This course has several well thought out and shaped holes. While there are relatively few disc golf courses in Korea, the variety of tee pads and number of holes present a good opportunity to grow and develop your skills if you can frequent here. I would describe this course as being good enough for a local course, but not one I would go out of my way to play.

- 3 tee areas on each hole, red and blue marked by colored markers. The blue and red had some sort of rope mats built into the ground to help with traction and wear presumably
- permanent baskets with korean flags on top help make them more visibile
- A combination of long and short holes.
- Hole signs near the red tees on each hole
- I was able to get to and from this course using public transportation from downtown (bus route 523)
- big sign near hole 1 showing the layout of the disc golf course
- benches and plenty of shade throughout the park

It seems since the course has been installed, not a lot of focus has been put into maintaining the course. A few large bushes in front of the blue tees have grown pretty high, and it seems trees have been added to fairways without consideration for the disc golf course. I liked about 9-12 of the holes here, the full 18 holes feel a little forced. I was pretty frustrated with the lack of clear fairways/routes until I got to hole 6-7. I was contemplating just leaving the course after the first few holes, but after that point the fairways seemed a lot more defined and I enjoyed the course and my time much more.

- this is a multi-use park, keep an eye out for other park goers
- Several of the holes seem to just randomly go through groves of small trees. frustrating and boring playing several of these holes in a row
- because of all of the 10-20 ft trees many baskets were hard to see so I spent a lot of time walking the length of the holes looking for the baskets
- Hard to see/find the teepads when walking to the next hole

I mostly came to this course because it would be cool to have played disc golf in multiple countries. Navigating to and from here was relatively straight forward. I used the address from the discgolfinkorea blog to get here by taxi, then on the way back I used the KakaoBus app to located the bus stop across the street and catch a bus (# 523) back into downtown.

This course has a good foundation and a decent amount of hole variety. Based on pictures it seems like many of the holes were designed when there were less/smaller trees in the park. As the trees have grown/more been planted it makes the baskets harder to see, and the fairways less obvious. I liked the feel of the woven mats integrated into the natural tee-pads, even though they were lumpy, it still seemed better than throwing from dirt.

I think the biggest thing to improve the rating here would be working with the equivalent of the parks department to possibly remove trees from a few of the fairways to give them more defined shapes. A little bit of course navigation signs would help moving from hole to hole.

If you are looking to play disc golf in Korea check out the "disc golfers in Korea" facebook group. That is how I verified that this course was still active and based on posts it seems like there might be several other disc golf courses in Korea that are unlisted.

-A greater variety of shots than the other Korean "courses" I've played
-Three separate teepads per hole...reds, blues and yellows (Juniors tees) make it a good place to play for really any skill level
-Guardian trees and OB that are very tough, but usually not unfair
-A few long bomber holes
-Good use of the available land
-Locals are more than happy to guide you around...plenty of English speakers who play there every week to show you the "local" routes

-Not easily accesable...it's outside of the town of Daegu and if you are not in the Daegu/Camp Walker area, it can be kind of a pain
-For as much as KPDGA hypes up the course, it can use a lot of maintenance...it's okay not to have actual teepads, but there needs to be some work done on the tee-off areas. Footing is problematic.
-Fairly high-use park that sees lots of non-disc golf traffic. Koreans, by and large, have no clue what disc golf is and very little is being done to educate them. They WILL stand in fairways or around baskets. BE COURTEOUS AND DO NOT THROW ON THEM!
-There are a lot of mandos on this course, but only one of them made sense. Honestly, the others seem like they were put there just to take away good routes so that experienced players wouldn't have any advantage
-Very lefty and/or forehand friendly...not a huge con, I suppose, but at my age it's getting to the point where after two rounds of throwing huge flick hyzers to go over the stupid trees on every hole, my shoulder is killing me.

This is the pride and joy of Korea and KPDGA, and honestly, that seems silly to me. While this is a decent course, and I have fun playing it, it is not centrally located, has a steep learning curve, and highly favors the select few who can play it daily or weekly. I really wish KPDGA would focus more on installing more courses throughout Korea, but that just isn't in their short or long-term plans. So the DERP it is.

If teepads were put in, some of the more ridiculous mandos (one hole has a triple mando...a double mando about twelve feet wide but also a height mando which prevents anything other than a shot down the gut...a thumber or tommy would be parked everytime) were removed and a few trees were trimmed (not removed) I would bump this up a full point. But as it stands, DERP is nothing special...but it's special for Korea, if that makes sense.
