Pros:
There were many good holes and a couple of great ones. The course has a great start on holes 1-3. The trees, creek and elevation combine for a challenging beginning. I especially liked hole 2. You tee from the right side of the creek that is lined with large trees. The basket is across the creek/trees to your left. You have 3 choices for your tee shot: a big spike hyzer over the trees (if you have the power), blast through the trees, or place a mid-range (175-200') in a gap to set up your approach shot. The basket is cleverly placed on a plateau above the creek that makes for a tricky 2nd shot. I love shots like this that give me a mental challenge.
At least half of the holes have some elevation, including several ace runs. #17 confronts you with one of the hardest tee shots I have ever taken. There is a tree with 5 small trunks about 10-15' directly in front of the pad. The space between the trunks is so tight that a straight drive is highly risky. The best option is probably a roller to either side of the tree trunks. The hole is also uphill, further complicating the tee shot (a low shot is not an option here). I got lucky and parked a left-handed overhand roller 5' from the basket.
Many baskets were guarded by trees and/or overhanging branches which force you to make precise approach shots, which is another feature that I love in a course. The small creek that runs through most of the course creates a fun OB hazard. I played in July and the creek was dry, but it probably runs pretty high in the spring.
Every tee has a large concrete pad with the hole number carved in the metal border. All baskets have "Next Tee" signs. Two holes use wooden bridges over the creek as their tee pad; this is a unique feature that I have never seen before.
Cons:
As the Valkyrie Kid mentioned in his review, this course has some "warts." My biggest negative was the high number of holes that crossed through the baseball fields and picnic areas. I played on a pleasant summer afternoon and had to skip three holes because of other park users. During baseball and picnic season, this could be a big problem. Several holes were just straight shots across open grass with no real obstacles. I actually skipped a couple of these because I was pressed for time and needed to get back on the road.
Grangeville is prone to windy weather, so you might want to check the forecast and pack your wind discs before you plan a trip to play here. However, it was very nice the day I played.
Other Thoughts:
Overall, this is a good course and a great recreational boost to the area. Some of the holes are near "Signature" level while others are rather dull. I make the trip through Grangeville 3 times a year and I am definitely planning to schedule a rest and recreation break here from now on. Askers Foods does have an impressive discs inventory for a small Idaho farm town. I stopped there for snacks last year and was shocked to see the racks of discs right by the front door. I had to ask a clerk about this and she told me about the course. If you're passing through on HW 95, make plans for a rest stop here.
