The folks who put this course in clearly must've said to themselves, "We've got space here, and by God, we're going to use it!" This enormous sports park has everything you can imagine, from a baseball and softball complex to playgrounds, and basketball, soccer fields, trails, shelters, and, yep, enough space to put in an isolated 18 holes of disc golf in the back several dozen acres of rolling pastureland. It has concrete tees, most of which are decently sized. It has quality signage on all the long tees. It has decent DGA baskets. And it has many, many opportunities to bomb your drives, frequently down big, open hillsides.

The long tees (which I played because that's where the tee signs were) included only 4 under 300', 8 under 400', 3 under 500', and the remaining 3 at 516', 543', and 915'. The first hole starts at the northwest corner of the large shelter house at the top of the drive (drive in & round to the left...the best place to park might be up there). The course works its way around the low marshy bowl in a generally counterclockwise manner, and finishes just past the basketball courts, starting you back towards the shelter.

When I played, there were no pictures or map, so I had a hard time finding where the course was. There need to be some kind of next tee indicators at the baskets, because you often have to walk several hundred feet to the next tee, and that seemed to be uphill all the time. That makes for nice downhill shots, but for my Rec level arm, every hole felt like, "well, here's another three: drive, approach, putt". Nearly every hole seemed to have one lonely tree or bush somewhere on the right side of the 'fairway'. This was my fourth stop for the day, so with all the hiking, by the thirteenth hole, I felt like Garth Algar getting a haircut.

There were no trash cans, no benches, and no shade, so it was nice that I came out on a calm spring day in the low 50's. There were no other DG'ers on the course the whole time I was there. I can imagine having some serious issues with the wind here most of the year, and with the sun scorching you in the summer.

I normally want to visit a course multiple times before writing a review, so I hope the folks that put in the course don't take offense if I break my rule here...Anderson Dean is a disc golf course where I'm glad the community has one, but its layout is too long for a casual or rec player, and frankly too boring for more skilled players to really enjoy it, despite the fact that they may be able to reach the baskets on their drives. But I suppose, if you're like me, and want to play them all, come out on a calm, cool day, and get some hiking in.

Wide open, no chance at losing a disc. Perfect place to practice long distance drives.

Not very challenging. Repetitive: long drive, approach, putt..rinse and repeat.

The only challenging thing about this course is the distance and the wind from it being so open. Only recommend it if you want to practice your long drives. There are much better courses not very far from this one that are worth the drive to play.

NO TREES, NO WATER. well placed baskets made for fast greens. VERY WINDY. plenty of parking, plenty of room for expansion of course.

NO TREES, NO WATER, VERY WINDY.
the park department must of just mowed as it was just ankle high when I visited.

Very humdrum. Would not recomend playing this course unless drastic improvements are made.

I tried to submit what I have written but for the first time at this great site it won't submit my personal feelings because I wasn't subscriptive enough for others to understand. Well I got one thing to say to that..... Play this course and try to write something about it is almost as hard as finding a tree in the park!!

Potential. I'd love to have a time machine and go back to whenever this course was new. It has great length and nice use of elevation, but aside from that it seems like a course that has been abandoned by it's caretakers.

The one time I played this course, there was thigh-high grass throughout the course. We had to employ spotters in order to find our drives laying in the middle of fairways.

The signs and teepads need work. I've never seen so few trees on a disc golf course.

I will play this course at least once more. It it's still overgrown and dilapidated, then I'll likely write this one off forever.

Hole length, nice changes in elevation course will give you some great exercise

Not much challenge (throw a drive-throw an upshot-putt) exteremly windy, Tall grass throughout course, hard to follow, most tee signs missing, pads in bad shap, some baskets bent and in need of repair

Originally course was designed to have a lake that was to come into play on 5 or 6 holes and several trees were planted to make course very difficult...unfortunatly almost all the trees died and the "lake" has almost completely dried up. Course has had very little use in recent years.

This is a long wide open course laid out on rolling hills. It's kind of boring because every hole is just a driving contest.
