Hazardous hucking.

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 18, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

There are some unique holes. Hole 7 is a miniature signature hole.
Baskets in great shape. You will most likely have the course to yourself.

Cons:

SAFETY HAZARDS!!!
The most obvious is throwing over 2 parking lots for hole 3. I talked to the designer and he said the parking lots and buildings are no longer in use. However is still a concrete lake that can damage your discs. When I was there construction vehicles were parked off to the left. I also thought that hole 1 had safety issues with the road and basketball court. Hole 5 has minor issues with the proximity of houses. Hole 6 looks like a busy area, but I have not been there during the day. Hole 9 threw over a road and walking trails. It also finished on the soccer field.
I have been to numerous courses where the basket plays into a risky area and the designer says, "It is ok, that area is not in use". However will that change in time? I understand the logic, but do not accept it as an excuse.

No tees. Impossible to navigate without Udisc.

Had to climb over fallen trees and construction areas several times, so it was not cart friendly.

Other Thoughts:

Lets start with hole 1. It was tough to find it. You have to use the first option on Udisc or you can not navigate the course. It starts on top of the hill to the left of the guard stand. It requires you to throw VERY close to a road and a basketball court. These features are rarely used, but there is always a chance they could be in use when you wanted to play.
Hole 2 uses the edge of the basketball court and throws uphill. It is a wide open shot on a hillside that slopes down on the right.
Hole 3 was pure insanity. Throwing over 4 rows of parking spaces leaves very little safe landing area.
Hole 4 was purely impossible to play as designed. The tunnel you have to throw through is so low that you can't throw from the location Udisc has marked as a tee and do anything except play safe through the tunnel.
Hole 5 was a wide open shot, but the property line and houses are close on the left side.
Hole 6 is the water hole, but the basket was removed for Winter Commencement.
Hole 7 is the throw from the building straight down the steps behind MA/COM Hall
Hole 8 is a slight uphill shot. The terrain slopes down hill to the left. You throw towards the large towers to reach the basket.
Hole 9 throws over numerous sidewalks and a road. The basket is right on the edge of the soccer field.
Hole 10 is the longest hole playing over some subtle rolling hills back to the practice basket.
