Other Thoughts:
when you pull in the parking lot one of the first and only things you see is a big blue porto john acting as a foreboding warning and monument of this courses quality.
you do however have a chance to sit at the nice picnic table just feet away and have a picnic, or putt at the practice basket and hope your disc doesn't land in a pile of dog crap since this park also doubles as a local dog walking area.
Hole 1 sets the premise for 1/3 of the whole course, it is a 390' straight huck to the basket with no trees, obstacles or danger whatsoever. creative.
hole 2 is where you really get technical. it is another dead straight shot but this time you are throwing straight up a hill. WOW! this adds another 1/3 of what to expect for the next 7 holes of this course.
and by hole 3 you encounter the last element of difficulty, another straight shot down the fairway avoiding all of that tricky tall grass to a basket in a small cove of trees! the difficulty just got cranked to 11 and you just saw the last element to the trifecta of genius course design that is oakwood community park.
if you are driving by on 94 or 16 i wouldn't waste your time unless you like throwing in a field, looking for discs in tall grass, and stepping in dog poo.
one and a half stars.
