Pros:

Good mix of shots. Really like the hanging basket. Larry did a good job mixing things up.

Lots of walking and probably a little difficult to navigate your first time around.

When I was there I had the pleasure of throwing with Larry Mann.

Fun Round, Great Hosts 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 30, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Fills a big gap in Texas where disc golf was formerly absent.
- Makes good use of some of the unique course characteristics, including throwing from under a covered pavillion.
- High quality baskets, good signage.
- Most importantly, fun.

Cons:

Like the majority of courses, this is a mixed use park and I could see some conflicts with other park users during heavy use periods... however, most of the course plays around or adjacent to the other park amenities so the design is layed out to limit conflicts.

There is some water on the course that potentially could have been better utilized. However, given the drastic changes in water levels that the creek experiences it may have been tough to place the baskets to close to the water features... making the holes unplayable during higher water conditions (alternate pin placements, potentially?).

Two holes are in an open field and the only consideration a thrower must take into account is an out of bounds fenceline and a ball field. The ball field should not come into play really.

Other Thoughts:

I was incredibly pleased to find out that a disc golf course had been installed in Brady. My family owns a ranch near Brady and I have been visiting the area my whole life. Houck's San Saba ranch (with it's 4 courses) was fantastic... but since it was pulled several years ago, disc golf has been absent from the area. I was very pleased with the course and had a great round with Larry Mann and three others who were gracious enough to let me tag along with my 3-year old. Hope to play again soon.

San Angelo - This one is worth the drive... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Nov 22, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is setup in one of those river parks where you seldom find yourself in the sun, but huge, tall trees leave the opportunity to throw underneath the foliage. Makes you throw many different shots with varying routes that make you think.

Cons:

Longer players may not appreciate the long tees - the course is designed to promote DG to newer players so Pros and Advanced players may find it too short.

Other Thoughts:

Hole to hole I was elated with first impressions as we arrived at each tee, but 13 was really nice... water in play on the right... needs a strong anny for the dogleg right around the heavy tree cover. Only the bold or foolish try the tomahawk straight through!

RV hookups in a very nice park with huge playground - very nice place for the family weekend outing. San Angelo DGers must drive down - takes an hour and fifteen mins max. My advice, Go Play It.
