Our friends at White Tail Run Disc Golf Course are ranked #8 by UDisc among the BEST DISC GOLF COURSES AT WINERIES IN THE WORLD for the second time (we personally think they are #1)! If you haven't checked them out yet, head over for a game and enjoy a glass of w**e from White Tail Run Winery and Vineyard. Congratulations!

🥏🍷 WELL… THIS IS PRETTY DARN COOL! 🍷🥏

We have some BIG news from the disc golf world!

According to the NEW UDisc 2026 rankings, White Tail Run Disc Golf Course is ranked #8 among the BEST DISC GOLF COURSES AT WINERIES! 🌎🏆🥏

#8. IN. THE. WORLD. 🤯

We’re a little speechless.

Okay… maybe not THAT speechless. 😂

When we opened our 18-hole course in 2023, we hoped people would enjoy throwing a few discs through the vineyard, woods and around the water. We never imagined we’d end up on a worldwide Top 10 list just a few years later!

And the coolest part? These rankings come from disc golfer ratings on UDisc, with more than 6.5 million ratings from over 1 million disc golfers around the world. So THANK YOU to everyone who has played our course, rated us, told a friend, brought a friend, lost a disc, found a disc, complained about a tree… 😂🥏

YOU helped put us here! ❤️

Now, how about coming out this weekend and seeing what all the fuss is about?
