Enjoyable and walking disc golf course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 10, 2018 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Good walking distance and you are expected to be out for a long round, most holes are easy to find, as well the course has more variety in layouts and that creates more enjoyable in throwing and trying different windows on each hole.

Cons:

No concrete tees! Beware, some holes will be blocked or overtaken when there are events going on certain fields. There are some holes are too long and they comes in streak of 3-4 holes in row before the distance cools down.

Other Thoughts:

Scenic views! Wide in horizon and not too woody, in my opinion, it is balanced course. This course is something that I would come back and play at least once or twice a year (coming from northeast of Indianapolis).

P2P (Pay To Play), but I do not mind. Restrooms, water fountains, plenty of shades, good parking spots, well groomed course and some more just waiting on concrete tees.

and to add, great place for a day or weekend trip-- buddies or families. Columbus is always rated a top spot to visit, as is Nashville which is not far down the road.

May The Force Be With You 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Aug 26, 2018 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Shot Selection-need backhand and forehand.

Plenty of diversity in looks at the Basket, some shots are doglegs, some straight bombs. Alot of thought went into the layout.

No pure wooded sections, but trees throughout, to shape shots around.

Water comes into play on 3 Holes, 7, 14, 18. The designer added a shorter basket on #7, so those who don't want to risk losing a disc, don't have to throw over the lake.

Good distance Course, short tees at 6,531', longs 8,484'. Three sections of holes where the shortest shot is 435', gives you that relentless feel.

Has some gentle elevation changes at times, couple of larger hills,.and the Course itself is very attractive, especially playing around the lake. Able to catch shade throughout, some Holes being exposed to the sun.

Awesome family place, as you look around you wonder what activities they don't offer!

The Tees signs are informative, and also have links to the local Club's Facebook page shown as well as a barcode you can scan to download the map from.

The Course plays away from most other activities, although it does criss-cross a few spots that people may be walking along, not a big problem though.

Cons:

Currently, no benches, there are picnic tables throughout the general area, would be nice to have some scattered throughout at different points of the Course.

No trash cans by the tees, but they can be found by the shelters, campsites...

Natural Tees, I don't mind, but with the solid distance many of the Holes offer, people would prefer to have concrete to get good run-ups on.

There a couple of picnic tables set up in the middle of #7's fairway, possibly rendering that one unplayable,

Other Thoughts:

Luke (Skywalker) Jones has done a fabulous job re-designing what was previously a decent Course into a very solid Intermediate and up outing.

This one offers many challenges throughout, very fun Holes. The distance will beat down beginners, and test the Intermediate and up players.

He notes John Houck as an influence, and while I haven't had the honor of playing a Houck-designed Course yet, this really gives you an idea of what John's design philosophy must be.

With Brown County Country Club, Deer Run DGC, and now this great re-design, this area of Indiana offers a fantastic day of destination-style DG.

**Update** Minor redesign, new Holes 6, 7, 8. From #5 go to the right across the road.
