    I don't like the flow of the course and several of the holes have really odd lines. Having worked for Dave I know his course design and I don't agree with a lot of his tight, long courses.

    Review by smokey102977 in course Silver Lake Park

    4.00 star(s) Sweet!!! Great mix of open and tight fairways, tight greens, rolling terrain, a good mix of distances, OB, and tunnel shots. The course follows a path around Silver Lake and the landscape is amazing. This is one of the most scenic courses in the St. Louis Metro area! It is too far for me to...

    Review by smokey102977 in course Lion's Club DGC

    2.50 star(s) College Town DG A decent mix of open and tight fairways with some really tight greens. Close to UMR. Blind holes, low ceiling, poor parking location. I only played it once but really didn't get much out of it and it was still under construction.

    Review by smokey102977 in course Lindenwood University

    2.50 star(s) Closed to the public! It is a decent course close to my home. The course has some really difficult shots from the tee box, a mix of open and tight fairway shots, and a good mix of open and really tight greens. Lindenwood closed the course to the public. I wonder if they receive any of my tax...

    Review by smokey102977 in course West City Park

    4.00 star(s) AWESOME!!! The length of the course along with a great mix of open bombs, tight control shots, and ultra tight greens make this a course that can destroy your confidence. Water comes into play on most holes so make sure you have an ample amount of discs. It is too far away from me. I prefer to...

    Review by smokey102977 in course Foundation Park DG Complex - Champ 18

    3.50 star(s) HOLY COW!!! Awesome park setting. Practice basket. Driving Range. Great mix of open and tight fairways, tight and open greens, some elevation change, and lots of shot types can be utilized around the course. Can be too long. When playing from the long tees to the long pins, especially during a...

    Review by smokey102977 in course Quail Ridge

    2.50 star(s) Local Friendly It is an easy course to play. I have yet to run into a bunch of crowds. The tight fairways challenge your control. Greens are tight and can play fast. Parking can be a problem on weekends since the park is used by other recreation. It is very local friendly. Course becomes nearly...

    Review by smokey102977 in course Sioux Passage - Original

    4.00 star(s) Mixed emotions Sioux Passage has four pin positions that make the course really easy or extremely difficult depending on the positions, most of the time they are mixed positions making the course really playable. The tee boxes are mostly open with fairly open fairways. The Park Dept. does a...

    Review by smokey102977 in course Jefferson Barracks - Original

    3.50 star(s) JB is Sweet! JB is a great park course. Multiple pins, a great mix of tight and open fairways, a mix of open and tight greens, some slight elevation change occurs throughout the course, and some complex distances meandering through a maze of mature trees makes this course a must play for those...

    Review by smokey102977 in course Creve Coeur Lake Park - Old Layout

    2.00 star(s) Creve Coeur DGC This was my favorite course for a long time. Super long, tight greens, and flat. Trees come into play but are easily avoidable. The course is no longer open during the summer. I only play in the summer. The parks dept. doesn't maintain the course anymore.

    Review by smokey102977 in course Carrollton Park DGC

    4.50 star(s) Best mix of shots in St. Louis This course is set up to challenge any disc golfer with short, medium, and long tee boxes and multiple pin placements. The course winds through an old subdivision with mature trees and lanscaped yards. There are several different types of elevation changes and...

I have tried both and even got to play around with a...
