This little nine-hole course starts beside the gym. The campus is green, well-manicured, has some small hills and a creek comes into play. It plays as an easy rec course but is ideal for a quick round for college students. The signs are marked by small maroon poles. The Monkey Trap baskets are also a pretty maroon color so I assume Maroon is the school's color. The tee pads are small rubber pads. They're a little short for a proper run up but you don't much on all these 200-250' holes. Navigation was a little confusing after playing the first four but there were a couple students playing who pointed me over to # 5 which is past the girls' softball field. # 5 plays 265' across the creek with trees all along. It's probably easy to splash one here but the creek is harmless. The creek is also close behind the # 6 basket. 6-8 all have a few mature trees to avoid. You finish with # 9 which is a mostly open 330' throw.

I parked in front of the gym so never really found # 1 so started on # 2 and finished with # 1. Needed some help finding # 5, the creek hole, past the softball field.
There are some missing numbers on a couple of the maroon poles.
All recreation/beginner type holes. Perfect for most college students who are casual players just looking for a little recreation.
Possibility of a splash down in the creek on 5 and 6.

An excellent little throw for the one disc, flip flop wearing college scene. Some challenge, very little chance of lost discs and mostly non-threatening holes. Another college course where I could see myself playing here every day as a student.

Nice little course on the school grounds.

Well maintained and easy to follow.

Good use of elevation, mature trees and the creek that runs at the far end of the campus....

Memorable holes:

#1 Straight level throw to a basket that is on the end of a plateau that drops off to the rear and the right of the basket.

#2 Similar throw but several trees as protection

#4 Down a hill with two large trees as protection on right side of fairway

#5 Throw across the creek (creek is about 3/4 of the way from tee box)

#6 Straight throw to basket that is positioned 10 feet in front the creek.

7-8-9.. straight throws with mature trees as protection.

Rubber mats for tee boxes... very short...allows for a step and a half throw... some are getting uneven.

Long walk from #5 tee to basket... no close bridge across creek.

Some signage missing.

Was coaching a St Louis team on site for a soccer tourney and had a two hour break between games.... glad I always travel with the discs!!

Course is a fun little course, quick to play....

Needs a bit of sprucing up.... put in concrete pads and replace the missing signage and this gains a whole point in my book!! Flow is great, thought needed for shots, creek adds a neat scenic aspect...

If you're in Springfield, it's definitely worth the stop...

1. Fun and quick course to play. At most it takes ½ an hour to play.
2. A good beginner course that a more advanced player can enjoy too.
3. It's a well-designed course. Mature trees and the creek force shots instead of the designer arbitrarily creating mandos.
4. One of best manicured courses I have played. The grass is always cut, the baskets and signs are well cared for, and there is not any trash lying around.
5. Disc can easily be retrieved from the water hazards.
6. Tee pads on every hole. It should be mentioned that the pads are short and rubber so this isn't a big pro, but it's better than natural tee pads.
7. There is always another person playing, but the course is never so crowded that it slows down play. Also, the people are friendly, and willing to help you find the next tee.

1. The walks between holes 4 & 5, 6 & 7, and 7 & 8 are fairly long. This can make finding the next hole difficult if you don't know your way around.
2. Holes 2, 3, and 4 are too clumped together. On these holes you have to watch for other people's discs.
3. Hole 9 is across a field that is regularly used, and sometimes times this hole has to be skipped.
4. The tee pads are too short, and this is causing them to become rutted on the front and back. Normally this isn't a problem, but if it is wet the ruts become mud pits.
5. Holes 1, 2, and 4 are right next to busy parking areas meaning an errant throw could easily hit a car.
6. The creek on holes 6 and 7 has no nearby bridge. You either have to go out of your way, or hop across loose rocks in the creek.

To find hole 5 walk north from number 4's basket. After you've gone between the baseball fields the tee for 5 is on your left. To find hole 7 walk keep following the creek towards Division, walk across the drainage bridge, and hole 7 is on your left. Hole 8 is across the soccer field and the entry road. It is at the corner of the entry road and Division.

This is a fun and quick course that is only 5 minutes from 65 and Division. Head west on Division until you cross Glenstone, after the light turn left into Evangel. This way will be quicker for everyone except people driving east on 44.
