Decent local course drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 10, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

Very good Udisc map
Nice baskets
Well maintained grounds

Cons:

Signage at the course is falling apart
Need to content with school hours/practices etc
Solar farm built in the middle of 4's fairway

Other Thoughts:

It was a bit long for what you would think. Some areas can eat discs since there are fences around some of the fields. An enjoyable course but not a destination by any stretch.

A Good 9 for beginners and for practice 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 17, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

+ Good signage, good baskets
+ High School grounds are nicely maintained - which means the course is mowed
+ Most holes require some thinking (about placement, elevation, wind). The course design does a lot with what it's been given
+ Chances to use forehand (4, 8), overhand (7)

Cons:

- It's true that the solar farm changes Hole #4 for the original intent. But it's a great chance to use a forehand, and let it fade into the hillside. Place an upshot, and you're up and down in par 3. The only thing to be careful is to not mistakenly throw at the #9 basket down at the bottom of the hill
- Hole #6 is a great dogleg. When I look at the picture taken from the basket in 2012, I'm amazed at how well the hole has been allowed to grown in. The tee sign is accurate regarding the dogleg, but the tee marker in the ground suggests aiming directly at the basket (and that would be a mistake)
- Not open during school hours. I imagine that includes team practices, because holes 1 and 2 throw across a marked practice field

Other Thoughts:

~ I love finding 9's that are designed with care, and are then maintained. Patriot Hills fits that bill
- Not enough here to be worth a long drive on its own, but if you're in the area (maybe playing Yetter), it's a fun 30+ minutes of throwing
~ This might be a little frustrating for the really new player (hazards and rollaways), but if they have some experience, this is a great place to get the feel of a course without getting them in too far over their heads
