Well Done to Discovery Bay Golf Course

The greens keeper and staff of Discovery Bay deserve a sincere WELL DONE for an outstanding job they are doing bringing this 1920’s vintage course up to higher standards!

My wife and I played DB yesterday and we were SO IMPRESSED with the OUTSTANDING quality of the greens and fairways that we returned for another round today. It is absolutely apparent and nothing short of impressive the amount of hard work, dedication and care going onto the maintenance of this course over the past few years but especially this year.

I have been playing DB in my course rotation for 20 years, going back to the days of teeing off on #2 from the tree fort tee box (you can still see it from the 1st green). It is a charming, quaint track that is fun to play and offers challenge to golf friends, family, new golfers and experienced ones alike.

Admittedly, the course has gone through its ups and downs over the years. But BY FAR DB IS IN THE BEST PLAYABILITY SHAPE NOW THAN I HAVE EXPERIENCED IN 20 YEARS!

Again, Kudos to the staff and Pro Jeff who are making great strides bringing DB course back to standards especially greens, fairways, drainage and irrigation.

Living in Kitsap I regularly play many of the peninsula courses from Sequim to North Tacoma in addition to golf trips out of state. DB greens this weekend played as good or in many cases BETTER than any other peninsula competitor course hands down.

Also, special thanks to DB staff who now provide many tee box choices at DB. I am happy to see many of these being used by more and more golfers which allow fun and success for golfers of varied skill levels.

Sorry, about the gushing above but it is well deserved and DB efforts should be recognized. DB has a place in the peninsula golfing community especially as it continues to blossom. DB provides the perfect opportunity for young, old, experienced and new golfers to learn or more importantly to just enjoy the game in a natural, low golf pressure setting.

What No Trees?

Winter golf in PNW and not raining here in Sequim. This is a 10 hole course (separate finishing hole) with two distinct sets of tee boxes (each having 4 tee areas) which lends to an 18 hole feel. It's a links course, flat with no trees which was a refreshing change from many other courses. Fairways and greens are generous. Greens are relatively flat. There are a number of subtle dog legs with some holes guarded by water. We were welcomed and thanked by the course superintend ant. My new-to-golf wife got around fine. I enjoyed letting the driver loose. Admittedly, this is winter golf so cannot fairly comment on course condition. We'll be back to play again in the spring/summer when the course is in full bloom. Fun afternoon.

Fun Course wth Friend Learning The Game

Perfect low pressure, forgiving course to enjoy a round with a friend learning. Flat front nine out and back. More character to the hillside back. Fairways were adequate. Greens were maintained well. Early Sat reservation found low pressure making for a comfortable fun round from the up tees

Great Place For Beginners or to Brush Up On Your Game

Found VG when my wife decided to take up the game. Great for her, and good training course for me. We appreciate the friendly staff and low key nature and patience of fellow golfers. As a muni, this low cost little gem still could stand some tidying/upgrades to make it even better. Since many who play here are either beginners or others brushing up, I would like to see distances marked better (currently only hard-to-find 75 yd markers on the longer holes) even with paint marks on a tree or simple stakes. Also, fresh paint on markers/signs and a little attention to the tee boxes would spruce it up nicely. Don't get me wrong, I have no complaints. When I want a regulation course I go to one. Just suggesting some inexpensive, functional and esthetic upgrades that will help everyone. We are looking forward to VGs March re-opening (after winter break) as my wife could probably hit a par 3 off the tee now! Enjoy VG like we do!
