Ever have one of those days where you say to yourself,
“Self, I am going to go play a new disc golf course today.” Today was one of
those days for me. I decided that I knew I wanted to play a round of disc and
since I live in a land where you HAVE to drive at least an hour in any
direction in order to play. Well my adventure led me to take a jaunt west into
the land of “Great Places, Great Faces, South Dakota,” Watertown, South Dakota
to be exact. A mere hour and a half
drive straight west on Hwy 212 got me to my destination via a minor detour of
road construction.
I get to the course not knowing much other than it is an 18
hole course with the front nine being very open and great for beginning to
intermediate players and the back nine more advanced with some distance,
elevation, and water hazard opportunities.
Pro # 1:
Great Signage – Each hole had a clearly marked sign with where the
basket was and distance and par giving those who have never played the course a
since of direction. Never mind that most holes were pretty much straight ahead.
