Extremely wooded courses

Just wondering which are the flukiest wooded courses with pinball alleys, knockdown trees and trails instead of fairways (where the course designer seemingly could not get his chainsaw started) ?
 
Idlewild is close, but I think Blue Pine or w/e it's called has some nasty ones.
 
Summit Park (Summit, IL)

Example:

I just played the most wooded 9 hole course I've ever played in west central Wisconsin, longest hole might have been 300 feet. 3 holes had decent lines to the basket, the other 6 had basically none, pinball alley, luck plays a major factor. This course isn't listed on here, but I'm going to get some info from the director and ask him if it's ok for me to list it here, it was a fun little 9 hole course, if a bit overly frustrating.
 
Clarco state park is extremely wooded with thick underbrush. The holes are all short though. You can make 2 or 5 on just about every hole.
 
I went to the overnight camp for a week and found out they had a disc golf course. But I forgot to bring my discs soo the peeps there had discs that had been dog chewed and were really flipp. They had like 5 hole where the tee was right next to a road and the pin was randomly placed in the middle of the woods. I took like 7s

there are two. This being the worst but still a fun course which is Hagg Lake/Sain Scoggins. It is half open fields and half basket and tee pad in the wood. you find the line in nature.

Hole # 15 349 ft. The basket is up and over and in the next little valley.

check out the link marked "home course" in my signature. there are 4 or 5 holes there that seem like they have no real lane off the teepad to take
 
one of my old favorites, basil marella, is probably the tightest wooded course that i've played more than once.

while not the tightest fairways, jack mclean in tallahassee has some of the most unforgiving rough i've played.


Panthorn Park in CT has the most punishing rough I have ever played. The fairways are also tigher than a snare drum

panthorn is pretty bad too but i don't think it's that tight on the fairways.
 
here's a tight one at basil
