Default 9th Hole At Greenway!

The basket is being installed RIGHT NOW so you should all head over and check it out. Just a short hole, only about 175 ft, but at least we finally have a 9th! I'll be out there by 10 or 10:15

Does it take you further away from hole 1?

no shit! they brutalized that course.

I was in the hood with 2 hours to kill a couple of weeks ago, so I thought that I'd run over there and play it. Big mistake, I'll just be hitting lunchtime from now on...

This is the course that was put in the ground to keep the disc golfers away. I am certain of it.

Maybe they put it on the way back by the tee at 6. Like instead of going back across the bridge. Or they actually put it back by the basketball courts.

It's right after hole 1, the basket isn't actually in yet, but it's about 175'.

Yup, they will.

I don't understand why everyone hates Greenway so much. Yeah, it's a long walk back to hole 1, but in my opinion, it's better than having no course.

At least they're trying! THPRD really wants to have a disc golf course, and (believe it or not) Greenway is actually the best fit. With all that's going on in that park you couldn't blame them if they just pulled the course.

So it plays in the same direction as hole 1, towards Hall Blvd?

True, it is better than no course at all. I do enjoy it. I use Greenway as the training ground for my wife getting involved in the game. I think they need to put a course in Tualatin.

Sorry everyone I'm up in Washington. Anyways, the ground sleeve is in the ground and the basket will be put in on Monday. As Chase stated, it's about 175' throwing towards Hall. It was the only place they'd let us put another hole so I did my best to design a little bit of challenge with the area I had. Teepad for the new hole and NEW teepad for hole 3 will be put in on tuesday. The new teepad for hole 3 will make it a straight 230' shot throwing from near hole 1 teepad.

Despite the fact that everyone has so much hate against Greenway, I still don't think it's a terrible course. It's worth playing since there isn't anything else close. Just check it out sometime next week or next weekend.

Wha?! Moving teepad 3? That stinks. I enjoy driving across the path through the trees. I suppose people are all scared about getting hit, but if they pay attention and the players pay attention it is no big deal.

I think it will alleviate some of the backups. Hole 3 is currently one of the biggest waits on the course in my opinion.

Appreciate the updates Brody, after my move this is my new home course.

They haven't done the teepads or updated tee signs yet.
