IOS #114 Oswego Open

Eagle Ridge, Oswego, IL
September 10  & 11, 2022
PDGA C/B Tier

Eagle Ridge is the home course of the Fox Vally Metro Disc Golf Club. We’d like to thank them along with the Oswegoland Park District for continually improving this course. The tight woods challenge players to keep it in the fairway and the open holes gives players a breather before heading back into the woods. The elevated pin on hole 9 has tested many players nerves while putting.

This event will be two rounds of 21 holes. All divisions will play one round from the short tees, one round from the long tees.

More details including divisions, entry fees, schedule, etc. can be found on the details page on this site.

A note on amateur division names: The IOS team feels that the traditional division names (Advanced/Intermediate/Recreational/Novice) can be misleading. We will instead refer to them as AM I, AM II, AM III, and AM IV. See the FAQ page for more info.
