Hildebran Community Park is a small rural town park with a playground, and it seems like a fun place to bring your family on the weekend if you live in the area. The course was designed as a small nine hole course - designed as a beginner friendly pitch-and-putt course. The course has tee signs for all of the holes and features DISCatcher baskets.

The course is on the side of a hill, so it gives a chance for beginners to quickly learn about playing with elevation. The use of the elevation was one of the better aspects of the course, because you had some uphill shots, downhill shots, and some across the hill with the potential for roll-aways. For players who are not beginners, it is a great place to practice your approach shots or jump putts depending on how far you putt from.

This course is very compact. I was able to grab two putters and blow through this course in less than 15 minutes, and I was taking my time.

The park has clearly undergone some changes since the pictures were taken here. Many of the trees on this course have been cut, making it feel more crowded and small. This was somewhat upsetting, because the way the course was designed, it looked like beginners would actually have to shape their shots a little. Now, every hole was just a straight shot - where I just jump putted directly at the basket.

Hole 1 is missing. It looks like the basket was pulled because it was too close to the road?

With all the trees missing the course almost feels like 8 baskets strewn around a small hillside with some general flow between them. There really isn't much to the course at this point.

I am going to give Hildebran Community a 0.5 rating because while there really isn't much here - it at least is a place where beginners and younger players could come and enjoy their time, or a putt putt course for experienced players. If the course still looked like it did in the pictures here on DGCR, before the vast majority of trees were removed, I think I could (and likely would) have made an argument for giving this course half a point higher score. But with all of them gone, even if Hole 1 was rebuilt, I don't think the course would warrant a higher score than I am giving it.

Favorite Hole: 4

-Nice small park on a pretty hilly terrain. Course is very short so it goes to show how disc golf can be very family friendly. I saw a man and woman with a young daughter and infant. Every one except the baby was playing the course.

-For a very short course, it gives a few lines to hit and has some good elevation change. Makes the holes play a good bit shorter or longer due to elevation.

-Only eight baskets. The basket for #1 is gone since it was too close to the parking lot.

-For a very short course, it's kind of hard to navigate. There are many baskets and tee pads that are EXTREMELY close in proximity. #2 and #4 are beside each other. #7 and #9 are beside each other too.

-Some of the tee signs are facing the opposite direction from where the basket is. #4 is 108' and straight. I thought the basket for #7 or #9 was the basket for #4. Nope! It's the other direction. When you tee off, the tee sign should be visible. Not the case here

-Some hanging limbs touching the baskets and many the trees have poison ivy around them along with ankle high green leaves. #9 is a mess!

-All and all, pretty boring. Great for upshot warmups but none of the holes are that fun. You are just tossing putters generally speaking.

-Many trees have been cut down, so it's more open than it used to be. Still some to avoid but I'd say it has a new purpose to it. Not only can you work on upshots here, you can introduce the game to your kids and it won't be frustrating since there aren't that many trees. Has a good amount of obstacles for starters to avoid.

-It's not that it isn't worth the stop for more competitive players because it gets really monotonous just practicing in the small backyard. It's fine for what it's made for. Wouldn't hurt to practice some short shots before a round at Glenn or The Bear. On the other hand, it's not worth more than maybe thirty minutes of your time if you aren't a beginner.

This course is what it is. It's not designed to be for advanced players, or intermediate ones, and maybe not even beginners. It's not a pitch-and-putt, it's a putt-and-putt. But it's at a community center and park and I imagine it was designed for kids to introduce them to the game. In that sense, it succeeds. I could take my 3 boys there, who all like to play, and they would have fun. But even they would get bored on this course pretty quickly.

+ You get 9 solid chances at getting aces.

+ You can play the whole course with a putter, so play fast, put pressure on yourself to make putts, etc.

+ The baskets were good quality.

Like I said, this course is what it is. It's not going to be a challenge to 90% of the folks playing disc golf.

- One of if not THE easiest course I've played (142 courses and counting).

- It's 9 putts off the tee; no variety.

- Each hole is par 3, but I'd call that the kids par. Even for beginners to intermediate, each hole should probably be par 2.

- Sometimes the upkeep can lapse a little in the summer. Watch for poison ivy and snakes.

I was on an 8-hour drive home and wanted to break up the trip, so I stopped here to play. I wanted to play fast and get back on the road, so I carried one disc (all that's needed anyway) and jogged each hole. I finished in 6 minutes. SIX minutes! So, yeah, it's not a challenge, but it's a safe course, well maintained, and if you want to practice putting, notch another course, or introduce the game to your kids, try this one out.

Layout - If you need a place to practice approach shots in the 80-130ft range with a bit of elevation changes and a few trees in your way here you go; because this course is just 9 holes in that range and most are straight on and open.

If you like to put all of your aces in your sig here you go, rack em up.

If you've got a kid you want to teach the game here you go, this course has got to be designed for small kids.

If you like to hit little kids with discs while they're learning DG or exercising on little gyms here you go.... wait.....

Atmosphere - Looks like a nice little park area for kids.

Equipment - Brand spanking new baskets and no tee pads, yeah tee pads are completely unnecessary here.

Layout - This course is obviously designed for kids so I hate to rip in to it but...

They put tee pad areas really close to baskets.. and they had to because there are 9 holes on about an acre of property which is on a hillside. Not to mention that #9 plays with the basket 15' in front of a exercise gym built for kids.

For a course that looks to be for kids they sure did make it dangerous. They should literally take at least 3 baskets out to use the space in a more interesting and safe manner.

They did try to add some variety in terms of hole design but most are just straight on open shots.

I wouldn't even bring new players here that are older, they'll think disc golf is a joke.

Equipment - Tee pads aren't needed but signs are. It's not exactly clear where all of the tees are.

It's a course built for kids.. how many times can I say that? I'd like to say well it's intended for a certain skill level and with that in mind it's a solid course but it's not. I honestly wouldn't bring my kid here to learn with the way it's set up.
