Location. It is located outside of Abilene a couple of miles and once you get there, you drive back in the park a ways to get to the course, which adds great isolation, peace, and tranquility on the course.

Obstacles. Many trees (and strategically placed tee pads and baskets) offer a good challenge on this nine hole course.

Navigation and Layout. This course is super easy to navigate and the mix of short to long holes is great.

Upkeep. There are restrooms out there and plenty of trashcans. The entire park was very well mowed and taken care of. Very clean and no trash on the ground.

Apparently you have to track down the park manager if you are going to be there after 6pm to get a permit. Which, would be okay if the manager had a station there, or contact information, but you are just given his name on a sign and told to contact him. I don't know how you would do this unless you know the guy, or have internet service out there and can look him up and contact him through the internet.

Tee pads are pretty small, but the are level with the ground and doesn't cause too much of a problem on many holes.

This park does not seem very welcoming. Before I ever saw a tee pad or basket I saw 5 different signs that said, "private property, no trespassing, violators will be prosecuted," etc.

Fun course once you get out to it. It is definitely worth the drive, whether you are in Abilene and haven't played much before, or you are passing through. Take the extra few minutes to get out to this park, don't let the signs deter you, keep driving deep into the park, and have yourself a fun time on a cool and isolated nine-hole course.

This is one of the most scenic, pleasant of disc golf courses. Situated in the private Brown Memorial Park (open to the public), it is a huge chunk of land with many mature trees, well manicured grass, tucked back away from everything, with a river running through to boot.
It plays silky smooth, just like a traditional golf course. There are enough trees and other obstacles however, to keep things challenging.

Although you can sail one into the woods or river on the periphery, there is little chance of most errant shots getting you into serious trouble. Although fairway grass is high, keeping rollers down, roughs are non-existent.

Picturesque, and very mind-clearing. A nice break from the insanity that can be courses of the obstacle-ridden, claustrophobic variety. One for the zen archer.
