Disc Golfing in VA- Fair?
POSTED April 27, 8:44 PM



I have yet to visit a Virginia course. Checking out this site will give a good deal of options when you dwindle the search option to city and state. Being unfamiliar to the area leaves me at a loss for an experienced recommendation. Flipping through the courses the most centralized course to Fairfax is Burke Lake Park housing 18 pins under 300 feet. This seems like a friendly environment providing a concession stand in this course's surrounding State Park- amongst many other things.

Disc Golf does not seem to be a highlighted component of this state park, except in our mind. If this is your first time out, while being a Fairfax resident, the waived parking fee of $8 will make this a fitting introductory course. There are several other courses stemming from Burke. Calvert Road Park, a previously mentioned course can be reached with-in the hour, but it would be a shame to pass by 6 other courses to reach Calvert which is most likely similar in design to Burke Lake Park.

VA might be an interesting idea. From Baltimore 2 courses could be played in route  to Burke, winding down with a regular golf driving range. I am not much of a golfer without a disc except driving ranges.  I love to tear into a golf ball watching stress bounce off the targeted range car potentially running at a cool 40 blades of grass a gallon.

Now which courses to play?
