Send it! The Disc Golf Thread

[Plankton]

A couple of friends of mine featured on the DiscTV YT page. I helped build a course with these two about a decade and a half ago. Their work ethic would cripple lesser men. Not even kidding. I'm almost certain they're cyborgs.

These video's were done sometime around the early 00's:

March is National Women's History Month, so I can't think of a better way to honor that than showcasing the pioneering women of the disc golf world here in the Disc Golf Thread. First up:

I'm back on this project and trying to get it finished and all polished up for a summer release. This thing is a behemoth and jumping back into it after being off of it since last year was a bit of a brain jolt. It's slated to be a virtual geocache environment with prizes for finding stuff, and it'll also be a way for people to see the course virtually before they come out to play it. Here's a quick run through of some of the progress:

I still have holes 4-12 and 19-27 out of a total of 27 to go.

There's a course near me that no one likes to play, so it might be the only one I play for a while. I have my own baskets too, so I'll probably make a trip out to a spot I've been scouting to put a course in (which is a total pipe dream), which is pretty secluded and void of people. Set up my baskets and create some nice fairway lines. There's a few water hazards too. It'll be pretty sweet and I'm actually looking forward to it.
