The States With the Strongest Top Five Disc Golf Courses

Rank State Average World Rank of Top 5 Disc Golf Courses
1 North Carolina 36
2 Wisconsin 56
3 Michigan 68
4 Colorado 76
5 Pennsylvania 78

Of the states in the table above, only North Carolina's entire top five rank among the top 100 disc golf courses in the world in 2025.

How Old Are States' Top Disc Golf Courses?

Disc golf courses built within the last decade (here meaning 2014-2024 as courses built in 2025 won't be eligible until next year's rankings) dominate U.S. state's top disc golf course rankings, making up over 50% of states' best courses.

Year Est. Range State Top 5 Courses Est. Percentage of State Top 5 Courses State #1 Courses Est. Percentage of State #1 Courses
2024 2 0.8% 0 0%
2019-2023 64 25.6% 10 20%
2014-2018 71 28.4% 14 28%
2009-2013 35 14% 6 12%
2004-2008 28 11.2% 9 18%
1999-2003 25 10% 4 8%
1994-1998 12 4.8% 4 8%
1989-1993 4 1.6% 0 0%
1984-1988 2 0.8% 1 2%
1979-1983 7 2.8% 1 2%

One reason for this is that way more courses have been built in recent years than ever before. For example, last year's rate of 3.2 disc golf courses opening up per day was unheard of in the 90s and early aughts. 

But we also think newer courses' success in these rankings comes from having designs that better suit modern tastes and infrastructure like baskets, signage, and more that look fresher and are in better repair than at older courses.

It is interesting, though, how only two courses built in 2024 climbed into their state's upper echelons. It seems courses typically need at least a couple of years to work out a few kinks before they can rule their state's roost. The peak years for top five courses were 2018 (21 courses) and 2021 (20 courses).

To see some more interesting info on the ages of states' top tier courses, take a look at the sections below.

States With the Oldest Top Fives On Average

Rank State Avg. Age of Courses in Top 5 (Years)
1 Montana 31.2
2 Delaware 29.6
3 California 24.4
4 North Dakota 24.2
5 Oregon 22.8

North Dakota is the only new addition to these rankings from 2024, with Iowa falling out.

Ranking the Five Best Disc Golf Courses in Every U.S. State

If you're curious about some of the details behind the rankings, here are the basics:

  • How did you find all the courses?
    As we mentioned earlier, thanks to disc golfers across the world, UDisc Courses is the most comprehensive and frequently updated disc golf course directory in existence. A course had to be in the UDisc directory to make it into this post.
  • Were any kinds of courses ineligible?
    Courses that weren't available for play at least 120 days of the year were not included. We also didn't include any courses specifically meant for putting practice, but shorter courses that still required real throws and courses with fewer than 18 holes were eligible.
  • How did you create the rankings?
    The rankings are based on a methodology that applies more weight to recent ratings and helps identify which courses with excellent but relatively few ratings are true destinations rather than just local faves. We always work to make sure our ranking system accounts for the wide range of experience behind disc golfers' course ratings.

    Notably, due to this methodology, some courses that have higher average ratings in the UDisc Courses directory may be ranked below courses with lower average ratings.

    All courses were subject to the same metrics, and no course was moved up or down the rankings based on the preferences of UDisc staff.
  • Why are some courses that have lower average ratings on UDisc Courses ranked above courses with higher average ratings?
    The answers to "How did you create the rankings?" explain how this could happen.

What to Know Before Reading the Rankings

  • You'll find the results listed alphabetically by state name (i.e., we start at Alabama's top five disc golf courses and end with Wyoming's). You can also just jump to a specific state's top five from the state list.
  • Mobile and tablet users can swipe left/right on any table to see all columns.
  • Each course's name is linked to its UDisc Courses page. There you can see photos, reviews, layout difficulty ratings, availability, and more of any course in the table.
  • The ▲ and ▼ refer to how a course's rank within its state's top five relates to its position last year. "Same" means a course's position didn't alter and "new" means a course wasn't in the top five in 2024.
  • The rankings in this list may differ from what appears on states' Disc Golf Places pages. We used slightly different calculations to create these tables than what you'll find on Disc Golf Places. Additionally, rankings on Disc Golf Places will change throughout the year as disc golfers experience and rate courses.

Though its photos make it look like a remote mountain course, Beaver Ranch – Colorado's #2 course and the #20 course in the world in 2025 – is a fairly short, direct drive from Denver.

Colorado's #3 disc golf course, Bear Mountain, is on private land that's being cultivated to mimic how forests of the U.S. west looked before human intervention, but you might be surprised by what that entails (e.g., it actually includes cutting down a lot of trees).

Unbeknownst to many, Maine is a disc golf wonderland, but it's one of the few states where pay-to-play is the norm. That system has led to courses competing to have the best maintenance and amenities to attract disc golfer dollars.

The market demand for high quality courses has made Lewiston/Auburn, Maine, the #1 metropolitan area for disc golf in the U.S. (here's the full top 50), which also makes it one of the best places for disc golf worldwide.

Massachusetts is home to the course that was ranked #1 in the world from 2021-2023 and has been the United States' best course every year since 2020. Learn about its history, what the course is like, and more in "Maple Hill, Massachusetts: World's Best Disc Golf Courses Highlights."

The new #2 in the state rocketed to its ranking after opening in late 2024. It's the creation of superstar pro disc golfer Simon Lizotte and fellow touring pro (and frequent YouTube channel guest star) Casey White – the first design of a permanent public course by either player.

Though you might think two pros would create a gruelling slog of a course, their mission was far from that: They wanted people to have fun. And, based on its quick rise to the top 100 courses in the world, it seems they achieved their aim.

Get to know the full story with insights from Lizotte, White, and a course owner in "Mile Marker 63, Massachusetts: World's Best Disc Golf Courses Highlights."

Missouri's #1 disc golf course is also one of the world's top 10. It's likely the most expensive disc golf course ever built (the cost is well into seven figures at this point), and to make things even more interesting, all the money that went into creating it was spent by a man who has never played disc golf.

He did, however, once own a pair of the ruby slippers made for the the original Wizard of Oz movie before selling them for over $2 million.

Due to reconstruction of many holes and unknown reopening date of the brutally difficult, Paul McBeth-designed New London Tech Disc Golf Course, we opted to leave it out of Virginia's rankings this year. It would have come in at #1.
