Needs yardwork. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 24, 2013 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

For really only being a 9 hole course, I love the layout.

Cons:

There are 3-4 holes that are almost unplayable because of the overgrowth. Makes you scared to drive as discs can get lost for a long time in some of the overgrowth and brush that lies right inbetween the tee and basket on some holes.

Other Thoughts:

If somebody would weed eat certain areas it would be a 4/5.

Fun Little Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 17, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

There is a map to the course close to 1 tee. Like new disc catchers. Trees make it a fun course alway have to think before you make your drive. Great if you have a family because your never to far away from play ground picinic area or pavillion restrooms. Lots of short holes which was great for me being a beginner birdie and pared lots of holes good players have got lots of ace shots. Did not take a long time to play 18 holes.

Cons:

Lots of poision ivy/oak luckly it don't bother me. All tees are leaning but not cracked they didn't build tees to level but what ever the ground was when built.

Other Thoughts:

This is a short course paradise and can be played very quickly if wanted. This course has lots of maturing to do but as more time goes by it will turn into a very playable and used course. Seems as people living in the area are new to this. So if your from out of town you shouldn't be bothered by anyone.

Decent Course, Fun 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 19, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Tricky shots, Especially on hole 5. Down hill holes you must be careful about distance. Not the greatest course for beginners, many trees don't give much room for error. A great course and a good way to bring the sport into the community, first course in the county and excited to see more come soon.

Cons:

Tees are hard to find, an awkward walk from 3 to 4 and 7 to 8. Took me some walking around to find tee's. Some trees should be removed to make better shots. Some tees have already sunk into the ground which makes awkward tee shots.

Other Thoughts:

Other than a few quirks the course is good. Most poison ivy has been removed but bring bug spray. plenty of parking and space to eat. near Restaurants and other amenities, a few minutes from the campus of Vincennes University and should be a hit with students in coming years.
