Super short and simple 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 2, 2017 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

-Baskets are in good shape and catch well.
-Tee sigh are helpful both in accurately telling distances and showing pin placement.
-Every bit of the land they had to use was put into the course to make it more interesting to play.
-There is a place to sit on every tee pad.
-Shorter holes, so the play time is fast and they are good for shorter upshot practice.
-Never crowded (I have never seen another golfer here).
-This course is outside of a school, so it helps get children into disc golf and it grows the sport.
-There is no courses in this area so this is a nice addition for the local golfers.
-The grass is always well mowed and its a present experience to play.

Cons:

-The tee pads are a mixture of gravel and dirt, and they have started to erode away leaving a uneven rutted tee.
-There is only pin placement for each hole.
-Holes 1,3,4,5,6,9 all are near parking lots or completely cross over the road making it potentially unsafe for drivers or perceptions walking on the sidewalks.
-Hole 1 had a basket near a fenced in backyard that drives can sometimes land in (I never got my labeled disc back).
-The tee for hole 5 is in a fenced of area where the football field is and I've never played at a time where the tee is accessible.
-It can be hard to navigate the course because the tees can be hard to find from the previous basket. (Basket 4 to Tee 5, Basket 5 to Tee 6)
-The course runs along a rather nasty storm drain ditch filled with stagnant water and trash.
-You can only play this when school is not in session.
-Some holes come close to crossing fairways with baskets 7 and 9 being around 35-40 feet apart, however this course in not heavenly used so that shouldn't be a issue.

Other Thoughts:

This course is great is you want a quick round on a peaceful quite course. There are great options for someone looking to get some putting and approaching practice. Its never crowded and helps get kids into the game. I would not recommend it for a competitive play as the holes are so simple that there is not really a test of skill. If your a local living in the area or passing through this might be a place you want to visit (If school is out) but don't go out of your way to play here.

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Dec 4, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Good new tee signs
- the dirt/gravel tees here are much better than the ones at CCU, and they are well marked by the tee signs
- good baskets with numbers
- a little elevation change on some holes
- some OB and a few other obstacles make for some technical shots
- some challenging baskets placements to make for some tricky shots
- navigation of the course is pretty easy

Cons:

- holes 9 ends pretty far from hole 1
- not much of a variety of distances, 150 to 300 feet, mostly a shorter course
- a couple holes throw over a street, it feels weird looking for cars coming before you throw
- considering this is a beginner course, a few holes can be pretty dangerous, throwing near streets, parking lots, and buidlings

Other Thoughts:

Pretty fun course for a relatively quick round. Some what of a weird layout but I enjoyed most of the holes.
