good all around course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 1, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

9 holes with double boxes that allow for 18.
3-4 holes with elevation factors
nice quick round when not busy
nice clean park

Cons:

heavily played on nice days, can slow down groups of one and 2.
bike trail runs next to/ crosses hole 5 but have yet to have an issue with it

Other Thoughts:

this is my 2nd fav course in town next to exchange. plays quick, and a pretty good variety of shots needed esp if you play the long tees for the back 9. Def worth playing if you never have, and a course i hit at least twice a week lately

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 15, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

New hard plastic tee signs take confusion out of pin position and distance
Concrete pads are ample enough for a good run up.
The back tee boxes create a little variety of challenges while using the same basket

Cons:

Drainage is still an issue, got feet wet where I didn't know there could be water.
Windy days could play havoc, hole 5 is right next to the road. Good chance of going over the fence if the wind catches your disc.

Other Thoughts:

I had a great time dealing with what challenges there were and taking advantage of the chance to really stretch out my arm. I stopped by for 9 and stayed for 18, good park.

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 18, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Good layout with several chances to stretch out your arm. Good mix of open and wooded holes. second tees make for a easy eighteen holes in only ninety minutes. Restroom on sight along with plenty of picnic areas and a playground well off the course.

Cons:

Drainage a problem after rain in the lower section of the course, can get quite swampy. Tees are on the short side and could use a bit of a stretch to make them average.

Other Thoughts:

This is the second course I learned on with Exchange being the first. Played well over five hundred times it has become like an old friend. This was where I got my first ace and met up with friends daily. While it will never be home to a championship round this is what small park Disc Golf is supposed to be.
