What is Woodland Valley Disc Golf Course - Black Bear like?

Woodland Valley Disc Golf Course - Black Bear sits in Limerick, one of 3 courses in the city and 75 across Maine. Across 4,770 ft the course fits 18 holes at par 54, which works out to around 265 feet per hole. That is a comfortable middle distance where fairway drivers do most of the work.

The terrain is wooded/hilly — wooded fairways with real elevation change, which puts the emphasis on shot shaping in three dimensions. Elevation compounds every mistake: an uphill approach plays longer than the sign says, and a downhill tee shot carries much further than expected.

ThrowSpot rates the course moderately demanding overall, making it players who have their form mostly sorted. Expect a genuine test without being punished for every miss. This is the level most recreational players score best on. Most groups finish in about 110 minutes, though a busy weekend morning can add half an hour of waiting on the tee.

What discs should you bring to Woodland Valley Disc Golf Course - Black Bear?

For a course like this, a putter, two mid-ranges, and a couple of fairway drivers covers the majority of shots. The variety rewards a balanced bag over a specialist one. You will use almost everything you carry.

If you are not sure what matches your arm speed, the disc selector converts your throwing distance into a speed ceiling and specific mold recommendations. It is also worth reading the wind calculator before you play on a breezy day.
