Pros:
"The Outback" is an optional loop target course at Yadkin County Park. The first review (by nevets4433) is very good and accurate. I don't have any disagreements with his description, but I rate this is a 1.5 because it's 9 holes, too short to warrant a higher rating, it has poor footing on the tees, and while unique, baskets are preferable to tone poles. Still, there are enough pro's to make The Outbook a course worth playing if you hit the truly great Yadkin County Park course:
1. Very tight and technical, made even more technical and unforgiving with the smaller-than-normal tone pole targets. If you've seen the new Marksman baskets from Dynamic Discs, The Outback's targets are about that size. Putting, obviously, is much more challenging. This is a nice course to really work on putting and technical upshots (tee shots here).
2. You really feel isolated waaaaaay off the beaten path here. The rolling hills and forest are peaceful and fun to explore, especially hole 9, which offers the best view on the course (and perhaps better than any views on the regular Yadkin County Park course).
3. I count it as a plus that you can only play The Outback after hitting the first 9 holes of the big brother course. You're not going to make a special trip to play The Outback; anyone who plays here will also be playing the larger 18-hole course. So, playing the "optional loop," as the course sign says, just adds to the overall disc golf experience at Yadkin, and it adds to the peaceful isolation of The Outback.
4. Although this is a short course, it's well thought out: good design, good navigation. There's a good variety of hyzer, anhyzer, and dead straight shots. Hole 9 is the only one with decent length though.
Cons:
1. Poor footing on the natural tees.
2. Easy to lose discs under the fall leaves.
3. Shorter than your average course.
4. For the course, the tone poles fit. They make it more challenging. But still, baskets are better.
