Where would someone make a suggestion for a course in The Villages?
We came down here from CT - our sons are avid Disc Golfers and have played at a course in Apopka/Ocoee. You really don't need a great deal of room for a course, nor do you need cleared land. Many courses in the Northeast are in wooded areas and/or built in public parks. I think that the first step to building one here would be to find out how many "DG"ers there are in the area. One resource would be the PDGA (Professional Disc Golf Association) website - it is quite extensive and has lots of info. PM me if you have any questions - I'd be happy to try to answer them...
