Does anyone ever play here? I've seen scant few people wandering around this "course" in the last two years.
In my opinion, the course is a waste. They don't even mow, which is either an effort to reclaim the area as more natural, or some kind of statement to the disc golfers. Though I think it would be odd, the latter seems probable since all the surrounding fields (property of CSU) are regularly mowed.
I have three proposals:
1. Spread the course out, crossing the street and playing around the ropes course and even into the big commercial lot (CSU Owned) south of the community garden that's got some elevations and a wooded irrigation canal. Perhaps a course with the understanding that it is "temporary" in case they plan to develop the land. They'll obviously be worried that a successful course could stand in the way of $$$ commercial development later.
2. Find another piece of CSU property, possibly around the foothills campus/football stadium/CDC area and convince them to move the baskets. There's thousands of acres of CSU land in Larimer county.
3. See if they'll just sell the baskets. Either the club could buy them or individual looking for a backyard hole. This is with the thought that CSU would just as soon wash it's hands of disc golf.
What does anyone think?
?? Slam me, jamb me, d**n me. All opinions wecome and encouraged.
