Good little 9 hole 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 27, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

two tee's per hole
Decent use of land
Decent flow to the course, semi easy to follow
A couple of memorable holes

Cons:

Sandy ruts for tee boxes
A couple of the tee markers can be a little hard to find unless you have a map

Other Thoughts:

you don't expect much when you go to play a neighborhood 9 hole course.

This course is not boring by any means, it was actually quite fun to play.

I played the long tee's on every hole.

Hole 1, across the pond, basket area is in the open as long as you clear the trees on the left and right on the shore of the pond.

Hole 2 throws down along the trees with the basket tucked into the trees on the side of a hill.

Hole 3 is your run of the mill open shot

Hole 4 was actually a cool hole to play, the "black" see or pro tee has you throwing down the street/circle with the basket up in the trees. Throw it too high or hyzer out and you are OB.

Hole 5 is a basic open shot with a trees guarding the basket. Even if you hit the tree's, you are probably putting.

Hole 6 is another interesting shot, straight down into the woods with a slight drop off rough behind the basket.

Hole 7 is a mess, you probably need a spotter as the fairways is very narrow and you can't see the landing zone from the tee. Still a good blind shot.

Hole 8 is probably the best signature hole on the course, Throwing over the pond to the basket up in the tree's. This one plays harder than it looks. Specially with a hard left to right wind off the coast.

Hole 9 is your basic tunnel shot though a grove of trees. The Long tee has a double mando.

Would I play here again?

Actually I would, Even though it has some easy holes, it is not really a boring course overall. I would recommend checking it out realizing this course is old and worn out.

Waldron 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 24, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Challenging holes. The tee box for hole 4 is along side the street next to the basketball hoops. Hard to find from hole 3. Some long holes with challenging shots makes for a very interesting course in a smallish park. Overall I like it a lot. I skipped hole number 8 because, as a previous poster said, it is a disc eater. There are two tee boxes for hole 8 for different skill levels. One is blue th other red. Use a disc you can afford to lose if you chose to try hole 8.

Cons:

Some of the last holes are in areas where it would be easy to lose a disc in heavy brush.

Other Thoughts:

Lots of fun to play. If in the area don't skip it.

Love it or HATE it 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 12, 2009 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Challenging long tees for more experienced players, and workable shorter tees for more novice players. Water hazzards, thick, disc-eating shule, mandos and o.b.'s. This course incorporates just about everything, though it's only a nine hole.

Cons:

Sand tee boxes make for poor footing sometimes. Local kids like to deface the baskets and pull up tee posts.

Other Thoughts:

If you are going to be in the Corpus Area, at least pay the course a visit just to say you have. And don't worry about losing plastic, we'll find it.
