๐Ÿ“ธ Showcase your course with photos

Learn how to add, upload, and organize photos for your course using the Photos tab in Course Tools. High-quality course photos help players know what to expect, navigate the course more easily, and get excited to come play.

Quick Answer

Course Ambassadors can add photos through the UDisc app (3-dot menu โ†’ Add photos) or through Course Tools in a web browser (Photos tab โ†’ Upload). Once uploaded, you can organize photos by assigning them to specific holes, setting cover photos, and editing captions.

Note: Only photos (images) can be uploaded to your course listing โ€” videos and video links aren't supported in the photos section. If you want players to be able to find a video of your course, paste the link into your course description in Course Tools โ†’ Details.

Why Course Photos Matter

Clear, detailed photos on your course listing help:

  • Give players a visual preview of what to expect

  • Help new players navigate the course with confidence

  • Showcase the unique features and beauty of your course

Photo Guidelines

Great course photos include:

  • Scenery and natural features

  • Tee pads and tee boxes

  • Fairways showing the flight path

  • Trees, obstacles, and hazards

  • Target baskets and green areas

  • Unique course features

Photos to avoid:

  • People, pets, or animals

  • Disc golf equipment (discs, bags)

  • Text, logos, or screenshots

  • Low quality or poorly lit images

  • Images with inappropriate content

Photo Moderation

All photos go through automatic moderation immediately when uploaded โ€” there's no manual review queue or wait time. Photos either pass or fail right away.

  • If a photo passes, it will appear on your course listing. You'll receive a confirmation email.

  • If a photo fails, it won't appear, and you'll receive an email explaining why.

Photos not appearing? If you uploaded photos and some aren't showing up, they were most likely rejected by automatic moderation. Check your email for a rejection notice explaining why. If you didn't get an email or think a photo was rejected incorrectly, ask to talk to a person in the chat and the team can take a look.

Tips for Better Course Photos

  • Take photos during good lighting โ€” Morning or late afternoon light works best.

  • Show the player's perspective โ€” Take photos from tee pads looking down the fairway.

  • Capture unique features โ€” Highlight what makes your course special.

  • Use clear captions โ€” Describe what players are looking at.

  • Assign photos to holes โ€” Help players visualize each hole before they play.

  • Set a great cover photo โ€” Choose an inviting image that represents your course well.
