As others have mentioned, the course is very well-maintained and clean. Teepads are in good shape, signs are all helpful, and course navigation was easy. The layout is pretty vanilla, but I threw most of my bag over 18 holes, so it challenged my whole game. Front 9 was a lot of fun.

Note: The course at St.Meinrad is only about 10 minutes away, and there is also a really nice 9-hole in Ferdinand as well. If you're making the drive from somewhere else (Louisville is 1hr 20 minutes away) I suggest making a day of it. Cupertino's course at St.Meinrad should be on everyone's list for the uniqueness of the location.

The back 9 starts to get very repetitive. You basically just play back and forth across a large, open field. I was definitely glad when I got to #16 and saw some variety again.

Someone mentioned a hike to #1 and back to the car from #18. I am assuming they played the course several years ago. There is now a large gravel lot that sits roughly between #1 and #18. It made the walk to both easy.

There are also really nice, clean restrooms in the parking lot. Typical of most Indiana parks, the facilities are great.

1) Another HB Clark designed course so you know the amenities will be solid, large textured concrete 4' x 12' concrete teepads in great shape, DGA baskets, and full color tee signs with hole map and all relevant information (though dated as this is an older design but still provide everything you need).

2) I'd say this course is Intermediate level difficulty, people who throw controlled over 400 feet can shred this course while people who throw under 300 feet will struggle. Rides the line well between not being a beginners course and not trying to do too much and be a pro course.

3) Great use of the elevation, limited trees, and the multiple ponds available. Lots of subtle up, down, and side slopes on this track, nothing overbearing, but it helps give the course a tiny bit of variety that if the property were flat would hurt its score.

4) The course has aged well and is well maintained. The original fairways are mowed and well taken care of and whoever maintains the course has decided to utilize tall grass "rough" along the fairways to give the open holes shape, provide additional challenge, and it can be used for OB lines in tournaments if needed. The rough is only about mid shin high, but is affective and well kept. It doesn't look out of place at all.

5) Very intuitive flow of play (despite figuring out where to park not being so intuitive), but once you get to hole 1, the flow is natural and you can see the next tee pad from the previous basket without much difficulty at all.

6) Emphasis again on how clean and well kept the park was. Benches on several holes and around the ponds, trash cans available every few holes, and I didn't encounter much if any liter any of the times I've played here.

7) Cart friendly course, especially if you stay in the intended fairways and out of the thicker wooded areas off the tee. Easy walk (though has some elevation) and has plenty of pretty things to look at along the way.

8) Course feels like it "resolves" itself. You start playing around the water, dip into the woods for a bit, stretch your legs on some longer open holes, dip into some woods, and then finish over the water. There really are no curveballs or holes that don't fit.

9) Course has grown in nicely since the pictures on the site, grass is well taken care of, trees have grown and gotten bigger, gaps have gotten smaller. While not impossibly difficult, or amazingly picturesque, this course doesn't disappoint with visual beauty and challenge for the average bagger.

10) Hole 18 is definitely the intended signature hole of the course. A 300 ft Par 3 over the pond to tiny green that slopes back down towards the water protected by a wall of trees. You can throw further left to make the throw over the water shorter, but you risk throwing over an OB walking path, and you still have to navigate through multitudes of mature trees to get up the green. Not a beginner friendly hole, but very beautiful regardless.

1) Long walk from parking lot to Hole #1 and from Hole #18 back to parking lot. This really couldn't be avoided by the course designer based on the way the buildings, road and parking lot on the property is shaped. So not a huge knock.

2) Better players and seasoned vets will be off-put by the lack of variety in hole shapes and feel like you are playing several copies of the same hole at times. This happens in park golf occasionally and it's really hard to avoid. A lot of these holes will blend together, especially the 325-375 range Par 3's throughout the course.

3) Soft Par 4's. There are some very weak par 4's coupled with some really difficult Par 3's. It's an odd combination that might make a beginner think this course is for them. But there are 6 holes where losing a disc from the tee is a real thing and probably not the course I would bring a beginner to until they were more seasoned.

4) Course appears to have drainage problems when it rains, several of the tee pads were slick and mud/silt deposits on them and it hadn't rained in a few days when we played. Some low lying spots in the fairway were still a little damp and soggy.

5) You can let it fly on this course, especially on the Par 4's, but outside of Hole #5 there is really no technical wooded holes on the entire course. Shot shaping is a pretty low requirement and if that's the type of golf you enjoy, this course fails to deliver.

Definitely a good course that has aged well and is well maintained. The property provides some wonderful features that add to the course and the property prevents some things from being better. Not a destination course on it's own, however, if you happen to visit the Jasper IN area there are multiple courses solid enough in the area to warrant a weekend bagging them all. Neihaus, Patoka Lake, and this one would make for a wonderful weekend of disc golf, especially with friends or family.

New cement tee boxes, new baskets. Good elevation and some long holes. Very pretty course. No one else playing when we did.

Some holes very near water and risk losing discs. Not great course for beginner or those who have difficulty walking long distances.

Will play again when it's warmer and less windy.

Lots of water shots if you like that kind of thing. The first four holes & #18 (built on existing parkland, as opposed to the rest of the holes, which are on land cleared specifically for the course,) are well-manicured. A couple of good elevation changes.
Concrete teepads on all holes.
Good signage.
Good, quality DGA baskets.
It is obvious that the local guys have put in tons of hours to bring this course to life, and if the parks department puts in an ongoing effort there is great potential.

Part of what I say here is personal preference and part is a result of the course being new, so take it for what you will.
There is a lack of variety on several holes, as they seem to just be open field shots, more or less.
There is also very little shade. This isn't an issue for some people, but guys in their 40s who aren't in the best shape (like me,) don't do well in the sunlight. As a matter of fact, I attempted to play this course the week it opened (in early summer,) and it was so hot I couldn't finish.
There also is no water (drinkable, that is,) or seating anywhere. If you're heading out here take water with you, as there isn't even a convenience store within 7-10 miles from the south (I'm not sure about what you might have coming from Jasper to the north.) Depending on your direction hit a store in Huntingburg, St. Anthony, or down by I-64 if you need to buy a drink.
I don't know if there are plans to add benches, but I think it would be difficult to put in water fountains.
A few of the issues will hopefully be taken care of when the course gets older. For instance, all the fairways have been plowed and are a mess if it's rained. I found it odd that I had the course to myself on a Friday afternoon, but when I stepped into the soup that was masquerading as the fairway on #6 I understood why--the locals knew to avoid the course. It has been seeded, and hopefully that will fix the issue next year; however, the plowing was done roughly, so I don't know how much the dirt will level out. I found myself trying to land just off the side of the fairway, but luckily the holes are mostly wide open enough to allow for that.
The teepads are great, but many of them are covered in mud that has washed over them.
The gnats were horrible the last 3 or 4 holes--it was almost impossible to walk, much less throw.

#1-270 feet. Straight shot with one big tree about 80 feet in front of the teepad. You have to throw low to get under it and you have the lake about 20 feet right of the basket. I threw a roller wide left and let it turn back to the basket (I throw left-hand forehand.)

#2-434 feet. Up and over a small hill with the lake along the entire right side of the fairway, and your approach shot will probably have to go over the corner of the lake. The basket sits behind several mature trees, and going through them is blind luck. You can go left of them if you want, avoiding the lake, but most will likely opt for a spike hyzer shot that goes over the water and dives back at the basket.

#3-440 feet. You're teeing off at one end of the retaining dam and the basket is at the other end of it so you have the lake the whole length of the fairway to your right. The level part of the dam is only about 15-20' wide and to the left of it is a very steep hill.

#4-363 feet. Tricky hole that makes you choose. You have a tree in front of you so you either have to swing a wide hyzer out over the lake to your right or go to the left around another tree (and there's a road to the left that's OB, as well. You have to have a clean shot either direction or you've got a good chance of ending up in the lake. Your approach shot is probably going to have to stay low, as the basket is tucked in behind some mature trees with a thick batch of trees to the right.

#5-240 feet. The only wooded hole on the entire course is a dogleg right. It's not a long hole, but the turn is fairly sharp and slightly uphill.

#6-291 feet. This one goes uphill, so it plays a bit longer than it is. You have to hit a fairly narrow gap at about the 150' mark, but a lot of people might throw high enough to miss the trouble until these trees get bigger. Past that gap the hill ends and the fairway is level; basket is fairly wide open.

#7 574 feet. Long, fairly wide open, little to get in your way. There is a road to the left that's OB, but it should rarely come into play.

#8-319 feet. This one is a bit deceptive when you look at it the first time because you see what looks like a sweeping left turn. In reality, the basket sits behind the trees that are more or less directly in front of you, so the hole actually plays left-to-right. It should be a pretty simple flick shot for most righties. If you don't have a huge arm you might find yourself throwing a thumber over the trees for your second shot. They're nothing an average player can't easily clear.

#9-478 feet. There is a bit of an hourglass form to the fairway, as there is a relatively narrow gap about 250 feet down the fairway, but you can get left or right of it and be OK, as well.

#10-487 feet. This one is slightly uphill, and there's a pond you have to cross on your second shot. The first time I played this hole it was hot and the pond was almost dried up, but the second time it was more than full. The basket doesn't sit more than 20 or 30 feet past the pond when it's full and there are a couple of smaller trees on the other side of the pond that could cause trouble.

#11-322 feet. This one plays as a slightly right to left and is downhill. There is some trepidation in "going for it" as the hill become fairly steep and if you were to end up rolling you'd have a good chance of finding yourself over a walking path (and perhaps all the way into the lake) and OB. This one will be an ace-teaser, as the downhill trajectory makes it easier to reach than most holes of this length.

#12-325 feet. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction--that hill you just went down, you now have to head back up. This one is fairly steep, and whereas the downhill 322 plays short, this one plays much more than 325. The basket sits in some trees to the right at the top of the hill. The fairway in decent width, but not wide-open like a lot of the holes here.

#13-348 feet. Dogleg left. There's a couple of trees near where you'd like to make your turn that hinder the throw, but you can also get behind some trees if you go straight. The basket sits up an embankment that's about 4' high.

#14-493 feet. Pretty flat, pretty straight.

#15-380 feet. Also fairly flat and straight, with some trees to the right of the basket if you get too far.

#16-522 feet. Long bomber. There are some trees on both sides of the fairway, but you can still get fairly wide to either side and not be in trouble. The hole is a slight uphill incline most of the way but you do crest the hill and head back downhill a bit to the basket.

#17-375 feet. This one is a downhill right turn that will probably be a flick for most righties. Get too far without turning and you can end up in thick underbrush. I would have liked to play this one as a roller, but the condition of the fairway took that shot away. If you get too far past the basket there is a walking path, but it shouldn't be an issue most of the time.

#18-300 feet. Surely the signature hole of the course, the hole is over the lake. You can aim left of the hole and make it a shorter shot across the water, but then you have to contend with the possibility of going too far and over the walking path (OB,) and you will have to throw through several mature trees. Also, if you take the shorter option you run the risk of your second throw rolling downhill from the basket and into the water. The 300' distance honestly felt incorrect to me, as I usually feel lucky to throw that far--I threw the hole twice and easily cleared the lake both times, the second of which was right of the basket, actually traveling farther than the 300'. I was lucky enough to play it with the wind I wanted; it would be a completely different scenario under other conditions.

I played this course just a few days after it opened.
The front four holes that play around the pond are beautiful.
1. small turnover/flick shot towards the water and under the Space Tree (this tree germinated in outer space, thats cool)
2. and 3. are both big bombs with the water on your right - 3. is a bomb as fairway along the damn holding the pond
4. is a cool blind hyzer or turnover next to the water

After that the course needs to grow. Hole 5 was a cutout turnover through the woods, in time this hole will come together.

Holes 6 - 16 - honestly i dont remember the difference between most of them. Lots of big shots, lots of open space, with small shrub trees to help define directions

17 was a great downhill turnover/flick
18 is a pretty 300 ft shot over another pond

I really dont want to con this course that much. It is brand new and it has great potential.

When I played it the grass was uncut for hole 6 - 17
The trees will grow and they will help to define more of the big open shots.

Summer time sorta sucks as there is very little shade.

As i said its a brand new course

Once the grass is cut, teepads are installed, other amenties are included - I am sure the rest of the course will begin to be a great as the first 4 holes.

When I finished playing I had little desire to run through the course again that day - but I would play the front 4 holes multiple times for sure.

I look forward to checking this place out again and upgrading its ratings, in time it will deserve it im sure.
