Princes Park Disc Golf Course


A 9-hole course, total length still to be measured. Par is 3 on all holes.

If a lamp post is the pin, you must hit the metal pole, not the concrete base. Any disc coming to rest completely within a garden bed, or too high above the ground for the player to reach it, will be played from the nearest in-bounds position at which the player may stand; the player will be assessed one penalty stroke. Similarly, any disc which hits a person will attract a one stroke penalty.

Where a tree is a target, you need to hit the trunk below the first branch. Exposed roots do not count as the trunk of a tree.

The vertical projection of a disc onto the ground is used to determine its position. This means that a disc which comes to rest above the ground (resting on vegetation or some other object), but has a section which is directly over the concrete border of a path, is in bounds (unless it is too high to reach). Similarly, on hole number 4, an upside down disc which is not touching the edge of the inner circle but which has a projection which crosses the circle does not need another shot to complete the hole.
