This is a course that would be hard to be disappointed by if you're only looking at the disc golf. The holes are pretty fair, well designed, and have the basics of what you need. It would be easy to get bogged down by some of the atmosphere of the park, but the pros of this course outweigh them.

The things you'll be pleasantly met with at this course are good hole design (with one notable exception), concrete tees, in shape baskets, and a reasonable amount of seclusion from the rest of the park.

A little over half the holes play in the woods on the back and right border of the park (from the main parking lot, looking out at soccer fields). A few of them play along the woods and in the fields around other park activities. The wooded holes were pretty nice- open fairways, fairly short (or still fair when long). I played in December, so maybe the fairways were more open than normal, I had a couple thumber lines that might not be there in the spring/summer.

The tees are fairly narrow, maybe a little short, concrete (short tees) but I never needed more than a step or two, and never felt crowded or like I had to take extra short steps on a drive. The gold tees were less well-marked, and looked natural to me.

The tee signs were fairly helpful. Mostly accurate, but still learned I needed to walk up a few fairways. A bend on the tee sign might really be more of a drift in real life. Also some of the distances seemed a little off. I think a few holes are shorter than the posted difference. Use your own visual judgement on how hard you should throw.

The baskets have seen some things, but they still do their job. They're a mix of Mach 5's I think, and old DisCatchers. Basket 9 is HIGHLY elevated. Looks like a lot of work was put into it.

Navigation is pretty straight forward. The map is very accurate, and really helps. The one tricky part, from 8 to 9, I actually didn't pull the map out for bc I saw that it was by 7 tee, and then when I looked in that direction, a trail was marked with ties on trees, and "Hole 9" sign about 20 yards down the trail assured me I was going in the right direction.

My biggest by far- Hole 8. It's just the silliest design. A 90degree turn about 200 feet or so in front of the fairway. There's no cutting the angle, there's no hyzering into the gap, the ground won't even allow for a skip. There is no two-ing this hole without a lot of luck and maybe bending physics. It's a real interruption in the round.

The end of the course plays near some other park amenities. Hole 17 is right up against some tennis courts. There's a high fence the whole way, unlikely you'll go over it, highly likely everybody is going to watch your shot. Hole 18 plays over a walking path, and next to some soccer fields. On a crowded day you'll be waiting to throw, on a really crowded/windy day, you might not be able to.

I mentioned the tees, they aren't great, but really they aren't bad either. I'm only mentioning something so if you haven't played this course you won't show up and suddenly be disappointed when you saw they had concrete tees, and are expecting luxuriously-sized launchpads.

There's some trash around the shared areas of the park, but back in the woods part, it's pretty clean. Some of the trash is pretty weird, but I remember it being worse last time I was here to bag Ace Run

This was a really nice course. A great compliment to Ace Run on the other side of the park. I don't know which one I would say is better, because I ended up playing them both in different conditions (drizzly and muddy and hot, vs sunny and great day). Both courses are great plays, and if you're travelling along I-12 and need a break- these are 5 minutes from the highway.

Duzee benefits from the same wooded environment that Ace Run plays through. It complements its little brother by playing a bit longer and at times noticeably more open, although a level of technicality is retained, particularly on the front 9, which is the course's strength for me. The shot shaping here isn't as varied or challenging as Ace Run, but there are still plenty of tight windows and tunnels to hit, and a decent amount of distance variation (two holes under 200' and two over 300', with one at 363' from the ams).

Duzee's terrain is more varied than Ace Run. Hole 1 is the perfect example of this: you're hitting a tight window that plays out of and into a more open area. Later holes mirror this half in/half out of the woods in a nice counter to Ace Run's consistently heavy wooded golf. There are opportunities to air it out here, and while these are lacking in technical interest, after 30+ holes of tight windows and focused shot shaping, it can be nice to just launch a disc with impunity. Between the longer distance and more varied woodedness, Duzee is a nice companion to Ace Run.

While I appreciate the effort towards variety on the back 9 as the course opens up, the shots in this stretch are straightforward at best and boring at worst, with little line shaping or risk. Drives have little if any obstacles to contend with, and approaches are often completely unimpeded. The complete openness of the last two holes epitomizes this. It's hard to fault the designers for wanting to offer a change of pace, but at the same time, I think both Duzee and Acadiana Park as a whole suffer a bit for it. The terrain just isn't built to offer interesting golf in the semi open, so the instances where it's tried feel forced.

Navigation gets dodgy at some points. There are a few spots in the middle holes deepest in the woods that would benefit from better signage.

No alt pin positions.

I have a hard time rating this course. The front 9 are solidly 3.0 for their wooded technicality, and are basically extensions of Ace Run, whereas the back 9 taper off noticeably. In the end the front 9 seemed strong enough to merit a 3; perhaps the presence of another very solid course on site broke the tie in favor of a higher mark.

The natural layout suggests that you play Ace Run first and Duzee second. Parking is plentiful, amenities available, and the courses themselves are easy to find. Between Acadiana Park and Pa Davis, Lafayette has quite a respectable set of courses on hand. Coming from New Orleans, I envy the locals!

Mostly tight and technical and a little longer than Ace Run but with a few more open holes. Mostly contained in well-shaded hardwood forest that helps to keep you cool in the summer. Requires a variety of throwing techniques. You will need your forehand throws here.

#1 - There were a few navigation issues, especially between #8 and #9 which requires a long walk along an unmarked trail.

#2 - There are a number of short, blind tee shots which tend to introduce a significant luck factor, especially to players new to the course.

#3 - Hole #9 has an elevated, tiered, monstrosity of a basket at the end of a remarkably good fairway that requires an accurate and long drive. Why would you end what would otherwise be a magnificent hole with a gimmick like that. Welcome to putt putt disc golf. Practice your Turbo Putt for after the layup at the end. The support wires around tiers may force you to use it.

#4 - Holes 17 and 18 are wide open.

#5 - Holes 17 and 18 are adjacent to soccer fields and are located between the soccer fields and the parking lot. This makes them virtually unplayable on weekends when soccer is being played.

#6 - Tee boxes are a bit small, especially on the longer holes.

#7 - The pro tees are poorly marked (and difficult to find), natural (muddy when wet), and add nothing to the course but length and a huge luck factor. Don't bother trying to play these unless you are forced to in a tournament.

Hole 9's elevated basket begs the same question as the sprung and hanging baskets on Ace Run. Why? Why not use the considerable effort and expense involved to build some nicer tee boxes or anything else that might add to the course? And worse, hole 9 could be one of the best holes on either course.

This course and Ace Run are fun courses to play, but the repetitive nature of blind throws in the woods detracts a little. Also this course is a bit short overall. For a better overall experience while in Lafayette, give Pa Davis a try.

I had fun playing this course. It is easy to navigate. It was clean and maintained. It has pleasant scenery throughout.

It is short. It gets repetitive. It is pretty much birdie or bust. It does not have really any holes that make you think.

Fun course to play. It can be a real confidence builder. I liked this course better than the other course on sight.

Plenty of seating, large open field for practice. Nice mix of wooded, clear, and semi-clear holes. Several shorter holes offer bird and ace potential. Fair variety of holes offers a nice array of shots.

Not alot of options or choices to be made on this course. Alot of "thread the needle" type holes. Not a good beginner course. Several fallen trees and random tree placements indicate a course that wasn't well planned.

Beware of snakes, nearly stepped on one at this course. Bringer your shorter and more accurate discs for success on this course, longer shots are few and far between.
