Please keep the park rules in mind at all
times, and please remain on good terms
with all park users as well. Please enjoy
it, but be respectful.

| Basket 7 On a small ridge, protected by the hedgerow and by low-hanging branches. |
The beautiful Joralemon Park's disc golf course is a real treat for the Capital
Region, offering a great mix of tight wooded holes and open fairways with
baskets in guarded positions - for players of all skill levels, yet challenging for
the more experienced players!
This course encourages players to learn new throws and expand your game!
It requires knowledge of a variety of shots from hyzers and anhyzers to
controlled distance drives and rollers. Most holes offer several choices for
your shot as well. Over 5300 feet in total distance!
The golf baskets are Lightning DB5s. Tees are gravel. The course is in a
constant state of maintenance, so the tees will get better as we work on them.
To join a work crew and volunteer your time maintaining the natural beauty of
this disc golf course and park, please keep an eye on the discussion forum to
see when work days are scheduled.
Enjoy the moss-covered rock outcrops, wildflowers, and mature trees. Explore
the many hiking trails that you'll find mostly across the road from the course
when you're done playing!

Tantalizing pictures of how much Skot Hanna's new Woodstock Disc Golf Course rocks! Beautiful wooded course that plays along
a steep rock cliff, so you throw off the cliff, up the cliff and into the cliff. As of November 2007, 18 holes have been installed. This
course is on private property, so please contact Skot before playing. Email Skot at skothanna@yahoo.com for details.
