This course seems to have had a handful of redesigns, so read my hold breakdown in Other Thoughts for how to get around and not throw at the wrong basket.

I went out of my way to play this course over others nearby because I felt like the pictures showed a better park. Having played it, the best way to describe it is - It's okay. Other reviews will tell you that the course has had some updates/pin position moves. This is a quality course for a casual/relaxed round. It's not going to challenge or excite any veteran players or new course hunters, but it seems like the community cares about it, trying to make improvements and keeping the park clean.

PROS:
- Good baskets on every hole
- Good tee pads on almost every hole. (All but hole 2, 12, and 13)
- Pretty easy to navigate. No map is needed once you find hole 1, just make sure you're throwing at the correct basket. Some of the holes are close together and you may see the wrong basket first.
-Good for both backhand and forehand dominate players.
-Basically no rough to be had here. You should be able to throw an upshot after almost any drive.

CONS:
-Biggest complaint is that a handful of the holes don't really have a line to the basket (8 and 17 come first to mind). Hyzer around all the trees is available on pretty much every hole, but in a park with so many trees, I want to throw more than hyzers or flat shots that fade. Maybe the hyzer around everything was the intended play, but I hate being confused on where to throw when stepping up to the tee.
-With the current layout as of November 2021, I threw to the wrong basket three times. One of those holes doesn't have a sign to help (but I describe it below). The others were mistakes on my end, but there's a flaw in design in my opinion when you identify a basket off the tee that looks correct, and it's not.
-Hard to find hole 1 if you haven't looked at pictures or a map.
-This park has a lot of other stuff for people to do, and there's a walking path going around/through it. Some holes play over the path or close to it. When I played, the park was empty, but it could be different at a busy time.
-Not a ton of parking. Could be a problem if the park is busy.

HOLE BREAKDOWN:
Hole 1 is probably the worst on the course. It's hard to find and it's the one hole you could easily lose a disc on. The hole is behind the pool area and next to one of the main roads. You'd completely miss it if you didn't know to look there. The fairway requires either a straight shot or a right-hand forehand hyzer or flex. The right side of the fairway has a large fence lining it. The fence has space near the ground where a disc could slide through. I didn't see any way to get into the pool area when I was there. The right side of the fairway is lined by trees with space in them. If you want to throw the forehand flex/hyzer, you'll have to either go between some trees or around the outside of the first one.
Hole 2, in contrast, is one of the best on the course. You have to throw slightly uphill, but the fairway dips downhill for the first half of it. Trees line the left side of the fairway, similar to hole 1, and the nearest tree to the tee has a lot of limbs that create a ceiling. The right side is open, but there's a tree to the right off the tee that prevents the pure hyzer. For the average thrower to park this one, you need to throw a straight shot with a stable disc & you're going to want to get the nose of the disc up to get the height right. This is hard to do because this is the worst tee pad on the course. it's broken up and sloped downhill. So .. walk down and throw up ... best of luck to all.
Hole 3 is kind of hard to remember. Off the tee there's a basket straight ahead which is the wrong one. There's a shorter basket slightly left. Your choice of right fading hyzer or left fading hyzer around the trees.
Hole 4 has some trees near the tee that force you to throw high. The basket is on the backside of a large tree that's slightly left of the tee. The trick here is to throw high enough to clear those first trees but not too high where you fade out too soon.
Hole 5 is a straight shot with a line of spaced-out trees between you and the basket. Pick your favorite hyzer, or the one that works best with the wind.
Hole 6 feels like the first distance throw of the round. The fairway is large enough to flex something if you'd like, but there are trees on both sides of the fairway that mostly eliminate a hyzer (if you want to birdie). Overall, it's mostly straight from the tee.
Hole 7's pin & tee placements make it a fun hole. There's a straight to fade right-hand forehand line through some trees, or you can throw a hyzer out right that fade's left. The basket is on a small hill. It's not that elevated, but enough to create roll-aways and force an uphill putt from 20 - 30 feet away.
Hole 8's tee can be missed if you're not careful. 7 and 8 play the same direction. So you'll need to backtrack 40 steps or so to find it. From the tee of 7, 8's tee is slightly right and forward. Hole 8 is the most Pro-level birdie on the course. Stepping up to the tee, there's no direct line to the basket. There's a tunnel of spaced-out trees in front of you, but there's no gap to hit. A high right-hand forehand hyzer could get there but fading into the pin is tricky. A large tree creates and overhang over the basket, knocking down discs that come in from the left side. The basket is also on a small hill, similar to hole 7, making the gap between the overhanging tree and the ground even smaller I think a sky-anhyzer shot would have better luck than a forehand, but that's based on my distance abilities. I did birdie this hole in my playthrough, but I went with a right-hand backhand roller with a Nuke SS. This took away the ceiling issue at the end of the flight & the journey up the small hill slowed the disc down. I enjoyed this hole, but I play a lot of disc golf. I think average/casual players (who this course is really for) would mark this hole down as the one they'll never get.
Hole 9 plays the opposite direction of 8. It's a straight shot or a hyzer fading left. There's one large tree near the basket that you need to get close to but not hit in order to park this. It's not too long of a hole, so experienced players could use a putter or midrange here.
Hole 10 has some trees in a line between the tee and the basket. There's a 10 - 15 foot gap to throw through if you want to go close to straight at it. You could also fit a hyzer through there. The other option is to go left of the center tree and fade something in on the backside of the green.
Hole 11 is where the course can get confusing. There's a tee near hole 10's basket, but it must be for an old pin position. Walk back to hole 10's tee, and there's a tee pad across the walking path that plays to hole 11. I believe the sign says Hole 12, but this is hole 11. This has a tight gap off the tee forced by two trees. It's a short hole, but a main road is maybe 10 yards left of the basket, so you'll want to limit fade. I stood at the front of the tee and no-stepped a DX dart with a little hyzer to park this one.
Hole 12 is also confusing. Walk down the walking path from hole 11 and you'll find the next tee pad which points toward the parking lot. IGNORE THE TEE PAD. It's facing what is currently hole 14's basket. Across the walking path, very close to the tee, is a pink flag or two symbolizing the tee for 12. There's no pad here, it's just grass. The grass tee points north, I believe, and you can see a basket in the distance beyond a long field. This is the second longest hole on the course (I believe). There's essentially nothing in the way, but it's around 450 to 500 feet.
Hole 13's tee is to the right of Hole 12's basket (as you walk up to it). This is a similar shot to hole 12, but it's a little longer.Nothing in the way. Straight shot back toward the rest of the course. I played on a windy day, and Hole 12 & 13 provided opposite difficulty. Hole 12 had a strong tailwind. Hole 13 had a strong headwind.
Hole 14's tee is near 13's basket. It plays towards the parking lot. Not much to worry about here. There's a electric pole halfway through the fairway to shape your shot around. There's also a tennis court area left of the basket, so if you throw too far out to the left, you could get caught behind it. This would require an errant shot or a bad gust though.
Hole 15 requires you to avoid the same electric pole. This one felt longer than the tee sign said. Depending on the wind, it's a shot of your choice to the basket, as long as you go mostly straight or out right. There's some room on the left side to work with.
Hole 16 is a tunnel-like shot formed by trees and an electric pole. The best shot is a something the flexes midway through the flight and fades back to center. A righthand backhand flex would be best, but you could do a righthand forehand flex as well and get to the basket.
Hole 17 was my least favorite on the course. I assume some trees were put in after the course was designed, because the only logical shot is a wide hyzer out left that fades right. The basket and tee are on opposite sides of a walking path. You could go straight-ish at this as long as your disc gets some skip left at the end, but the gap and ceiling are incredibly tight.
Hole 18 plays back toward the parking lot. There's essentially nothing in the way, but the basket is on a hill that slopes upward, so getting the height right off the tee is the trick to parking this one.

Pulaski Park is a medium sized city park which houses a soccer field, community center, a swimming pool, playground and picnic shelters. The park is flat with some scattered trees.

The course starts at one corner of the pool and plays around and through the park in kind of a clockwise direction, with some detours here and there. The tee signs (when present) give the basic info. The tee pads are concrete and some are a little on the small side. The baskets are powder coated a pretty color and have triple chains and extra deep catching baskets.

The course plays as a recreational level. It's relatively short, pretty wide open and very forgiving. There is a nice combination of short ACE runs and 250-300 lengths.

Two holes give you the "Psych" treatment. # 1 plays next to the pool fence. It's 230' and straight but throwing that close to the pool gets in your head. You don't want to look like clown and throw your drive in the pool in front of all those swimmers. And # 12 is another hole that gets in your head. It's just 220' and straight but you have to throw your drive between a gap approx 3-4' wide. This gap is just about 6 feet in front the tee pad.

I would always throw holes 13 and 14 together. It makes no sense to tee off for 13 and play the hole, then backtrack back to the 14 pad. Makes sense to tee off for both and then hole out on both.

I liked hole 18. It's about 290' or 300' with a fun window to aim at.

# 1 is just not a good place for the hole, so close to the pool fence.

Signs are missing at # 2, 8, 17 and 18.

Baskets 11 and 13 are set a little low.

# 14 basket is leaning.

Pulaski is a solid recreational level course. Beginners will enjoy playing here, too. It's a little short for intermediate and above players. Other park users might give you fits, too. It's just another Chicago 9'er only 18 holes of bliss.

-Good variety of shots.
-It is always free.
-If football field is not in use it is a great place to test your distance shots out.
-All the baskets have been replaced.
-I went during the day on weekdays and it was not busy.

-The tee pads are missing.
-The organization of the course is not as fluent as others.
-Bathrooms are randomly locked.
-First timers will have some difficulty following markers.

I like this course because it is the closest course to me with the most variety. I would recommend bringing binoculars so you shoot for the right basket. If they would just install new tee pads and fix some of the markers for flow I would give this course a much higher rating.
