Play Disc Golf While You Hike!

Bud Hadfield Park is a neat park.  It contains a large flood reservoir, a nature trail and an 18 hole frisbee disc golf course that weaves all across the park.  This disc gold course was constructed by the Texas Army Trail (www.texasarmytrail.com) volunteers and then donated to Harris County Parks and Recreation.  It has been open now for about 4 months and I encourage everyone to visit this park as it is still relatively unknown.

The nature trail is not very long or interesting, so it's better to skip the nature trail and "hike" the frisbee golf course.  The distance is just about 1.5 miles and the course takes you along Cypress Creek.  If you enjoy playing disc golf, there are some very challenging holes here and it's a lot of fun.  I played with my kids and we had a good time and a lot of laughs.

Another reason it is best to hike in the direction of the course is so that you don't get hit by flying discs.  There are some undocumented trails that run through the woods, but if you're crossing the path of the course or heading away from the cage towards the launching pad, you run the risk of getting hit by a frisbee.
