Get ready to test your skills at the Ron Cone Memorial Disc Golf Course at Glenwood Lake Park — a scenic and surprisingly challenging course designed for players of all experience levels.

The Ultimate Disc Golf Challenge features a unique 9-hole layout with two basket placements on every hole, giving players different ways to experience the course and creating an exciting challenge for beginners, casual players, and seasoned competitors alike.

At first glance, the course may look simple.

But don’t let it fool you.

As you make your way through the fairways, you’ll encounter rolling terrain, tricky air currents, ridge-top baskets, tree hazards, elevation changes, and technical shot placements that test both skill and strategy. This course rewards smart decisions just as much as power.

Whether you’re stepping onto the course for the first time or chasing your best round, every hole offers something different.

You’ll start with approachable fairways that help build confidence, then quickly move into more technical challenges featuring uphill climbs, downhill approaches, hidden basket placements, sharp doglegs, wooded hazards, and swirling breezes that can change your shot in an instant.

The middle stretch of the course demands precision and patience, while the final holes challenge players to finish strong with strategic shot placement and deceptive terrain.

And if you ask around, many players will tell you:

Hole #6 is where the real challenge begins.

Featuring a narrow fairway surrounded by dense brush and unpredictable breezes, it’s a true test of accuracy — and maybe not the place to throw your favorite driver.

Set against the backdrop of the beautiful Loess Hills, the Ron Cone Memorial Disc Golf Course offers more than just competition — it offers an experience.

Expect:

🥏 9 Holes with 18 Basket Placements
🌄 Scenic views across Glenwood Lake Park
🌬️ Technical winds and strategic elevation changes
🌲 Wooded obstacles and fairway challenges
🔥 Fun for beginners and experienced players alike

Whether you're competing with friends, testing your skills, or just enjoying a day outdoors, the Ultimate Disc Golf Challenge promises a memorable round full of fun, strategy, and unexpected challenges.

When you register for the Ultimate Disc Golf Challenge, you're helping build something bigger.
