Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Sep 10, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

Cutthroat is the newest and longest course at Farragut State Park, it is a long almost 11,000 ft par 67. This is not a course I would recommend for beginners, but if you are a more experienced disc golfer it is a great course that is unlike any other course in the area.

-Very well laid out course, excellent course flow.
-Nice, big concrete tee pads.
-Variety of different tee shots.
-Requires you to plan the landing zone of your tee shot to set yourself up for another throw.
-A lot of distance, not very many other courses like this in the area.
-Typically the least played course in the park, not very much traffic.
-Pars are very fair, a lot of the par 4's are definitely 3-able with two good shots.
-Most open course on the property, but still has a good mix of wooded and open holes.

Cons:

-Obviously not as complete as other courses on the property.
-Although there are tee signs on every hole they are basically just laminated images of google maps from overhead, not too big of an issue but just shows the in-completion in comparison to the other courses.
-No benches (not a huge issue to me but if you play with a big group or have a hard time walking on such a long course it may be a factor)
-Ground isn't the most level to walk on
-Tall grass in rough can make it difficult to find your discs, but I have played courses where it is much worse.
-I would not suggest this course to anybody who cannot consistently throw 350+ feet.

Other Thoughts:

Previous reviewers had mentioned that the course did not flow, and I did not see that at all. There are arrows on every basket pointing to the next basket, and although there are a couple long walks (4-5, 9-10) there are trails that are very easy to find, I had a map downloaded on my phone and didn't have to use it once. This course is a great addition to the courses at Farragut, but again I would not suggest playing this course if you do not want to be throwing up to 400 feet consistently.
