Nice use of area with impacting the natural areas surround course. Enjoyed the workout from the elevation changes. Other than hole #1, challenges accuracy of beginners.

Potential for a lot of mosquitos and ticks with the tall grasses and water in the open areas. Tee pads were gravel instead of concrete.

SImple easy course before or after workout in complex or hike.

(1.841 Rating) A prairie style short niner with an excellent finish.
- ACEABILITY - There are some fun ace runs here if the course isn't overgrown. Six tee shots are sub 250 feet.
- TEES - One of biggest cons I read on many of the previous reviews, were the pitted gravel tees. Six of the nine tees are now concrete. They are awesome. 5 feet by 12 feet and tapering to 7 feet wide in back. This must have occurred in the last couple of years as the last review that mentions gravel is from 2015.
- ELEVATION - Several holes have 20 to 35 feet of elevation change in them. Hole (9) to finish the course off has the most and it's a wonderful way to punctuate a layout.
- NAVIGATION - Some great aspects, but some flaws. Large course map at tee (1). There are also large simplistic tee signs that unfortunately just note the hole number and length. Mostly Intuitive paths between baskets and next tees. The biggest flaw on my play was the fact that the overgrowth had engulfed three tee signs. I didn't even find the tee sign on (2).
- QUICK PLAY - This should be a quick play from late October till May if the baskets are left out. It will likely take longer during the summer due to the info noted above under Navigation.
- FREE - A lot of courses in the Milwaukee area are pay to play. This one is not.

Summer maintenance issues.
- SUMMER OVERGROWTH - Brutal rough was everywhere on my play in mid-summer. I would recommend checking course conditions before throwing here from June through September. I dealt with head to waist tall prairie grasses on eight holes. A single 8-foot wide mower path defined the fairways on holes (4), (7) and (8). Hole (3) wasn't mowed at all. I spent a lot of time searching for discs and even lost one on (2) as the trees and overgrowth in front of the tee obscured where my disc landed off-fairway. If the conditions were always like this, I'd score the course a 1.0. It was really bad. From prior experience, I know courses like this are so much more enjoyable when the leaves have fallen till when the tree buds start back. So, I cut the course some slack with my score.
- LACK OF CHALLENGE - likely varies quite a bit season to season. Rec players should have no problem breaking par during the fall and spring when the wind is light. The challenge will be greatly amped up during the summer as players like myself will find themselves opting to throw 100-foot jump putts to stay in the fairway instead of risk spending a lot extra time to find a disc.
- LOOSE DISC OPPS - Extremely high during the summer. I would assume locals head over to Abendschein and Root River during this time frame rather than risk losing plastic here. There is also water short and left on (2), although experienced players should be able to easily avoid it.
- DISCONTINUITY - Hole (9) doesn't loop back to (1) and it's about a 500 foot walk. In addition, the parking lot is another 300 feet after that.
- CHARACTER - With the exception of phenomenal tee pads on six holes, the rest the basics and extras are sub-par. Baskets are adequate Chainstars, tee signs are simple and the other three tees are pitted gravel. Only one bench on (9), almost no tee shading or wind blocking. No multi-tees or alternate basket placements.
- UNIQUENESS - Perhaps average for a nine holer but overall below average. Almost all short prairie shots with undulating terrain.
- BEGINNER FRIENDLY - Despite the shorter distances, not a good beginners course, especially in the summer. They would be searching after almost every throw unless they threw only low 40-foot chip shots. That approach would be horrible for personal development. I would suggest nearby Abendschein as a much better learning course.

A player's experience here could vary wildly depending on the season. I personally got conditions making for a bad experience. I reached out to DGCR reviewer wolfhaley to check about the maintenance of the course over time as this was his original home course. He noted that the conditions over the summer use to be much better. Regardless, outside the summer months, the course is likely in much better shape. I would recommend checking out the course then.
- NATURAL BEAUTY - Average course beauty when comparing it to my other 407 played courses as of this review. I personally like the graceful look of prairie defined fairways, but that play occurred too many times giving the course a bit of monotonous feel.

- Nice catching baskets
- A really good use of the elevation. Its a pretty short course but the elevation that it has is used very nicely.
- The flow from hole to hole is pretty seemless.
- There is water on the course and a few of the holes that are by it take advantage of it. Easily some fun risk reward shots.
- Very short course with a lot of ace runs so if you are into that then this is your course.

- Loose gravel teepads are pretty terrible. Not much you can do but throw a stand still from them because of how loose they are.
- Not too many places to open up your arm and throw but for the land given it makes use of the land well.
- The course might be a bit tough to get too. The parking lot for the complex is pretty big and if you dont know where the course starts then finding it might take you a bit
- Threre are some soccer fields next to some of the holes. There have been a few times where kids have been playing on the course to a point where you cannot play certain holes because they are unaware that you are playing and dont care to move. I can also see some bad shots going really bad here and hitting some of the people just spectating soccer.
- The rough. This course has some very unkept and unforgiving rough. I dont think they ever cut it so if you are not in the fairway then your disc is most likely gone forever.

Overall. yes its another course to play but its just not my style. If you are in the area I would suggest driving to another course to play, but it is still worth playing since there are a few fun holes.

9 hole course at the Milwaukee County Sports Complex.

Natural tee pads with crushed gravel, but they were all relatively long and level, and very easy to play off. We were there after some rain the night before, and none of them were in bad shape.

Good use of elevation. Holes play along, up, and down some rolling hills in the park. Some tricky pin placement can lead to rollaways, but nothing too severe.

Baskets were all solid and in good repair, and caught well.

Navigation was pretty simple, with tee pads relatively close to all pins. Tee signs with distance and intended route.

It's pretty short. Most of the holes are 200' or under (don't let hole 2's sign fool you...it's more 200' than 354'...somebody must have though they were pretty funny on that one).

Not a lot in the way of obstacles, save for some trees on hole 3 and 7. Every other hole is pretty open.

Aces runs abound here, some with a bit of risk. If you worked/lived close, this is the kind of place you could easily spin a round (or two) during a lunch break. Nice place for beginners as well, with hole 2's pond being the only real danger on the course.

The rest of the park has walking/biking trails, soccer fields, baseball diamonds, etc. We saw a rugby match forming when we left. I can't imagine there's ever much traffic on the course itself, which is nice.

There are far worse ways to burn a half hour...stop by and check it out!

It is a fun short course. Great for putting practice since your distance drivers won't get a workout here. The elevation changes near the holes led me to shoot uphill on some holes and downhill on others with elevation between me and the pin varying by several feet in some places.

Elavation changes are the only real obstacle on this course. A few trees in play on a few holes but for the most part they are not a factor.

There is good signage but i don't think it is terribly accurate. Hole 2 has a sign that says it is 354 ft. I hammered my Banshee with ease and I can't get more than 250 to 300 ft out of that if I throw my arm out. That said the signs do accurately show the layout, even if the distance is off.

I would say this is a fantastic course for beginners to learn on since it can teach them to throw straight and they don't need much distance.

This course is close to my apartment and I will definitely play it again. My wife would proabably like this course a lot and playing it will probably help her game a lot.

I would like to see some more space used, my friend and I noticed two spots where there could be some nice holes added and if they put holes that went completely around the water feature near hole 2 that could make it a great course.

As it stands, this course is certainly worth playing if you are nearby but there is a lot of potential for improvement.

- Course is set in a hilly portion of a park with some gnarly rough. A bike path winds around some of the holes, so there might be some waiting needed here and there. Not too bad though.
- Pretty good hole variety here, mostly due to the large hill that this plays on and around. There are some steep upshots, including one with a sloping green and a large mound in the way of a RHBH hyzer. A steep downhill shot to end the round, and a blind dowhnill anny on #7, a good mix of more or less open elevation changes.
- Other notable holes include a blind shot on #2, which can be a safe hyzer or an over-the-water straight shot. Really tricky since the tee sign says 354', don't trust it!! I threw my disc and must have sailed waaaaaay past it, it is definitely not 354'. Check it out before throwing! #6 is tricky, too, a short little downhill with some extremely nasty rough to swallow errant shots.
- Great signage (minus #2's hole length), and good baskets. Tee pads were soft gravel that gave a lot, but were serviceable.

- Biggest con here is the short length of the course. No holes over 300' (again, don't believe #2), and many play very very short. The uphill shots need a little mustard, but it's still a pitch-n-putt course throughout. Many holes are very brainless, too, more practice than actual discing.

- For a little 9-holer, this one provides some cool shots and some decent challenge in spots. Fun downhill elevation changes, and some rough uphill changes that can be tough. A few tricky holes due to blind baskets or punishing rough; not too shabby at all. A good place to learn the ins and outs of the games, though there are very few obstacles to contend with.
