Pros:

+Nice concrete pads that are in good shape, aim the right way, have a good surface and are appropriate size.
+Nice Innova baskets that are easy to see.
+Great course flow. Easy to find next tee and basket.
+Very nice park in very rural SD. I wasn't expecting too much of this course with no reviews but I was pleasantly surprised. The park has multiple benches, shelters, playgrounds, a small skatepark, a track, a walking path, a bridge that leads to the downtown area, and more.
+Used the little elevation that was there well. 3 and 5 had raised baskets that increased the quality on those holes.
+A fair amount of trees on the course. All holes had a solid and fair line to them without being too open.
+Turtle Creek flows around the course but not too close. Unlikely to toss a disc in there.
+Course is fairly protected from the wind unlike a lot of courses around this state.
+Tees are marked with number.
+Great distance for a city park 9 hole. None of the holes were easy birdies. Once you learn the lines, some of them might get easier but in two quick rounds, it wasn't the easiest course. None of the holes were crazy long. I would guess that they all were in the 270'-420' range.

Cons:

-The main con to this course would be that this park isn't super big but has a lot crammed into it. The walking path runs right next to the course a lot of the time and you will have to throw across it a few times. Be careful to make sure there aren't any walkers, runners, cyclists, etc on the path before you throw. Same thing with any of the other park activities that can come into play when throwing. I played in December during the week and saw no one but it could be busier during other times of the year/week.
-No signage. Not the biggest deal but it would be nice to know how far you are throwing. Course is pretty easy to follow and all the baskets were fairly visible off the tee.

Other Thoughts:

+Overall this course had a high fun factor. If I was ever in Redfield, I would definitely play again.
+Best holes: 2,3,5. 2 is a challenging moderately wooded hole that it would feel really good to birdie but an early tree hit could easily knock you out of a par. 3 is a hole that you could ace run if you have a decent arm but you might blow by the raised basket big time if you're not careful. 5 throws to a bank by the bridge. It has a low ceiling near the basket and the river behind.
+Worst holes: 1 + 9. 1 doesn't have a great line. Not unfair but still a little more luck involved than I would like. 9 is probably the longest hole on the course but is pretty open and flat. Even these holes weren't too bad.
+Worth a stop here if you ever end up in Redfield for pheasant hunting or whatever else!
