The Easiest 10 Minute Course Bag In DGCR Kingdom But ......Does It Qualify As A Course? 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jan 16, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

Easiest Course Grab Ever But Is This Actually A Course?

The little disc golf course at the Sarasota Boys and Girls Club consist of six baskets set in a small area roughly 200' x 250'. This area has scattered mature trees, a few bushes and a basketball hoop. There are no signs and no tee pads of any type. The baskets are older DGA models.

So smarter people have debated the age old question here and that is, does this actually count as a course? I live by a simpler creed. If it's listed on DGCR, I count it.

If you play safari golf and throw from basket to basket, the baskets are 75' to 125' apart. You could always play in reverse order, as well. And it shouldn't take more than about 10 minutes of your precious time.

Cons:

There is an 8' high fence around this area. It was locked up tight the first time I attempted to play it. That was about 9:30 am on a Sunday morning. The next day, one gate was open around noon.

No signage.

No tee pads.

Short elementary distances.

Other Thoughts:

A decent little course for beginners and some elementary players and us dedicated course baggers. Drive on by if you're any kind of a serious player and take the 6 mile drive over to Lakeview Park and amuse yourself avoiding the water hazards and the gators.

For The Children (Or Extreme Baggers) 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 12, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Six baskets on a small lot with plenty of shady trees.

Cons:

No signage or tees at all. Six baskets crammed into a very small area. The kids that play it regularly probably have a layout, Baggers will have to play it safari style.

Other Thoughts:

This is a course put in for children to play and for that, it deserves at least a small amount of respect.

*Note for Extreme Baggers: The course isn't marked as private and there are no "no trespassing" signs here. The place was empty on an early Saturday morning and the gate was unlocked. This course is probably unplayable when children are present unless you bring your own kids maybe?
