Teepads are permanent and large enough for the course.

Elevation is well-used, providing both uphill and downhill looks.

Mature trees throughout provide large obstacles and force the thrower to hit some tight lines.

Navigational signs on tees and pins help direct course flow.

Good mix of distances, from 200' to 425'.

Variety allows for playing multiple rounds on the same day without being bored.

Hole 9, a huge downhill bomber, was the standout hole for me.

Navigation from 3 to 4 is rough; the tree for 4 is across the path and behind a cluster of trees.

College students don't always stay out of the way.

I was in town visiting a friend, and we took a quick break out of our day to play this course. For a 9-hole course, I was really impressed! It's accessible, easy to navigate, and provides enough challenge to be worth a visit.

Beginner/Intermediate 9 hole course on the north part of campus. More challenging and hilly than typical 9 hole courses in Indy.

Tees - One large brick tees that are mostly even per hole.

Signs - Great signs that show map of hole, hole number, distance, and par (and they are in school colors which is a nice touch. Sign with info on disc golf at start of course near hole 1. Signs hanging below baskets pointing towards next hole. Sign after 3 pointing you towards 4.

Baskets - 9 extremely grippy Chainstar baskets.

Variety - Extreme elevation! Several uphill shots. A few downhill bombs. A few blind shots. No hole is flat. Many mature trees on every hole that force you to navigate wisely. One bad throw and you can roll waaaaay away from the fairway. Great mix of distance ranging from 200-425.

Course has great views of campus and looks great in the fall.

Lots of much needed shade in the summer.

Easy to get to and easy to navigate.

Benches and trash cans on site. Course is well maintained.

Downhill drives are feel good drives. Long bombs where you throw further than you normally do. Be careful not to overthrow. Hole 2 is also a very solid hole.

Discs available in nearby building.

Only one tee per hole. Adding a second tee per hole either of a varying difficulty or if it was an alternate tee would drastically improve this course and add much more variety. There is room to do so and change the line for each hole.

No alternate basket locations.

A few fairways border each other (6 and 7) and can cause safety issues. A mandolin on hole 6 helps to eliminate this issue.

Course is frequently closed during home football games and concerts on the hill (beware). Baskets will get pulled.

Course could use a few signs pointing you to the next tee (after hole 3 comes to mind).

A few tees and baskets near the street. Could add danger.

Course is on a popular hill and can become very busy.

Thorn tree next to basket on hole 3. Could damage you or your disc.

I love this course. Even though it is only 9 holes, it's a must play if in the area. It's great to introduce students to the game. I want to give this course a 3.5 but with only 9 baskets and 9 holes I just can't. This is one hell of a course. Alternate basket locations and dual tees could boost this course to a 3.5.

There is another 9 hole course, Pickett Park, that is shorter than a half mile away (short walk). If this course is too hard, play Pickett park. If it is too easy, I would suggest Murdock Park. This course plus Pickett make a full 18.

The views and elevation make this course great. Additional tees would greatly improve this course. I would recommend it if traveling through Northern Indiana off Interstate 65. Check the home football schedule before playing.

A very fun course! Of all the 9-hole or less courses I've ever played, this is absolutely in my top 3.

There's a great variety of shots including open and tight shots, short and long, hyzer and anhyzer. The signature hole in my mind is #9, a massive 400 feet downhill bomb, which is a hole I definitely didn't see coming but it pleasantly surprised me.

The location of it is awesome as well, on one side it overlooks Purdue's campus and on the other side is the delta delta delta house which has a really great looking exterior and the things living inside are pretty attractive too.

There's fantastic signage, good tees, good quality baskets, and very good flow.

The biggest con in my eyes is that it's only 9 holes. The design and everything is great and the land is greatly utilized. I wish there would have been more available.

On a few of the holes, #2 and #9 especially stand out, if you shank a drive (or massively overshoot), you have the potential to hit a car which is one of the worst possible things outside of hitting a person...but it's tough to avoid on this course without giving up significant fun points.

At the end of the day, I feel bad only giving Purdue's campus course a 3.0, but at the end of the day, it's only 9 holes, but it's absolutely worth checking out if you're in the area. I'd love to go back!

The signs are awesome, especially for hole 4. The course is well maintained and the use of the space is well done. Quick course for a lunch time throw.

The majority of holes are 200 ft and the placement of holes almost always will force you into tree line. Especially on 6 where the mando forces you to either throw into the tree line above or risk going out of bounce on the left by throwing a straight shot. Hole 3 is frustrating due to absolutely no fairway, I mean I understand obstacles but come on.

At times the course plays like a challenging disc control course, but then the wind on the hill makes its extremely frustrating for all the short shots. Hole 9 will make up for hole 7 for beginners as you get major flight.

Purdue's course is one of the better 9-holers I've played, and blends a unique mix of amenities that make for a very good course.

The strongest aspect of this course is the land used. Most college courses I've played use throw away land in some desolate area of the campus, but Purdue's course is on and along a huge hill in the middle of campus, so you get awesome views of the surrounding area.

Every basket has a next tee arrow on the bottom of the pole that makes naviation easy. All the signs include recommended flight paths and designated OB.

The course is designed to use the hill as the main challenge on most shots, requiring players to adjust to big uphill shots on one hole then big downhill looks on the next. Large trees add obstacles on most holes.

My biggest qualm about this course was the lack of distance. After the brutal uphill bomb on #2, 5 out of the next 6 holes play at 255 or less. Other than that, my other cons are just nit picking...

The brick tees look cool, and they're functional, but they're on the small side and allow for no more than a two step run up.

When I played this course, construction on the band shell was blocking the tee on #1, The pin for #9 was only about 250ft from the tee, so I'm assuming that had been moved due to construction as well. This didn't effect my rating. but it sucked none the less.

This is probably the best college course I've played, and one of the best 9ers I've played. It's definitely worth a stop if you're anywhere near Purdue.

•Chainstar targets •Paver brick tees •High Quality tee signs with directional signs hanging from the baskets •Highest point in the County?...nice views of the campus. #1 215' Par 3 uphill drive,guarded by trees with parking on the right. Approach/putt has a low canopy shot on the left,a good chance of a roller. #2 425' Par 4 more open fairway,up slope drive with the fairway sloping on both sides. Roll-a-way on the right will go in the street. #3 255' Par 3 The flatest fairway with it having a treeline in the middle you thrown thru or around with the target between two short,wide trees waiting to knock your disc down. Look for a directional Sign for #4 tee. #4 200' Par 3 Open hyzer blind shot...Ace run! #5 200' Par 3 Open Straight shot with the target over the ridge in front of the large tree. #6 410' Par 4 With a mando uphill drive with scattered mature trees and roller possibilities. Mando drive left due to #7 basket placement. #7 250' Par 3 Downhill shot with a more open shot on the left....roller possibility. #8 205' Par 3 Uphill with mature trees about half way with long out reaching branches forcing low canopy throws all the way up. #9 400' Par 3 Bomber hole! Open Downhill drive with the target to the right of the stage....don't over throw or your in the street!....another roller?

•As stated on the #1 tee sign "course closed during home football games and activities at the performing arts stage".... O.K. MAYBE you could play #3?4,5,6. •no water holes •It's not 18 •no beer cart, but you are on a college campus so someone may offer you one!?

If you use the parking lot on the hill use #9 as #1. Port-a-let in the parking lot with trash cans. Course is new so watch for runners using the hill.

-On a college campus.
-Mature Trees
-Great Signs
-Great Baskets
-Course Navigates Very Well

-Its new, so people are still adjusting to it. (Should be fine in the future)
-Some of the holes play downhill close to a busy road.

This course was brilliant for a beginner course. There will most likely never be a PDGA tournament on this course but it is an awesome way to spread the game of disc golf. College kids love frisbees. There is a 400ft down hill shot, it is a great hole.
