2018 Season Kick-Off Updates: Wet Weather Delays Opening
Projected Opening Pushed Back to May 12th Due to Weather
A late winter and wet spring has led to a delayed opening from May 5th to May 12th for the Smuggs Disc Golf Center. After a final assessment this Thursday, the decision was made to give the course more time to dry out. Thankfully, the coming weekend and subsequent week of weather looks like it will have its fair share of warmth & sun, so with buds on the trees, we should see things dry out quickly! If we are able to open the course prior to the 12th, we certainly will! Stay tuned to our social channels to stay up to date!
Since we are pushing opening day back, we’ve decided to push the early-bird pricing window back as well! Early Bird Membership rates for 2018 will be extended through May 14th!

Brewster Ridge Open 6 Registration Opening Friday, May 4th
The 6th Edition of the Brewster Ridge Open will be the BIGGEST installment yet. This year, the “BRO” will be a 2-day PDGA B-Tier complete with craft beer, local food, and live music! Open to 144 competitors, this is sure to be a mini-GMC. Speaking of the GMC, did you know that it’s not happening this year? Yeah, we had to replace it with a little something called the Pro Worlds.
