- very nice baskets in good repair
- decent signage in good shape
- next tee sign for 5
- some garbage cans
- well maintained, beautiful park
- variety of shots with surprising number of obstacles for a city park
- attempt to incorporate minimal water hazards

- dirt tees with timber borders had very deep ruts and could get very muddy
- some definite safety issues in multi use park, especially on 2, 6, 7 and 9 (throwing near walking path)
- limited other amenities such as park benches on course (however, plenty on walking paths)
- virtually no elevation change

Shadow Creek DGC in Proksa Park is a surprisingly fun little 9 hole course. A few of the holes have surprising distance for such a small area, and there are numerous natural obstacles in this well groomed park. I had a really enjoyable time and would come back if I lived nearby.

The biggest con here is safety. As is typical of suburban parks, it is multi use, and there is baseball, walkers, playground, etc. In addition, if the course were busy some holes could interfere a bit. I was the only one there while playing.

3 and 4 try to incorporate a bit of water hazard, although in December when I was there it was only a dry creek bed. There is no elevation change, but good shot placement is still forced with all of the varied vegetation.

The park was very well kept and clearly has been cared for by the community. It was nice to see no trash around. The only other real con here is the tees. Concrete would be a huge upgrade, as the dirt tees are very rutted out and don't make multi step drive approaches very easy.

This course isn't going to challenge advanced players too much, but I think it's worth checking out for a fun, quick round. It only took me about 30 minutes. Not the street sweeping restrictions on Wisconsin on Tuesdays and Wednesdays as noted in the course info.

Shadow creek at Proksa Park is a shorter beginner friendly course that plays around the walking paths, playground, and baseball fields of the park. A small creek and pond comes into play on 3 or 4 holes. Hole number 3 best utilizes this water as it runs next to the fairway on the left and lurks just a few feet behind the basket. A couple others have water carries, but only the extreme newbie or child will risk having to fish out a wet disc. I found most of the holes to be well thought out fairways and pin placements for the small amount of room allowed. There are several tight windows to hit, and a few holes with low ceilings to add challenge.

The tee boxes are grass right now and have distances stamped or stickered on the front of the box.

the biggest con this course has going against it is the small amount of space there is in this multi use park for disc golf. Most holes are throwing either directly along, or right at the walking path that winds through the park. On a nice day in the spring/summer/ fall this course could be frustrating if there are lots of other people in the park. I happened to go in January, so not a big deal at all that day.

This is one of those short Chicago suburb 9 hole city courses that is nice, and if I lived in the neighborhood I would play all the time for a quick round, but its simply not worth the 20 minute drive when much better courses are nearby.

Sets up pretty nice for a safari round too after a round or two through.
