    Review by donnie in course Idlewild

    5.00 star(s) Ultimate DG Experience Playing this course is an amazing experience. I stepped onto the first tee with 20mph gusts of wind so I knew it was going to be a crazy/memorable round. I hate reviewing courses after only playing them once, but I doubt I'll be back in the area anytime soon and this...

    Idlewild/Conditions

    Hey just wondering if anyone's played Idlewild lately and could update me on the conditions, seeing as it hasn't been updated since November on the course homepage. I might be down that way next weekend and would love to play the course. As long as it's not too wet and the mud isn't ridiculous...

    Review by donnie in course Twin Creeks Park

    1.50 star(s) Beginner Level Great baskets and tees. A couple of the holes are really fun. I'm not sure but I think it was hole 5 that was my favorite. It's about 300ft, with a creek off to the left and one tree dead center of the fairway. A nice s-curve (backhand or forehand) should get you close to the pin...

    Review by donnie in course Fox River Park - Grey Fox

    4.50 star(s) Legit Golf Every hole offers some sort of challenge, in other words there are no throw away holes. Elevation adds a unique factor for a course in this area, and it plays into the majority of the holes. There are some challenging tunnel shots, and trees add challenges on every hole. Choosing a...

    Review by donnie in course Fairfield Park - Old Layout

    3.00 star(s) Not Bad There's a pretty good variety of holes here. The first couple holes are wide open with mild elevation changes. The wind whips around these holes, making them play much harder then they look. After the first couple open holes, the course becomes more wooded, and some of the wooded holes...

    Review by donnie in course Lippold Park

    2.50 star(s) Same Old Theres a bit of diversity here, especially on the front 9. There are two holes where you can let it loose and there are one or two tightly wooded holes. This was the most enjoyable part of the course. Tees and signs are great and the course flows well. Different types of shots are...

    Review by donnie in course Warren Township Park - Old Layout

    3.50 star(s) Solid Course Requires a player to choose and then hit a specific line on each hole. Missing your line or choosing to play a bad shot will result in bad scores. Holes curve both ways and don't favor one style of throwing. Very easy to find your way around. 7th and 8th holes provide variety, the...

    Review by donnie in course Adler Park

    4.00 star(s) Great 9 Holes Some very cool wooded holes, and a few holes where you can air it out. Not many hazards, but don't get confident and put it into the river on #9. All holes are solid, and all are moderately difficult and can be played with different lines. The course makes good use of the...

    Review by donnie in course Margreth Riemer Reservoir

    3.00 star(s) Fun Time Very scenic park, and great elevation change. Many holes seemed wide open and easy to birdie/eagle, but wind and a few well placed trees added more difficulty than expected. Designers could have used the elevation a bit more but I think it was used solidly. The wind can make the holes...

    Review by donnie in course MTU Disc Golf - Old Layout

    2.00 star(s) Not Horrible Some of the holes are pretty decent, although not challenging. A couple wide open to start out with, the middle is mostly wooded, and the last few are open. The basket anchored in the stump on the 9th hole is a nice touch. No memorable holes. The wide open holes were way too open...

    Review by donnie in course Leo Leathers Park

    1.00 star(s) Easy My home course. Got me involved in disc golf, but I can't rate it too highly now that I am a more experienced player. Although great for begginers, this course is way too easy for better players. 9th hole is pretty fun, 2nd hole has an interesting design, and the first hole is not bad...

    Review by donnie in course Willow Stream Park

    1.50 star(s) A very fun course to play with friends, as you can play closest to the pin on nearly all the holes, while a few holes offer some difficult shots. The first 2 holes are well designed, but tricked me into believeing that this course would be worth playing. One or two holes you can air it out on...

    Review by donnie in course Diamond Lake Slough

    1.00 star(s) Bugs Some difficult shots. Hole #9 in particular requires an interesting uphill shot through the forest. Nice tees and good signage, easy enough to navigate around. Very easy to lose discs, one of mine skipped off the fairway just a few feet into the rough and spent 15 minutes looking for it...
