Decent practice area 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 5, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

4 decent basket
nicely groomed commons area
baskets don't really clash with any walking paths, that is a plus on campus courses.

Cons:

no tees marked
no numbers on the baskets

Other Thoughts:

This is really a "practice area" and I will be putting it down for a change from a "course"

There are plenty of parking spots near the baskets, but they were all "permit parking" Lucky for me, I played before 7am and it was free to park.

Someone has made a 4 hole course marked in UDisc, that is what I played and posted pictures of. However, there was absolutly no evidence of any tee's anywhere.

If you are living on campus and can't get over to Cameron Park or you want to work on your game, this is a good spot to do that. But as far as a course? Nope.

Would I play here again? Nope, already bagged it, go play Cameron, both of those courses are well worth playing.

Hard to play 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 30, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

4 nice baskets..that is about it.

Cons:

Very crowded campus. almost unplayable between class times. Parking is only permitted in off hours. Nothing is marked. Just 4 baskets in a quad.

Other Thoughts:

Just a practice area not a course at all.

Baylor U. 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:May 2, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

-- Nice DiscCatcher baskets.
-- Center of campus at Baylor, so it's convenient for students/faculty.

Cons:

-- Being only four holes is the least of the problems here.
-- Nothing is marked. There is no map on site; baskets are not numbered; nothing on site indicates where you should tee from or where you are throwing.
-- Safety issues. According to the map on UDisc, each tee "pad" uses existing concrete. And according to that map, the #4 basket is basically in the fairway for #1. Also, there are spots for people to hang hammocks in the middle of the course. Add in the general foot traffic for a green space in the middle of a college campus, and safety is a major concern. I played on a Sunday afternoon, and there were still lots of people using the space for things other than disc golf.

Other Thoughts:

-- This feels much more like a practice area than a course. I've been on courses with 3-4 holes that felt like courses; this is not one of them.
