Driving in to the Young's Run Disc Golf Course, I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. Usually, I take time to analyze all pictures, hole lengths, reviews, and everything available for me to play, but this round was more spontaneous, and I believe it was a good choice to play blind.

When I pulled into to the course, there was only one car in the parking lot, as it was about 11 o'clock on a Monday. It let me take more time on each hole, and analyze the course more. I don't know the usual crowd of this course, but an empty course can be a pro.

There were two very nice concrete tee pads on almost every hole, one short one "long", with a solid, informative sign by the long tees.

The baskets were probably the best Mach III's I've played on, so even though they were Mach III's, they were great for the course.

The holes were a good mix of lefty friendly and righty friendly, as well as uphill and downhill, and heavily wooded and slightly wooded. I threw a lot of different shots off the tee, even if they were shorter holes.

There was never a long walk between holes, or a time I felt that something was unnecessary. There were a few cool holes I liked, and the little novelty items hanging was a nice touch. Try to find them all!

First off, this course was not very hard. I played the whites, and I felt like I did not play well, but scored well in relation to par. Someone who can actually hit a line and throw 300 feet will not struggle very much with this course. That was my biggest reason for a rating of three. A 3.5 for me should be over 6000 feet from the long tees, at least.

There were some fairways that ran close together, or somewhat overlapped. I played the course alone, so it was not an issue for me, but I could see an issue arising during a tournament or a crowded morning. Please be aware of your surroundings.

There were a few filler holes, that were definitely too easy to be pro level par 3s, and I really wanted to have a couple more holes. If they could combine the filler hole with a different hole, there would be more par 4s and 5s that would add to the first con I listed.

I really enjoyed my quiet round at Young's Run. It was a well-maintained park, that gave me a very relaxed and fun experience.

I believe this course is absolutely perfect for a casual round with friends, a community league round, and even smaller tournaments.

I would love to play this course more often, as this type of course is one of the most fun for me to play, and I can honestly recommend it to most everyone!

-Some really nice baskets

-Almost all holes have concrete pads.

-Signposts with broad layouts for each hole

-Majority of the holes have multiple tee pads, and some even have multiple pins.

-Navigation to get to the park is easy, helped by a number of signs that indicate a disc golf course is near on the road approaching the course. Course navigation is also a cinch, helped with the scorecards. Majority of the holes flow into one another intuitively, and if there's any question you'll find a sign pointing in the direction you're looking for. Well done.

-A fair mix of open and technical; lots of elevation, some open and some wooded holes

-Quite a few ace run holes, especially if playing from short tees

-Color scorecards with course map on the back

-I'd call it a scenic course, at least going through the wooded parts; there's a fairly wide creek running through it and for a few holes one gets that 'otherworldly' or 'separated from the rest of the world' feeling

-Very clean course

-While some of the baskets were brand new, others were old and I would classify a few as shabby. Not unplayable though, very minor. Seems it should be mentioned.

-A strange number of ace run holes - from short tees, anyway. At short tees you're looking at 6 holes less than 200 ft long, and one that's 108 ft - way short. If you're a beginner, this is good. But if you usually play shorts at other courses, this course might present the right time for you to start longs.

-Some really thick and prickly brush

-Some of the tee pads were numbered incorrectly; slightly confusing

Kind of a weird, but solid, little course. (maybe this impression was created by the creature-inhabitants - see below.) For some reason it felt tonally unbalanced to me; though the shots needed are plenty mixed.

If you usually play shorts (at least in NE Ohio), and can keep up with par, play longs here. On the flip side, if you're bringing somebody disc golfing for the first time, the short tees here would make for an excellent introduction considering their length.

Hole 5 and hole 16 - tied for most memorable hole. Hole 5 is way cool, from the long tee it's a short downhill anhyzer/forehand route over the river and hard right to a basket that's atop a dirt mount - with a 5 foot drop into the river directly behind the basket. And from the short tee it's a technical ace run. Hole 16 is a hyzer line around a group of young trees to lay it up into a basket also elevated on a 3-4 ft high grass mound.

There are Halloween masks - ghouls, aliens, werewolves, etc. - hanging on trees throughout the course. It's Halloween-ish time right now, but judging by other reviews these stay up year round. Not my style at all, but it shows that there are locals around who love the place, and that makes for a nice touch.

A solid course. If I'm ever in the area I'd play it again, but wouldn't go way out of my way.

Good mix of open/wooded holes. The layout offers some challenging Tee shots, many of which are blind. Hole 5(i suggest having a spotter) is a dogleg right over a river and hole 8 is dogleg left backover the same riverThere is a 2nd basket on holes 1, 9, and 12 basically just for the better players to get more of a challenge. All in all, a fun and technical course.

Not yet a full 18. The woods can be hungry at times as this course will eat your discs with a bad tee shot. Heavy undergrowth and thick woods on some holes.

They appear to be adding a few holes right now. you can see they are doing work between holes 5 and 6 looks like another dogleg or two. You can jump to the kent state course from the pin at hole 6 but i would advise just finishing this course and then driving over if playing at all. FYI Kent course is all par 3's and is COVERED in goose shit(no joke). i personally just avoid it.

This course has some fun holes, one going over a river and some nice doglegs. Many of the early holes are cleverly and challengingly placed in wooded surroundings. Minor hills.

Last few holes feel tacked-on to what was probably a 9-hole course originally. Decent holes, but don't fit into the vibe of the core course.

Worth checking out if it's a fairly close drive for you. Some solid and clever holes on the course early on.
