Technically it is a very technical course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 28, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Great location off Hwy60 which is conveniently just east of I-24
- Park is popular and that shows that it is a solid and loved course
- Locals are friendly and seem eager to make your game more enjoyable with company and guidance
-Yellow and Red Pins, as well as A/B locations
-Concrete tee boxes, benches, and great signage at the beginning of every single hole, YES! There is interestingly a nickname for every hole posted with the signage, such as "Bogeyville" on hole 7 (from memory)
- Use of Mandatory signs on two holes
- Fair amount of left and right hand approaches
- Great course to build your defined throwing arm, it's tight, has a lot of technical turns, trees, elevation, more trees, walkpaths, roads, a creek, and even more trees to work around, but with an occasional open shot to throw you break
- Course flows from hole to hole, newbies could easily find their way, especially with the hole signage
- Clean, well maintained, and respectable course, even the brush in the woods is kept relatively down
- Is worth a road trip to play, I drove 1.5 hours of back roads to get here from Missouri, and would do it again
- Excellent parking at Hole 1, where you could easily start playing from hole 1, 4, 12, 18, to skip to an open spot in the course, despite this, the course is still well spread out and not claustrophobic
- Well shaded, perfect for a hot summer day game, you are out of the sun 70% of the course

Cons:

- The course map at hole 1 has seen some age
- If you hate heavy wooded courses, this place is not for you
- It would be hard to call this course beginner friendly, it really requires a little bit of skill to live up to and enjoy
- Is potential of taking a disc from you, especially if the creek is up, or you grip lock and throw hard into the woods, just bring a friend or two when you play

Other Thoughts:

- A lot of these baskets are in blind spots, take the time to spot them out, it will be well worth it for your game
- Great course, I will surely return to play in the future, just wish it was a little closer to myself in Missouri

Great technical course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 16, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Very technical course in a beautiful park. Lots of different styles all on the same course, from dog legs, straight wide open holes, to heavily wooded. It's all here.

Cons:

Areas of the course tend to hold water quite well. Due to the ice storm, there is a lot of debris still lining some of the fairways, and in sections, a badly thrown disc can take a while to locate.

Other Thoughts:

The local guys have done a fantastic job of keeping this course playable considering the damage suffered during the ice storm.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 13, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

Definitely what I would consider a championship course. It forces you to try new shots and approaches. The people were really friendly. There are actually have score cards and pencils at the course. The par fours and fives are actually par fours and fives.

Cons:

Rediculously difficult for my skill level. I didn't use the free score card and pencil because then there would have been a record of how horrible I had done.

Other Thoughts:

I'm really glad I made the trip from Eddyville, IL. It was certainly worth it. When I was at the course there was no water or mosquitos.(It may have just been a dry time of the year though)

A must play if you are in the Area 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 11, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

Great mixture of long and short holes and open and wooded holes.

Cons:

When it rains it is wet... but that is the same for everywhere. The water just hangs around a bit longer.

Other Thoughts:

My solution to the water thing is... through over it... not in it

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 11, 2007 Played the course:never

Pros:

most fairways are tight with lots of trees,will test you shot varieties,with a few grip it and rip it holes,with a few semi open holes with decent length

Cons:

some under brush if you get out of the fairways,set up to challenge rht,if your buddy is lht he will have a huge advantage

Other Thoughts:

NO HILLS to have to hike up and down so you can play 36 and still be rearing to go....one of my fav courses
