- You will have to use every shot you know, and some you've only heard of.
- Manicured, perfectly designed fairways
- Carefully thought out greens
- The pro shop and snack stop

- The tee signs can be misleading and a little vague if you don't have perfect spacial awareness and the ability to figure out footage by eye.
- The addition of the falcon redesigned some of the better holes.

Simply epic. Every hole is a completely new experience and usually very different from the hole before it. Never did the course seem repetitive. The longer holes were truly herculean experiences, forcing you to shoot for distance while keeping the next shot at the forefront of your mind. The winding river/stream that meanders through the course comes into play over and over again when you least expect it and adds an element of difficulty that marks this as a true professional course. The course par is actually quite generous when it comes down to it, so newer players can still have a fun time and feel good about a decent round on the pro course. Of course, a pro could probably play the course as all par 3s in which case the course would provide a mighty challenge. While the tee signs were a little vague for me, I had previously rated this a 5, but the falcon redesign edged it down a bit, as did playing Maple Hill. Still, the complex as a whole has a fantastic atmosphere that keeps it in my top 3 courses. The second you arrive and see the large basket fountain, you know that this is a haven devoted to the sport. Once inside, the girl at the counter gave us a breakdown of the courses and handed us scorecards. She also pointed out the massive pro shop and snacks that are available. You're surrounded with disc golfers of all levels and nobody looks at you odd if you mention "hyzering a flick" or "bombing a katana". Playing a park course and getting weird looks from joggers and elderly women walking poodles just doesn't feel the same.
Overall, a beautiful course and disc golf compound that really showcases everything that's right with Disc Golf in New England.

On same site with another 18=hole course, 9=starter course, and well-stocked clubhouse.

Signs showed multiple pin positions per hole, but no indication of current location of the basket.

Much tougher, somewhat rougher, and longer than the co-located Hawk, each hole on the Eagle presents multiple challenges needing to be conquered in order to score well. Practically every hole will have some type of elevation change: up, down, up-n-over, across valley, cross-slope - something. Fairways vary in width - from tight on the few short holes to wide-open #14. While many of the fairways through the trees appear quite generous, they also tend to be quite long, requiring either a dead-straight throw or an elongated-S - drift too far to the side, and a tree will set your disc down early. Turns vary from extremely sharp to quite subtle,, typically occurring at the midpoint of the hole, or continuous/sweeping, again, of various degree. Many of the basket positions are challenging, either partially guarded by trees, or with the gently-flowing stream lurking nearby, or steep drop-offs - the 40' drop inches away from basket-11 was a bit extreme. With 1/3rd of the holes over 500', and being much more difficult than simple wide-open bombs, there are several legitimate >par=3 holes to play.

Excellent course in-and-of-itself, moreso with the Hawk, beginner-friendly Owl, and the on-site pro shop. The greater Augusta-area has a number of quality courses - think Maine for your next roadtrip!

The Eagle at Sabattus Disc Golf is one of the most professionally designed, built, and maintained courses that I've ever played. From start to finish, everything is top notch. The course has a great layout that will require every throw you have on a mix of L, R (both subtle and extreme), and straight fairways. There is exceptional use of trees, obstacles, elevation, and water. There are numerous densely-wooded, challenging fairways including a few ace runs and a few grip n' rip fairways. Exceptional holes include:

Hole 8 - Amazing horseshoe-shaped fairway that wraps around a pond with two possible routes. The obvious route around the pond (on the fairway) requires accuracy to minimize throws and keep an errant throw from dropping into the pond. The "shortcut" indicated on the tee sign is just as precarious as a carefully-placed drive is needed to get into a position to cross the safely pond. Classic risk vs. reward.

Hole 10 - A very tricky zig-zag fairway that is both tight and long as it stretches between 587-641', depending on the basket. While not excessively punishing, any drive that is off the mark will require at least an extra throw just to get back on track and could quickly lead to many throws over par.

Hole 11 - Straight-forward wooded tee-off that approaches into an empty gravel pit. The basket sits atop a steep embankment, requiring a spot-on upshot. Any overthrown putts made from the top of the hill risk a demoralizing roll back into the gravel pit. From start to finish, this hole keeps you on your toes.

Hole 14 - A fairly standard wide-open field with an unguarded basket at the end. What makes this hole noteworthy are the monolithic stones that dot the fairway and the old farm equipment that is carefully placed on the periphery. The hole isn't so much challenging as it is pleasing to the eye (which is probably why it's the first hole you see as you drive into the course)

Several of the holes featured multiple baskets.

The tee signs at the Eagle were exceptionally detailed and displayed fairways, major obstacles, distance, par, and basket location(s). In addition to tee signs, the course had plenty of signage directing players to the baskets and toward the next tees.

The course itself was meticulously maintained. The concrete tees and bridges were in fantastic shape, as were the baskets. Garbage cans, picnic tables, and butt buckets available on nearly all the tees. The fairways and paths were all clear and wooded lanes consisted of gravel, mulch, or wood chips. Surrounding many of the baskets were wood chip greens. There was very little underbrush and shule, reducing the possibility of a lost disc and making the course more aesthetically pleasing. All things considered, this is some of the finest wooded disc golf available.

There are very few cons to the Eagle. The main issues were related to layout and fairway navigation. There was a confusing layout on a few holes. Hole 3 was an example where the fairway wasn't very obvious and the signage (while still exceptional) didn't do the best job of guiding players down the embankment at the left edge of the field. Additionally, there were multiple baskets shown on many tee signs, but only a few holes actually had multiple baskets installed which caused some confusion when teeing off or approaching and the pin wasn't where it was expected to be.

While minor, the red baskets blended into the wooded background and made identifying the target difficult.

The Eagle is very challenging but fair. The course is designed for accurate throws but isn't overly punishing when discs go astray.

When comparing the Eagle to the other courses at Sabattus Disc Golf (although this had no impact on my rating), this course had tighter and more unique fairways and throwing lines than the Hawk. The Eagle was also much longer and geared much more toward professionals and had a lot more variety than the Owl.

Sabattus, ME isn't exactly in the thick of things, but Sabattus Disc Golf is well worth the trip and I'd recommend it to anyone and everyone that is considering a disc golf trip to Maine. I wish more courses were modeled after the disc golf complex at Sabattus.

most challenging, well maintained great design

worst rec players in state, club house will send out groups of 8 or 9 out on pro coarse, have thrown down on disc thieves here, there are 4 layouts for this coarse, been in all long for 2 years

lived in sabattus when this was made, loved it! lack of golf eddict and general attitude of the staff is that of a movie theather or other general entertainment sevice. Had pros, players coarses, what happened

This place has everything. There are three courses here. Each with different skill levels. Eagle is the longest. Driving "Range" concrete tee pads with a net you thrown into to get warmed up, great putting green, awesome club house with discs, drinks and a very helpful staff. 5 buck for a round but WELL WELL worth it. Great sinage and hole layouts, easy to navigate, concrete tee pads on every hole. Awesome up keep on the course with senic water holes tight and open fairways. Nice par threes with a few true par 5's. This place has everything!

I have no cons to place here except it will be busy so you might have to wait at a few holes... I dont really count this a con since it means our sport is growing.

Like I said, this place has it all! A very "professional" place with people working and taking care of the courses that care about the sport. They even have a 15' tall working fountian in shape of a basket when you enter this dedicated disc golf park. I have played a lot of courses around the country and this place is at the very top of my list. You need your whole bag of disc for this course, and a camera because when your not throwing you will be walking around in awe and wanting to capture it awesomeness'. It is my only 5 star rating!

Awesome challenges, No 2 holes are alike, The 14th hole provides a tough challenge of a par 5 with great driving potential

Some holes are right next to streams,
