potential from the sale of INNOVA-Champion disc golf products. Some
parks sell over 2,000 discs annually, generating profits in excess
of $7,000.00.

Land:
In most cases, disc golf course installations take place in existing
parks where little or no land development is required. Costs for
site preparation will need to be factored in for undeveloped areas.
Course
Design:
We strongly recommend that you use an experienced disc golf course
designer. Fees will vary. Feel free to call us for a referral
on a course designer near you.
CONCRETE
TEES
OVERVIEW:
Concrete Tee Pads with a coarse finish provide the best throwing
surface for all types of disc golf drives. A firm, slip-free surface
must be provided for long power drives. Also, a reasonably level
surface should be created for finesse drives demanding accuracy.
Considerations:
1) Concrete tees are virtually maintenance free.
2) Concrete tees with a coarse finish, will help to prevent slipping
during wet conditions.
3) They will improve the user's/public's overall impression of the
disc golf facility.
4) Erosion is easily controlled.

· Cost will vary because of clearing and grading requirements.
· Please contact a local contractor for an actual quote.
· Use a per tee pad price to estimate additional costs when plans
call for additional tee placements at each hole (optional).
SIGNS
OVERVIEW: Tee
signs, are very important to help the first time user find their
way through a course. Accurate tee signs are important to the
tournament
competitor for specific shot selections. Other signs such as, rules
sign, out-of-bounds signs, dogleg signs and direction signs are
also helpful to the disc golfer. A large bulletin board located
near the first tee can be of great support to local disc golf
clubs
for posting tournament information and other flyers. Large "Disc
Golf Course" signs posted near the park entrance will help promote
public use of the disc golf facility. The general public may also
appreciate "Disc Golfer Crossing" signs, signs meant to protect
plant and animal life and other caution signs.
In creating
a conservative estimate for the cost of signs, the following sign
package is based on a fictitious disc golf course that has 18 holes,
several out-of-bounds areas, and is adjacent to a few mixed use
areas within a park. Also, these proposed signs are installed on
treated plywood panels that are attached to treated 4x4 posts. Sign
requirements and installation methods will vary from course to course.
