Great course, well maintained, Driving Range, Great scenery. Perfect for the beginning player. You will probably never lose a disc here as everything is kept nice, (no crazy thick stuff). 3 to 4 long holes rest are ace able. Would play again.

The sewer hole..

Love It!

Great course. A lot of fun because there are many short holes to try to ace. There is one long hole on the front nine that will test your power a bit. There is also a driving range near by so you can see how far you can chunk a disc.

No cons.

Overall a great course. I will play here again as soon as I am back here to do so. see complete review in other box. Played again 2/2012. Played all 18. This is a truly great course. Plays like 3 separate courses... First 6 holes play through trees and creeks. Good basket placements and use of terrain. 6 is a nice tree tunnel. % plays to a drop off basket wedged between the creek and the puddle. These first six are overall great holes.8 through 16 play through the woodsiness. A nice combination of lefts and rights. 7, 17 and 18 are just wide open pints and shoots along the creek. I played the perfect small bag of discs for this course. I played them all. I had what I needed when I reached in. No disc was unplayed. I brought a stable and understable driver. A stable, an understable and an overstable middie and a preferred putter. 1 through 6 and 8 through 16 could be played just with the set of 3 middies, perfectly Park is clean, trash free and enjoyable. Locals were quite friendly. Great spot for tourneys and events.

I did not find any other than the mud on the back side... but that is seasonal and will be gone soon. Back almost exactly 1 year later and the muddy parts are right where they were last time. Again, likely seasonal. Some info on some of the white tee posts is missing... but except wanting to know the difference, not really needed. Easy to navigate as long as you are aware of the 6 to 7 transition and the 16 to 17 jump across the creek.

This is my disc golf course rating system. Each element of the course is worth ½ disc for a total of 10, ½ disc units or 5 full discs of rating.
My 10 categories are:
1. Quality of tee pads.
2. Quality of signage, both individual hole signs as well as a sign board and course layout at the hole one beginning location.
3. Course amenities. Benches at tees, garbage cans on course, disc bag posts/hooks, next tee arrows, etc.
4. Overall park amenities. Things like bathrooms, drinking fountains, playground areas, anything that improves the overall location.
5. Overall use of available terrain features. How well did the designers use what they had to work with?
6. Changes in elevation. Some courses have this occurring naturally. Others have created it. Either way it is vital that a good course is beyond flat... even in Iowa or Nebraska.
7. Variety of hole length. Is it mixed up? Some long, some short. Keep things interesting.
8. Tee and basket options. Are there tee options and/or alternate basket locations? Can the course be played different on different visits?
9. Signature hole? Is there one hole in specific that leaves an impression? Creates a unique memory?
10. Fun Factor - Purely subjective on my part. Did I have fun?

Paschall park, Mesquite, TX

1. Yes. Good tee pads. 2 for each hole. I played the white (shorter) course.
2. Yes. Good signage on posts. Nice main map. Next tee indicators on baskets. Easy to navigate course.
3. Yes. Park amenities are good, some but few golf specific amenities are present. Nice driving range with distance signs but course specific amenities are few.
4. Yes. Very nice clean multi use park
5. Yes. Quite well done here. Nice use of the creek like areas on the early holes. Nice use of woodsines in the tens/teens.
6. Yes. Some elevation on first few holes... back portion is mostly flat. What is avail. is well used.
7. Yes. Good assortment even when I played just the short tees... 7 is a long big-arm bomb. Early holes are short and technical. Woodsy holes are fun and well done.
8. Yes. 2 sets of tees on all holes. I did not see pin options, though. Mando markers on early holes, too.
9. No. I can not say there was a sign hole... no one hole stood out as a memorable experience in uniqueness... but entire course is just GREAT. If I was here another day I would play here again.
10. Yes. Great fun. Excellent course. I can see great tournaments held here. Big fun.

Rating = 9 yes, 1 no = 4.5 disc rating

the first 2 holes make getting through trees a big challenge hole 7 is wide open so you can really air out some long drives and the back 9 otherwise known as "birdie alley" lets you make up for all the tree love you will get on the first few holes.

restrooms on site werent bad at all playground close by and all the locals seem to really be helpful and friendly

hole 17 and 18 can eat a disc fast if mis thrown so be prepared to go swimming hole 1 should be listed as a par 3 instead of a par 4 even from the short tee
the back 9 can turn into swamp lands after a good rain but it looks like they are trying to fix that
on weekends this place is packed and weekday afternoons get busy as well

all in all this is a course that while it might not be the premier course in the dallas area it is a course that everyone should try at least once very fun course and have a blast everytime i play there you can easily make this a 36 hole course just by playing from both sets of tees
i consider this course to be my home course

Mesquite uses these bright yellow poles with a red ball on top to mark their baskets, and it's great. Easy to see from a distance, makes courses flow really well. They put a sticker with par, distance, which tee your at and a general arrow pointing to the hole. Tees were all the bright yellow Innova baskets so easy to fine. Baskets are in great shape, couldn't be too old with very little graffiti. Great course flow, Good shot variety.

Poor drainage, we played after a rain the day before and we had more mud on our shoes than we could handle. A couple tee pads are in low spots, so mud flowed up over them and made them extremely slick, but according to a local the mud is common for Mesquite. A few holes around 15-16 got really close to some houses next to the park.

Great course, lots of variety in the shots needed, poor drainage. If it rained recently, pick another place to play, a local told me Lake Lewisville is usually really good after a rain (and it's a great course as well)

Very easy to navigate even for the 1st timers, and from either teepad.
Well marked concrete teepads for both blue and white tees.
Water comes into play, however during dry summer not really an issue.
Holes 8-14 is in woods, however they are pretty open and easy to drop your score on these holes.
Nice pavillion with lots of tables.
Nice small playground for kiddos.
Lots of shade.
Driving range is a cool touch.

Not sure all of the measurements are correct. I normally throw max 315-330, and on 8 it states 375 from the white tee. I overthrew the basket on both rounds. Some of the others seem off by a bit, but I was not walking around with a measuring device either.
Parking was fine, however I can see how this could be an issue on busy days.
Scary to wonder how bad this place can flood during rains. There is a flood gauge between 4-5 that shows 6 feet depth.

Fun course. I played pushing my kids in a double jogger and flew through the course. Played for 30 min at playground, then played another round.
Easy to get to, great park, and some really friendly players there. Fun times

Clean concrete tee pads with dual locations
Nice quality signs
Clean park
Quiet and not crowded
Mix of trees and open shots
Water on several holes
Restrooms and water fountain
Plenty of parking
Discatcher Baskets

Bad drainage in many areas
No elevation changes throughout course
Some holes lack challenge, especially from the short

Hole one is labeled as a par 4, even from the short pad. It should definitely be a par 3.

This is a clean and safe park that is well maintained by the city parks dept.Every hole is complete with short and long tees along with discatcher baskets and good signage as well.

There are plenty of good ace opportunities if you can throw it straight

The course flows easily enough,but there is a map located on the bulletin board near the parking lot.
Restrooms and water fountain are located at the picnic pavilion between the parking and hole #1( you will pass these and the bulletin board on the way to the first tee)
The driving range next to #7 is a great and unique feature that makes this course stand out a little

Almost every hole can be reached with a straight flat shot, the longs change this a little but mostly add just length.
If it has rained recently forget about it.At least 75% of the course turns to mud and puddles.

In the summer and fall the mosquitoes are terrible due to all the standing water around the trees along the back nine,

Holes 4,5,7,17,18 all border the creek. It can get pretty windy on the more open front nine but the trees keep it calm on the back

There are two large parking lots(and a few spaces near the first holes) parking can get bad due to the popularity of this course by DGers and non-golfers alike.

#2's basket doubles as a practice basket

-Nice message board with score cards
-Ace friendly
-Nice multiple concrete tee pads
-Nice baskets
-Nice signage with all hole info
-Trash cans on most holes
-Nice mixture of short and long shots
-Nice parking
-Very cleaned and well maintained
-Water fountains

-Can get very muddy after a good rain
-No practice basket
-Lots of mosquitos
-No restrooms

This is another great course in the DFW area. I drove from Fort Worth to play this course and it was well worth the drive. I will be back to play it again.

Challenging holes. Nice clean park. Great location. Lots of ace runs. Plenty of parking around the course.

Not a good place when people want to have a picinic lunch right in the fairway. Some of the park visitors have no clue of what is going on.

This is a fantastic course with lots of tunnel type drives and accuracy shots. The woods were used to perfection. The course is not overly challenging but fun just the same. They have put in a excellent baskets and cement tee pads. The signs are excellent and the layout of the entire course is challenging. This course even boasts a rarity, a driving range. It is well marked and logically placed next to the parking lot. The course is so well maintained that wood chips have even been dispersed to help control the mud after a rain.

There is little to complain about at this place. There was no sign of a restroom. There is very little elevation on the course.

The fun factor was great. The holes were fun and the course was a blast even as most of the course was flat. I will most certainly be going back there. It was a real treat to play.

As a beginner I really enjoyed playing this course. The baskets are well marked and visible from the tee. There are just enough trees on some holes to help you work on your skills, not a lot of brushy woods like other courses. This course will make you think about your approach. Other holes allow for long open drives with a few water hazards.

Course gets muddy after a good rain. Some signs are not quite accurate

The city of Mesquite continues to install new courses with high quality equipment. Nice large sized concrete tees on both long and short tee pads. Sweet dual chain Discatcher Pro baskets are easy to see from a distance. Tee signs include an individual map of each hole and are located on high visibility yellow posts. The course boasts a nice variety of lefty vs. righty holes. The maintenance of this course is evident by the grounds conditions, there was minimal trash and wood chips had been placed down over muddy areas. Recently installed foot bridges make crossing the creek much easier. The Blue tee on #5 is a great tricky hole for RHBH... throw the risky big anny and risk the creek, or a forehand flick, or run the gauntlet of trees. Restrooms and water fountain by parking lot at Hole #1.

No significant elevation in play. The distance posted for hole #10 is not accurate the basket is much closer than the listed ~400'. Perhaps the basket was moved up after the signs were printed to minimize conflicts with #11 tee pads. Several of the baskets are too close to the subsequent tee boxes such that they endanger players teeing off on the next hole. There is a creek that will eat some discs for bad throws on #7, #17, and #18 and to a lesser (or shallower) degree on #4 and #5. Basket #2 is pretty close to a children's playground so be wary of throws in that area. Parking lots are somewhat small and could fill on busy days.

I played on a week night and the course was really busy with a mixture of casual and serious players. I was playing solo and had no problems playing through several groups. This was a fun course to play and I would easily play it again if I was in the area. Props to Mesquite, keep up the good work!

The trees are fun on the first few holes, the course is well laid out and well maintained. The back nine is very challenging. Nice tees and baskets, and there is a driving range which is cool.

The river will eat your discs, the course is dangerous in the wind because of this.

We played with a large group and there were a lot of one and two groups. Which made us feel a bit rushed , but everyone was cool and helpful with directions. Good playground for the kids and nice bathrooms.

Good tee signs, baskets, and pads!! Pleanty of trash cans, dont get why they chain them down though. The foot bridges that cross the little creek are very helpful as well. All in all a short course that is good for beginners and for ace runs. The disc golf driving range next to hole 7 is pretty cool. Dont see alot of places to lose plastic for the newer guys either.

LOTS of standing water. The sewer smell on hole 10/11. Not very challenging for pro/adv players even from the longs.

Parking seems it could get to a disaster if the park is full. Would rather hit up BB Owens or Rockwall for sure.

Complete with concrete tee boxes for a par and pro par - this is a real 36-hole course if you want it to be. The tees are 6x12 and each was fully marked with a color sign complete with picture and yardage. Make sure you keep track when playing the blue (pro par) versus the white (par) tees.

The creek makes a person work, especially on hole 5 (good risk versus reward). After a rain storm some of the feeder streams become real hazards as well.

Good location in the park and most holes are flat and stroller friendly, however some of the bridges over the creeks are not. There are also restroom facilities and a playground in the park to occupy the kids.

BEST HOLE/S: #5

Hole #6 and #16 felt like pinball holes and hole #6 felt like a filler just to get to a long wide open hole #7. Some players may feel that this course is too short, but the holes under 200 feet are tight with trees and obstacles.

The course map is on the way to hole five and fairly out of the way of the first tee. This is coupled with some awkward flow between pin and tees through the first 6 holes.

Hole 10 through 15 are shorter and more technical which may turn off some players, and I noticed that the sign yardage (hole 10 is a good example) didn't feel very accurate. My buddy hit the basket (six inches from in) with a ¾ strength throw and the hole is listed at 375'. I would say it felt more like 275'.

WORST HOLE/S: #6

With a short but diverse 18-hole course, I had low to medium expectations for Paschall, but walked away feeling very satisfied with my round, the course, and its challenges. I played this course after three straight days of downpours, but even in the thick mud I enjoyed myself immensely. All holes played some type of water because of the rain, and many holes became true risk versus reward shots.

While the course flow wasn't perfect - given the fact that there are 36 viable holes of golf here I would add this to my play anytime I'm in Dallas list. It may not be the most popular course in the area, but it certainly was a gem.

Hole 1 is a tricky low hallway shot with a very shallow stream that comes into play after the rains,it can foul up your shots on hole 2 as well .I enjoyed playing thru the Mesquite trees on number 16.Decent distances not too short,Water on the first few holes keeps it somewhat interesting.Logs in the back corner at nine for relaxation.Decent mixture of open and wooded shots.

There were only two holes that really make you hafta think more then twice about what line to take.Flat playing surface,Some holes seemed crammed in too much.

The tee box mistake of putting three of them on fifteen makes playing the longer one very difficult.It ain't no Rockwall but its a decent answer till Audobon makes its comeback, if that ever happens.

Excellent Signage.

Dual concrete tee pads.

Good flow and is easy to find your way.

Quite a variety of holes from tight over a winding creek to narrow well defined fairways to wide open super long holes.

This course has a 400' driving range.

A few holes are just real wide open so in the summer you feel like you have to cross the Sahara to play the shaded area of the course.

The neighborhood yards that run along one side of the course comes into play on a couple of holes. One yard even has signs saying "keep off" so a mando has been installed to keep people from throwing at that yard.

You could lose discs in the water which could be frustrating for newer players.

Some courses are too hard. Some courses are too soft. This course is just right for a fun, quick round.

This new course is very well maintained, with excellent signs, nice long tee-pads, and a fair mix of holes. There are some long holes (~650ft par 4, two ~450ft par 3s) from the Blue (pro) tees, and even the White (am) tees have some decent lengths.

There were also some short holes, a couple that required good aim, but nothing that felt unfair. The White tees (which I didn't play) had several holes that were simply short straight shots without obstructions, but perhaps that made up for a ~375ft par 3.

Following the course was reasonably easy, though there are a couple of spots (6 to 7 and 16 to 17) where you have to look around.

Also a plus was that there's really little chance you'll lose a disc. Only holes 17 and 18 have much risk of dropping a disc into a creek with water.

Biggest con was by far the fact that the Blue tees were often (6 times total) placed within the fairway of the previous hole. Perhaps they don't expect many people to be playing the pro tees, but I found it a tad ridiculous. Had a group been behind us, they would have either had to wait until we threw for our hole, or been very accurate.

These tees are usually placed off to the side of the fairway, so perhaps the feeling was that they wouldn't get in the way. But I'm an amateur who prefers to play harder settings, and so when I'm throwing 300' ft, I'm likely to be 20 yards off the mark.

That's really the only serious con. The area is flat, so there isn't much opportunity for height changes. There are creeks, but all but one is dried up (this might be a good thing).

Parking was a little odd; there's a few parking spots near the 1st hole, but most of the parking is further into the park, so you have a little walk to the tee. Also, there isn't a practice basket. There appears to be one, but it is actually the basket for the 2nd hole.

I intend to play this course again with my friends. I really applaud Mesquite for putting in such a nice course. They even have a very nice scorecard that you can pick up from the Mesquite recreation center, which is apparently near the course on Galloway.

If the course gains a following, then I think it will start to feel cramped due to the tees. Or everyone will choose to play the short white ones.

I'd rate the course to be less challenging than Veteran's Park, either of the Lester Lorch courses, Lake Lewisville, and certainly easier than the new Rockwall course. However, it's closer to the city than all of those, and is therefore a good alternative.

I think it is more challenging than B.B. Owen, or most of the other 9-hole courses in close to Dallas.

Several interesing, unique hole unlike anything else I've seen in the Dallas area. Utilizes par 4s and 5s, which is something I always enjoy. It's in a very nice looking park with some intereting landscape features (creek, small rolling hills, creek, plenty of trees). Very nice tee pads (2 per hole) and great signs. Several challenging holes, pretty scenic for the most part.

Course doesn't flow very well...the first 2 holes are the hardest, and the last 2 are wide open and under 400'. Similar holes seem to be grouped together...there are 4 straight "alley" shots in a row, followed by 3 short but mainly straight wooded shots, with 2 wide open holes at the end. Many of the tees are placed in odd or potentially dangerous spots...I hear that this was the city's fault (not the designer), but it's still a safety hazard if the course is crowded. A few of the distances on the signs are clearly wrong, and one of the tee boxes is clearly facing the wrong direction.

Update: The city moved the long tee for #15 to the correct position, and a few of the baskets have been moved to new locations to keep players from landing in the next hole's fairway.

Overall, I really enjoyed this course! I'd qualify it as "good"...with some modifications and possibly a new starting / finishing point, it could be a great course! The unique holes (1-3, 12-16) are very fun and challenging, but the rest feel like "fillers"...just something to link together the good holes. My main issue is that the tees were in dangers spots (I landed on the next hole's tee 2-3 times, and those were good shots). The course flow, although a little choppy in spots, is decent overall...I personally feel that if the course began on #3, it would provide a much more complete feel. It's just weird starting on the 2 toughest holes then finishing on 2 wide-open ace runs. All-in-all: it's a course I plan on playing again next time I'm in Dallas!
