Par 3 Ball Golf Course Makes For OK Disc Golf Course 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Mar 3, 2019 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

The course shares space with a "par three" ball golf course. There is a clubhouse with discs to rent and they probably will have discs for sale in the future. Get the map and scorecard when you pay ($6.00 per person plus extra for a cart). We easily walked the course but the carts would be welcomed in the summertime. Nicely concreted in brick tees (see cons) and shiny new machV baskets (one each per hole). There is a good mix of short to mid-length holes with enough obstacles to force a little shot shaping and several fair water holes towards the end. The course is fun enough to be entertaining and is more open than most of the other area courses so it offers a little different type of experience.

Cons:

Unfortunately, there are a few concerns. The brick tees, although very nice are a little on the small side. There are no tee signs at all, but the scorecards have a very useful map and hole lengths. No hole numbers on the baskets either, which could help in a couple of areas. The course could be considered a little vanilla compared to the other nearby courses. Also, the cost could be a negative to thrifty minded disc golfers who are used to playing for free.

Other Thoughts:

So what we have here is an ok disc golf course that makes the best of the ball golf course that it resides on. Also, the sand trap rakes make great golf disc retrievers if you don't go too far into the water hazards. And of course: Sky Pilots Rule! And I had great fun trying to see how many golf balls I could hide in one of my cardmates bags before he noticed! (It was around 10. I'm guessing all the balls on the course came from stray shots from the driving range).
