Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jun 27, 2009 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This course used to have really neat wood tee signs, which consisted of an entire course map, with nails marking your current tee and pin. Sadly, all of these placards, proclaiming "DISK GOLF," are gone, and even some of the posts are gone, making tees scarce. The designers fit a nifty little course in a small area. I really enjoy most of the holes, though they aren't terribly demanding. Highlights: hole 6 plays onto the fractured remains of a putt-putt golf course. Hole 9 is painfully long, and the initial uphill drive is a serious challenge.

Cons:

I give this course a 2.0, because it's a fun 9, but it's not very golfer-friendly. Campus construction is taking away the course, bit-by-bit, and no one seems to care. This is a 9 hole course with 7.5 pins and 7 tees. Pin 9 is just a stick with no basket, Tees 1 and 8 are gone (make your own!), Pin 7 is gone (but you can play to Pin 5).

Other Thoughts:

This course is very near my home, so I use it as my own little practice ground. After going there on and off for years, and driving past it daily, I just saw other golfers there for the first time this summer. I hope more people give it a chance, but I'm afraid it's going to slowly fade unless someone on campus revives it.
