Blue - Good not Great 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 21, 2018 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Pretty great layout. Challenging but not hard. The city takes pretty good care of this course throughout the year. They just trimmed up a bunch of dying trees to make this course that much easier. A decent bit of elevation change which is nice for this flat state.

Cons:

Not much variance of shots. Almost all technical and short. TICKS like crazy in the spring - fall months.

Other Thoughts:

You have to pay to get into this state park. So be prepared to pay an entrance fee. It's by car, so carpool to make it cheaper and definitely plan to play both courses. It's worth it, if you're looking for a fun, wooded course.

Arcadia Hyzer Club 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 16, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

Another complimenting course in the same park Concrete tees
Tee signs
Great baskets
Decent variety
Course is righty hyzer heavy but not just repetitious
Many different lines to choose from
Some tight low cieling
Some over the top shots
Some wide sweeping hyzer
Some sharp turn skip and hope for the best
Some ace chances that could turn into a hard three or a four
Very good risk/reward
Great to work on your line shaping
Awesome midrange work
A couple of chances to use a driver
Good for beginners to advanced
Great place to take family/beginners
This part of the park is Disc Golf exclusive
Not crowded
Quick round
Deer everywhere. (Solitude)
Bridges, where needed, in good shape
Very well kept
Several benches/trashcans
Plenty of parking
Bathrooms

Favorite Hole(s): #8, #13, #18

Cons:

Very small tees (no big deal, big enough)
Tee signs need layout and distance
Needs a few directionals
Some of the rough has been trimmed too much reducing the risk/reward
Not very many chances to stretch out a driver
A little short
Needs a few more trashcans
$6 per car but that covers all day
Not many cons just a solid course

Other Thoughts:

This is one of two fun short courses at Arcadia Lake. The other course is more sidearm/lefty friendly, but, played together they will be fun for everyone. Make the trip from OKC area to play if you haven't. Stay all day at the lake and play a few times. This course while not super challenging is a lot of fun. It is well worth the trip and the six bucks to play these two well kept, clean courses. Not a must play if just travelling through, but, it in OKC for long, make the stop. You won't regret it.

My "disc rating is weighted heavily to fun factor which this course has enough of. Good course.

PM me and let me know how I can improve my reviews to be more "helpful."

PEOPLE, PICK UP YOUR TRASH.

Winter/Fall Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 25, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This is a great course to work on your finesse shots. you might need a driver on a couple of holes, but can reach the basket on most with a midrange. Fun and next to another 18 holes for a two round trip.

Cons:

Do not go here in the summer. Ticks are abundant and like to hide and feed in the nether regions of your body. Deet will not help you. Also it costs $5 to 7$ to get in, so carpooling makes it more worth it.

Other Thoughts:

The Ice Bowl is held here sometimes and is a really fun event to play in, if you're not a puss.

Short and sweet 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 15, 2009 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Great course for midrange accuracy. You can work out those long putts, too. It's a good course to get out for a low scoring game, and a good course to take your friends. It's totally wooded, but there are good lines to throw on almost all the holes. You can birdie almost every hole if you're on target. There are a good range of shots, but most favor the right handed player on the blue course. (The lake has two courses) Located next to a really nice Edmond lake, and the course is pretty well kept. Really is a nice hike through the woods. Being a paid course, there's not much traffic, I don't think I've ever waited on a hole.

Cons:

Costs six bucks to park, but you can stay all day. Only one hole you can throw over 300 feet. Ticks are really bad, and tees are short.

Other Thoughts:

Really quick course to play. You can play 36 holes in under two hours.

Arcadia Lake - Blue Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 23, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

Another 18 hole course right next to this one( RED) Nice short course with a few blind holes(5,8,11,12,) but 8 and 12 are not bad.
Tee pads are short but are concrete.
The signs are only numbers but easy to find.


Cons:

$6 or $7 to play
Tee pads are only like 5'X3' but they are concrete.
The course criss crosses at 3 to 4, 6 to 7, 9 to 10, and again at 15 to 16. It would be hard to follow if you do not have the map of the course. I had the map so it was not a problem for me but other with out the map will have one.

Other Thoughts:

Winter time is probable the best time to play this course. There was no bugs, Poison Ivy, or Oak, and the tall grass was dead so it was easy to find my disc that landed off the fairway. It would also be good to have someone spot on a couple of the holes but it was not bad during the winter, summer months would be a different story.
