Discs and thoughts they fade, fade away 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 27, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

Easy navigation. Park just beyond the baseball fields, then you can easily start at #8, throwing towards the pond. Holes 9-4 play counterclockwise around the pond. Holes #5 (woods on right side), #6, (field somewhat heading toward parking lot), and #7 (back towards pond) leaves you with an easy walk across the field to tee=8, or past it and through the parking lot to your car near the baseball fields.

Red-winged blackbirds love the narrow strip of growth surrounding the pond.

Cons:

Dead flat (it is the Eastern Shore).

Single tee (widely-spread gravel) / single basket (single-chained Prodigys)

Disc loss potential.

Some tees within circle 1.5 of previous basket.

Other Thoughts:

Course is at the back of a large public park near the town of Centreville, and frequently uses a pond and/or thick woods with its dense supporting undergrowth to define its wide fairways.

Holes are open, with minimal shot-shaping opportunities - or, when shot-shaping is needed, it is essentially avoidance of hard fade.

While the fairways are of decent width ...
Holes 7-8 have water to punish overthrowers.
Holes 9, 1-4 have water left to capture left-fading throws.
Holes 1-5 have jungle to obfuscate right-fading throws.
Hole-4 is the nastiest, as the basket is located just past the far edge of the pond, with thick growth along its banks

Hole-6 is about the only hole (wide open field) where too much turn/fade won't make one squeamish.

Distances range from 213' to 420', averaging 332', so there will be several opportunities to bomb away.

It's ... okay, but not appropriate for hyzer-newbs, despite what its relative openness might suggest.
