Norris DGC

One of my favorite things to do is playing courses that I have never played. Sometimes you wind up at fun courses that you want to play again, and sometimes you end up at courses that you will play the one time and have no desire to return to. This was one of the fun ones!

One of my favorite things to do is playing courses that I have never played. Sometimes you wind up at fun courses that you want to play again, and sometimes you end up at courses that you will play the one time and have no desire to return to. This was one of the fun ones! Before playing Norris DGC I had not heard much about the course from local and regional disc golfers so I didn't have very high expectations for this one. I guess I just assumed that since not many were talking about it, this course wasn't that great of a course. Boy, was I wrong! In hindsight, I believe that less players travel to 9 hole courses and will pass by them to get to an 18 hole course. With this being said, I had an absolute blast playing this little 9 hole course! I didn't play very good in my round on the course because it was my first attempt at this layout and I was also only throwing 3 brand new discs that I had never thrown. You will understand why if you check out the video below. I'll be honest, I am the kind of guy who sometimes dislikes courses that I played bad on. This was not the case on this course. I played bad but still enjoyed the layout. Like, a lot. I have been thinking about this course ever since I played it and I cannot wait to go back and play it again. It's not one of those long and challenging tests of endurance it's just a super fun and relatively short layout. Plenty of ace possibilities and some really tricky fairways. Not only was this course super fun to play, when I was there, I saw several tee box frames and alternate baskets! It appears that in the future you will be able to visit this course and have Short AND Long tees as well as Short AND Long baskets! I absolutely love courses like this! The disc golfers in that area are doing an outstanding job with the land that was available for this course. I can't wait to go back and play this course again (and the new tee/basket locations) and I really hope that the work the locals are doing is being noticed and they are granted an additional piece of property to put another course on. If there were two courses in this area, I would frequent this course much more often. My hat is off to the people who designed this course and are continuing to improve on it. Don't sleep on 9 hole courses! This is one that I would definitely recommend!
