Lindsey Park's Blue course is the antithesis of its Gold 18: whereas the latter takes you to task with one tight wooded shot after the next, the former playfully mixes it up, throwing a diversity of shots, terrain, and obstacles at you. The array of variety goes well beyond that of your standard park course, and keeps you on your toes and reaching into your bag. There are a few heavily wooded holes on the front 9, a big downhill bomb that weaves around pines (13), a large uphill anny playing along a treacherous slope (12), some challenging mandos (including 9's fun tunnel shot between two trees), and some opportunities to really open up (17 weaves downhill and around some large trees at over 900' from the longs!). The variety gives you a lot to like, and engages your game without being overly challenging to the casual player. I really enjoyed how Lindsey Blue continually mixes it up. The back 9, which makes good use of a sizable hill, has some especially nice holes (12, 13, 17).

There's definitely more of a park course feel here than on the wooded Lindsey Gold, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It provides a nice reprieve to Gold's brutal challenges. The relative openness will appeal to casual players, while the big hill, long distances, and occasional technicality will keep more advanced players interested. Lindsey Blue caters to a wide range of golfers, especially with its two sets of tees. Every player will find something they like. Throw in two other 18s on site and Lindsey Park makes for a home course that many golfers would envy.

Concrete tees are well made and level. Park seems well groomed. Parking is plentiful, bathrooms are accessible and clean, and water fountains are on hand. Course layout reduces conflict with non-disc golfers, save for occasionally running along the road.

While present in fits and starts, Lindsey Blue's technical challenge is ultimately limited: though there are the occasional wooded holes, tight windows, and threatening elevation, the course is for the most part open enough to allow you to recover from your mistakes fairly easily. The front half in particular has some dull stretches with minimal obstacles that could have you throwing on automatic. This openness is likely intentional, a foil to Lindsey Gold as mentioned above, but it still caps Lindsey Blue's ceiling. Were the course to integrate some more of the challenging wooded holes from Gold course with the high points from Lindsey Blue, it'd have the makings of a great 18. As it stands, Blue offers a bit more of a reprieve from Gold's woods and challenges than I'd like, but it does make for an effective complement. There are still a lot of worthwhile shots here; they just often register more as fun than challenging or memorable (not completely a bad thing by any means). The city park feel helps to further curb the wow factor.

Navigation can get a bit dodgy in places; course flow can be hard to follow. The course seems to have undergone numerous redesigns; there are even decaying remnants of past tee signs no longer in use. While we found our way around, the proximity and openness of many baskets on the front 9 had us guessing and often playing out of order. The map on DGCR seems to be out of date (not that we were smart enough to try and use it anyway), as the long hole labeled 1 on there was 17 when I visited. If memory serves me correctly and I'm reading it right, the holes may have just been renumbered. It's not bad enough to be a deterrent; just brace yourself for moments of confusion. The course seems well-trafficked enough that you can always ask a local.

I came away from my visit to Lindsey feeling like it wasn't quite the set of destination courses I'd hoped to find. However, it makes for an enjoyable stop on your way to one of Texas' more significant gems, with Selah an hour and a half to the north and Shawshank a couple hours south. The three destinations combine for one heck of a road trip; take it from me!

The course starts off a bit slowly, with the front 9 playing more pedestrian and being harder to navigation. Stick it out; things pick up on the back 9. The course definitely ends on a high note.

Bathrooms, water, and parking are somewhat accessible after 9, but the back 9 play an inconvenient distance away from them. Just keep that in mind if you're playing in the heat that you need to keep adequate refreshments on hand. Those hills'll get you in the Texas sun.

Lindsey Park offers three disc golf courses that are conveniently located near each other. Lindsey - Blue is right in the middle of the three courses in terms of difficulty and is probably the most enjoyable for the average disc golfer to play with its extensive variety and lack of insanely tough holes.

The park has the necessary amenities including a large parking area, bathrooms, and water fountains. The course also features very large concrete tee pads and new(er) tees signs.

The strength of the Blue course is found in its wide variety of the types of holes and shots offered, and it actually has much better variety than the Gold course. I would probably play this course more often with the amount of variety that it has. There is a pretty even spread of open, moderately wooded, and very tight holes. It has holes that challenge you to throw open bombs (1, 2, 10, 15, 16, 18), play through patches of trees (5, 6, 9, 11-14, 17) and hit some very tight lanes in the woods (3, 4, 7, 8). Muliple tees and pin positions, as well as a wide spectrum in lengths, also add to the variety.

My favorite part of the course was holes 11-17, which are found in a separate section of the park. The holes aren't far away from the rest of the course, but this section was strikingly different with many more trees that allowed for more lane choices and some pretty massive elevation changes. I was pleasantly surprised to see such extreme elevation on 12-14, as well as the long downhill bomb on 17. My hats off to the course designers for doing a great job of using the elevation to make interesting holes. I also enjoyed the use of the creek on some of the tight woods holes and the tight mando on 9 to add some risk/reward play.

-Navigation isn't the best, as the course winds back, forth, and around different parts of the park. The most confusing section to navigate is the front 9 which plays in a relatively open field and through the nearby woods. I didn't see any signs pointing you in the right direction and this part of the course does not flow well at all. At any given time in the field, you can see multiple tee signs, pads, and baskets.
-To add on to the confusion, some of the baskets for this course are Mach 3 and some are DISCatcher. Having two other courses nearby also confused us because the Red course had holes that played very close to the front half of the Blue course. There were also some old tee signs still standing that had different hole numbers on them.
-Some of the open holes were a little too bland. Luckily, they were well spread throughout the course to avoid feeling too repetitive.

The pictures aren't completely accurate on the site. Most - if not all - of the holes are still in the course, but a bunch of them have been renumbered.

Play the Gold course if you want to stay in the woods for most of the round and be severely challenged. Play this course if you want a more laid-back round that offers plenty of varied shots and more room for error, but still challenges you on multiple holes. Better yet, play all three courses on site! Lindsey Park is great in that it offers you a full day of golf, or allows you to choose between courses with distinctly different levels in difficulty in you only have time for one round.

My favorite holes:
3-Tight S-curve in the woods with some elevation in play
5-Downhill right to left shot from the open into the woods
6-Long, downhill shot with two lines to play through
13-Long extreme uphill left to right shot with the basket on a steep slope. The most intimidating hole on the course
14-Steep downhill bomb
17-Very long downhill shot that plays around many trees

Great course to pratice your accurate Big D shots...there are only a handful of holes where someone with a short arm (<300) can have a shot a birdie. Long tee boxes make it even more of a crusher course.

LOTS of elevation through one stretch of holes...all of which are well over 300', making them pretty challenging.

Decent mix of open/tight holes...though mostly long and open. A small handful of holes that are easily birdied to keep your confidence from being completely shot

One very fun/memorable hole...<200' downhill to a slightly elevated basket with dense woods behind. Definitely within putter distance, and a really fun ace run! Another is the "blue monster" (or so I've heard it called)...950'+ downhill with many large trees and an OB fence on the right side.

Dual tee boxes that add considerable length. Nice concrete tees on all, cool stone markers on most (if not all...can't recall exactly).

Course flow...plan on getting a little lost your first time through, unless you can find a local to show you around. The 2 courses in this park cross over and play next to each other in a few spots, so you have to really pay attention to what hole you're playing. Could use some better signage.

Each tee box has both blue and red text spray-painted on it...which makes the course flow even more confusing.

There are 2 wooded holes that are just ridiculously tight...to the point that they're "poke-n-hope" type shots, even for upper level players! In my opinion, these need to be opened up a bit to make them even remotely fair or playable for lower divisions.

Because of the length and mostly open landscape, this course favors the big arms and doesn't give finesse players much of a chance to catch up.

Sticker burrs ALL OVER the place...watch your knees and bag-straps!

Just like the Red course, if the blue had better signage (showing overview of the current hole and the direction to the next) and some maps, it would gain a few points in my eyes. Both courses at Lindsey have great potential, but some glaring "Cons" keep them from being great.
