Well maintained 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 19, 2020 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

It is a well maintained University course. The school only cuts "its" grass (which is a lot) so a local group of players maintain the wooded areas and do a very decent job. Kudos to them!
Has both wooded shot-making holes and wide-open throw your arm out holes.
Dog friendly and family friendly.
22 holes to play.

Cons:

The locals have tried to keep the signage up but it is still lacking. Understanding it takes $ to do this and their support is by donations and the local organization.
There are no benches or other amenities.
Some holes are just wide open throw as far as you can. If you like that it's not a con, but my arm likes the shot making holes better.
You will have to wait for walkers and joggers OFTEN because of the track that is in and around the course.

Other Thoughts:

This is the only course in Montgomery so we play it regularly. We appreciate the course but often drive to other places for variety.
It is dog on a leash friendly. A great walk for the whole family.

Clean, Varied Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 15, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

Very clean, 22-basket course great for beginners and recreational players which features a nice mix of wooded and open field holes.
Good mix of distances for the holes, ranging from just under 200 feet to just over 400 feet.
The landscape on the open holes outside of the woods are well maintained.
Wooded holes are varied and fun, including hole 8, which I dub the "Hobbit Hole", is a unique hole on the course with its tunnel shot and numerous small mounds all the way up.
Some holes feature subtle elevation changes.
Bathrooms near hole 1.

Cons:

Next tee pad not easily distinguished; had to use the UDisc app to find the next hole.
The final six holes are plain and wide open with no obstacles.
No benches.
Inconsistent tee pads; some are torn fabric; some pavement that is a part of the walking path.

Other Thoughts:

One of the cleanest courses one can find with some good mix of holes. A solid course where anyone regardless of skill level will find enjoyment playing the course.

Local golfer review 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Mar 25, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Fairly diverse holes. Some heavily wooded holes that will challenge your skill level to hit lines.

Very open holes to compliment the wooded holes to help get you back to even.

Good elevation changes, nothing too drastic.

This course will put every shot you have in your bag to the test at some point.

Never crowded.

Mini local club sanctioned tournaments The first sunday of every month.

Cons:

Some of the fairways get tight when the trees grow back in during summer time.

Missing Signage. Local club has a map posted to this page. It helps, however, tee boxes are mostly natural tees and not perfect.

Some damage baskets(still playable) and tees.

Difficult to navigate without the map.

Other Thoughts:

This course has a LOT of potential but due to recent construction on AUM's campus many holes were relocated from their original positions and thus all existing signage was rendered unusable.

This course is VERY fun to play, if you can navigate it. Take the time to follow the map, once you know the layout it's a very fun 22 hole course.

DO NOT CUT ANY TREES OR BUSHES. We've had a lot of issues with people widening the wooded holes fairways. These holes are supposed to be difficult! The current course record is -10, it's not hard, just learn to throw better!

The local club, River Region Disc Golf, does what it can to keep the course playable and are in the process of getting signage in order so that players can at least find their way around the course.

Typically, local golfers are very eager to show new or out of town players the flow of the course. If you'd like to navigate yourself there is a map on this webpage. OR you can goto facebook and search for river region disc golf club and contact someone directly for help!

This course will get better in the coming years, and hopefully more courses will pop up soon!
