As you turn into the park there is a large sign listing the park's attractions and there at the bottom of the list is Disc Golf. Then when you drive about a 1/4 mile into the park, another disc golf sign points you to the course. Wow, two disc golf signs in one park is a record.

Walk between the tennis courts to arrive at the course's staging area. Here you will find a small pavilion with bench, garbage can and the course map, all undercover. The teepads are over blocks which are great here. The signs used to be the old school fiber glass ones, which always get beat to death. The old frames are used but with basic newer signs showing the hole # and distance.

# 1 is 216' is a simple little hyser throw to a basket just behind a couple of trees. Holes 1-6 play in this first area then you cross the park road to play # 7. # 7 kind of has it's own little piece of park, then you walk around the corner to arrive at the interesting, little # 8. It's a short little hyser which keeps turning all the way back into a fishhook. The sign says it's 331' but it's more liike 200', tops. I think a roller would be the preferred shot here.

The course is basically flat.

Recreational level. Better players won't be challenged here.

I agree with a previous reviewer who commented that holes 11-15 are redundant and not real creative.

The navigation from 17 to18 was a little tricky.

I actually liked playing at Greenwood. It's a recreational course and nothing more. That means shorter holes, less danger, not as challenging and generally, a less stressful round. If you're looking for an advanced level course with longer holes and challenging water carries and so on, then this is probably not the course for you. If you're a less serious,recreational player, you'll like Greenwood. I did.

This course is a fairly easy course settled in a nice park north of Baton Rouge. The course focuses more on the accuracy aspect of your game rather than length with the holes averaging out around 250'.

Even though the course is short it still has a lot to offer. Some holes have very tight windows to hit like 6. Some holes need a anhyzer or hyzer shot off the tee. Hole 8 is perhaps the most unique hole on the course. It is a horseshoe with a strategic mando that needs a roller to get to the basket in one shot.

There are some risk/reward off the tee on some holes. On Hole 9 you can cut the OB creek and get to the basket in one or play safe to the left.

The signs at the course are great and the course is very easy to navigate. According to locals, the course has been re done and it's current layout is multiple times better than the previous.

Sadly besides the few holes I mentioned the course is short and repetitive. Short courses are fine but I did not feel that Greenwood Park had enough variety to accompany the distance which makes it a very average course.

There are some drop off near baskets. Be careful of your footing and be sure to watch your disc all the way to the ground. A bad shot can lead to an itchy experience with poison ivy in a few places.
I usually do not have a problem wading into water to retrieve a disc, however on the few bits of water on the course the water is absolutely rancid smelling.

I had more fun here than Flanacher. The atmosphere is nicer here, the course is easy but hard enough to keep you coming back.

However, the course is nothing special and you will not see much here that you would not see elsewhere.

The locals are super friendly. They have random draw doubles every Tuesday at 6:30 and they love to have new players which I did when I went.

Easiest and most beginner-friendly course in the area. Plenty of tight shots will test your accuracy, but you won't be too harshly punished if you miss the line. You'll give up shots at birdie and might have a tough time making par, but you won't be entirely out of it. No holes are unreasonably long, and many holes are good birdie options if you're accurate enough off the tee. Course seemed well maintained with concrete pavers for tees, and grass not overgrown, and baskets in good shape. Few water hazards, but one in particular (9 and 16) deserves some respect and is easily in play. It's easy to navigate the course.

Not a whole lot of shot variation (I almost exclusively used a RH forehand for straight and slight fade to the right), practically no elevation change, and not a lot of variance (the only obstacle is typically trees). Some holes are heavily treed without a clear line so that unless you're very accurate, you'll be throwing and hoping for the best. A stretch on the back 9 from 11-15 is very uninteresting and repetitive, with moderate distance holes with occasional trees to dodge.

Definitely a fun, easy course to play. Great for beginners, as it's fairly tough to lose a disc (outside of the water hazard on 9/16). There's a pro shop with restrooms, water fountain, drinks, equipment, and scorecards in the middle of the tennis courts.
