    Review by dwellman in course Peaks View Park

    2.50 star(s) Beginner (mostly) course My previous home course (since before the baskets went in). Plays very short and very quick. Was designed, intended to be beginner friendly but still provides a *bit* of challenge to experienced players wanting to work on their short game. Man this review went in...

    Review by dwellman in course SAU DGC - Old Layout

    3.00 star(s) :) If you're a LHBH or RHFH thrower-- this is a good course for you. Innova DISCatcher. I do not have any real pros or cons to add what hasn't already been said. I really appreciate the fact that Southern finally put a real disc golf course. (An object course had existed years before). It serves...

    Review by dwellman in course New Quarter Park

    4.00 star(s) Just an FYI I skimmed through the other reviews and I didn't see but if so, I wanted to re-iterate that your $3 fee is good for 24 hours: that is if you were to buy your round at 2:10 PM you can play until 2:10PM the next day. Other than that, I've nothing to add to the reviews already...

    Review by dwellman in course Sharp Springs Park

    4.50 star(s) One of the best I've played Excellent use of terrain. Absolutely perfect mix of open, wooded, long and short. Gnats. Baskets on #8, #10, #16, #17 can sometimes be difficult to see / spot first time 'round. Love this course. Almost makes me want to move to the area so I can play it more often. #9...

    Review by dwellman in course The Sinks

    4.00 star(s) Bring your short game Practice basket Driving range Multiple tees and pin placements Questionable pin placement on some holes: baskets too close to obstacles or otherwise obstructed. Chattanooga's first real disc golf course and its a stunner. Very tight and very technical, but still somewhat...

    Review by dwellman in course Mills Park DGC

    2.50 star(s) Same designer for Raone Co and Athens? In Gatlinburg. Real baskets (i.e. not Innova) Navigation is a bit tricky. Descent from tee to pin on 9. . . I don't know about you but I don't like the fear for injury risk on this hole. Is there another way down I should know about? I really didn't intend...

    Review by dwellman in course Ross Barnett Reservoir - The Rez DGC

    4.50 star(s) Good course Good length variety Good overall length Good shot variety I had the course (and sometimes the entire park) to myself more than a few times. Navigating the course for the first time (hole 1 to hole 2 and hole 11 to hole 12) can be tricky even after looking at the course map-- well...

    Review by dwellman in course Centennial Park

    2.00 star(s) A bit suprised. Mix of long(ish) and short. Variable terrain. The Tee Pads are way too small. Might as well not have them. The sign posts not set properly and some had fallen down-- not that they are necessary. Uninspired design leads to monotonous shot selection: Straight Drive. Putt. Straight...

    Review by dwellman in course Roane County Park DGC

    4.00 star(s) Suprisingly challenging All the quintessential elements come together on this course: trees, wind, elevation, and water. And that's only 9 holes. I regret there is no safe place to lay up on 1-- either make it across or throw a disc that floats For me, courses are either beginner friendly or...

    Review by dwellman in course Cane Creek Park

    3.00 star(s) Jekyl and Hyde Continually improved. Clean, well kept park. Innova DISCatcher Some terrain on the back 9 (10, 17, 18) a bit technical-- especially if you should make an errant throw (which I *never* do). A true Jekyl and Hyde course. Front 9 mostly wide open and somewhat beginner friendly. Back...

    Review by dwellman in course Grubaugh Park

    3.00 star(s) Just fine Impressive use of available space and terrain. Beginner friendly. Real baskets. None really. Some say it's too short or only 9 holes. If you (more experienced players) want (more of) a challenge, you go across the way to Nixa (McCauley Park). Kind of did not intend to play this...
