Typical City course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 28, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

An 18 hole course in town, fairly open but makes good use of what trees there are. Water does come in to play on a few holes.

Cons:

Some of holes are pretty close together and some of the baskets are ridiculously close to the water. I love a challenge but overshooting a basket by less than 10 feet shouldn't make you lose a disc.

Other Thoughts:

My least favorite of the 4 courses I played in South Dakota.

Nice course to play 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 3, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

Multiple pin placements on most holes. Alternate tees on some holes.

Small creek winds through the course.

Good info on tee signs. Signs and baskets in good shape.

Nice big park with no other park activities around disc golf course.

Cons:

Completely flat terrain.

In some places the course is wide open with multiple baskets in view making it difficult to know where to throw. I actually played towards a visible basket on one hole but should have played to another basket hidden behind some bushes.

Other Thoughts:

The day I played most pins were in the easiest positions and I played the tees with the signs, since it was my first time there, and the course offered very little challenge (I shot a 42). I'm sure the alternate pin locations and tees would make this a more challenging course. The few large trees that were in the middle of the park were used well but being in the Black Hills area and having absolutely no elevation changes was disappointing. The small creek was utilized on several holes with baskets placed near the bank. Hole #2 was very nice.

The locals were very friendly and helpful. I would return here to play again if ever in the area.
