Do you mean hardest to get a 3 on every hole, or hardest to get the listed par?

To score what at?

Rooster East comes to mind as being one of the easiest courses to score at... if you're into that kinda thing.

I would say Milo is the hardest course we have in the state now that Oakway is gone.

Did you mean rooster west? rooster east is in the super thick forest and very difficult to even see 70% of the baskets you are throwing at.

If you're looking to score some meth, I'd have to nominate Hoover Park in Newberg.

It is, but it's not harder than McIver.

Of course, part of it depends on your throwing style; my best shots are the 100- to 250-footers, and I found Tadmor much easier than did my friend who relies on long drives. McIver favors big arms, Tadmor favors finesse.

Default Milo

I played Milo last weekend and I am still sore. I gave up on keeping score after 9. Maybe next time I will do better since now I know the course a little better.

I haven't been to lucky at any of the courses. Maybe I'm too busy playing disc golf and having my wife with me doesn't help either. That, AND being old I'm sure is a detriment.

Sain Scoggins (Hagg) is pretty hard. I think overall, though, McIver is harder. Gwillim - whose skills I respect a lot - finally managed even par (81) at McIver. Given that it is a 27 and Hagg just 18, I gave the nod to Milo.

You're right, though... that's a HARD course. I am within 6 strokes of the record there, though, and am nowhere near that at Milo, I am sure.

I think McIver is definitely harder than Hagg. The meadow holes at Hagg really aren't difficult at all.

(I gotta get out there before March 1 so I can save the $5 parking fee!)

Or at least wouldn't be as difficult with level and/or cement tee pads.

I haven't made it out there since the remake so hopefully it is much better.

I’ll not be bent to lawlessness. Mark it nought, if we be men of honour.
