Functional, without the "Fun"

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 19, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

+ Nine in a flat, open park with small poured tees, old DisCatchers and no signage


Cons:

- The layout is full of "tweener" length par 3's: mostly around 400', with one that reaches 473'. Although there's relatively little trouble other than a cornfield bordering a few holes, the lengths make this course unsuitable for beginners


- This is a safety disaster. Multiple holes run parallel or cross busy paved walking paths and sidewalks (just glance through the photos, and look for walking paths). Several holes play across or near ballfields. Other holes cross open fields that are used for picnics and play


- There's tape on the basket spokes, but with no signage the flush concrete tees are difficult to spot. The flow of the middle holes is broken up by park buildings, driveways and playing fields - so expect to wander around a bit (even with uDisc GPS)


- The walk back to the main parking lot is at least a quarter mile, plenty of time to reflect on the choice you made to play here.


Other Thoughts:

~ I can't think of who would enjoy this course. It's way too long for beginners, the wide open landscape provides no protection from strong gusty winds or the hot summer sun. You have to be constantly on guard against throwing at walkers, and several holes are unusable if there's baseball or football being played.


~ 9 baskets with actual tees earns a 1.0 rating from me; it's functional, but without the "fun"
