Converted ball golf course makes for an interesting disc golf course

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 25, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

Looks like it used to be perhaps a par-3 9-hole ball golf course with a driving range, so there are fairways that are very wide on some holes. Although I'm not sure that the layout takes full advantage of that. It can get a little busy but not terribly. Probably earlier in the day is when you can have the whole course to yourself. Every hole has two pins and two pads (most of the time). I think the parkland holes and those fully open on one side are the best: nos. 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17.

Cons:

There's some conflict with nos. 3 and 14, so make sure you have the map on hand (Udisc or course map printout). The track does not naturally flow so well. The no. 15 T is a bit unfair as it is quite blocked to get out and up. On the open fairways that are part of the ball golf course, it can get pretty windy. The tee area of no. 13 can get really wet and boggy (unplayable).

Other Thoughts:

When you come to the park, you are coming to an annex building versus the main portion of the park. The annex building looks like an assembly room type of place. Parking there is okay, but leaving and entering can be a little dicey with fast traffic coming up and down the street. If you park in the main portion of the park, I believe the closest hole is no. 11.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 10, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Very well maintained
2 tees and 2 baskets on every hole
Multiple lines on majority of holes.

Cons:

Very crowded at times you wouldn't even expect.
Nothing that really blows you out of the water about this course.
Kind of repetitive.

Other Thoughts:

This is a course I grew up playing and was the closest course to me for the longest time. It is fun and every hole gives you a shot at birdie. The funnest layouts for me are gold to silver and silver to gold. To me it's fun but nothing special.

Fun for the beginner/intermediate player! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 13, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Fun, nice rolling hills, easy enough to know what shot you should probably throw, and the two par 4's are real! Good locals out there, fun to get in a quick round.

Cons:

Take a picture of the sign up front, or you will wonder how to get to hole 3...and others.

Oregon Park 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 25, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nice variety of holes, fun and varied terrain, and a beginner friendly pad and basket (silver) and more advanced pad and basket (gold). You don't get unduly punished if your throw is not perfect most of the time. There are some open holes for you to bomb it and some more technical holes where trees must be accounted for.

There are garbage cans and benches at most of the pads and the disc golf community appears to actually use the trash cans. The maintenance of the course is very good. It's mowed on the open holes and the tighter holes are well picked up. There are maps at every concrete pad.

The scenery is very nice. Rolling hills and lots of beautiful trees.

The golfers at the course are friendly and courteous.

Cons:

The navigation of the course is poor. A first timer who is not playing with someone who knows the course will get lost. The maps at the tee pads will have an arrow pointing from the basket indicating where the next pad is located but this is not helpful on several as the course is a bit jumbled up. You should take a picture of the course map at the kiosk near pad one before playing.

Other Thoughts:

Tee pad one is not to be found in the main entrance to Oregon Park. There is another parking lot down the road from the main entrance to the park, maybe a tenth of a mile away, where you want to park to start at pad one.

Nice course but get ready to hunt for the Tees 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 16, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

great course that will make you utilize every kind of shot you can think of ....

Cons:

signage and course flow is boarder line horrible. spent 20 minutes looking for hole 1 and another 10 looking for hole14 gold tee which was about 100 feet back in the woods.

Other Thoughts:

great course.. but it could really go for some new signs and arrows to guide visitors. love the fact that you can play silver and gold tees, but I ended up playing the gold Tees only strictly because they were the only ones that had concrete pads...

Good for locals, bad for visitors 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 6, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Variety. This course covers most of the shots you can think of. Uphill, downhill, dogleg and left, short, long, it does it all. Whatever kind of hole you like, you will find one for you!
-Challenge. This course is difficult but rewards staying on the fairways. There are a couple longer holes (I believe 3-7, all marked as par 4) but you still have to hit your gaps or you will struggle.
-Distance. I think this has a good variety of distance. I kind of wish all the par 4's weren't lumped together but that's preference.
-Multiple Difficulties. There are four different ways to play this course. Really helpful for different skill level players.
-Baskets/Tees. All of the baskets and tees seemed to be in great condition, however the gold baskets (pro) are clearly better than the amateur baskets.

Cons:

-Layout. If you are traveling through and you are only going to play this course once, don't play it. The layout is extremely frustrating and there are many opportunities to get hit by an errant disc. Some of the fairways play through each other and on one hole I could see four different baskets at once. Some of the locals also played the alternate tees/baskets even when I was on that hole. Luckily, I turned around in time to dodge the disc flying at my head, which came from a group of 4 trying to play through me by myself.
-Navigation. I'm listing layout and navigation as two different problems, because aside from the danger of the layout, it is also very difficult to find the next tee. I believe 14 was across an open field and behind some tennis courts.
-Filler Holes. I think this is a problem with a lot of courses but I would say that it is here as well. There are a few holes that it feels like just got thrown in because they couldn't think of anything to do. If they cleaned up the two or three holes that seem bland then I think they would have a great job of variety.

Other Thoughts:

I am aware that I had a bad experience so this review is biased, but I also think that my experience is somewhat evidence of the climate of this course. It seems like the locals all love it, which often means that visitors don't.
This was my least favorite course that I have ever played.

much better 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 1, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

Played the course again today and my experience was much better. The new layout is getting a little more love and it undoubtedly offers many difficult/technical shots...Was disappointed the first time I came out about a month ago, but gave it another shot and had a good time

Cons:

With there being two baskets on every hole it does seem a tad cluster-filled...
