This course had a great mix of easy and tough holes. Elevation changes, trees, etc. The only thing missing was some sort of pond shot.

Lots of rocks to tear up your discs

Last I heard, the course got redesigned. So my review is on the old 18 layout that was pretty kick ass.

I got to play this course a few years back. It is a precise and technical course with fairways cut through the heavy pine forest next to NAU. I played it in the summer and it was cool and windy. Without a map it was still pretty easy to find our way around. Many cool changes in elevation make this course very different from Phoenix-area courses.

Beds of pine needles on the ground tend to kill your skip shots. Not much chance to roll.

I don't know what the parking situation is but if you are going to risk parking without some kind of permission or permit - I recommend going when the students are not in session.

This is a peaceful and quiet course. very nice.

The New NAU course is an extremely challenging course that winds it's way through the woods on campus. It's got a lot of variety, some nice open long holes, some very tough ones that go downhill through the woods in a narrow lane, A few that shoot way uphill almost out of site. There are no gimme holes on this course. You work for every shot.

Half of it's gone. I'm not a student at NAU so I'm not really in the loop, but from what I can gather they have the new course down to 9 holes and have placed six other baskets back on the old course sites. I'm not sure what they are going to be doing. Best bet is to email the guys at the Flagstaff discs golf club for an update.

Some other cons for this course is it gets crazy busy in the afternoon and there is a lot of litter. Also I'm not sure where you can park without an NAU pass. The cops were giving out tickets to people without passes so I just started riding my bike there.

I hope they don't close down this course for good. Or at least reopen the old NAU course. Cross your fingers.
