This is a historic course, one of the oldest in the state and you definitely get that old school feel. The front 9 is like a Jewish midget: Fairly short and very tight. The lines are there generally but definitely designed for the discs of yore to navigate. Many of the "long" tees, listed as blue, are basically the same length but at a very acute angle that only beat to death Aviars and lid-type discs like Polecats and Rattlers are able to manage. Putters will do most of the heavy lifting here but occasionally a mid or driver is useful, especially for sidearm or niche shots like thumbers.

The back 9 is much more like your typical wooded course in terms of length and fairway shape. It's the better of 2 halves IMO and feels more like conventional disc golf compared to the approach and scramble nature of the front 9. You can actually rip on the disc a little on the back.

The baskets are ancient DGA Machs. They have shallow trays and the chains don't like hard putts. If you're used to conventional, modern baskets and putt like Wysocki jacked up on Mountain Dew they will be the bane of your existence and the stuff of your nightmares. I actually think these baskets complement the course though. Whereas a modern basket would catch a lot more ace runs and outside the circle putts, these make the hole seem longer by requiring more precision. An inside the circle drive is that much more desirable than one just outside the circle. On most baskets, a slightly errant jump-putt won't scare you too much with a long comebacker. On these, that comebacker seems much scarier.

The tees are actually pretty good, especially for an old course. A few don't seem lined up with the fairway but otherwise no complaints. Tee signs have survived on most of the holes and are very helpful b/c many fairways are not obvious and often multiple baskets are visible. Blue and red spray painted dots on trees do a good job of showing the way.

I would absolutely not want to play here on even a decently busy day. Your chance of being hit by a disc is very high. Holes are shoehorned on top of each other, especially on the front 9, tees and baskets are in very close proximity often and there are multiple crossing fairways. You don't just get to endanger other disc golfers either. A sidewalk is in play on hole 10 and hole 11 has a basketball court directly in line with the fairway.

Apparently locals park near hole 3 and start there. It's not like hole 1 is a really long walk but hole 3's long tee is literally the sidewalk beside the road you have to park on so you see why they do this. I'm only mentioning this in the cons b/c you might be surprised to see some guys seemingly jumping in front of you at the beginning of your round.

The baskets are very hard to see. Fortunately, the holes are on the short side so it won't take you too long to scout their location before teeing off. Just keep your head on a swivel at all times, ha ha.

A lot of holes finish to the right slightly, the classic "lefty hole." Back in the day, before anyone knew what a forehand was, these must have been a nice challenge and satisfying to hit with your artistically thrown Super Puppy on a turnover. Now, you just flick a putter, collect your drop-in and repeat.

I'm glad I finally got to play this course, just from a historical perspective. It indubitably shows its age but the old-timer still has some pep in its step. You can have fun here, time warping into the early 90s and throwing your putters and flippy discs on the same lines as the early discers did back when shorts were short and a dime bag cost a dime. But you can also get really frustrated if you don't adapt and disc down because a fast distance driver here can potentially kick across 4 fairways and decapitate 6 people. And these baskets, oh man. Charmin soft putts or suffer the consequences.

But it's actually a fun little course to throw and when not very busy a peaceful place to play.
