Great for beginners 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 6, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is clearly designed for beginners and it excels at that. The distances are all around 100 feet. With that being said it's a really nice little course. For course baggers like myself this is a great place to just take a putter and check off a course. There are concrete tees on every hole. Plenty big enough for the distances here. All in great condition as well. The pins are DISCatchers that also are all in fantastic shape. The first 4 holes and hole 9 are all out in the open section of the park with 5 through 8 tucked back into the little wooded area.

Cons:

This course is for newer players and kids so take it for what it is. It's short but that's by design. It's easy by design. There's really not any cons that I can think of.

Other Thoughts:

This is nothing to go any ways out of your way to play. Probably not even worth it even if close by unless as a warm up or to check it off your list. This course is amazing at what it is intended for though. I gave it a 2.5 to reflect how it compares to all the courses I've played and for how people use this site. Not to disrespect what is here which is a fantastic beginner course.

Grow the sport 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Aug 19, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Great for kids
Great for beginners
Grow the sport
Short technical shots
Clean and well maintained

Cons:

short distances but this course does exactly what it is designed to do. Obviously this course is designed for children so in that respects this course has no cons.

Other Thoughts:

This is a nice little course in a nice little park. I like how the playgrounds are in the woods. A good place to bring your kid and teach them how to throw. Great kind of park to grow the sport.

Neat little pitch and putt 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Aug 3, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

-Very clean park. Looks well maintained. (Update: Parks department started to let this go this past summer. Watch the tall grass and bushes growing into #4, and the ground wasps got real bad on #6. Spit and polish means more than usual to me on such an intimate, purpose driven course. Gonna take half a disc for that )
-Trees in wooded area aren't very dense, but dense enough to get the point across.
-Bathrooms and water fountains are nearby, new and clean.
-Shelter on site with grills
-Every hole is aceable, but very few 'gimmes'. Each provides a touch of tricky elements.

Cons:

-Trees need maturing, but that will come in time.
-Short holes, leaves you wanting to rip a drive, but there's no where to do it.
-Some tees are within shanking distance of the previous basket. Watch your back!
-Played twice in under 40 minutes. No alternate tees to spice things up.

Other Thoughts:

Good place to practice approach shots and putter drives. Every hole is easily reached with a putter, leave the mids on up in the car.
Good course for the intent. While the holes are short, each provides a touch of tricky, well except 9.
The course manages to be short and entry level without feeling like a mini-golf course. No windmill gimmicks or shenanigans to be found. Neat little place to pitch and putt.

Roc, Putter, Scissors

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jun 24, 2022 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

A course for KIDDIES...and Mom & Dad starting to play the sport. Great layout in a kiddie park. No hole over 200' giving true new players a taste of disc golf and WANTING more.
Round 9 Putting game! that gets longer & tougher. 2 putts behind trees with a small incline.
Can very well be a "Warm-up" course played by the Adv./Pro player working on "Go for it" putts or mid-range shots before playing 1 of the other 3 near by 18 hole courses.
Perfect course for a Glow/1 Disc tourney.
Large concrete tees, very nice signage. Large paved parking lot. Clean bathrooms, outdoor shower, BBQ grills, Shelters, 3 Jungle Gyms & nature trails in the woods.
The Hamilton Disc Golf Union (TheHDGU.com) will be having the Annual Discraft Ace Race Fund Raising Event played here!

Cons:

Flat, No water. But they are not needed, with near by Dillon & Northview.
No Alt. pin locations-yet!?

Other Thoughts:

Pickleball courts added. And sadly took the leftside of hole #1. For players who need more distance, here's a Safari layout; warm-up on the round 9 putting game...#1 Tee to #2 DISCatcher, #3 Tee to #4 DISCatcher, #5 Tee to #6 DISCatcher, #7 Tee to (90° dogleg) #8 DISCatcher, #9 Tee as designed OR to #2 DISCatcher.
