Reviewed: Played on:Jun 15, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

I went with high expectations, as I have heard by word of mouth that this was going to be a 'destination' disc golf course worth the travel. The Large field around clubhouse has nice views and flow. Due to amount of play the course gets, there is minimal undergrowth, (given good disc colors your unlikely to loose a disc here). New club house with all the major disc makers. Rates are equal to other courses in state. That said, I left after just one round, here's why.

Cons:

Baskets are older and in good shape (nice and level) but they lack any bright paint or flagging (pet peeve I like to be able to easily see the baskets). Slow play due to volume. Course layout was uninspired, and favors backhanders. All three courses run through an older growth forest with significant numbers of 10"+ trees everywhere. I understand that removing big trees is prohibitively expensive, but the course has no flow and way to many trees. The attendant at the register told me upon paying that most people shoot 85-115 on the course I was to play (designated par 60, I shot 71)...it's because there are so very few lanes to play, it's mostly chuck and hope = hence the scoring. Fellow players indicated all 3 courses have the same or even more trees than the Griz course did (I asked). Also experienced a few incoming discs from other fairways due to layout.
