I love playing there. It's a workout. Arab, AL has a great course as well.

Will you be coming to East TN in 2025

My wife and I love that course. And we love that campground. We just don't play it as well as you do. Great video

The boombox question gave me a flashback to the vids you did a while back on disc golfer stereotypes. ‘chalk is life’ 😂 Seriously though, it may be loud house trance EDM, but you know it’s being pumped through a Bluetooth, ain’t nobody carrying around boomboxes still are they? If they are I hope it has dual cassette decks.

I heard, somewhere that the more popular courses tend to be the short par 3 courses. They’re great for beginners and recreational players. Most designers should focus on them as they can. Of course, great topography can change things. Maple Hill has multiple options.

Should have just gone back up to 9 tee and played it how it was supposed to be played and either keep the footage from paying it wrong or delete it. Would have been nice to see how the hole is supposed to be played. Great video!

Impressive foot putt!

Build new courses vs maintain existing properties. This is a concern, but it is not disc golf-specific. Businesses and governments go through the same thing. A mayor gets more press from cutting the ribbon at a new building than he gets for repairing the city water pipes. Building something new is fun. Doing upkeep on somebody else's stuff is boring and hard. The upkeep on decent small courses is super important for new players. Other old courses not worth saving should be pulled so the land can be reused.

Dig the video. Local pronunciation, gunnersvull.

I am not a fan of long courses. Would love to have you come to Bainbridge GA and play Bainbridge Oaks. Or come to Tallahassee and play Tom Brown

I would love to play that course!

In Minnesota there is starting to be some demand shortage between all the high level courses like Blue Ribbon Pines, The Preserve and more that is perhaps made worse by the long winters. The Maintanance costs for courses are not going down, and while there are more players than ever, the growth rate 2023-2024 slowed from it’s prior growth during 2020-2022. I know this because many big courses are offering steep discounts for early joiners and new members, because cash is needed for upkeep and basic staffing. Also, I mostly like to play smaller more technical courses because I am a beginner and my arm is sore with longer courses, those are more occasional.

I always think of Alabama famous for Matty O. Thanks for making it known for even more, love Ace Run pros coverage of last tourney too.

Seasons Greetings Hunter. Since you’re back down south again I wanted to follow up about a course I recommended to you a while back-Live Oaks in Sumter, SC. Upon further review I think it may be one you want to skip. The course is alright, but not great. Plus, I’m not sure if Sumter is a good destination for a van lifer such as yourself. Sorry that this is a long message, but I just wanted to redact my statement about “Whimsical” Live Oaks. Thanks, and safe travels

Agree with you about courses. I can have just as much fun playing a course that averages between 250-300 as I can at a course that averages 400-500.

If you make it to Louisiana, make sure to check out the bucket course in Monroe!

Thanks for the video Hunter. Enjoy your holidays!

Hunter Merry Christmas 🎄 If you are going west on I -10 ✅ check out New Orleans City Park

This course looks absolutely amazing

Beautiful course. Merry Christmas Hunter!

For your hole 9 breakdown you raise some good points. For me I would love some more well designed longer courses. I would love to try and actually play golf with some more par 4 and 5 holes. the only issue is not everyone can throw 400+ including myself so par is a bit arbitrary at that point (and so, in a way is my point.) I would love for the discgolf world to open up more in the course maintenance scene and to have things like fairs where groups get together and manicure and even redesign courses. It is probably happening but it feels like it doesn't happen enough. I am thinking of courses like the Beast with all that autumn olive and lines that just feel lost to overgrowth, and tee pads that are super dated.

Merry Christmas Hunter! Cheers🎉

You should be invited to, The Putting Game.

Great q&a. Have a good xmas and lets go for a great new year!

I love this course, I don't have the distance for most of the long drives, but the views make it for me

I care more about a course being memorable, having memorable holes, and courses being fun rather than length or difficulty. That being said I go back to my last thought. People rating courses wrong and/or based off of nostalgia or some type of weird virtue signally rating. Case: played champions pointe dgc in “grooveland” (clermont) florida a few days ago. One hole summed up the whole course, and honestly it was MEH, but it was rated 91st in the world. Same day i played okeeheelee park in west palm beach florida, and it was way better (not in top 100, and a 4.3 rated compared to champions pointe 4.6). I find it crazy how someone (for it to be a 4.6) gave champions pointe a 5 star. In what world is it even worthy of a top 1000? How bad are 20,000 other courses that champions pointe is ranked #91? I have local courses that I would rank better in savannah GA. Keep up the good work on your videos, appreciate getting to see someone play them rather than just relying Udisc ratings.

How many states/countries have you played in?

This looks like an awesome course!

Hole 18 is just demented. I like it. 🙂 Great looking course.

I enjoy both shorter to mid range courses are fun. But theres nothing like playing maple hill golds. So golds are fun too but not all the time.

The trace line on the put on 14 killed me😅

Love the birdie joke and look into the camera. Keep up the good work and glad you got the Kotuku back.

So you have certainly shown the need for some of our coming improvements, you were subject to common mistakes that are easy to make when first playing the course and yes, we are well aware of the flaws. I just can't stop tinkering with it lol. New Tee signs are coming. I've made a lot of good changes since I designed this course but they aren't yet reflected in signs because I'm actually not done changing the course, you missed out on holes 10 long and long hole 11. I will point out you played hole 5 short, hole 7 long Hole 8 is my favorite hole because it is demanding and will eat you up but is very birdy possible with two solid shots. I totally expected to see trouble for your first go on that one. Hole 9 = happens every time lol. But I'm about to stake out the boundary between 9 and 10 with foot tall stakes for a visual barrier, the two fairways will be out of bounds from one another and will be noted on the new signs. Sorry about Chris gets ultra focused on his work lol, but we couldn't do it without him, he's awesome. All roads play as rivers for future reference and will be reflected in the new signs. And I have a 10x20 net I'm about to figure out how to hang between 13 and 14s teepad, it's not common to get one crashing in there, but it does happen from time to time. I've already hung a net between 18 and 10s tees. My new par 5 pin on 16 was put in last spring and is one of my favorite changes on the course, I have put it back in one of the other two from time to time, but it's just not better in the shorter ones. Thank you a ton for the videos brother, I enjoy them. I've been wanting to see this course reviewed like this for a long time. I'm proud of this one, but I also know every flaw and thing I want to change and improve so I'm much tougher on it than others are. There are a LOT of awesome things coming at this course. If you are ever back in the area get in touch, come stay a couple days and let me show you around, you're going to be blown away. And the new tee signs are going to be designed by a very talented sign designer and I'm excited! The other holes are designed, now I just need funds and time! And some volunteers to clear fairways :) My goal was never to be ranked highly, that was a pleasant surprise, but with the future stuff I'm bringing it! We're a very small operation trying to accomplish some big things, so please bear with us as we grow.

I think courses might be getting too long for most players. It is ok to play long courses if teepads suit the various divisions.

Marry Christmas that 18th looks so sweet down hill, will definitely need to look it up when the whole course is green

Craig’s bath is a discers nightmare lol

So couple thoughts on what you said from someone who has been playing 30+ years. Courses back in the day were designed way shorter & technical due to the constraints of the disc tech at the time. With the plastic tech & players learning proper throwing techniques right off the bat the sport has changed allot. When I started there was no youtube, you figured it out on your own. Those courses that are being neglected are usually the short par 3 style courses that present little to no challenge for the newer generation. The thing I wish people would get is that those short par 3 courses are what brings new players into the game. Locally we have a very short par 3 woods course that is our most popular (usually with newer players & older guys), in a close 2nd is a 10,000ft beast of a course that allot of the younger & longer throwers prefer. Not many new players are going to want to start out on a monster par 4 style layout & not get frustrated very quickly. Those local par 3's, short wooded courses are where 90% of us learned the game. Have a Merry Christmas!🎀

Thanks for taking the time to answer some of my caffeine-fueled questions! I feel the same way as you, if I can check off a couple sort of bucket list courses, cool, but really, I find the lesser known ones to be more fun than the big ones. Not always, but the couple I've played have been alright. If I could build a sweet course in my hometown, I absolutely would, but unless you're wanting to play in a bunch of corn/bean fields, we'd have to wander to southern Illinois to create something unique. If I really wanted to get wild and crazy, probably out in Utah or something. Somewhere beautiful with canyons and cool rocks. The only tournaments I'd want to run would be 2 or 3 disc challenge or just low key fun events, nothing sanctioned or anything. Love your best nature moment! That'd be amazing to see a moose in the wild. This was a great video, thanks for doing the Q&A!

It's gone 😂. I'd try too

I don't 😂 why I'm still standing here ..I can't see it 🤣

Holy hell 🤘😈 roll back savings

Big giant my guy. A short course is like another day of just same tosses

You mean your van down there 😂😂😂😂😂 ☠️

Ohhh nooo 😅. Rhyno saved the day

Niceee .. yeah my eyes when with your hand indeed 😂

I do not like these really long courses. I still want to have a working arm by time I'm 40 lol. I'm definitely not adding to the amount of birdies (pun intended) on those courses. A good course should have tight lines in the woods.

You wanna be quiet.. you pull out a megaphone 📣😂

Hunters in Guntersville 😅

Merry Christmas hunter 🎁🥏
