Wickham is an old course that has been around even longer than I have been playing. That means it's one of the first 300 disc golf courses ever made. Because of that fact, the course has an old-school feel to it. Player who can throw 350 accurately will score very well here. Those who struggle to hit 300 will get a lot of pars. The holes mostly play on flat ground with palmettos and other thick bushes to hide the baskets behind. There's not a ton of shot shaping to be done but you do need to consider landing placement. You really don't want to end up in these bushes looking for your disc. The course is worn in and it's fairly easy to find your way around the course as you can see most tees and baskets as you are going throughout the course. Maybe a few tricky pin placements that can be tough to see. It's a lot of 250 - 400 foot shots out here. One or two water holes from what I recall also. But they are on the easy side of water holes for Florida. Shouldn't lose a disc if you have average control of a disc.

Great group of locals out here who run leagues here and out at PBR and Cocoa also.

It kind of gets repetitive and a lot of the holes kind of blend together after a while. With so many holes playing around the 300 foot mark, it can make for a tiring round of throwing harder drives. I know in the winter they do a holiday lights display and some holes become unplayable. But from what I recall, some of the locals set up some other temp holes while that happens?

Wickham is a decent course. Back in 1990 when this course was built, it was definitely pushing the limits of disc golfers and their discs. Even today it's going to challenge most players. Those who have good control in the 250-350 foot range will score quite well here. To score well it is important to make sure you land your drives in the perfect spots or risk being stuck behind a bunch of palmettos with little chance of making the putt. Holes like these are why Johne McCray is so good at turbo putting.

I've had a good time playing here and I was lucky to get to play with a group of locals. Tommy Blevens and some others I can't remember names of. A good group of people who made me feel welcome and made the experience better than it would have been on my own.

If you are nearby, it's worth a play. It's kind of average in terms of Florida golf. Though the course is mostly secluded from other park users, and you don't have to worry about walking paths through holes like a lot of FL courses. It's more on the open side of FL courses with most of the holes playing in grassy areas with smaller clumps of palmettos throughout. It's not like some of the jungle golf that can be found at some of the other courses nearby. Overall it was a fun course that wasn't great or bad. Just kind of an average course that would have been better than many back in the 90's.

- This course is located in a very nice park with ample size. The disc course does a nice job not to interfere with other park patrons who mostly were walking/jogging along the roadways
- The Course has a nice variety of holes for the most part with several shop shaping options.
- A few hazards were present to give some character especially the chip shot over water for the final hole.
- Signage and hole flow were good as well, we were able to navigate the course fairly easily. "Next tee" signs were present on each basket leading to the next tee.
- There were port o lets present throughout the course and a main restroom house near the entrance.

- Flat as can be... typical for most FL courses. There is 0 elevation on this course to play with.
- Unforgiving rough... While it does add to the difficulty level, this course is full of thick, bushy messes of hybrid palm fronds. They eat a disc whole and it is very tough to find anything in there. If you have to track through there, be prepared to have your legs sliced up a little. Some holes have an entire fairway littered with these things and you just have to bomb a shot up and over them and hope you land somewhere safe.
- Became repetitive towards the end... The course looks pretty much the same from hole 1 and hole 22...not much in the way of scenery change.

Overall, a decent course to play if you live in the area. We deemed this place worthy of a visit maybe once a year since we live about 90 miles away. I'm sure the locals enjoy playing here but for me it just lacks character that I look for in a well designed Disc Golf Course. Each hole was the same Par 3 distance with the same obstacles.

22 holes. The newish signs give distance and direction of next tee so previous navigation problems are gone. Sign posts indicate basket positions with a bolt by a, b, or c. Mostly red tees. However, a few holes do have seperate blue tees. Mostly open shots through pine trees. Ace runs all over. Lots of skip ace potential off the pine needles that cover the ground. Other short holes such as 9 can be aced with an air shot. Tall white pvp pipe on baskets help you see the target over the palmettos from most tees. Some long shots added recently with a number of longer alternate pins.

repetitive and nondescript open shots over/around scrub palms. The only difference on most holes is there are less or more scrub palms. Some shots to new longs are so long and blind you may not know what pile of scrubs to start looking for your disc in. Some baskets are very old and will spit out all the purest of putts. Scrub palms could hide discs causing delays.

signature holes #12 across a almost dry stream and bridge is long, 22 is a over water shot. Cross the road for holes 3 & 4. Although most holes are repetitive and nondescript this is still a fun course as mostly open to let it rip. Not a lot of challenge here. Most pars or bogies are the result of putting from inside the bushes. A solid Turbo putt or pizza toss is a good tool to have here. The review below says he could not find the course, I assure you it is still there. I tried to justify giving a 3 disc review as I do enjoy playing Wickham. However, there is just a lack of variety or aesthetics to warrent a 3.

I liked a lot about this course. Don't let the rating fool you. This is almost a 3.5 course. Add next tee arrows, and it would be. But unfortunately, I did have to dock at least an additional half point for what may be a temporary issue. But more on that later. I'm starting with what went right.

The best part about Wickham Park is the flags on top of the baskets. They stand on tall poles and allow you to see the targets when they are behind brush. And frequently, they are behind brush.

Most of the holes force you to find a line through scattered palm trees. The vast majority of the trees are surrounded with a block of shoulder-high shule. What's great about this is that you can visualize both the path and landing area that you are aiming for. The targets are so often protected by brush that needs to be shot over. But, because of the way the vegetation is limited to the immediate vicinity of the palms, you can tell from a distance where it will be safe to land your disc.

The rest of the terrain is mowed grass or open field. There is low risk of disc loss because if you go in the brush. It's well-kept and in an active park, most of the other activities are separated from the course by a decent amount of space.

While the layout of trees and tees will give you a variety of distances and lines, it is the fact that you nearly are shooting over stuff that makes the course distinct. Shots must be kept low, but not too low.

The problem here is that not all baskets are present. It seems in retrospect as if the 22-hole course as been transformed into an 18-holer. That would be fine if there was some sort of notice. But we ended up playing from several tees to the eight basket, because there was no way to tell from the tee or the sign that the proper basket had been removed. Some of the signs had new numbers taped over them, and by the last few holes, where 20 was now 16, 21 was now 17, we somewhat figured it out. But it was no picnic. On an additional hole we ended up playing to the 8 tee. For whatever reason, some baskets are not where they should be according to tee signs and maps, or are just gone.

If that is the case, than the new hole eleven shoots directly over the seven tee? Strange.

Beyond that issue, which I would assume is temporary or new, the course needs next tee arrows badly. Sometimes, the next tee was visible from the basket, but often I had to consul the map downloaded from this site, but even using that, it was often a chore to find tees here. It is just not obvious what direction you are supposed to begin walking in. 3 and 4 were skipped since I did not assume to walk across the road and had not started using the map until we had found 5.

It's pretty simple. A solid, playable course, with debilitating navgation. Next tee arrows, an updated map and the return of missing baskets and this course would be very good.

Course has a decent variety of shots and the large palm-like plants make for a lot of guarded pins that are hard to get at. The closing holes have water hazards to give a little bit of interest. Plenty of holes where you can really try to rip a drive without much penalty for an errant shot.

Pins are rotated by there are no alternate tees. Most holes were signed but no markings for the next tee, so sometimes it was hard to figure out where to go. Signs and baskets seemed to be in a bit of disrepair.

I joined up with a local half way through this round (I was in town on business) and he told me this park was by far the best in the area, though I was not all that impressed. There is almost no elevation change on the entire course, which normally I'd count against the course, but this is Florida by the coast so there isn't much choice for the course designer.
