I'm from Bradford, Pa and the closest place to play is 1:25 away.  This is a crazy idea but I'm in the process of purchasing vacant land, buying the baskets, Pouring the pads, paying for the signs and doing all the work (with some friendly help). I'm hoping at the very least the land turns out to be worth a lot more than I paid...   I have been planning on putting a course in the area for 2 years and have enough money now to do it.  Anyone know how much land I'll NEED in order to have a championship level course?  I have 27 acres and it is all or mainly dry. I kinda figured it is enough.  Also, is there a place that sells 18 baskets at a discounted rate?  I'd like to install top of the line everything from signs and pads to baskets...  I have a the wood to frame my pads, the wood posts for the signs, the poles and locks for the baskets, a tractor, and a sweet hookup on the signs at cost...  Questions  are: What is a good price on 18 baskets?  How do I become a dealer of discs, like Innova? Do I need to insure the course against someone pressing charges if they were to get hurt?  Is there any way around that if I do?  Any Tax breaks to be had? More questions coming thanks!

damn... i'm really jealous of you....
what an opportunity.
first- never forget how much fun you are having with creating your OWN course....

kudo's for being able to.

after reading all the responses to your discussion, i agree with everyone as far as layout/teepads/design goes..
i would only offer 1 suggestion-
depending on the land boundaries, have you considered double teepads and 9 baskets?
might be cheaper and more to your desires to have some par 5 holes laid out...

that may give you some sweet hole layout options...

just an idea..
the course i would design in my head (if i were in your situation) has an island green with a small pier to walk to it across a man-made lake...
got a tractor???

haha
