Ball golf converted to disc golf 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 18, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

It's a ball course converted to disc golf, which gave it a unique and pretty neat feel. Most of the baskets were nestled into some trees or at least had you going through or around trees to get near it. Clearly marked mandatories that added some good obstacles and challenge to the course. Good variety of long and short holes and direction too (curving left and right).

Cons:

Some of the tees and pins are a bit close to each other, which caused some confusion at times, even though I brought a map. The map should two pin locations for all 18 holes, but I don't know if or how often they are moved. A nice map at the entrance and an indicator to tell you the current pin positions would really improve the experience.

Hole 11 is a bit odd and doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the course. It's really short, through a narrow gap and then through a fence. I felt like I was going into somebody's back yard.

It's a relatively flat course, but I think they did a good job utilizing the elevation change they did have.

Other Thoughts:

Overall I had a great time at this course. Took me a little over an hour to play a round and the locals were helpful in giving directions, letting me play through, and even helping me dislodge a treed disc once.

I visit this area somewhat frequently and plan on playing here again. Fun technical course.

Superb course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 8, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Really good rubbery tees. Variety in length of holes and trees. Variety of shots required. It's built on a ball golf course so the grass is really well kept. Variety of curved and straight holes. Nice vibrant Mach X baskets. Wood blocks at each tee with the hole number on it.

Cons:

No hole signs. I'm personally not to fond of water although it doesn't really come into play. (I mean who wants a lost disc). Hole 8 and 9 have the same location for a tee.

Other Thoughts:

It's a really nice young disc golf course. I would like to see the old golf pro shop turned into a disc golf pro shop. Holes 1 curves way right. Hole 10's basket is long and just past the trees on the right. Since I also play ball golf this was a really cool course.
