Damn people, a person just gives his oppinions and every one jumps on him. I tell you the discgolfers here in wichita are the harshest I have seen of anywhere. He may be wrong heck he could be right but either way its his right as an american to have an oppinion and to express that oppinion . . My wife is right about alot of you people . You don't make others feel welcome at all. Your rude and act like little children.
I'll stick around as long as I damn well please.The Captain wrote:You should probably keep moving on then.
And I'll continue to maintain that while the course designers did absolutely the best job they could to make an expert design from the available land, and make for a course that is a true joy to play, intuitively it seems back-asswards to move a tee away from trees and remove one of the few tree hazards on what is mostly a wide open course.
And perhaps some of the memory-impaired have forgotten that a decision has already been made:

Whoa whoa whoa. Don't get offended. I've read nearly 200 forum entries in the United States in Canada since 1995 and have written a review / critique of everyone of them. I'm a member of the Air Capital Disc Golf Club and have provided refreshments and entertainment to several golfers worldwide, and am currently in the process of drinking beer in the northeastern corner of ICT.

Now you guys see why it's a bad idea to turn design issues over to the masses.
It's really easy to argue over design issues (insulting is a different story), because everyone has a different vision. Experienced course designers do share a lot of opinions on positive/negative attributes on course design. The biggest problem we face is that most new courses that are going in are intentionally without the consult of an experienced designer. New concepts are not getting enough exposure yet. For one thing, we need to get past "everything is a par 3" if our sport is going to get to the next level. Until then, at least we could design good par 3's, those that give good chances for both 2's & 4's.

I agree mike .Other than those courses that aren't layed out by a designer, courses now days seem to be getting a little harder than courses that were built say ten years ago or more when par three was the norm. The oler course though seem to be getting easyer, discs alone have out grown most courses. I think we should leave the hole 13 harder not make it easyer. As far as how easy herman hill is I guess I realy can't say. I don't play there as much as alot of others fron wichita cause I hate the wind for personal reasons. It just never stops whistleing in my hearing aid thats why I don't go out there much.
