Pros:
September 14, 2018. The disc golf course in Recreation Park has really been updated by the parks and recreation department. 18 cement tee pads have been placed for the regular tees. The short tees are marked by white pavers and the long tees are marked by blue pavers and have painted numbers making them easier to locate. Red flags now fly on the baskets making them easier to see and adding a colorful and festive look to the course. The trees have been trimmed higher making the course fairer to play. A practice basket has been added near the first tee. In my opinion Recreation Park is the best 18 hole course between Toledo and Ft. Wayne. Leagues play on Friday evening, Sunday at 11, and Wednesday at 1:30. Come join the fun.
Cons:
Other park activities may occasionally cause challenges in playing a hole or two.

Pros:
Great use of trees and basket placement .
Long wooded holes that require good shot placement over bombing it .
Hole six is so beautiful ,the tee shot is though pines and require a low control shot and good placement ,the hole is 598' so you have to mentally plan every shot to score well on this hole .
There's also two sets of tees for each hole ,as for now the second set are only stakes in the ground painted orange we plan on putting a tee for them when we can ,the pro tees play much tougher than the short play much longer and makes every hole a little different from the short tees
All the holes are away from the soccer fields and walking paths and have well placed mandos to keep disc out of these areas .
a few holes have a great risk reward to them ,like 5 it's a short 198' hole and has o.b 50 feet behind it ,so if you run at it to aggressively you risk o.b
Every hole is well thought out and you can tell the designers put a lot of time in the placements .

Cons:
some fairways and a really close and if you have a bad drive you may land into another fairway .
only natural tee's for now ,the park board plans on cement tees after we convert to 18 in the spring and when the funding permits .
It's only nine holes till spring 2011

Other Thoughts:
Great course and soon to be better as soon as it gets nine more holes .
Improved in everywhere it will challenge the novice that plays by the pars which were set so the course isn't overly hard ,are the seasoned player who's been playing for years
