Great Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 6, 2014 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Multiple tees and pin locations, great variety, mixed terrain, great scenery, friendly staff, challenging course for all skill levels.

Cons:

There really aren't any cons considering the course is still fairly new and still being completed. The only cons I can think of would be that the tee pads aren't finished on a few holes and steps could be added to the hills on holes 1 & 2, but as I mentioned, the course is still growing and it takes a lot of time and money to complete, but the course is still playable.

Other Thoughts:

I love playing this course and consider it my home course even though I have 1 or 2 that are closer to my home. The landscape and atmosphere is like no course I've played before and that makes it much more fun for me, personally. This course has made my game progress so quickly from playing it so much. It forces you to be more accurate on not only your drives, but even your mid game and putting as well. On most holes if you throw just a little off the fairway, your disc will end up in tall weeds or even worse, hit a tree and deflect off into the woods. It also forces you to keep your composure more than on more open courses because you can get into trouble fairly easily. I've played this course close to 50+ times since I started a year ago, and it's hands down my favorite course. I strongly encourage anyone looking to hone their accuracy and technical shots to go out and play this course a few times, you won't be disappointed. The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is simply because the course isn't complete yet, but even now has the potential to be one of the best courses in the area and will be even better once complete.

A few things that I think would make the course a little easier for new players to navigate the course would be to have bricks with arrows or signs added by the baskets to help direct unfamiliar players to the next tee pads.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 17, 2014 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

A variety of shots required
Doesn't require a long arm to do well.
Mostly in the shade.
Very well maintained.
Two tee boxes really change up the course and make it a lot of fun to play.

Cons:

Playing it for the first time can be difficult to find the pin locations.
Extremely new and more tee pads are poured everytime I have played it.

Other Thoughts:

I love this course, wish it was a little closer to me and I would play it more. Very well maintained. If you are going through this area, def. a must play course.

Finesse at it's best 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 11, 2014 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Hiking while playing
Challenging
Park staff are super nice
Park supervisor rocks and is a fellow disc golfer
Have a mini shop in the entrance gate building
Tees for women and men

Cons:

Not much to say about the cons...there is water on one of the holes so you risk losing a disc but if you don't go for power, you got this!
It's not a course for the weak of heart but it is a course for Pro's looking to hone in on their finesse shots. Women/juniors may get discouraged due to the trees however the shorter tees and the ability to finesse really makes this course a must play for me!!!

Other Thoughts:

I love the park. I love the course. It is very challenging which makes it a must to check out on your disc golf road trips. Have fun and play on!!
