Reviewed: Played on:Dec 2, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

- navigation of the course is relatively easy
- good amount of elavation change to make the course a little interesting
- decent variety of shot distances but mostly pretty short

Cons:

- baskets are bit beat up
- gravel tee pads but they aren't bad
- tons of tall grass throughout the course
- most of the shots are wide open and boring

Other Thoughts:

Not the greatest piece of land for disc golf. All the tall grass kind of ruins any kind of decent course that could be here.

Holy Grass 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 19, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

I thought for a place like this the tee pads were great. They were long gravel tee pads that very quite substantial in size and material.

Perhaps I am a bit biased, being from Houston, but I could look pass the lack of obstacles to play up and down a hill like this course had. Hole #5 played about 80' higher than the tee pad was. And #6 and #7 played down the hill.

The course has one long hole, #9, and a few other holes of decent length. If you struggle shooting under par than this is the course for you. Some holes are very short that can be driven at with a midrange and putter easily.

Baskets are all DisCatchers and there was a practice basket; all are in great shape. There are tee signs with hole length which makes this course already that much better than North Midway or Louisville Park.

Cons:

The title of this review is Holy Grass because holy smokes the grass here is long. A mower obviously comes in and mows a small trail from the tee pad to the basket but landing on the small trail is quite difficult. The grass that is not on the trail is easily knee to thigh high. It is a good thing that the course is shorter than most because it is easy to lose track of the discs.

Like others have said there are no obstacles other than a few trees on hole 9.

The course has an actual walking trail that goes throughout the course. It is quite possible you may need to wait at a few holes for people with dogs can walk by.

I am pretty sure I shot at the wrong basket at Hole #9. The baskets are not numbered and the practice basket is 15 or so feet away from one another.

Other Thoughts:

This course is much better than North Midway or Louisville and if there were more obstacles than it could potentially be better than Interlocken Park. This course was a pleasant surprise and I would not mind playing this one again.

9 cheap and easy holes! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 23, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

-You can get out and play 9 wide open holes, thus allowing you to work on various shots.
-The views looking back at the flatirons are crazy beautiful.
-Was not busy when I was there.
-Nice baskets
-You could throw from more interesting

Cons:

-Wide open, no trees, or obstacles what so ever, only on a super errand shot.
-Not really any challenge
-Totally exposed to the wind

Other Thoughts:

I wanted to play something new, and this course satisfied that. The holes were straight forward. If you hit your shot then you parked the hole. I consider this more of a practice facility than a course, but still fun and worth it to dial in your game.

Basic High Prairie Desert Disc Golf 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 27, 2011 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Nine holes laid out to sort of resemble a regular golf course in a field of dry brush. The longest tee boxes I've ever seen in my life. Easy to navigate with nice signs at each tee box. Holes 5 and 8 have some elevation change. Different lengths on the holes. Fairways are mowed into the ground. A practice basket is provided next to tee #1.

Cons:

Not a single tree or bush to challenge you. Straight shooting is the name of the game here. A fair amount of dog waste peppering the course. You might want to bring hand sanitizer just in case.

Other Thoughts:

A good place to try out your straight game. Shooting into the brush on the sides of the fairways does make it a wee bit more challenging. Tee #1 is near the wood bridge you cross from the parking lot.
