Winds of Walsh 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 28, 2017 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

~Excellent variety of holes
~Clean, well maintained course & park
~Well placed concrete tee pads
~Nice signage, easy navigation, and good flow
~Course starts and ends near the same pavilion

Cons:

~Although the concrete tees are nice, they could be a couple feet longer
~A majority of the course intertwines with pedestrian walking paths
~A couple areas of grouped repetition (Holes 15-17 & 4-6)

Other Thoughts:

I played this course during a blustery Autumn C-Tier sanctioned tournament. I really enjoy this type of course in which most holes are in the 275'-350' range with defined multiple routes from tee to the basket, moderate elevation, and modestly wooded with fair obstructions. Walsh park provides a very nice layout with a great variety of holes. The paved walking path that snakes throughout the course defines out of bounds areas which creates a nice added challenge. While the path benefits the course layout, it also keeps the disc golfers tied to pedestrians which could disrupt flow and cause safety concerns. The park is nice and well maintained, navigation is easy and the course flows well overall. The first half of the course primarily plays in the more open areas among mature trees with a few holes that provide nice elevation changes. Hole 9 is a 600' par 4 with out of bounds along both sides of the fairway. The back nine takes you up and down a sizable hill then back up hill to a wooded section of shorter, tighter fairways. Hole 18 is a great downhill shot over/through trees. With great variety there are two sections noted in the cons above that essentially have similar laid out holes back, to back, to back. Each of these holes are very good, but grouped together does provide a bit of redundancy but this is more nitpicking than an actual con in my opinion. Hedges Boyer in Tiffin is my go to course while back visiting family, but Walsh will definitely be worth the 30 minute drive to revisit as often as I can. All in all a great course, that is in a style I typically prefer to play!
