#14 isn't even the worst hole out there for that. Holes 8 and 11 come to mind way before #14.

I find 14 and 18 to be the most difficult but my strong throw is LHBH. Hole 8 is one of my faves because if I can make it through the gap in the four Xmas trees then I'm looking good for par or maybe a birdie attempt.
The mistake I see most golfers make on 11 is to try to make it over that line of barrier trees up on the step up. Most don't. I drive with my putter for precision and try to get it on the left side up on the step which gives me a good chance for a clear approach and a three on the hole.

Of course that's all just theory - Most of the time SeaTac still kicks my ass!

I'm new to the area and I'm glad I started reading this old thread. It helps me with understanding the Seattle disc golf scene. So, correct me if I'm wrong.

Chainbangerz has an organized club and cares for Sea-Tac and Lakewood.
Terrace Creek was installed and is cared for by a disc golfer named Lowell, but there is no club. Silver Lake, Mineral Springs and Howling Coyote are just fun courses everyone visits once in a while, but Howling Coyote will be gone soon. The West Sound Association has all those courses under control. Um... Lake Stevens is supposed to be cool, but no club?

Is that basically it? There is no unified and organized Seattle disc golf club, or Washington disc golf club? There's only Chainbangerz club and West Sound Association?

Maybe I should have started a new thread.

I hate to be the one to tell you this but...

don't believe everything posted on an internet forum to be the only truth.

That being said West Sound really does have their sh!t together.

People have tried but you'll find the area is plagued currently with intransigent personalities, jelousy, and more than a dash of player entitlement with a very, very low percentage of golfers willing to take initiative.

Sorry to be harsh, but thats the scene as I see it

Second that West Sound (and Mason Co) is moving forward in a big way and Chainbangerz has made awesome progress in Seattle probably more in even just the past few months than has happened in a while. But you still find that unity isn't really the Seattle area way
