Classic Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 21, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Steady Ed!!! Great putting area to warm up. Secluded. Never crowded. Multiple tee pads at most holes. Good variety of shots IMO. Absolutely classic course set up the way the game was meant to be played.

Cons:

Gets hot. Bring lots of water. Can get itchy when grass is high.

Other Thoughts:

Instead of spinning the wheel before the first hole, we used to take a single die with us and roll at every hole to determine what pad to play from. Make for a fun spin on the round.

Where it all begain 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 8, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

- huge variety of shots
- 5+ tee options on most holes
- great history here, for any disc golf fans

Cons:

- a few of the tee pads are difficult to locate
- gun range close by is quite noise-y

Other Thoughts:

Knowing that this course was created by the man himself, Steady Ed, I had high expectations. I was not let down. It is a fantastic course with a ton of variety, not just in the holes themselves but also the tee "set" options. Having the spinning wheel near hole one is a terrific way to randomize the tee options you play and create even more variety. The terrain here is not forgiving, especially the grabby manzanita trees; I consider most of this a challenge rather than a annoyance. The only exception to this is the obnoxious sticker burrs that WILL get stuck in your pants/socks/leg hairs if you have any throws that don't land in a favorable location. Regardless, the course is more than worth it and after playing it three times in two days, I still greatly enjoyed it. The historic pre-basket pole targets are cool addition as well.

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:May 9, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

Very open, lots of open and fun shots with challenging bends and hills that make this course one of the best. Every hole is marked with a sign at the tee pad also every tee has up to 5 some holes have 6 alternate tee pads. Also there are multiple hole locations. Also has a water mister on hole 12 to keep you cool on hot days.

Cons:

The all natural pads can cause you to slip at times. maybe too many tee pad locations, which can be a bit confusing at first.

Other Thoughts:

play on a beautiful sunny day. Also bring water and food, and allow plenty of time to play this course.
