Nothing but an ace race 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 25, 2010 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Nothing but Aces.
No challenging shots.
First nine are well marked.
Catchers are great.

Cons:

Not Challenging.
Gets very boring.
Second set of tee's to make 18 holes is very confusing.

Other Thoughts:

Unless your a beginner or want to waste your time trying an ace race, don't even bother, the drive out to Ottawa metro park is worth it.

ace race ahoy 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 7, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

if youve never used a putter as a driver get ready. this course is short with most holes being right around 150ft. it isnt much but can be fun, i suggest getting a few friends together and have yourself an ace race

Cons:

very short and not really any obsticals aside from a few 5ft high bushes which arnt really obsticals

I didn't care for this course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 5, 2006 Played the course:once

Pros:

Plenty of ace opportunities
Well Marked

Cons:

Repetitive / Zero variety
Overly easy
Poorly Designed
Boring

Other Thoughts:

I would say this is the worst I have ever played. If your a 4 year old girl and you live right next door to the course and have never played disc golf before then this is the place for you. Otherwise don't waist you time

Pros:

1.Very good for accurate throws. 2. Great course for beginners. 3.The obstacles make you either throw back or forehand.

Cons:

1.Not a very good course for pros unless you want to try and ace these short holes. 2.Very easy.

Other Thoughts:

Its a good course for beginners but okay for ameuters, but bad for pros.

Beginner Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 9, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

--Every hole has tee signs with numbers and distance, there is no way to get lost here. Also there are 9 new DISCatcher baskets all in place (10 including the practice basket).

--This is a great course for a beginner to learn the game at! Big ace chance on every hole.

Cons:

--This course is very easy. The only hole that really has any challenge is #4, besides that every hole is wide open and under 300 feet with zero elevation change.

--No tee pads, just packed ground.

Other Thoughts:

--The course is located at the Fort Shawnee Municipal Building and you park in the same lot as the local police station ;). The baskets are placed in an almost wide open field and run along a fence line with houses on one side, and backs up to a farm.

--It's listed as 9 holes because it has 9 baskets, but there are 18 tee signs so you can play the course as 18 if you want. (This can either be a pro or con I guess.)

--We stopped here on the way back from our Cinci trip, mainly because it had no pics and hadn't been reviewed yet. This is a beginner course all the way, I would not recommend anyone from out of the area to stop at this course if they even have moderate experiance.
