Brand new course going in - work to do!

If you've seen the news posting on this site about construction of a new course in San Marcos, that's the one I'm working on. We have about 8 acres of open space on a hillside that is a powerline easement. A few trees, but not many. Last week my son and I went out to stake the tee and basket locations and measure the hole lengths. Today we'll go back out to play the holes with some friends and tweak the locations a bit. Construction will start Jan. 2nd, so we're pretty excited.

This course is not intended to be a championship-level course. We don't have the greatest piece of land to work with, but in Southern California, having ANY land to work with is a coup. We have designed a 9-hole course that is aimed at new players, especially kids. This is the first no-fee disc golf course in North San Diego County, and will be the only no-fee course in the County when it opens. Mind boggling, huh?

Best thing is - it's just a few minutes drive from both work and home for me!!!

Hey Rizbee... Good stuff. I lived in San Diego for 7 years and even though I loved Morley field I hated that it was the only course in the area. San Diego could use more courses, there's enough open/canyon space to do a lot there.

Hey, give us an address so we can look at the satellite pics! I've designed three 9-holers so far, you can do a lot with them. What fun!
