Awesome Practice Play Course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 31, 2021 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

- Open clean fairways
- Easy to see baskets
- Nice wide playable fairways with few obstacles for beginners
- No water hazards for beginners to lose discs in

Cons:

- Maybe not the best course if you are looking for a big challenge
- Tee pads are not permanent and can get slippery if you are not wearing the correct footwear.
- Hole 5 is a bit confusing if you run the course as laid out. Additionally, there is no course sign for Hole 5. The basket is easy to locate so no worries there.
- (Not really a con ;) ) There are a few OB's that can be a challenge to new players with erratic throws i.e. this guy
- Hole 7 requires "threading" the needle which is very intimidating when starting out as a new play
- Public lounges in the shade on some of the holes which makes throwing interesting to say the least.
- On days that grounds maintenance is out, Hole 10 is impossible to drive from the tee. Don't ask the crew to move a machine if they are on "siesta"!

Other Thoughts:

I love taking my little dude out to this course for a round since he is still starting out. I have been using this course to test new discs that I have added to my bag. Hole 7 can be frustrating to "threaad the needle" but does make for a really interesting challenge. this hole might be one of those holes you return to and just practice throwing multiple times. I remember doing this on a course in the Midwest way back in the day when I first started playing disc.

I have heard people say that you need to watch out for other park users. I agree that other park users can be an issue if you are not paying attention. On that note, courtesy comes into play here. When playing this course, if I see someone on the sidewalk near one of the holes, I wait for them to pass, and then throw. On holes where residents of the neighborhood are lounging, I have found the best thing to do is ask them nicely to move. For instance, there were two young ladies on a blanket in the shade. I went up to them and asked nicely if they were willing to move as I have a tendency to hit whatever I last looked at. They smiled, gathered their stuff up and moved. After I played through I told them they could go back. They thanked me and returned to their spot.

Since this is in a residential neighborhood, I do my best to respect those that live there. This is a courtesy the residents deserve for allowing non-residents of the neighborhood to play the course. Keep it on the up and up and this course will stay open to the public.

Fun but crowed 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 3, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

This was a really fun course. The use of the park was great. The trees that are in the park were used for perfectly. The signs at each tee off were great. Many of the hole are good for a 2 throw hole. I really like the use of OB and makes what a simple hole more difficult. Real great course if distance is not your thing.

Cons:

Their were no Tee Pads just used the grass next to the sign. When i played their were lots of people around the part. Their was football practice going on, teens in hammock right next to the chains. Had to skip and or change throw for those holes.

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 15, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

- beautiful park and facility
- new patriot baskets
- new tee signs with all the info you could want
- a variety of shots to throw to hit the different lines
- decent amount of trees to add some challenge
- fairly quick play and easy to access course

Cons:

- no permanent tee pads right now, just grass and dirt
- some holes it's not even clear exactly where to throw from, so I just threw from near the tee sign
- a shorter beginner course
- seems like a park that could get real busy and make some holes unplayable or cause some players to injury pedestrians

Other Thoughts:

A really beautiful area and a fun short course. But maybe a couple holes might need to be changed for safety purposes.

Decent park course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 31, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

Brand new baskets, clean park setting. Some challenging shots through tunnels & around obstacles.

Cons:

Holes relatively short. Lots of park patrons could potentially get in the way.

Other Thoughts:

Not a bad new course, good pitch and putt design. Beginner friendly.
