UPDATED 4.29.09: The 18-hole course is now fully complete and already getting a lot of play. And the good reviews are already coming in. Here's one with hole-by-hole video of the course from Cubby's Disc Golf World: "Headed up to the Field of Dreams Disc Golf Course in Great meadows , NJ. It was a 2 hour drive to the course but well worth it. It was a hot day getting to 90 degrees. The last time I played this course it was a 9 hole course, it is now an 18 hole course. The layout is great and there is a nice mix of wooded and open holes, short and long. This course has something for everyone. My hats off to all those involved for all the hardwork that went into this course."-Cubby (click for video)  UPDATED 12.30.08: Happy Holidays from everyone at THE FOD... The GALLERY and ABOUT pages have been updated with new pictures and more detailed information. Hopefully the weather will allow for many workdays on the second nine this winter. It's coming along great. UPDATED 12.17.08: We are now accepting sponsors for the tee signs on the second nine. Hurry up and get your company's logo on the course, or just make a donation to help out with construction costs. Download the FOD sponsor form PDF here. Thanks for your support.  UPDATED 11.21.08:  Here is the aerial layout for the new and improved 18-hole version of the course (under construction right now!). Rico says, "The new layout is going to have a little something for everyone: including that monster open par 5 that a lot of people love (not my favorite, but it helps balance the course): it will be 750 ft from the whites and 1,000 ft from the deeps. The course will play roughly 1/3 open and 2/3 woods....which I think is ideal." Stay tuned for more details. UPDATED 10.4.08: BIG UPDATE We'd like to thank everyone who came out to the opening two weeks ago. There were a lot of young players who should be disc golfers for life. It was a big success. Here's a shot of the ribbon cutting...  We'd like to share some of the internet reactions that the course has been getting. Check out these online reviews... -Cubby's Disc Golf World -DGCourseReview.com Here's a great "letter to the editor" from one of the opening day participants (Click to enlarge):  And here's a link to a hackettstownlife.com discussion board post about the course. People are truly loving them some FOD. If you haven't played it yet, you really need to make it out (and feel free to send us an email with any suggestions for improvement--there's a contact link on the left). Also, check our our new and improved gallery section for select photos from the course. As well as two new pages for beginners... What is disc golf? and Where can I get discs? Lastly, we are proud to announce that preliminary plans for the second nine are in development. Be sure to check this site for updates and photos as the FOD transitions into an 18-hole course. Thanks for visiting, hope to see you out there! NEWS ARCHIVE |
