Pros:

Great variety of holes to play. This course excels at giving a great option of throws to the player. Holes vary from short and technical to long and open. Some of the holes have some great risks (number 17 comes to mind with the pond on the left) but nothing that will make you afraid of losing a disc. The wooded holes are short for the most part, but are challenging with some tight fairways and some hanging branches that can get in the way. The concrete tee boxes are very nice and are angled with how each hole should be played. Two tee boxes on each hole allow for beginners and upper level players to both have an enjoyable round.

The presentation is also fantastic. It is themed around the Gwinnett park system and the park is designed to flow with the course as opposed to it being an after thought. Benches are strategically placed on every other hole and a nice 3 bench arrangement is right at the 9 hole turn. Maps are nice and accurate and there are multiple pin placements on each hole, which is for now in the A position. It's also a fun course!

Cons:

The biggest con is that this park is very new and still needs some work. A couple of the holes still needed mulch on the fairway. It's a bit on the easy side due to the newly planted trees still at a young state. While this isn't exactly a con, I believe in 2-3 years this course will be much more challenging.

Other Thoughts:

It is a very enjoyable course with great variation and presentation. It was designed with disc golfers in mind and will be one of Atlanta's best.

It's also 5 minutes from my house which makes it double awesome.
