Tyler East offers excellent variety throughout all 18 holes. Though it's one of the oldest courses in PA, it still beats most of them by a mile for variations in hole configurations. It requires a great mix of shots throughout the round. It's the kind of course where you have to think before you play and decide what discs you want in your bag for different holes you will encounter.

Shots Needed -
Successful rounds can include any or all of the following: long-distance open field backhands, wooded straight midranges, many forehand opportunities, tunnel shots and low ceilings in the woods, open air field throws or rollers, water OB, high grass OB, uphill, downhill, blind drives, many unusual greens and putting looks, and multiple legit par 4's and par 5's.

Hole Variety -
Most holes have two tee pads with different looks, not always just long/short versions of the same shot. Every hole has three pin positions (A/B/C) of different lengths and challenges. They may all be par 3 or one of each par 3,4,5. The club moves the pin positions on a regular basis, about once a month, so every trip to the course presents a new layout. If you're local, you get to play them all and it never gets boring, as some courses do. The tee pads are in good shape, mostly concrete and some with pavers. All are clearly defined. All have clear tee signs. Every hole has multiple "Next Tee" signs to make navigation clear throughout all 18 holes.

Obstacles - Tyler presents a common theme of pyramid log piles, beautifully arranged and placed throughout the course. They act as bunkers and add a unique challenge to the course that I've never seen on any other serious disc golf course. They don't cause too much trouble if you drive well and stay on the fairway, but they may come into play for any shanks or lies off the fairway. Knowing how to throw thumbers, tomahawks, scoobies, etc. will help.

Course Layout -
Though it runs through a public park, most of the course stays away from the pedestrian paths, which are all OB. The full course runs through holes that are wooded, half-wooded, or entirely open fields. It also crosses a small stream or two via small foot bridges. Hole 7 and 8 border a great local creek with sometimes fishermen and swimmers in the summertime. There's also plenty of up and down walking with the terrain, though nothing too severe. You can play the course with a cart. Only the transition between 7 and 8 (there are wooden steps) requires a brief carry of your cart. Hole 18 ends at the parking lot where Hole 1 begins and allows you to move to Tyler West next door if you want to play that course, which is numbered 19 to 36.

Amenities -
Tyler includes benches on every single hole. There are also these great handmade, carved tee signs. Each one has artwork on it depicting local wildlife and the hole layout in color. Tee signs also include pin position indicators since the course is always changing and could be in one of three positions. Note: For each hole, the pin is always in only one position (A, B, or C), never multiple baskets at a time on one hole. There are trashcans every 6 holes or so. There are also active, clean bathrooms throughout the park. These include stalls, sinks and hand dryers. They are between Holes 1/18 and Holes 3/4 and Holes 14/15. It's a nice thing to have on a dg course. Lastly, the local club does a great job keeping the course in good shape, in general with litter removal, course improvements, and maintenance after excessive erosion or bad storms.

Favorite holes -
Hole 1 starts the course off great with a half wooded, half open field hole (with some OB high grass). It's a nice par 3 in short A pin and a great par 4 in B or C pin. It shows the variety that is the hallmark of the whole course.
Hole 4 has an ace run A pin and two very different par 4 B and C pins, both of which require two great shots, not just a good drive. The second shot always requires touch and both have potential rollaways down a big slope that leads to OB in a big pond full of, usually, croaking frogs.
Hole 7 - fantastic view from the death putt cliffside, where the elevated C pin is.
Hole 8 runs next to a swift wide creek. A pin is in view off the tee and usually requires a death putt or big uphill putt depending on how well you hit the gap on the drive. B and C pins, both par 4 require a completely different second shot to approach well nestled pins. The B pin is by a rock wall and the C pin is down a tree-lined hallway leading to an elevated basket near the creek's edge.
Hole 9 requires a field goal straight between two trees and uphill a tiny bit to the par 3 A pin. The B pin requires a completely different shot (maybe something overhand) to a basket well defended against hyzer shots. The C pin is maybe the funnest shot on the course. It goes back down again to a beautiful little nook, just past a stream and behind a low rock wall. Depending on your lie, it can require a turnover backhand with speed, a short forehand, or even a touch putter shot, all with their own dangers. It's a great, great par 5 with a little of everything and it requires three different shots to get there.
Hole 13 - the par 5 C pin is located between to intertwined trees. It's a great look to a good long par 5 hole.

I love this course, so I don't have much to say against it, but to cover all the bases, I will mention a few things that some people have mentioned.

Pin placement - If you're not local and are only at Tyler as a visitor passing through, it kinda sucks to not get to play all the best, funnest pin positions on each hole. The pins get moved relatively often, but not all at once. So, in a given week, a local will probably only see about 4 or 5 new positions from the previous week. But all of them change over throughout the month and thus the course changes often throughout the year. If you're only here once, you're stuck with wherever the pins are. However, in addition to the regular pin changes, the club always runs one all A pin, one all B pin and one all C pin (The Yetter) tournament each year. If you check ahead of time, you can see on the clubs site and fb page where the pins are in a given week.

Pedestrians - In general, you rarely see non-disc golfers on the course, but it is a public park and occasionally you'll see a clueless hiker or runner cutting across your fairway when you're on the tee. Again, it's rare.

Distance - If you want a course that is just 450' bombs and then an open putt, that's not Tyler. Most holes at Tyler require a 325'-ish ft precision shot, or multiple control shots like that and a tough, maybe obstructed or elevated putt. You need a complete game. It's a technical course requiring a lot of experience with different shots to birdie any of the B and C pin positions. Only a few holes require huge drives (holes 16, 17 for sure. Maybe 3 and 13 as well, though those two are wooded and require great shot-shaping control).

Elevated baskets - If you don't like them, well, Tyler has a bunch. There are three pin positions on every hole (except Hole 2) for a total of 52 pin positions. I think it's 9 or 10 of them on Tyler East that are elevated, though only a few of them are in position at any time. Note: there are also two pins that are slightly lower than normal. Again, there's variety.

Difficulty - I wouldn't bring a novice player to Tyler for their first round ever. It can be a bit of a hike. And it requires sizeable walks between a few holes (from 1 to 2, from 3 to 4, from 5 to 6, to name a few) It also requires a lot of precise shots, especially in the B or C pins. However, I would highly recommend the Tyler A-Holes event, which usually brings out 180+ players, mostly newbies, for a fantastic event.

Ticks - they suck. Literally. They're everywhere and you MUST check yourself after every round. But this is true for every single course in the northeast. Every course around here has them, though Tyler isn't as bad as some places. You just can't play dg regularly without finding one on you occasionally.

My few listed Cons above are really just to find something to keep balance in the review. I really have no problem with any of these myself. But they're worth noting.

Tyler East is usually higher rated than the West and I agree, but I think they complement each other very nicely. (West is more rugged terrain, more up and down, more physical work). Tyler East is a tough course but an easier walk.

I think Tyler East is nearly perfect for a technical demanding course. And it has held up well for nearly 30 years. And it's beautiful. And full of variety and is well-maintained by the club.

When top tier pros come and play Tyler in all C pins, they usually hit somewhere between 6 and 10 under par, and that's with no lengthening or temp holes to adjust to their skills as many other course have to do. So, on a daily basis, Tyler East is a serious challenge for any experienced player. If you're lucky enough to live close, that challenge also includes a huge amount of variety and the chance to experience a different course every time out. I love it.

Handmade Wood Tee signs with painted on hole layout (each hole is named, e.g. "serenity now", that are both funny and foreshadowing the difficulty of the hole assuming you don't throw a great shot.

Concrete Tee pads

Benches to sit on for every hole, bag holders on most holes as well.

Multiple Pin locations on every hole. Every hole has an A,B,C position with A generally being the closest and easiest while the C is the farthest and most difficult. This provides and ever changing layout for the course. This also means that if you play a round in one month, you are likely to be playing a completely different layout if you come again a month later.

The Course is well maintained (especially considering there is an entire second course and the maintenance is almost entirely volunteer work)

Challenging and Unique hole design that you don't often see at the average course. It was designed by a left handed pro (Joe Mela) but it has an almost even mix of backhand to forehand shots off of the tee.

Mostly Cart friendly (carting to hole 8 from hole 7 is the only challenging route I can think of)

"scoreboard" above the lost and found box. This will tell you what pin locations the holes are currently in. Also if you happen to lose a disc, you have a good chance of getting it back as they make calls and post lost discs to facebook weekly.

Course navigation is mostly straight forward. If you think you will have any trouble, take a picture of the course map on the back of the "scoreboard"

Bathrooms- located near the main parking lot (near hole 18s green, on the walk to hole 4 (this one is open and heated during the winter) and the third is right buy hole 15's tee pad.

Trash cans (with lids) on holes 1,3,6,11,13 and 18. They're emptied 2 times a week I believe, so they usually are not overflowing.

Scenic, with plenty of wildlife and friendly locales.

2 practice baskets near the parking lot (one around trees and the other in the open grass)

Proximity to many restaurants if you are hungry before or after the round.

Some of the teepads can be slippery from plant debris or after extended rainy periods.

Although the course navigation isn't too difficult, because of the changing pins, it can be a little more difficult for some holes if its your first time. An example of this would be hole 3. In the A position its a short par three with a long walk to the next hole. When hole 3 is in the C position, the holes plays as a par 5 and the walk is probably 400ish feet shorter.

The course is in good condition but could be better. This is likely due to the local club focusing on rebuilding Tyler Park West Course after many tree had to be taken down because of insects that were killing ash trees. I can see this improving after the west course is fully rebuilt.

The course gets crowded on weekends. Sometimes these casual players will not understand the etiquette/ customs of disc golf and the pace of play will be extremely slow. The earlier you come, the less chance you run into these problems.

There are many holes that border asphalt walking paths which increases you chances of hitting a park-goer. Be careful when throwing on these holes.

The baskets are a mix of mach 3's and mach 5's. They can can be tough to see on some holes and the mach 3's should be replaced as they don't catch as well as they used to.

If you're an intermediate to advance player, you may be disappointed by the layouts in the summer. The course is set up to "grow the sport", and is set up very easy because of that. If you want to play the course in the more difficult layout, come during the week of the Eric C. Yetter Championship cup (Pins on in the C position) or during the fall/winter.

Clueless park goers in the fairway at times, but this probably isnt unique to only Tyler park.

In the summertime a few of the holes have very long grass that marks the out of bounds. If you happen to throw your disc in this grass it will be difficult to find.

I tried to be as thorough as possible with my pros and cons.
That being said, if you love disc golf, you will probably love this course. If possible I suggest coming during a week day and to take your time to notice all of the details that make Tyler park truly unique.

Take a look at the tee signs, read the name of the hole (you'll probably laugh), drink some water on the bench and see what animals decides to pop up in the fairway. Curse your putting abilities when you decided to run one of the elevated baskets (hole 10c). Smile when you throw a perfect line through one of the tight tunnels in the woods (hole 4c). Admire the tranquil sounds of the water by the Neshaminy Creek on hole 8. Ponder on how old the gigantic tree on hole 11 is. Square up a tree and think "why couldn't the ash borer get THAT tree.Throw some weird overhand shot you've never attempted before because it's the only short you have. Hit all three mando's on your way to a birdie on hole 14c. Unload the biggest shot in your bag on hole 17. Throw a frozen rope down the tree alley on 18 or hit the first one in front of you while you think of the disappointing horn sounds from "the price is right".

Whatever you do, enjoy life, enjoy disc golf, enjoy Tyler State Park East Course...it's one of the best in Pennsylvania.

P.S. Make sure that you are indeed playing the East Course (there are two courses, the west course is still open but still needs to redesign a few holes)

Another reviewer did not understand how the pins work at this course. Each hole has three pin locations but only one basket per hole at any one time. (i.e. there are not three basket per hole).

P.P.S. If you're reading this in September/ October of 2018 almost every hole is in the C pin or will be there soon. Come test your skills in Tyler's toughest layout leading up to the courses' biggest tournament.

The holes are well marked; they tell you which placement the basket is currently at, which is something other courses have left me guessing at. The holes are each given fun names, which is a nice little addition. The tee pads are in great shape. They did a great job of placing the baskets in locations that are fun to throw at. It's a well-kept park. The map and score sheets provided are nice as well.

Nothing I can think of.

There are water hazards, which gave us a laugh or two.

When East is all C's, it's without a doubt one of the best championship level courses. One's Finesse, Power, Placement, & Putting is all challenged in many many ways. Although not always in C's, all of these skills are needed for East's alt pins & pads. The mix of pin positions has improved in recent years, and has kept the course enjoyable with each visit. What impresses me the most are the greens for the alt pins. Yes, the C approaches & greens are the most difficult. But, you do not see a straight huck through a flat 30ft gap to an A pin that 150ft away; There are adequate obstacles to avoid. And, most B pins are pretty solid Blue-level plays. Besides technically satisfying golf, the conditions are always pristine, with the pads and maps in great shape.

I agree with other reviews regarding the purposefully elevated baskets. I'd prefer stronger pin placements in lieu of them.

It's the second best course at Tyler.

Such a beautiful course and very well maintained by the Bucks Co. Disc Golf Alliance. They do a phenomenal job of keeping the course clean, well marked, and adding some cool obstacles to make it even more challenging. This is a must play course if you find yourself in the area.

None!

Seriously, play this course. Today was my first time, never even had to look at a map. The signage both for the teepads and leading you to the next teepad make this course extremely easy to navigate.

This course has it all - multiple pin/tee pad locations, variety of fairway set ups, open/technical holes, great course upkeep, nice baskets/tee pads, signage, easy to navigate, nice scenery, hot women walking around, wildlife, great disc golf club. I cannot stress enough how amazing this course is. If you are reading this and haven't play the course, get off of your ass!

It's not close enough to me.

Incredible course. I would play this course several times a week if it was closer to me. The club that maintains and holds tournaments is 2nd to none. They always do a great job and are very enthusiastic. If you haven't played yet, play east and west.

Multiple tees
Multiple pin positions
Perfect fairways
Bathrooms and water fountains everywhere
Amazing park
Another 18 holes waiting for you when you're done!!

This can be the most crowded course I've ever seen
Sometimes there are large groups of local kids out there disrespecting the game and the course.

This is my favorite course, I wish I lived closer so I could play it more. The recent change from 27 to 36 holes made it even better. This 18 kept most of the original holes, only two new ones here. The new first hole is a fun ace run in the short, new hole 8 brings the Neshaminy Creek into play bigtime and the basket positions for it are killer.
What I like most is the variety of throws you have to make here. I don't throw long so I can't hit some of the big bombs, but I feel like the design here accounts for people like me too with good landing zones to set up the next throw. My straight throw and then a hyzer approach is what you guys do with a long throw and a hard fade. Even with my short throws there are days I can score pretty good here, the course is very fair. I can also blow up the scorecard on days that I'm off the fairways a lot. The fairways here are huge for ones in the woods, most even have grass growing on them. There are a couple of wide open field throws, ob grass gets real tall. I don't think the course favors righties more than lefties, I feel like I throw a lot of anhyzers here.
Shout out to the local club for what a good job they do keeping this place looking so perfect all the time. And for how often they move the pins around, keeps the course fresh.

* Easy to follow layout
* Concrete tee pads
* Tree signs
* Long and Short Tee pads
* multiple baskets on each hole
* beautiful manicured course
* elevation change
* challenging course
* Clearly define Mandos and OB

* Very popular course. Can get very busy during holidays and weekends.

Wow, I can't believe it took me this long to drive the 45 minutes to play here. Absolutely a great course.

Tyler East quickly became one of my top 3 courses in PA (Nocki and South Hills being the others).

Elevations changes, clearly marked OB. The orange cable on some holes to help figure out OB and missed mandos is a great touch.

I didn't feel the pars where to hard or easy. They felt just right.

Great use of using downed trees for bunkers adds to enjoyment of the cause, taking away lanes and protecting walk ways.

This is a course you have to play to fully enjoy. Words can't describe it.

Go play it.....but go early. It gets packed pretty quick.

36 holes in two 18 hole loops from the parking lot
Best tee markers I've ever seen with awesome hand crafted maps and pin position indicators
Course is extremely well manicured
Long concrete tee pads
Multiple tees on almost every hole
3 pin positions on 17 holes
The huge scorecard/layout board/lost disc kiosk
Benches at (almost) every tee box
Water fountains and bathrooms abound
Bag trees at the tees
Tons of easy to find Next Tee signs
Two practice baskets, 1 open and 1 surrounded by large trees

The wait times on busier days can be excruciating
Several holes play too close to walking paths

Tyler Park is about as good as Disc Golf gets. The East course is a strong 4.75 on it's own merits, but with the West course right there it bumps this destination course up to a 5. They are constantly switching around the pin positions, so the sheer variety of holes you get to play keeps it from ever getting boring. Playing from all tees to all pins it's like 6 courses in one! Whether the basket is in the ace run A's or the behemoth C's, every tee shot is going to make you work. It's one of my favorite courses to play alone on a weekday when there aren't a lot of people around and there's a possibility of being almost alone on the course, super extra peaceful and the way the course flows through the park makes it a delightful nature walk. By the same token, one of my favorite places to play with a group of friends. It's just a great course year round.


Some course highlights:

Right off the bat, Hole 1 can be a straight ace run playing slightly downhill to an elevated basket, or a long downhill dogleg that leaves the woods after the A position and turns 90 degrees right across a grass field.

Hole 2 is the only hole of the 36 that has only one pin position. It makes up for this by having 3 tee positions for A, B, and C affectionately known as, "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly".

Bunkerville (Hole 3) introduces you to one of Tylers signature hazards, huge piles of logs stacked strategically along the sides of several fairways. Big storms keep them well supplied and the local club does an amazing job of cutting and stacking as soon as they fall. A hard fade on your drive can easily have you landing on or over the walking path so best to make sure it's clear before you throw.

Hole 4's design brilliance is the huge, fairly steep drop off the entire right side of the fairway. As with all of the holes here, there's a clean fairway but the penalty for straying from it can be pretty severe. In the longer pin positions the risk/reward factor goes up quite a bit the farther you try to get with your drive. There's a makeable annie that will go a long way but two straight throws are a much smarter play.

I've only ever come across one other death putt anywhere close to Hole 7 and that was at Whistlers Bend. In C, the elevated basket sits precariously close to the edge of a cliff. If you end up in the water here I don't think you'll be seeing your disc again. Even laying up to the long pin is scary, there's a lot in the way and the sliver of ground is pretty uneven. The designers did what they could to help with 4x4's and wood chips, but if you sail off the cliff it's gone baby gone.

Hole 8 is the other new hole and the only hole other than 7's long pin to utilize the Neshaminy Creek. This OB river flows along the right side of a skinny fairway with a steep drop off. The short pin position is perched inches from a decent little vertical drop off. The B pin has a stone wall backstop that can make for some really interesting putts.

Hole 9's tree lined tunnel drive to an uphill (and then over and down for the longer pin positions) is a brilliant use of the terrain. The C pin position here is a beauty.

The green area they built for the 3 Hole 10 positions is just awesome.

Hole 13 when it is in C is a long long long hole through the woods (uphill then straight forever with a dogleg right to the green) that rewards you with one of the coolest basket placements ever! If it's in A you'll have a long walk to 14 and right before you get there you'll see what you missed out on but you'll understand why they can't leave a basket in there more often.

Hole 14 "The Three Amandos"... Again, I just love the names here. A par or bird here when it's in C and all 3 mandos are in play is quite an accomplishment.

After all the tightly wooded fairways you get to 16 and think, "Wow! I finally get to open it up!" Yup, there's a lot of open grassy field in front of you... But the tall grass OB chokes the fairway down just in time to give you a skinny landing zone for your drive, longer throwers have more room to land left if you can get past the trees. Beware of the sink hole/waterfall on the left side of the fairway down there. Here again the C position is long and plays back into the woods with a hard left dogleg.

17 is another chance to grip it and rip it, this time it's the longer throwers that are having to deal with the tall grass OB choke point in the fairway. The long basket here sits in tree jail but the most recent storm felled one of the large guardian trees opening up a clear line at the basket on the upshot.

18 finishes straight or with a sharp uphill dogleg left. This drive/fairway is the plinko machine of the course.


Final Thoughts: Play Tyler! Make sure you download the map or find a local to play with your first time or three, the Next Tee signs are great, but it's a huge park with a lot of holes. Be sure to play 3 for this course and not 21 (side by side tee boxes with 18's behind them) Bring your A game and Tyler will test you. If you don't have an A game, Tyler is still a great place to come play anyway! It is truly one of the best courses (or technically two) in the country.

This is the best course that I have played in Eastern PA. They just recently added 9 more holes to make it 36, so it just got even better. Great variety of open bombers, wooded technical shots, and elevation. The park is always very well maintained and clean. Each hole has 3 different pin positions that are always rotating. Most of the "C" positions will challenge the best players. Unlike many of the other top rated courses in the country, Tyler is FREE!!

There aren't more courses like this one

If you are around Newtown at all looking to play, do yourself a favor and play Tyler. Or if you live a couple hours away and are looking for a top notch course, make the trip. Pack a lunch, make a day of it.

Everything!
You can come here one week and come a couple weeks later and the course plays different due to the three pin locations on all holes. Concrete tee pads are in good shape and the course is always in great condition. The local club and volunteers do an amazing job keeping the fairways beautifully manicured. This course will make you a better player because it forces you to have a wide range of shots.

Not sure if it's a con but this course will show you where you need to improve your game.

just play it!

So much effort constantly goes into this course by the people that run it. It is constantly improving and growing and is always immaculately maintained. The pin position is changed frequently enough to keep things from getting stale. It is a difficult course but not too difficult to be discouraging. Great mix of short and long holes, wooded and open, and has the perfect amount of elevation changes.

If there ever is anything needed, the BCDGA is on it and always improving the course so any cons are quickly remedied. The only con that cannot be remedied is the walking paths along some holes can make it seem crowded and you have to be aware of those people on the occasional errant shot.

There is something in the air here that makes me feel at home and even on a poorly played round it is just a pleasure to be here.

Tyler is a well-rounded, dynamic, and continually evolving 36 hole course, split into two courses: East and West. The east course incorporated two newer holes (1 and 8) to go along with a 16 hole batch of the original 27 (just different number configurations). Each hole offers multiple pin positions (one basket, it is rotated frequently) and some offer short and long tees (the beautiful tee signs are at the long tee) that are concrete. You can find yourself playing a truly different course practically every week or two, from the shorter "A" pins to the long, challenging "C" pins and in between. Water comes into play should you veer right on 8, and the long grass is OB (1, 16, and 17). Next tee signs make maneuvering the course easy. Bathrooms by the first hole as well as down between 3 and 4, and there are water fountains by a few of the tees. Very clean. Great use of elevation and even elevated pins.

Not all the water fountains work (not a con, I'm just saying). The walking path does get close to a few of the holes so if you lose your disc, that can be concerning (I got close on 3 off my drive). The area off the fairways is pretty brutal (but we should be hitting the fairways with our drives, not a true con or anything to knock this course).

The local club continues to do a great job improving and maintaining this course. Their hard effort has resulted in an absolute gem of a course (and that's just the half of it).

BCDGA has put in amazing work for GEAC and the 36 are in their best condition yet! Bunkers are growing too with all the cleanup!

Tyler is one of those special natural places that grows with time and has really matured into something beautiful. The East layout is the first half of what is now a 36 hole beast. Front nine plays down to and along a ridge with swamp below, after to the river. Back nine snakes back up to parking area. Strap on your boots and get ready for the woods with only 2 somewhat "open" holes. East is the less strenuous and more"broken in" half of the 36 containing 2 of the new holes.

To begin the new layout walk up the parking lot away from the new Par&info board/Lost & Found box. Hole 1 is on your right

Starting in on 1, C is a tough dogleg right par 4. OB can come into play if your first drive is too long, and again behind basket on approach. The rough that runs along the right side is thick spotters on the blind DL recommended. From there head down to old 17 which is now hole 2,  after continue to hole 3 where the previous layout picks up. Next new addition is hole 8, which is an amazing addition. After 7 walk across bridge and tee is to your right along river. A pin is dead straight down a tight fairway, about 300ft  perched on the cliff before sloping down into small fairway with L&R options further up to C, B is on left tucked next to cliff face (personal favorite).  Track back down fairway to old 8 and layout continues on. New even longer tee is framed and ready for concrete on new 17. After 16&17 the "field holes", walk across paved path and finish up with 18. 

Pro tip: if playing all 36 cut to 20 after playing 18, then after 36 finish off the round on 19. Saves walking time/energy for the harder hikes on west.

Water fountains - After hole 4 on walking path. After hole 13 on walking path.

Full bathrooms - Between  hole 1 and 18. After 3 on bike path. After 13 to right of B pin

Fresh new baskets too!!

Hard to think of something worthwhile for this section, the first thing that comes to mind is, if your off your game, Tyler can be rough day in the woods. Especially in a competitive round, this course is not very forgiving... Dont give up! Second thing that comes to mind is car and walking paths sometimes come into play on bad shots or ricochet off trees, also sometimes the fairways get confused by park non-DGers as hiking trails, give them a polite heads up and they are typically happy to obligee.

Foliage is in full bloom and it seems to get tighter every week, keep those drives in control!

Need to mention how great the BCDGA is. THANK YOU! The work that went into these new addtitions does not go unoticed. So much respect for this club. From constantly improving the course and relentlessly changing the pin positions to selling custom Tyler state park disc which a % goes back into the park. Building a lost and found locked box to get lost plastic back to their owners and all the great Charity events/ benefit events/ pro-level events you guys roc. Can not wait to see what the future has in store for this course

-May the course be with you-

High hardwood canopy makes for comfortable play on hot sunny days. Even mix of right and left hand shots...a "Technical" course that demands the best on every shot. Elevation, water, trees, out of bounds, and a few mandatories, make this one outstanding course. Bag hanger, benches, tee & directional signs are just some of the amenities that round out the experience. Score/Bulletin board is always up-to-date, with current pins and par (front, back, and total) for East & West courses. Tee signs show where pin is located and where next tee is. The top players in the disc golf world keep coming back to play this course. When all pins are in the long position - a very difficult Par 72. Boy howdy!

If your looking for a "pitch & putt"... Tyler this is not for you. A long walk which makes for great exercise. Lots of play on the weekends...so better to go early or play late in the day to avoid delays.

What a beauty! It's the hard that makes it great!

The course requires every kind of shot imaginable. It is a fair mix of short technical holes and long-arm field shots. There is relatively little elevation change here but where it does come into play offers a great challenge to the players. New hole # 8 runs along Neshaminy creek and brings a true water hazard into play for the first time here. The course is often kept in a mix of A, B and C positions to satisfy as many levels of player as possible at any one time. The course is set up in all C positions for approx 5 weeks each year in advance of the Yetter tournament. This is where the course really bares its teeth. It has all the amenities you could ask for on a disc golf course. Several water fountains; 4 full-service restrooms, bag hangers, benches, multiple pin positions and 1 or 2 concrete tee pads on just about every hole. It has a scoreboard in the parking lot that shows the current location of every basket on the course. All this in a beautiful public park. The disc golf here is tough and fair. You will have an excellent idea of where your game stands after playing a round here.

Due to its proximity to a local community college and the growth of disc golf in general (a good thing!) Tyler can get very crowded on weekends. There are also walking paths that run through a small portion of the course (adjacent to holes (2 thru 7) that are used by dog-walkers, joggers and bikers, but all are out of bounds and shouldn't interfere with the play. It's heavily treed - gnats can be an issue during warmer weather.

The East course is complemented by a West course. Both offer unique challenges - you will not find any repetition of shots, hole design or vibe across the two courses. This place really is as good as it sounds.

The new Tyler starts out with the east course 1-18. There is a sign in the middle of parking lot with hole info and a color map on the other side. Hole one starts on the left while hole 19 starts down to the right. There are signs everywhere saying next tee so this new layout is quite simple to navigate. What a truly pro course, lots of woods and two open holes(16 & 17). Bring your A game to Tyler and don't get upset if you hit trees all day...it happens to all of us. Huge variety of holes, none are the same...love it! The two new holes(1 & 8) are an awesome addition with 8 (Cliffhanger) being a tough par three in A and B and an even tougher par four in C. There is a lost and found box below sign as well and it's open on league night Wednesday's and during events.

No cons, this course is perfect!

Great job BCDGA!

Pro level course representing the best of what disc golf has to offer. Mostly wooded with a handful of field holes to stretch that arm a bit. Very technical requiring a full bag of shot types at your disposal. Top-notch club takes impeccable care of this place. Highly recommended.
