Overall layout is nice with lots of variety and opportunities to use every shot in your repertoire. Well marked, with easy walks between all the holes.

Not at all friendly to novice players due to many tight openings, lots of undergrowth and small trees that are usually cleared on better courses. Many holes are just dumb luck if you make it through the trees or stay in bounds.

As a player who just started playing in earnest this year and has played courses all over the northeast this is near the bottom on the list of ones I would want to play again. Understanding there are constraints it still needs a good trimming with a chainsaw.

1) The biggest pro this course has going for it is that it's the only game in town. On days when we can't drive to Dryden, Syracuse, or Pennsylvania, those of us who live in the Binghamton area finally have a place to get in a quick disc golf fix.
2) This course is great for teaching new players how to play the game. It is short, easily navigated, and will punish your scorecard for inaccuracy, but you shouldn't lose many discs (The vegetation along hole-4 can eat a disc, as can the pond on hole-11, but other than that you should find just about any disc with some persistence)
3) Although there is little distance variety, the course is fairly balanced for lefties and righties.
4) As is the case with most courses I have frequented, a small friendly group of regulars can be found here. If you're new to the course and run into somebody that looks like they know what they're doing, speak up and say hi, most of us would be happy to share a round with you.
5) Signature hole: Hole-8 - A nice drive will get you into a shaded grove along a stream at the foot of a steep 7-foot high slope. The basket lies on a plateau up the slope. You'll need pinpoint accuracy on your approach to be in range for a good look at a birdie- 3.

1) The course has come a long way in a year, but there is still some debris on the course and stumps in the fairways that need to be removed.
2) There are a couple of holes that feed redundant. For example, holes 1,6, and 14 are all about the same length and dead straight with narrow fairways.
3) The course is short. You only have two real opportunities to grip and rip. (Holes 11 and 17)
4) A couple of the holes force tee shots at odd angles. Hole-10, an uphill, U-shaped shot, is the best example. Although, I do feel this can be a con for travelers, I also think it is actually a pro for locals. Once you get these holes dialed in, your trials-and-errors will result in lots of rewarding birdies.
5) Parking on campus is a no-no if you don't have a pass. There is no enforcement on weekends (5 p.m. Friday to Sunday night at midnight), but don't park on campus during the week unless you're ok with a ticket. Luckily there is an easy solution. If you don't have a pass, simply park off campus on Murray Hill Road and start on hole-5 which is merely 100 yards away. Play the course from hole-5 to hole-4 and enjoy!
6) Not a big deal at all, but hole-13 is a par-3. I can deal with 8, 11, and 17, they can be par-4s, but they should change the sign on hole-13.

I know the designer had many, many restrictions when planning this course. Considering what he had to work with, I think he did a very nice job. So the walk from 1 to 18 is a tad long, I've seen much worse. So, there's a bit of a walk from 10 to 11. It's worth it! Holes 11 and 13 are two of my favorites on the course and I'd walk twice as far to play them.
BU is a fun little course and is only going to get better with age. The area finally has a viable disc golf venue to grow the sport. This little course has brought local players together which will lead to more courses, which will lead to even more players, and eventually a vibrant disc golf community in the Southern Tier. Thanks to BU for your investment in a great sport and for a nice course that I don't have to drive an hour to get play!!

Wide range of shots needed. Tight fairways but not plinko style. The woods are varied and interesting. Not especially long, but a mix of lengths, with elevation kept me wondering what to throw off the tee. Thanks to our guides, Herb and Tucker navigation was never an issue. Got through the course with 2 babies in strollers without too much difficulty. Fun round.

New course problems, fallen trees in fairways, schule inside the circle. Easy fixes as the course wears in. Parking seemed like a trek, passed a lot of empty parking lots we weren't allowed to park in.

Good course overall. Really nice signs.
