Etiquette key to top frisbee golf round i
People, trees
top hazards
By Sean Meyers
Of the Emerald
So you want to be a frisbee golfer
and test your skills on the famed
University course.
All you need is a polymer saucer and
a knowledge of the three P’s —
pedestrians, pups and playing times.
But before you grease your frisbee
and head out to bust the course record,
there are a few things of which you
should be aware.
Unfortunately, the campus grounds
are used for other purposes than
frisbee golf, and pedestrians tend to
get irate and uncooperative when 454
grams of revolving plastic unsuspec
tingly strikes them in the face or
private parts. Before the victim
retaliates, point out that few students
are killed by errant frisbees each year.
Note that it’s not as bad as getting
gored in the spine by Jack Tatum or
punched in the face by Ray Mancini
and is therefore a harmless sport.
Unlike golf, there is no standard war
ning signal like yelling "fore” when
your frisbee is about to cut down a
pedestrian. Proper etiquette is to let
nature take it’s course. If you yell
“heads up” or “look out," people will
just look up and get hit flush in the
face, which adds insult to injury, so
you’re not really doing them or yourself
a favor.
Also, pedestrians are sort of moving
sand traps — if you don’t play them
just right you are penalized by lost
distance, which adds a little flavor to
the game. Golfers don't ask a sand trap
to move if they hit the ball towards
them, do they? Of course, it is good
form to be gracious after hitting
someone and not complain about the
inconvenience
“Oh, beg pardon,” you might say,
"But I believe that’s my regulation
weight frisbee lodged in your skull.”
But some pedestrians are of such a
meager I.Q. that you don’t have to hit
them to ruin your best toss of the
round. It really isn’t their fault, poor
cretins, they think they’re helping you
by retrieving and returning your
tremendous effort.
Also, keep a sharp eye out for the*

anathema of the frisbee golfer—the
unattended golden retriever. Should
you ever get your hands on such a
mutt, kindly attend it to the nearest
tree or ditch.
Finally, the problems of pedestrians
and pups can be solved with a
favorable playing time — early or late
morning on the weekends is the best.
No waiting, no pedestrians and no
bothersome foursomes slowing down
Pedestrians are like moving sand
traps. If you don’t play them just
right you are penalized by lost
distance, which adds a little flavor
to the game. Golden retrievers
also make irritating bunkers.
piay. But then again, no trail of beer
bottles to mark the course.
A hole by hole Rundown of the front
mne First hole, par-3
One of the easiest holes on the front
nine, obviously designed to build the
confidence of unsuspecting rookies.
Straightaway par three with no
obstructions, except the constant flow
of pedestrians from the EMU, and you
know how we feel about pedestrians.
With a good first throw, a viable birdie
opportunity.
Second hole, par-3
Things start getting a little ugly. A
large and unyielding Doug Fir lifts this
short par three a cut above dull. There
is a dogleg around the tree, but if you
don’t get cute and try to hook it around
the tree on the first shot to set up a bir
die toss, it’s a solid shot at par.
Third hole, par-3
So much for the easy holes. This par
three is 100 feet longer than the se
cond hole, and you don't get a clear tee
shot that allows you to acheive needed
distance. It’s best to sacrifice distance
on the first shot and thread the pines
instead, in hopes of a clear second
shot to the pin. Pray for a par and bag
birdie illusions.
Fourth hole, par-2
At a lenghty 201 feet, this is the only
par two on the course, but a relatively
easy hole considering the downhill
slope, lack of obstructions and
backstop. Keep your drive to the right
of the hole so you’ll have Chapman
Hall to back up an errant second shot.
A sloppy short game can be particular
ly disasterous when approaching from
the left. A slightly over-enthusiastic
fling or untimely gust of wind can
send your frisbee skidding across the
parking lot, and send your score
skyrocketting to embarrassing
proportions.
Fifth hole, par-4
A long, par-4 dogleg to the left with
plenty of obstructions and no
backstop. You have to go through a
forest of firs at the bend, getting
through which is as much a matter of
wind currents and will of the gods as
anything else. The key here is to find a
window of vulnerability, and I don't
mean the windows in Gilbert Hall.
Sixth hole, par-4
This hole is uglier than a gunnysack
of gorilla cookies. Even longer than the
last and uphill to boot. You have to

thread your way through the trees and
hope for an open shot. Gunning your
drive runs the risk of landing in
Franklin Boulevard to the immediate
left and abruptly ending the game.
Seventh hole, par-5
At 566 feet, this hole is one of just
two par fives on the front nine. It’s
tempting at first glance to shoot the
sidewalk on the left side, which runs
the risk of your projectile being cut
down by numerous trees and
pedestrians. It’s safer to go around the
'Jimniiiiiiii
right side and accept the added
distance in exchange for a clear shot
to the lamp post, but be careful to keep
your throws low, lest a tree eat your
frisbee.
Eighth hole, par-3
The drive is most important here —
if it is not straight and long you won’t
have a decent shot at par. There is also
the question of whether to try and clear
the road about halfway up the fairway.
Unlike pedestrians, cars usually get
the best end of a bout with a frisbee. A
nasty cement trap by the chancellor’s
office punishes a short slice off the
tee.
Ninth hole, par-5
Unlike any golf hole conceived. As
the ninth hole, it should lead directly to
the EMU so travel-weary golfers can
straggle into Oregon’s finest frisbee
golf clubhouse and have a soda before
braving the back nine. Instead, this
hole, the longest on the front nine,
starts at the EMU and moves towards
Carson Hall. An unforgivable faux pax
preempts any further discussion of the
hole or the course for that matter. In a
snit over this development, the
Emerald sports staff refused to review
the back nine.
