The Pye Brook Disc Golf Course in Topfield is great for beginners, intermediates, and even the more experienced players. As much of it wraps around a sports field, it provides an ideal environment to test your distance driving. Though this course caters more to RHFH throwers, it is wide open enough to practice all throwing styles. Two sets of tees are offered, reds and blues, although only one may be playable depending whether or not a ball game is going on. The near new Chainstars have numbered flags on top of them. This is extremely helpful because on a couple of holes multiple baskets are in view. The metal tee signs are in pretty decent shape and give the distance and par for the long tees. The short tee's info is marked at the tee pad on a painted 4x4. The pin placement on probably half the baskets is very creative and will make you work hard to birdie. There is a really good use of water (when it isn't dried up) and O.B. There is a good mix of holes from both sets of tees. There are often baseball and socccer games on the main field, but have never seemed to interfere with the DG sessions. A great place to play, no fees, and there usually isn't too much traffic if you don't mind driving the distance. |
