Pros:
The best thing I can say about this course is that, for only having three holes, at least each of the three holes is actually pretty fun. While I'll agree with The Valkyrie Kid that having the first hole on what is essentially a beginner course, ostensibly tailored to introduce weekend campers to disc golf, be a completely blind shot to a pretty protected hole is rather silly, at the same time, it is a pretty darn fun hole. Hole two is a narrow uphill tunnel shot, about 110 feet but plays a bit longer. And hole three is my favorite, offering new players a fun brain teaser of a dog leg right, where you can choose to try and thread the narrow but defined fairway as it bends around a sharp bend, or test your luck through the trees and throw straight at the pin. So, despite some of the shortcomings outlined in the "cons" section, having three well designed and fun holes is pretty nice. I know a fair number of nine hole courses that can't say they have the same.
The tee pads are well-made, much like all of the tee pads at the Stub Stewart property.
Unfortunately, this little course-let is far enough off the main road of the park, and away from the area where the excellent 9 and 18 hole courses are located, that it makes it a bit inconvenient for the normal crowd of players. At the same time, since the purpose of this course seems to be to serve the large campgrounds located in the lower park of the park, its secluded location can be a plus. Stub Stewart is quickly becoming a disc golf destination, especially with another top-notch 18 hole course nearby in Buxton. I can imagine that playing this little course late in the evening while camping, after a long day of golf while sipping on a beer, would be a gas. I could easily imagine players playing some of the holes backwards or "safari" in some formation.
Cons:
Obviously, with only three holes, it's hard to really call Stub-PP a proper "course" in a sense. All three holes are quite easy, and don't offer too much challenge.
Honestly, the biggest complaint I have is that the course is pretty hard to find, even for campers staying a mere few hundred feet from the course. There is no signage in the campground area to suggest that this course exists. Even following the directions to go to the course, it's really hard to spot. From the parking lot you have to trek toward the little area of benches set up in a little half-moon formation, then follow the gravel path up until you see a little dirt path heading into a stand of trees, right before you enter the trees there's a tiny sign (like 4 inches by 4 inches) on a post that has a disc golf basket symbol and tells park-goers that they're entering a disc golf area. Besides the spartan tee signs consisting of just a number next to the corresponding pad, there is nothing to show a curious camper what the goal of this game is, or where to find more information. On most courses, I wouldn't really begrudge this, but at the end of the day, the main objective this course should really be forwarding is introducing local campers to disc golf, and without any signage ushering them in, it doesn't seem to really serve this purpose.
Other Thoughts:
Stub-PP is a fun little three hole "course-let" that you can whip through in under 10 minutes. For locals who come out to Stub to play the tremendous 18 and 9 hole courses on the property, it's definitely worth checking this little course out at least once just for kicks. With the new (stunning) 9 hole "Lil' Stub" course right next the 18 hole course now in place, this 3 hole course isn't really worth playing regularly even as a warm up, especially given that driving to the camp area, parking and walking to the course collectively take more time than it would likely take to finish a "round." That said, I do think that having this little 3-hole course does make camping at Stub Stewart more attractive to me, and I hope that curious camp-goers will stumble upon this cute course and inquire further into the world of disc golf.
