-discatchers and tee signs (hole number, distance, par, no map) in good condition
-natural tees are mostly level and in reasonable condition
-dedicated parking for disc golf (north lot)
-kiosk with a course map next to parking and hole 1, basket 9 close to parking lot also
-excellent bridge for crossing the creek (when water is present)
-some trees come into play throughout the course, holes 6 & 7 have about 6-8' of elevation change

-the natural tees have maintained their condition for quite awhile (evidence of the low traffic) but some of them are about to start getting to that point...
-small park with potential for lots of pedestrian interferences
-walking path in play on holes 1, 2, 3, 9
-holes 6 & 9 throw over the park road
-hole 8 plays around a basketball court
-hole 9 is long (510') just to get back to the parking lot
-current construction (March 2024) is renovating the park, looks like changes are coming but the course is still totally intact

Olney is a small town with a small park containing a small disc golf course. The park is nearly entirely flat with some trees and a lot of other park uses and users present. The course meanders across the area north of the creek that bisects the park and then makes a loop around the area south of the creek. The north area has a walking path making a loop and the south area has a circular park road, basketball court, pool area, playground, pavilions, etc. A good portion of these things come into play on various holes so you definitely need to share the space.

The basic infrastructure is pretty good: basic tee signs and kiosk course map aid navigation, baskets and natural tees in decent condition. The holes are mostly pitch and putt length, from around 200' to 270'. There is typically one tree to beat in the fairway or a tree giving you a low ceiling off the tee but there is not a lot of shot shaping required. The wind is a factor. You cross the creek (when present) on holes 4 and 9. Basket 5 and tee 6 sit around 6'-8' higher than the rest of the park in the southwest corner, next to the road.

Most of the course avoids the other major park activities except for the last two holes. Hole 8 unnecessarily throws around the basketball court and hole 9 has a bunch of stuff between tee and basket depending on which route is taken. There are safe ways to play them and it won't matter much if nobody is there but it's not good design.

The course is definitely for locals and baggers only. Don't go out of your way and considering heading to Wichita Falls instead. If I ever come back, it will just be to see what happens to the course after the construction is done.
