Basketball and baseball use different types of balls.

Disc golf and throwing frisbees use different types of frisbees.

I’m deadly accurate with a normal frisbee, but can’t throw a golf disc to save my life.

It’s on private property, so I can’t really divulge where it is or anything. What else did you want to know? I don’t know too much but could ask my landlord.

Only info I have is that it’s OLD. Their family owned the property before the civil war. Landlords mother (who is now in her upper 80s) didn’t know the pool was there until he found it and she spent her entire childhood living in that house. So I’d say the original pool was dug out 100 years ago at a minimum. I’ve had a buddy (R/Rva’s own Phat Wes) metal detect the yard and he’s found civil war bullets, and some railroad tokensZ JEB Stuart’s troops camped in this area during the war. Europeans met the Powhatan tribe for the first time on the hill. This areas wildly rich with history

Figured both of you might be interested in this. I live over in Fulton and the first time I mowed my lawn, I took the grass clippings to the woods. I walk back and find this little man made stone pool in the woods. It’s a spring that filters thru Powhatan hill.

When I asked my landlord about it, he said that 40 years ago , when he was a kid, he went to dig out a retention pond because the woods were all marshy. When he started digging, he found the stone pool that someone else had dug sometime in the 1800s. I thought it was super cool.
