Dust, Trees and Fun 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 20, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

Moderately challenging hole layout with enough space between the trees - either natural or cut - to demand reasonably accurate shots without random "pachinko" holes. Suitable for all abilities, except possibly bit rough for first-timers. Generally woods are open enough that errant discs can be found.

Cons:

Very dusty and rocky with lots of scattered broken tree branches makes for tricky footing. Despite a fair amount of elevation differential, not many elevated tees (most holes parallel a ridge or are in fairly flat areas). Had to hunt for a couple of holes.

Other Thoughts:

Spotter would have been helpful on a couple of holes where tee shot disappears behind trees (was alone, spent some time hunting but found them all). Launching off elevated #8 tee across a large open area (birdie!) was a blast after many tight holes constrained by trees.This is a fun course, about the right length considering the need to navigate rough ground.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 24, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

there are arrows telling you were the tee is if it is hard to find
there are signs at the tee telling you were the basket is
the baskets are really nice, they catch the disc if it hits the chains
there are short and long holes
there are up and down hill holes

Cons:

there are lots of places were you need a spotter or you will most likely lose your disc
there is really bad footing
the tees are dirt tee pads

lots of trees and elevation 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 25, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Great baskets, signs were easy to find. Arrows were very helpful. Very creative art work around the course. Great use of down trees for benches. Nice long holes, not many short easy birdies. Hole 18 is set up on a tier of logs and super fun last hole. Worth driving to play this course. Friendly staff.

Cons:

Signs were beginning to fade and measurements seemed off. Parking is kind of a free for all, just don't park where you block the road is what we were told.

Other Thoughts:

I would definitely play this course again. Maybe not the best course for beginners but discs were pretty easy to find.

Dust off your Gaiters it's time for fun 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Aug 4, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

You can use your wide variety of Disc Golf skills on this course. Our group of 3 used backhand and forehand (both heizer and anheizer), tomahawk, thumber, turbo-putt, roller, and more. Trails built into hillsides of this rugged course. Benches being installed. Water fountain and restroom at T-8 then you pass by again mid-fairway for hole 12. Uphill, downhill, multiple trees. Good finish with holes 15-18 not super long but challenging. Great risk vs reward. Somewhat forested-somewhat logged setting. Good workout. 1.5 miles of dirt road off highway. Disc golf friendly. Well marked, score cards, map and pencil available at check in.The place was logged in 2016/2017 so it should not be logged for 20 years or so I am guessing and the cedar trees are popping up, so it has potential to grow back and be quite lush for many years. Warm up basket,

Cons:

The course was logged in 2016-2017 since I played this last year so there are less trees, more fallen timber and dust, less shade, and the footing is rougher, so I downgraded it to a 3.5. The dirt tees are a bit bumpy in places and can wear you down. Still very dusty/dirty. Pay to play (but worth every penny). Hole 7-8 and 16-17 have RV sites nearby or other risk of hitting something. Not a lot of parking. Course has been or being logged in places, slash piles and logs to climb over.

Other Thoughts:

Camping nearby I have played this course as my main recreation for the camping trip and it holds up for many days of challenge and fun. the recent logging has taken away some of the equalizing that trees bring, still challenging, fun , exercise, check it out!

Diamond in the rough 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 10, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

I love the cookie sheet tee signs.
Most holes have "next tee" signs.
Primitive feel to the course, the rough is rough --not a lot of undergrowth, but a lot of downed trees.
Lots of uphill/downhill shots.
Decent fairways, with tight windows.

Cons:

Dirt tee pads are rough, but they feel appropriate for this course.

Other Thoughts:

Drove up from Sonora early Sunday morning. Had the whole course to myself. Beautiful wooded setting, sunshine, what else could you want? Got an awesome breakfast at Alicia's Sugar Shack just before the course in Twain Harte. Well worth the trip, wish I could have played a couple of more time.
If you haven't played at 4,800 feet above sea level, bring your understable discs!

Dusty but fun! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 16, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

The holes were challenging and varied in length, openness, and turn. Some were short and technical with loads of trees to navigate. Others were long and open. There were an equal number that played to both forehand and backhand throws.

Cons:

Very dusty everywhere. The dust will stick with you, so plan on showering after your round. Some of the tees weren't smooth, so there was a danger of rolling your ankle if you stepped wrong. Also, since the signage is paper plates, sometimes it wasn't clear where to go.

Brand Spankin' New Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 8, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Beautiful location. You have to see the elevated basket on hole 18. Super nice people at the camp and the local disc golfers.

Cons:

Several tight holes are well protected by trees make for a tough par. Might be a little bit difficult for first time disc golfers.

Other Thoughts:

Course is built surrounding the Odd Fellow's Three Links Camp on Hwy 108 outside of Mi-Wuk Village. Took about 2 hours to get in 18 holes. Tee boxes are currently marked with temporary numbers and pink landscape ground flags. Definitely need some good hiking shoes to cover the trails. A lot of shots off the tee are going to hit trees, however there are often safe areas to shoot for. I absolutely loved hole 18 with the elevated basket feature.
