Look for these arrows in the trees near the baskets, they will guide you in the general direction to the next tee.

Old six is gone, new six is old seven, follow flagging from near the old #6 tee to the #7 teebox, which is now signed #6.
The hole is a narrow lane to a basket heavily guarded by trees and elevated ten feet on a berm.

Eight , for now, lives only in the minds of the Arlington Disc Golf Club.

Nine is a dogleg left.

To get to the tenth tee, walk back towards the parking lot, then right to the tee, not the other direction as the map shows.

Ten is the first of the long, open field holes, with no trees, encouraging big drives. Lanes from the tee to the basket are mowed, all the surrounding tall grass is out of bounds. Halfway down the field fairways are widened circular landing zones.

Final turn to the basket
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3506/3918911846_53d2a75508_m.jpg

Sixteen is a long shot that follows a narrow winding path through the woods. This path is well travelled by people going from the parking area to the beach, most unaware of the golf course, so caution should be used on both the drive and approach shots here. Stop, look and listen before throwing.

Eighteen is a short narrow shot with a slight right to left hook, the lane is wide open and encourages ace runs.
