Pros:
This is kind of a hard course to rate as I always get kind of pumped that courses are at schools and hopefully the game of disc golf can be found by someone who wouldn't normally play and it can help grow the sport. This is located in the back of the East Rockford Middle school building and wraps around some of the baseball fields and tracks. I also noticed that I am getting to 100 courses played and this was #96!
-Baskets - They are new disc catcher baskets.
-Stroller friendly - I took my son here in his stroller and there are a lot of paths that make this fairly easy to move around.
-Manicured - the grass here is nice and there is not really going to be any rough. As I mentioned above the grass was also cut well enough that a not super off-road stroller still made it through the course easily.
Cons:
- Extras - No Tee Signs, no Tee Pads, no Map on site, and honestly to play this course you need to have UDisc to figure it out. I even had a slightly hard time figuring it out with this.
- Busy - I went at 8:30 AM on a Saturday and a few baseball practices were happening. An arrant shot can land on the field they using. A lot of people were walking around the paths too which will force you to wait for people to pass by also.
- Course Design - I feel weird putting this as the bullet point, and honestly not sure what to call this, but with the space provided it does a good job of having some "Fun" holes, but over all it goes in and out of the other stuff that makes it busy. I am not sure the best time to be here as the fields will most likely be in play all summer, and you go in and out of them.
Other Thoughts:
Over all, I'd guess this isn't going to be a course you are going to play a ton, but if you are going to Courtland it may be worth checking out. If you live near by this may be a good one to be able to get a few holes in when you have 30 minutes.
I noticed others mention Porta Potties, I only saw one while I was there that I remembered and it was knocked over.
