Disc Golf
An entry-level course winding through a stand of pines and live oaks. Easy to navigate and difficult to lose a disc (no underbrush). The “natural” fairways range from 215’ to 330’. #1 has a short alt. tee for seasonal use during the Optimist’s Christmas tree sale. Not a single living tree was cut to build this course.
