## Resource

One of the top 100 disc golf courses in the entire United States is tucked into the forest on Shelton Springs Road in Shelton, Washington, and unlike almost every other top-ranked course in the country, you can play it for free, any day of the year, on the same pads the pros throw. This weekend (May 29–31, 2026), the world's best disc golfers come to Mason County for the Discraft Cascade Challenge — the West Coast debut of the brand-new JomezPro Series on the Disc Golf Pro Tour. The number one men's and number one women's competitors in the world will both be in Shelton. And on Saturday night, in a Forest Festival weekend first, players and fans get to throw glow discs under stadium lights and the city fireworks, with the last tee time going off at 11:20 PM. Jeff Slakey sits down with three people who can tell you exactly why this is happening here: Ryan Smith and Justin Holzgrove from the Mason County Disc Golf Club, and Cascade Challenge Tournament Director Jeff Korns. They cover the course's UDisc Top 100 ranking, why the City of Shelton's partnership made it possible, what the pros actually say about the layout, and how a casual visitor can walk up, watch a 500-foot tee shot, and get an autograph from a world champion — all in the same afternoon. 🎟️ Tickets: https://tickets.dgpt.com/event/cascade-challenge-h4yzzy 🥏 Event info: https://www.dgpt.com/event/2026-cascade-challenge/ #CascadeChallenge #DiscGolf #SheltonWA #MasonCounty #JomezPro #DGPT#PNW #PacificNorthwest #OlympicPeninsula #HoodCanal #Hoodsport #ExploreShelton #WashingtonState #Discraft #UDisc #UDiscTop100 #DiscGolfProTour #SheltonSprings #GlowGolf #ForestFestival #KMAS
