Disc Golf Course Design,
Installation, Management
We can supply equipment
and offer our course design experience to make your
disc golf course one that will be safe, challenging
and fun to play.
If you are considering
setting up a 'pay to play' course, you may be interested
to know that there is evidence of courses paying for
themselves within the first 12 months of opening.
If you are interested
to start a course, please email
us with your enquiry.
Basic
Equipment Considerations
Tee areas, targets (baskets), signage, discs.
Ideal
Locations For Courses
1. Unused, undeveloped or underused parkland or woodland
area.
2. Tended parkland, grassland, wooded areas, undulating
terrain.
3. A course benefits from natural hazards such as trees/shrubs/lakes.
4. Anything above 10 acres has potential.
5. Point of contact - somewhere for players to hire
out or purchase golf discs + accessories.
6. Amenities close by ie toilets, food/drink, parking.
Course
Design
This is a key factor in defining your course and making
it a success. In a perfect world, the perfect course
offers challenge and enjoyment for players of all levels
and abilities; the course plays a major role in achieving
this.
We advise that anyone
new to disc golf should seek advice from the most experienced
course designer available to them.
Discology can help with
course design assistance or we can put you in touch
with experienced disc golfers who may be able to volunteer
their time to help with course design.
Types
Of Course
Basically, there are two types of course, Recreational
Level and Championship Level.
The length of the holes is the most obvious difference
between the two - a Championship course will be significantly
longer to cope with the extra distance that the better
players are able to throw.
Recreational Course -
requires approx 10+ acres.
Championship Level Course - requires approx 20+ acres.
The land area and type
of terrain presents limits to what can or can't be achieved.
If the land is suitable, a Recreational and Championship
course can exist together, offering challenge to all
levels of player and also providing the opportunity
to host events/tournaments at all levels.
