Just saw this on DGCR and Disc Golf Scene. Any of you Manhattan guys played this yet? Did they move the Riley Conference Center baskets here? I see that course is listed as gone now.

Moon Lake DGC
Re: Moon Lake DGC
Yep, you are right Scott.
The baskets from the conference center are at Moon Lake.
The conference center was not going to be mowed so a group of soldiers got approval to move to Moon Lake. They created a layout that requires a good variety of shots. It is a lot more fun and challenging than the old Ft. Riley course. There might be a few flow issues in a tournament, and you will want a map the first time you are there. I enjoy going to Moon Lake.
There is also a new 9 hole in Westmoreland. http://www.discgolfscene.com/courses/De ... ark/Hole_1
Some of the holes are kind of sketchy (through playground etc.). Probably not one you would make a special trip for but Rick & I had fun playing it.

Re: Moon Lake DGC
Is the new Ft. Riley course a fun play?
I still want to get something going the day before LAO...Don't know if that would be both 9 hole town courses....or maybe something out there.
Just saying

Re: Moon Lake DGC
I have fun out there. You might want to bring a couple of discs you don’t mind getting wet though
Maybe there will be two 18 hole town courses by the LAO?

Now that would be sweet!
Re: Moon Lake DGC
Realistically, I think you will see 18 fairways at one of the parks in the spring. The other one might take a while.
Re: Moon Lake DGC
If any body wants to play the Moon Lake course with a group of locals this winter, you could plan a visit during one of their (free) league events.
Basically speaking, between Ft. Riley and Manhattan there is a league round every Sunday afternoon through the winter months.
1st & 3rd Sunday of every month = league Warner Park (Singles league for points & bag tags. Visitors & new members always welcome)
2nd & 4th Sunday of every month = league at Moon Lake (Singles league, casual play)
Both leagues tee time is at 1:30pm sharp.

Come to Manhattan. Play our courses.
