Pros:

Great piece or topography, beautiful lake. The course is overgrown and the deep grass shows no paths that would indicate where to walk.The course has potential but would need a lot of TLC to bring it back. If everything was fixed, I would rate it a 3.50, it still would not be 4, it just doesn't stack up with true 4's I regularly play at Rollin Ridge (a 4.83) in Wisconsin and The Canyons (a 4.44) in Illinois, both are top rated course, for reference.

Cons:

This course was a major dissapointment. Trash, vandalism and graffiti everywhere! Missing signs or torn off sign laying in the weeds. Trash bags over filled and spilling over. Loose trash, mostly drink bottles cans and paper cups are all over every hole and tee. The people that have trashed this course give all Disc Golfers a bad name. Neglect doesn't begin to describe it. If I were in charge of this park, I would pull the pins and close it because of the disrespect and out rite abuse. I am disgusted and have since rated it a solid 1 (poor)
What ever happened to "don't mess with Texas"? Oink oink! Do not even bother playing this course!

Other Thoughts:

Contrary to what other think of this review, I played holes 1 thru 10 without trouble navigating. Hole 11 had no sign and is a blind hole, blind tee shot, with long grass. Even a perfect throw would land in long grass and probably never be found. I elected not to throw and walked it until I could see the basket. I played hole 12 and then got lost , then found the 17th tee, played it and 18, then found and played 14, 15 and 16. Never found 13 so played sixteen of the 18 holes. The course is well designed, that is not the problem, the problem is that it is overgrown and even perfect shots could result in a lost disc. I love difficult courses but this one is simply unfair, unkept and thus, unplayable.
