Great Putter Practice 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 6, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

- Course Sign w/ course layout
- Short walk to first tee from parking lot
- Signs at all tees w/ distances an hole layout
- Cement tees
- Nice Innova baskets
- Multiple pin placements
- Well maintained park

Cons:

- Very short holes
- Holes through the Brazillian Pepper are very luck based even for the short length of holes
- Packed into a very tight area
- Park is a heavily trafficked multi-use park
- NO DOGS ALLOWED

Other Thoughts:

I decided to play this course to add another one to the list. I found it to lack any challenge for a player of my skill level. This course caters well to the beginner, shorter thowing players and players looking to get in some good putter practice. I imagine this course could be very fun for some safari golf. Not worth taking a trip for this one. However, it could be good warm-up if passing on the way to another course.

Pitch and Putt 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 13, 2010 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Nice beginners course. Good practice for seasoned players for putt and approach. Easy to follow layout and nice baskets

Cons:

it's TINY walked it twice in about 30 min... 18 holes in thirty... when was the last time you did that! I dont know maybe thats a Pro not a con

Other Thoughts:

Putt and approach practice only. Bust out a putter and a mid you want to break in you may throw it once a round. Didnt do any run up drives at all basicly played the pad as point where a "Drive" landed and practiced my up shot and long putts

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 11, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

9 holes of disc golf with very easy access to I-75. The baskets and tees are in excellent condition with the course being still very new. Excellent use of the tiny piece of land available for disc golf. This is a very beginner friendly course and the people I ran into were very friendly. Easy access to parking. This is a great place to practice putting and also an excellent course to practice putting around obstacles and tight tunnel upshots.

Cons:

There are some drainage on the south side of the course. The holes are all very short with obstacles not really being all that difficult. The flow on the first two holes is confusing for a moment as are the couple holes on the back side of the course.

Other Thoughts:

You don't need anyone to walk the course with as it is very straight forward. Just check the map on this site because you have to walk past some holes on the back of the course to get to the next hole and then work your way back toward the front. Could be confusing for a couple of minutes but the park is so small you couldn't get too messed up. Most players should have a really nice ace run on hole 9. You could rack up plenty of aces on the 90 foot straight hole 6.

Putt putt for the fun of it! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 14, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This 9 hole course is fun and addictive! I'd call it the world's most difficult all par 2 course. It provides a very good fun challenge for beginners and will keep the short game in shape for even the world's best.

The course builders did a very good job getting the maximum out of roughly 2.5 acres.

The concrete tees, baskets and signs are all excellent. There are alternate pin locations that provide variety for the locals.

The holes that have been cut through the infamous bra-peps have very unique looks to them. The canopies have been well-preserved to provide good shade on much of the course.

Cons:

Very, very short. No opportunities to use power.

Holes 4 and 9 have OB fences that are very much in play. Many players will throw over the fences.

Other Thoughts:

The designers did a very good job with the given property. The course is fun and appeals to a wide range of skill levels.

The rating of 1.5 reflects:
Average course = (5+0)/2 = 2.5
Deduct .5 for only 9 holes
Deduct .5 for very, very short

Don't be a dirty discer! Leave the course cleaner than you found it.
