pitch and putt 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 31, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

Aesthetic-- plays around a retention pond behind the high school by the athletic fields. Plays intermingled with walking trails, be careful

Baskets-- the ones that are there are in nice shape.

Routing/nav-- fairly easy, just follow the lake clockwise from the parking lot.

Teesigns-- at the very least, they were interesting. distances in yards.

Cons:

Challenge-- very low. no lake involvement, very very short holes. par 2's

Construction issues-- more than half the course is unavailable d/t construction issues. this was a fun course to play safari though.

Other Thoughts:

This course is partially unavailable due to construction. #1, #2, #4, #8 &#9 are not in the ground.

Putter Paradise 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:May 31, 2011 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Pleasant little "Putters Only" course that plays around a small pond providing nice ambience for some quality time with your putter(s). Good for practicing putt & approach, small kids, or quick, quiet rounds if you're already nearby.

Given what this place is, it offers fair shot variety in in that most holes are pretty wide open with nice, short looks at the basket that don't force any specific lines,so you can choose how you want to run it. A couple of them have tucked/guarded baskets which, despite the short distance, would be respectable Aces because of the line required. Elevation changes come into play on a few holes to make things a bit more interesting. Good use of trees to make about half the holes here more interesting than "See that basket straight ahead? OK - go for it!"

Holes play clockwise around a quiet little pond that creates a pleasant ambience.

Cons:

Limited availability, but understandably: no playing during school hours.

Putter only courses by their very nature, are pretty much one-dimensional, this is no exception: only 1 hole over 150' with the longest clocking in at just under 200'.

There's a pond I would love to throw over, but there's no reason to.

Holes 5, 6, 7 seem to be a jumble of tees and baskets crammed in a fairly small area to make a "full" nine holes. Not really clear which tee goes with which basket, and it's not really important either; I played them as intended, and found it more interesting to safari them afterwards.

Other Thoughts:

Neat little course, serves a useful purpose, and I've had fun here. Don't take my rating as hating on this course. I simply can't bump 9 holes worth of upshots higher. Riverview Grasslands and Bay Court are far more complete courses, and I have them at 2.0. In my opinion, this course simply doesn't merrit that rating, and to do so would be misleading and imply there's more going on here than there really is.

Worth playing if you have a reason to be in/near Brighton, but please don't drive here for the disc golf.
