Not for us 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Sep 9, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

*The course fills a specific need that is often neglected. I have never seen a course that caters so exclusively to beginners as this one. For kids and for people picking up a disc for the first time, the hole difficulty is appropriate and par is reasonable.
*Course is in good shape. The missing basket has been replaced and there are no weeds, thistles, etc. No one will ever lose a disc here.

Cons:

Navigation was a little tricky, and would have been a problem if the course wasn't so small. The baskets for 4 and 9 are literally 30' from one another, and signs aren't much help.

Other Thoughts:

Are you a serious enough disc golfer that you use the internet to research courses before you play them? (and yes, you obviously are if you're reading this) if so, this course has nothing to offer you.

I don't want to be too hard on Quarry Ridge, because it's not that the course is bad...it's just not for us. Other reviews have noted that the holes are short, but simply calling them "short" is an understatement. For instance, on one hole I couldn't help but laugh after I caught myself intensely deliberating whether I should use a regular putting motion for my tee shot, or if I needed to jump putt to get a little extra distance.

In summary: not a bad course, but not one worth traveling to play.
