Other Thoughts:
This is rated against other Mini DG courses.
Got to walk the course with the owner and learn alot about the history and growth of Mini DG. Like, the world distance record for a mini is over 400 ft, thats crazy I can't throw that far with a normal disc. And that the majority of the mini baskets out there are based on his design. Having the owner show me the ropes really spead things up, althought I would have been able to navigate with the map just fine. The tee stones are big 12x12 pavers and easy to find, and I was told "pick a tee, pick a basket and have fun". The majority of the 18 hole layout I played was pretty open but still had a good mix of holes and plenty of distance(although not alot of shade and it was hot really hot and sunny). The water hole although intimidating was a fun treat. This is a really nice course and has a mix that will challenge all levels of players.
Would be nice to see some tee signs or navigational aids but as well as a scorecard.
