Fullbright Park DGC Is A Work In Progress! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 17, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

I sincerely hope that this course is a work in progress and not considered the finished product because right now, it's a little rough and not easy to navigate. Fullbright Park sits just off the I-82 Freeway. Actually, park of the course plays right under the freeway and hole # 7 uses the freeway's large columns as obstacles. The course is split with about half of the holes in the main open part of the park while the other seven play on the other side of the street in the more underdeveloped part.

Currently, there is no course sign, no tee signs and no tee pads. I hope they are in the future improvements file because they're badly needed. The baskets are these very bright green El Gaupo models. They are very pretty except for two or three that have these orange chains. The orange chains combined with the bright green baskets is not a good match. These look like Bozo the Clown baskets.

With no signs or pads, you are left trying to navigate with the on-line map. It helps but is still confusing. Someone has painted arrows and some tee pads on the grass and dirt. At first, I didn't know whether the painted arrows were pointing at the next tee or the basket. I ended backtracking here and there and never did find the # 12 basket.

Cons:

I have to grade this course as incomplete at present. With no signs or tee pads, it's confusing. It's no fun having to pull out the map on every hole to find your way.

The green baskets with orange chains are what my wife refers to as a gromley. That's her word for something that doesn't go well together, like carrots in your scrambled eggs. Or Bobbie Brown and Whitney Houston.

There is some nasty rough on the the far side of the course beyond the street. I threw my favorite driver way out into this nasty rough, never to be seen again. On the other hand, I did find Rosa's maroon Tern. Unfortunately, Rosa didn't include a phone # so it will probably go into the scrap pile of discs in my garage. I'll eventually pass it on to some one disc wonder.

Many holes are just wide open chucks across the open grass. Not my favorite throws.

Other Thoughts:

If I see improvements incorporated here, I'll be glad to increase my rating. Right now, I see it as a below average throw. With the aforementioned mentioned improvements, it could be a solid 2.5 average course. I think the wind might be a factor most of the time here.

Spending so much time studying my map and looking for tee pads proved to be a pretty frustrating experience for me
