--You will not find a course in the Wichita area with a more beautiful setting. Huge old trees, the prettiest stretch of the Arkansas River in town, ponds, and rock formations all make this a very scenic course.
--Concrete tee pads and top notch baskets
--Multiple tees and multiple pin locations make this course a little different almost every time you play it. Playing from the short tees to short pins creates a lot of opportunity for ace runs and low scores. Play the long tees with long baskets and you will be doing really good to keep double and triple bogeys off your card.
--Quite a few holes where you can rip drives, but quite a few where you have to be very technical with your drive placement. Lots of low ceilings and out of bounds come into play making it very challenging.
--Somewhat protected from the brutal Kansas wind because of its location and tree cover.
--If all you have is a backhand, you better be able to throw a good anheiser shot. Same to be said if you only have a forehand. This course will make you shape shots both ways.

This is all to be taken with a grain of salt because it is a great course so this is next level stuff:
--No signage, which means no distances or directions to next tee pad. You have to print off a map if you want that information, and even then the map only includes distances to the original pin placements, which the baskets are not always in. First timers will probably struggle getting around.
--It seems like there have been several years gone by without doing a lot of tree trimming along shot paths. What used to be windows have shrunk or disappeared.
--Course is super busy, and some people like to play in groups of 6 or more. It can take over three hours to play a round.
--With the river and two ponds coming into play on about half of the holes, losing a disc is a real possibility.
--Active roads and bike paths run pretty close to hole layouts, so dealing with cars, joggers, bikers, etc is common. It is also a favorite place for people to take family photos, especially around hole 18 basket. Most of them don't even understand that they are obstructing a golf course, and certainly don't know how bad they could be injured with a disc thrown 300 feet. In my opinion the city should put up signs that prevent photo shoots in certain popular areas, or at least warn of the possible dangers.

In my opinion this is the best course in the Wichita area. It has a great layout with use of all different types of hazards, and forces you to play all different types of shots. The only draw backs are generally things that fall on the restrictions set forth by the city, which is what I believe holds this course back from getting to the level of a national championship caliber course. If you are a first time visitor: print out a map that is available online, be ready to share the park with non-disc golfers, be prepared to play a round that takes a little longer than normal, and enjoy the best that Wichita has to offer.

This is a almost perfect course. the first 5 holes play so that if you only want to practice for 30 minutes you can make a few rounds around the first 5 holes and be able to thrown almost every shot that you will throw.

It's hard to think of any. If I had to be very picky then I would say that there aren't any hole descriptions at every hole. They could also put hole lengths on the tee pads.

There is a great club that plays here every Wednesday at 6PM. This is a very active group and just check the air capital disk golf club website for all the info.

This course includes a mix of wooded and open holes. A mix of trees near the tee and near the baskets make each hole a unique challenge. Both forehand and backhand players will find holes which cater to their strengths and pronounce their weaknesses. A number of water shots also challenge your ability to make accurate, long range throws.

The first few holes' fairways seem to run together, and I would imagine that the course could get dangerous as it becomes crowded. As a first-time player on the course, I had to find people to follow to learn my way around. This could be easily remedied, however, with improved signage, or your bringing along a course map. There are several holes in the middle of the round that become very easy to get into the river for a RHBH thrower. A challenge, but a seemingly unnecessary stretch of holes that feel the same.

A fantastic course to play. Definitely a must if you are in the area. The multitude of tees presents a challenge for all skill levels, and the stunning visuals around the course provide a very enjoyable round of golf.

- Tough to get the hang of at first
- The 18th hole is brutal on many newcomers
- A few holes on the back 9 can get flooded after a heavy rain

This course is very fun to play. It has a bit of everything, and it keeps things interesting. There are two tees which provide varying challenges. The course is built into a forest for the main part of the front 9 which provides unique challenges. Dog-legs and tunnel-shots are very common requiring good precision and accuracy. The course runs along the river, which has its ups and downs.

There are only two major water hazards, but the last one (Hole 18) is a very difficult shot for the inexperienced. The back 9 is far less complicated than the front 9 and becomes a distance contest, though a few of the holes provide unique challenges that test accuracy as well as power. The only terrain Oak is lacking in is hills. No uphill or downhill shots provide for a flat experience.

Overall Oak is a very well put together course that is very unique in its hole setups. You'll see a bit of everything except hills.
