What is The Sasquatch at Broughton Nature and Wildlife Education Area like?

The Sasquatch at Broughton Nature and Wildlife Education Area is one of 270 PDGA-listed courses in Ohio, and one of 2 in Marietta itself. The layout runs 18 holes to a par of 54 over 4,176 ft, averaging roughly 232 feet per hole. That is a comfortable middle distance where fairway drivers do most of the work.

The terrain is mixed/varied — a mix of wooded and open holes, which puts the emphasis on a complete game. The variety is the test: you will need a tunnel shot on one hole and a full-power drive on the next, often back to back.

ThrowSpot rates the course forgiving overall, making it a good first course or a relaxed round. Shorter holes and open landing zones mean errant throws are usually recoverable, which is exactly what a newer player needs. 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 The Sasquatch at Broughton Nature and Wildlife Education Area?

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.
