A COURSE IS BETTER THAN NO COURSE 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 6, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Great Baskets - Good quality baskets always make a day golfing more enjoyable.

Well Marked - If you find yourself wondering where you're going next, just look around. Tee box signs or "next tee" indicators are at every hole.

Cute - Seems like the front 9 are a great place for families to learn

Wonderful hand carved signs from local sponsors.

Cons:

Short. And by short i mean short, short. It's a pitch and putt and most. I think I use a driver for onc shot on this course and that because I throw a roller.

- It honestly seems like someone heard about Disc Golf on TV and the internet and then decided to put up a course without having actually played. The land could have been used beautifully if someone would have taken the time to find a player in the area with literally "any" knowledge of the game.

- The "newer" back 9 has fewer lines to the tee than pretty much any course i have ever played. It seems like the designer wanted it "hard for the sake of hard". Rather than taking the time to creatively solve a way to maximize land it literally plays like someone said "oh, there's a bunch of trees let's put the basket 200 feet away and see if anyone can get through".

- Throw and pray is no way to play disc golf.

- The course is several years old at this point and I haven't seen a single brush pile moved or burned. Great for insects and squirrels, horrible for discs.

- Unrealistic pars. There are "NO REAL PAR 4's" on this course. But some should probably be Par 2.

Other Thoughts:

Any course is better than no course. I hope pittsford rec takes the time to improve this amazing piece of land for a proper course.
