Don't waste your time 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 19, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

There are baskets to catch discs.

Cons:

Everything else.
I stopped here with a friend while on a road trip across the state. Why we chose this dump over another course along our path is unknown to me but it is what it is.
The course is run down, with missing signage and baskets. As mentioned in other reviews, holes 1,2, and 3 are gone which makes it FRUSTRATING for a first timer to know where to start from. The layout is an absolute joke!! Holes to across parking lots, roads, football fields, baseball diamonds, and down into a bug breeding zone filled with burning thistle! One hole in the woods has.....not exaggerating.....NO LANE! Impossible to shoot at the basket! I asked a local kid how to throw to it and he said, "just chuck it through the brush and hope it pops out the other side." HUH!?!? Then there is a hole like 80 feet long followed by one that is 600!!! The course was NOT designed by discers. You got to be hurting bad for some disc golf if you choose to play this dump. It speaks volumes for the lack of pride the city takes in thier park department and/or schools.

Other Thoughts:

I will never waste time at this course again. If I was in the area I would rally like crazy to totally revamp the course layout and raise funds to upgrade items like adding SOME trash cans or some type of pads.

Don't bother 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 2, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

I thought hole 6 was fun, and there's plenty of parking. Hole 6 plays down a sharp drop into the creek bottom, but you can see the basket and if you can shape your shot right to left just a little it's a genuine ace opportunity, and there's a nice set of steps to get down.

Cons:

Holes 1 & 2 don't exist, they must have been removed. We found the tee box for 3, and the box where the basket should have been, but no basket. Hole 5 and the "challenge hole" amount to nothing more than a great chance to lose a disc down into what was a wet muddy creek bottom with running water when we played. A short safari helped us to find 7 & 8, but the brush was so thick there was no way to throw a disc, so we had to skip them. The basket for 14 was nowhere near where the tee sign said it should be, and either 15 or 16 was completely missing. The tee boxes are just worn spots in the dirt, and a lot of tee signs are missing or inaccurate.

Other Thoughts:

This course was kind of a good idea and has some potential. It should either be restored and maintained, or the equipment should be pulled and moved to somewhere it can be put to good use. As it exists, it was a frustrating bummer, and we won't bother to return.
