4.00 star(s) Solid, old-school course - Sprawling park setting with large mature trees as the main obstacles. - Great location with 2 other courses. Ample parking, bathroom/shelter/playground facilities. - Good concrete tee pads throughout the course. - Nice new baskets. - Beautiful, rolling elevation on...

3.50 star(s) Strong 3.5 - Nice park complex with a good handful of things to do. - Course is nearly completely segregated from other activities. Just a couple near ballfields and roads, but not too bad. - Great, perfectly surfaced trapezoid concrete tee pads. Perfect amount of grip. - Great powder coated...

4.00 star(s) Good for a fun round UPDATED COMMENTS AT END OF REVIEW - A great multitude of pin positions, particularly on the front 9, and then also through #18. Very different lines for all. I used multiple drive-types the whole round. - Great distance variety throughout the course. Hole to hole, and even...

3.50 star(s) Old School - Extremely gorgeous, old community park with lots to do. Connected bike trails, playground equipment, shelters, etc. Lots of little tucked away, secluded areas. A surprising amount of elevation for a park like this. - The Houck-designed maps are fantastic. Kiosk right at #1 with a...

1.00 star(s) Putter Round for me! First off, I really do like what's here for what it's meant to be. - Well kept park - nicely mowed with a nice shelter. Probably just over an acre of park in total. - Baskets in generally good shape. - Easy navigation since you can see the whole course. - Potentially...

3.50 star(s) Riverside 3.7 - A well designed, mostly wooded course that has a lot of different hole types with varying elevation. Front and back 9 loop nicely to the same starting point. - Really thoughtful hole design in general for this course, in my opinion. Kudos to Luke and any others. Open tees to...

3.50 star(s) Lustig 3.4 - Open park with most holes shaped by large mature trees. A prototypical, old school "Park Golf" course with a lot to offer players of all skill types. - Decent amenities with bathrooms, water, and a playground in the middle of the course. Handful of benches throughout the course...

2.50 star(s) Solid Rec Course - Nice, perfectly sized park to put 18 recreational holes in. Nice sized 3-4 acre pond in the middle that the course plays around, and a swift moving river on the north end of the course. - Good amount of trees in the park to create throwing lanes, and they're used pretty well...

1.50 star(s) A lot packed into a tiny space Up front, this course is really a 9-hole course with dual tee pads. However, as indicated by the kiosk, it is to be played as an 18 hole course, with the A pads as the front nine, and the B pads as the back nine. My review, however, will be written considering it...

I have a ridiculously beat dx stingray that does this. I have to be careful not to throw it too hard though, or it's a quick roller.

Blast. I share 0% course commonality with wellsbranch 250 and markmcc - and I wasn't sure that I had ever thumbed any of their reviews. Nice work btw gentleman. Still, it appears that my unique votes from yesterday were still not enough. :-( In other news, enragedmullet gained silver...

I've never played MH, but thoughts that sprang to mind: I think it's important to also remember that when a course began getting reviews on this site makes a difference. Some early courses got high ratings 10 years ago, because they were the best of the best. Now, after wear and tear or minimal...

Yeah, this is nice, beat-in Valkyrie hyzerflip for me. Also a sweeping roller line available out to the left I remember right. :-)

I think this is a great thought. Sometimes to appreciate what a really good, solid, middle of the road community course is (say, 3.0 or 3.5), you have to know what a bad course looks like. You may feel like rating an 18 hole course at 2.5 because it was nothing special, but eventually realize...

Knowing how protective baseball stadiums are of their turf - I wonder if they're aware of spike hyzers and tombstones...
