Cons:
way to easy despite most of the holes being over 350'
no trees are other obstacles at all
bugs are really bad in summer because of the reservoir .
The baskets were not properly installed and are wobbly and coming out of the ground after only a year .
Every hole is a rbh straight ahead shot ,theres so many different types of hole that could be there ,forehand shots around bends and some major doglegs ,but the designer didn't use any other shot types which makes the course seriously boring

Other Thoughts:
The course could be good ,with proper design by someone that knows what there doing ,the course doesn't utilize the most of the area .
There much better options for the area ,bryan just down the road and will be a 18 hole course as of spring with dual tees

Pros:
Another place in NW Ohio to huk plastic.
Hard to lose a disc.
Fairways were mowed very nicely.

Cons:
9 baskets placed in a wide open field next to the city reservoir. No water comes into play however, unless you include the swamp I found around the basket for #5.
I don't believe the signage accurately portrays distance. Either that or I threw my Gator 300' when I can barely get my drivers out that far.
Natural tees

Other Thoughts:
Short and wide open does not make for a very substantial challenge. The 'rough' was only about 4" tall and consisted of grass and clover. Only chances of losing a disc were hole 5 or hole 9, which abut a treeline protecting a creek.Holes 6, 7 and 8 run along the same treeline, but the basket placement negates most chances of getting lost, barring a badly shanked drive. I enjoy all my rounds of disc golf, but this course was very underwhelming.
