Slightly above average park course 2+ years

Pros:
+ I view the Monroe disc golf course as a slightly above average park course. I feel like the design makes the most of the available land, which unfortunately is not a super exciting plot of land for disc golf. There is a creek that flows through the course, a couple trees that are utilitized well, and minor elevation change that adds to the challenge.
+ It's apparent that the city treasures this park, as it's clean and well developed. There are playgrounds and a theater and baseball fields and everything you'd want from a community park.
+ Concrete tees, a big course map at #1's tee, and baskets that are in reasonable condition.
+ A very fair course. The better golfer will win here. There are very few "luck" shots and there's a small mix of distances and angles, though not overwhelmingly so.

Cons:
- There's quite a walk between holes and course flow is not always ideal. While some holes are just fine the way they are, I feel like a redesign here could lift this course from a 3.0 to a solid 3.5. There is a lot of monotony in the tee shots, in my mind.
- It seemed like the tee signs need to be updated. Some of them are blatantly wrong on distances. Better graphics would go a long way here.

Other Thoughts:
All in all, this is a pretty fun one to bag. As I've mentioned in the pros, I think the best way to describe it is as a 'somewhat above average park course'. That said, given that there aren't many 18 holers in the area, it's great that the Monroe community invested in a course.
It's definitely not a destination course, but it fulfills the need for 18 holes when the Madison area courses are mostly pulled for winter.

Pros:
-Decent elevation changes and pin placements.
-Baskets are crisp and new since the course is not that old.
-Grounds are well taken care of, very few places where you can realistically loose a disc!

Cons:
-Dirt tee pads and no distances or maps found on the tee posts.
-Hole 5 was a signature left handed shot where a right handed thrower would need a sidearm, turnover or roller shot to regularly reach the basket. Trees have been removed on the right side which opens up a basic hyzer route and takes away the difficulty.

Other Thoughts:
Back 9 will most likely be put in the ground early next year and we are pushing for proper tee signs with footage available.
