Fun, if you like wide-open ace runs 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 11, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course has brand-new Innova Discatchers and cement tee pads. Many tees have bagholders and benches. There are plenty of trashcans on the course.

There is almost no schule and virtually no chance of losing a disc.

The layout provides a good opportunity for intermediate-level players to work on their distance and roller shots.

Cons:

It is true that, as other reviewers have mentioned, the piece of land is not great for a disc golf course. It is huge, flat, and doesn't have a lot of trees to design around. Having said that, the design has many significant flaws.

Many of the tees are too close to the preceding basket. There are many opportunities to throw a decent shot and end up on the next tee or another hole's tee. There are many opportunities for shots to end up in the adjacent hole's fairway. There is PLENTY of room on this property for an 18 hole disc golf course with adequate safety buffer between holes.

The cement tee pads are small (4X8). If there were only 18 holes instead of 25, the pads could have been 5X10 for just about the same amount of money.

This is a huge piece of property, but there's only one true multi-shot hole, #25 and that's 870 ft. wide-open across the field to a basket that can't be seen from the tee.

Many of the holes are non-descript with a tee pointing into an open field with multiple baskets visible. Many of the holes don't have tee signs yet and it's quite possible to throw at the wrong basket.

If there's ever a full course here for a tournament or otherwise, it will be extremely dangerous and annoying with all the overlapping holes.

Other Thoughts:

For travelers: skip this course and play Fore Palms in Jacksonville and/or Tuscawilla in Daytona Beach instead.

Bring your bugspray.

Don't be a dirty discer, leave the course cleaner than the way you found it.
