• Sedgley Woods Disc Golf, Philadelphia

    August 29, 2024 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 79 °F

    Today we went to play at Sedgley Woods. It is in Fairmount Park which is like the Central Park of Philadelphia.
    It is the oldest permanent disc golf course on the East Coast, and one of the oldest in the world. It was established in 1977. The oldest in the world is Grand Oaks in LA, CA, established in 1975.
    They had a token old basket there, but thankfully they were not like that in the course. They did have older baskets without bands on top though; but they were normal size. Tee pads were bit short for me, so I had to adjust some stuff.
    I played better than yesterday, but not great. My putts improved, but forehands got worse. And, the trees in PA just seem to love me. ❤️
    We saw lots of squirrels and chipmunks in the course, and even a stray cat. I got a + 17.
    Weather was better and I brought a snack and more water, so I held out much better today. Plus the course was relatively flat compared to yesterday.
    Good par 3 course though.
