Pros:

If you prefer a challenge, by all means this is your course. Woods holes are fairly imaginative in their layout. Hole #3 was really cool. Good hardware and tee pads except for #12.

Cons:

Reading back on some of the reviews for this course, I am left a bit confused. Of the first four holes, only number three was playable for my brother who is a beginner. I've been playing for a very long time and was quite frustrated to start out as well. Holes 5 through 11 are simple enough, but are also a bit unimaginative. I had a real problem with hole 12, mostly because I couldn't find it, with absolutely zero signage after hole 11. Might have just driven home after 11 if we didn't see that hole 12 is literally right next to hole 1. This is where my real problem with the course started. Every remaining hole on the course except for hole 18 (which was a bit of a joke in its own right) was a nightmare for a beginner. If you don't have pinpoint accuracy with the disc, you send it deep into incredibly thick woods. When I say thick, I mean it's difficult to see two feet in front of you in any direction. There were tee pads, hole 16 for one, in which a curved drive was required and there was no more than 5-8 ft to send the disc for 100 or more feet, ON A CURVE! So if you don't already have every shot shape possible at your disposal, you're essentially screwed. In the end, we were left frustrated and mentally exhausted.

Other Thoughts:

I'd skip this if you're not a really good disc golfer. There are plenty of other courses out there to play.
