work to those working on the course. (Current list of lost discs. Champion yellow Firebird, Blizzard Destroyer)

Marty McKibbin   September 12, 2014 at 12:30pm

I will keep an eye out. I plan on working on the course this weekend.

There were three of us who designed it. We are working on a B tier for 2015. There are no mandos on the course. There are out of bounds to contend with . The roads and sidewalks play as rivers, on them is out of bounds. over is safe.

Christopher McIntosh   March 4, 2015 at 4:01pm

any chance of putting ameatur pads on some of the holes? Beginners like me will thank you for it, I know things like that cost money and a port-a-john would be awesome also.

Marty McKibbin   March 6, 2015 at 6:28am

it has been discussed. nothing is planned yet. Thanks for your suggestion. I will bring it up at our next meeting.
