Be a part of the first ever Cherry Hill Classic! This tournament is a first in many respects. It will be the first NEFA/PDGA event held on the premises and it will be the first tournament in a series of events run by Pure Flight at ball golf courses.

This is the perfect event to satisfy your disc golf winter itch as we have put together a SICK 8,400' Par 65 layout to be played on 18 DISCatcher Pro 28 Targets.
*This layout is subject to change pending on the status of the course (snow/melt), and there will likely be shorter tees for select divisions*

Pure flight looks like they'll be putting on my favorite tournaments this summer between Cherry Hill, Bousquet, Noho and Crane Hill Open. You guys should make your own mini series and crown the PF champ :wink: . Let me know if you need any help, I've also prob got some discs I can donate as CTPs.

I'm saying...


WOOOOOOT!

Jay, that concept is something that we're definitely interested in but find ourselves a little crunched for time in regards to being able to handle all the logistics behind it. If you're offering facilitation with something of that sort, that'd be awesome and we should chat. If you're offering help in regards to the tournament, also awesome and I'll let ya know!

Juj, you da best.

Got this on my calendar! Will pay/know more as the date grows closer.

Can offer up some CTPs, and a helping hand lugging baskets to their locations, if needed.

Trying like hell to make a March tourney and with my daughter's 3 gymnastics meets in March it is not going to be easy, but I might be able to swing this one with a couple other Vermont players. Hoping to see you all there!

Sick! Don't think I'll make it, but I'm hoping that someone from the Pure Flight extended crew does some filming. NEFA golf needs to be represented on the internet.

I will definitely pimp this to the Cranbury crew this weekend.

Do not think this course is the same course as this one - http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=3938

Even though both courses have the same name in New England area.

There's no DGCR info for this MA course.
Tee Off and Pay ATTENTION!! :shock:

I am sure the event will be great, but in my mind there's only one Cherry Hill disc golf course, and it sits adjacent to black falls...

Haha ya gotta use all the tactics at your disposal to generate interest.... Even if it means heisting the name of the most BA course in Vermont. Anybody who has been up that way knows that Johnny sits on a legendary duo of courses.

This Cherry Hill is, like Keith said, the name of a municipal 9 hole ball golf course here in Amherst. They've been interested in putting disc golf on their property for a while and we actually laid out a preliminary 18 off their property as they were going to enter into a land agreement with the owner of that parcel but unfortunately that fell through. So now the plan is for disc golf to be a shoulder season activity on the course. In other words once the funds are ascertained for baskets there should be an October-March course at Cherry Hill. Until that happens we'll have the opportunity to run events there in Fall and Spring..

Darn Kyle, you're right... I'm not sure that link works with mobile devices although I don't know why it wouldn't... Try refreshing the page once you have it opened and it should work from there (hopefully).

Registration is now up and running! :D

Any preliminary tee locations for non-pro divisions? I don't mind playing 800ft+ holes but if I don't have to, I won't. :roll:

Can't wait to get there and be a part of the fun!

After party at my house! It's about 3 minutes away, has a fire pit, and is an easy stroll away from The Harp. If anybody needs a place to crash friday or saturday night let me know, I have a decent amount of floor space.

I want to sponsor a hole.

If sponsoring a holes make it your starting hole, I will do 18.
If sponsoring it means just giving extra money, then I will do hole 8.

Gratzi my man!
