Some of the disc golf courses on Infinite Courses and the mobile app do not show up in the correct location on the map. Some of them are slightly off, while others appear in the middle of the ocean off the coast of Africa. Ideally we want the GPS location to be as close to the tee box for hole #1 as possible.
