Pros:
Course Navigation-
This course is very easy to follow and has tee signs on every hole. It would be hard to get lost.

Cons:
Hole Variety/Course Layout-
Basically every hole is heavily wooded along the sides, with long, straight, needle threading throws. If your disc knicks a tree along the edge and heads into the woods its pretty much gone! All the holes are VERY similar. Too add on, there was even random water patches (some almost uncrossable).
--I dont mean to hate on this course, but at the same time I do. I played this course somewhat decent, so Im not just saying this because I had a bad round. I played with a group of 2-4 year exp. players, and we had to stop about 10 min. at each hole to search for a disc or two in the THICK THICK. Also the bug swarms were really bad.

Other Thoughts:
--The only reason I even gave this course a 2 rating (reasonable) is because there are both pro and am concrete tees, 24 chainstar baskets, and 24 tee signs, but besides that I believe this course hurts the sport more than it benefits it!!
{Note}--- I played here on an average August day and all the cons I listed were present. I can see this course being more enjoyable on a DRY early spring/late fall day. But on a wet day with fully grown brush, this course can be unplayable!
