2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 23, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Beautiful and challenging course. Lots of variety. Plays well for both lefty and righties. Because of the difficulty it is a lot less crowded than most of Austin's courses. Bring out your long bombs.

Cons:

Be prepared to walk as much from hole to tee as you will on the course. Not sure if it is Austin or the course rating that brings out the worst in disk golfers. I have been here 5 times now and the players I have encountered are a bit on the serious side and not as friendly as other places. Parking can be tough, this is a busy park.

Other Thoughts:

Narrow fairways, unforgiving rough 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Oct 19, 2008 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Decent elevation changes for an Austin area course. Large shot selection needed; though many of the holes felt mildly repetitive: narrow fairway, then bend to the right/left to the hole, ~300 feet.

Cons:

Several of the dirt tees have large rocks jutting to the surface in the middle of them. Very little signage to indicate which way to go to get to the next hole, you basically just have to follow worn out paths through the forest. Unfortunately, on some holes there are several such paths.

Other Thoughts:

While I don't mind, there are long walks between several of the holes. This course will be difficult even if you are of intermediate skill, since most of the fairways are ~20-30 feet wide with trees overhanging the fairway on many holes. If you do go into the forest, it is very difficult to throw out of, usually a penalty stroke results. Several of the holes have water on them - but only if it has rained within the last few weeks.
