Pinewood Elementary's disc golf course is a kid-friendly layout in a mostly open field dotted with a few trees and bushes. The short tees are clearly marked and the circular layout is pretty intuitive to follow considering you can see virtually the entire course from any particular position. The short layout is an incredibly quick play - averaging around 125' a hole - making this a great bagging opportunity or place to lick your wounds after visiting the area's more prominent courses. Great for putt and approach practice or casual safari rounds when school isn't in session.

Conveniently close to Renaissance Park. Area is well-mowed and there is virtually zero chance of losing a disc.

The short layout is definitely for kids, severely limiting its appeal. Even with this focus in mind I wish it introduced more line-shaping concepts: shots are almost all dead straight, and several are completely open. Even just a small hyzer or two around a tree would go a long way to introducing basic line shaping.

The black tees theoretically enhance the course's audience through significantly increased distance but I could only find one. It was hard to picture where an additional set of tees that more than doubles the short course's length would sit on a relatively small plot of land. There are so few obstacles here that whatever long tees do exist have little to work with. Course is completely flat.

I visited Pinewood Elementary after a day of playing Hornet's Nest and Renaissance Park. It was a perfect 10 minute round after being exhausted by a full day of playing. I'd recommend it for just such a light round.

Sweet tee signs, nice baskets, kind of nifty basket positions considering what they had to work with. Nice chill spot to air out the putters or if you want a little challenge a lid round. Ample parking. Flows well, easy navigation. Quick.

Very short holes. Some of the holes are really just longish putts. Mostly wide open in a field but some trees do spice it up a bit.

Natural tees and some are angled funny.

Literally right beside a school (duh) so no double fisting Olde English probably.

If you need to host an Ace Race or work on your putt & approach game, this is your course. Surprisingly more popular than I thought it would be. Great course for kids, uncoordinated women and complete n00bs. You could probably safari some longer, more interesting holes if have the course to yourself. The basket locations are better than just "baskets in a field" kind of 9 holers b/c they can punish you with road OB and trees if you're overzealous on a few of them. But it's a highly polished practice course and in the grand scheme of things I had to rate it harshly.
