Course needs to be played instead of ignored 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 14, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

A nice example of a NW wooded course that demands some good technical shots to keep out of the underbrush. Signage in parking lot was good since you have to walk a bit to get to the course. Looks to have had recent work done that cleared up some of the problems noted in previous review.

Cons:

#6 teepad was still MIA, as previous reviewers have noted also, likely due to storm damage from the looks of recent ground work. A few holes in need of some clearing in places, but some problems likely have worsened from lack of play. Lack of a map on DGCR - had to take the chance on playing the course blind since I don't have Udisc (some blame on me obviously). The 3 open-field holes are a con to me because I'm not a chucker and really weren't anything but a distance challenge, with just a bit of cliffside-danger thrown in for two of them.

Other Thoughts:

I worried about this course based on previous reviews, and the lack of a map being posted here, but I took a chance on it because I was in Canby for another reason. So glad I did. It looks like course upkeep may be a problem at times, based on previous reviews, but other that #6's tee being lost(?) the course generally needed one major thing - it needs to be played more!. The nine wooded holes here could really use more play to take care of some of the overgrowth issues. It takes a long time for wooded courses to clear out naturally with use and this course looks like it just doesn't get used enough to maintain clearings in some of the spots. Sure, this course will never be on the same level as Milo or Timber, but with some more play and upkeep this could be much better in the future. Maybe someday this course could add alternate tees to make it play as an 18; there seems to be some very good possibilities out there. I plan on playing this course again next time I'm down that way and hope many others will have doing so in the meantime.

Pros:

Parking lot seems in a good neighborhood
Tee pads are short but very grippy slipping wasn't an issue. Signs pointing you to disc golf course
Tee signs on every hole as well as navigation signs pointing you to next hole. For only a 12 hole course has great signage. Baskets are in decent shape. Tight lines in the woods however there is lines there. Open field shots are boring but give you a chance to pull out some of your drivers.

Cons:

Walkout to hole 1 is .4 miles. From parking lot!! At least has sign saying that but dosen't make it fun by any means. Hole 6 has no tee pad but has tee sign and area you can tell you throw from. Some thick foliage on a couple of holes...
Holes 3,4,5 and 10-12 might want to use spotter. Most are short enough not major issue, and I was actually expecting worse. I could see it being pretty overgrown in summer though with a lot tighter lines, and some lost discs. The field holes are kind of boring, and more like filler holes but at least you can throw some practice type drives. I feel if they wanted they could make it a shorter 18 hole course, there is room to expand to 18.

Other Thoughts:

I was expecting it to be a worse course than I expirenced to be honest. It's not a destination course by any means, and there for sure is better in the area. That being said there's a lot worse places to play, and with a little more TLC cleanup, and expansion this could become a great place to play. As it sits now it's still not a bad place to come play, specially if you're not playing solo. Come check it out, and hopefully it gets a little more play. I feel best way to say it is not great but not horrible
