How do Forestry programs on private land affect your ability to install a disc golf course? Does anyone have any experience/knowledge in this area? For instance, Vermont has a Use Value Adjusted program for forested land, but I can’t find any info on what you Can do on the land. I’m also interested in forestry programs in Maine, Colorado, Wisconsin and Michigan.

If I were to buy 40 acres that is in a forestry program, I love the idea of preserving the trees, especially the older ones. But I’d also like to be able to cut saplings under 2” to make a DG course.

I'll be putting the discs that came in into inventory today. Feel free to stop in to see what we have.

Two 18 hole safari rounds at West Park, in Joliet, IL. Yes that's right, I said 18 holes at West Park. I'm changing it up again this year, and setting up a safari course at West Park. Please be aware that some of the holes will be made more difficult. Expect the unexpected.

Safari layout for The Wild West is tentatively set. I have marked all but one of the temp tee boxes and basket locations around the course with orange paint so you can find them. Below is a description of hole locations and OB's. Please note that this is a tentative setup, and I reserve the right to change any of the holes prior to tee off on Saturday.
