Perhaps the North Idaho Disc Golf Club would be a good suiter for your membership - especially if you live in the Valley. They have been doing many good things to help make Corbin Park DGC and Cherry Hill DGC better, have had input with Heyburn State Park about their possible addition of disc golf and is in VERY good standing with both the city of Post Falls and Coeur d'Alene. We all seem to work pretty wel together despite our differences and differences of opinion.

Just wanna say,LOVE CORBIN!!!. got my first tourney plastic there last year (10th AM dev at the open) but live on south hill Spokane 5 min from work at SHMC. Hope to play the Corbin open again if scheduling permits. I have to say I was very impressed at the lack of politicking at the tourney and the fun had by all. I would love to get more serious but don't play/compete Sunday so most tourneys are out for me unless they start doing Friday/ Saturday tourneys ( but that is a whole other hijacking in the making).
It is a very tempting prospect especially since my goal this season is to play cherry hill and Farragut (trying to convince the wife and kiddies that it would make for a great camping trip)

So for now, I will remain DG-clubless and hope for the best. I will have to hope I can get good enough without the support of the clubs, but may just end up asking for DG lessons for my b-day this year and more tourney playing money next year (or maybe PDGA membership for starters)

Back to the thread. Drove past sekani yesterday and found the drive fully worthwhile, now just waiting for the snow to melt to get out to explore the new course. Is there a course map that would make a first timers going any easier (the only way to get around downriver my first time was with the map in my pocket and a guide to point out the less obvious next tee placement). And bucket courses... just have to hit the bucket? So the challenge is in the terrain and fairway?
Thanks for the help, advice &, whatnot.

Ben, good to see that you love Corbin. A fine jewel of a course imo! Check out the Corbin Park thread............., TW

Yeah, I have a number, use it.. lol First tee is right above the upper lot. Follow the pink ribbons from the buckets to the next tee. Hit the bucket move on. Flags mark the tee's for the most part. snow marked some down but most are findable.. I think they all are.. Some only have one though.

Has anyone put together a satellite map of the course showing the layout yet? Now that the snow is melting off I would like to get up there and check it out!

Played Sekani again today. Liked some of the changes since the first time I played. So when do we break ground and get some baskets in?

Simmeltron · #88 February 21st, 2012, 09:35 AM

I just lost my white DX Roc at Sekani yesterday as it was getting dark. After finishing the course, we had a driving range session just behind bucket 18 (of Jamboree) into the big field. I *thought* the disc anny'd towards the treeline to the right but had no luck recovering it. If anybody happens upon it next time they are out I'd greatly appreciate getting it back! Thanks!

Name and number should be on disc.

SeanT00 · #89 February 21st, 2012, 07:45 PM

I had a wild throw from hole 15 (the long throw from the rock)? Anyways, got a dark blue Boss stuck way up in the first tall tree to the right. I'm guessing the wind will knock it down eventually, but the number on the back is an old one. Name should be Sean T and new number is (509) 232-9648 if anyone comes across it. Love the course!!

Thanks

From the Sekani FB group (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Disc-Golf-Uprising-p...10030465792965)

"Disc Golf Uprising is holding it's first club meeting Monday, March 5th at 6:30 at Smacky's on Broadway. It is west of the Broadway exit just past Zips. They have delicious sandwich's. BBQ is the special that day and I have to say it is amazing! We will have lots of new information and a nice game plan on how we can build our new disc golf courses. New memberships will be available. There are several levels of membership's available including family discount memberships. Bag Tag's will also be available for order to use during our weekly leagues. Hope to see you there!"

Played at Sekani yesterday. First time in quite awhile. Love the changes that have happened on the lower course. The lower par four (I think it's called whoop de doo's) is fantastic. Especially from the pro pad. Favorite new hole on the course.

With that being said, if somebody happens to come across my orange ESP Predator, it'd be great if they'd snag it. Threw it on a giant hyzer off 14 and stuck in the top of the split tree's. I'm pretty sure it's going to be stuck for awhile. Name and number are on it but the number no longer works. I'm pretty sure most people know who I am so if you see me and you have it, reward will be given.

Is Sekani open for public play or is it by appointment or for tournament only. I am curious to check it out.

Totally open for public play. Buckets in place with tee signs (hole number, par, and distance) on trees. Last time I played Jamboree (the lower course) there were little pink streamers leading from the bucket to the next tee. Enjoy!

Great Thanks. I will look to get a group out there soon.

What is best way for those of us w/o facebook to get involved and help? This course is close to home and would love to help make it the beautiful site it can be. :-)
