What!! No picture of Jub?

Excellent article! It puts disc golf and it's players in a good light.

The article said $7000 was spent on the course. $7K? Really?
That'd be real cool if Jub cleared 4 figures for his effort but I doubt that happened.

$7000 seems reasonable. $3600 for baskets alone. I'm not exactly sure how much fly pads are but they are much more expensive than concrete; I could see another $2000 for fly pads. Then you also have to factor in for paying city employees to prep, install and maintain the course. They also use equipment that guzzles gas or electricity. Everything costs money.

Actually 7k is a llitle low.

14 baskets @$420 + $45 /to ship=$6510
90' of fly mats (900 lbs) =$2200

Hey I stand corrected. My calculations & figures were off quite a bit.

I wouldn't even have to wonder if there was just more transparency

14
9 on course
1 Back up. (novel concept but I am getting use to it)
You mean to tell me people actually steal these?
4 ports for use in the Day Camp area.

And Yes, they do cost about $45 bucks each to ship.
