Neighborhood disc golf

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 10, 2024 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

- Course is almost always in good shape
- Nice concrete tee pads
- On slower days, due to the compact nature of the park, you can play to different baskets
- Clever setup shows that neighborhood disc golf courses can fit into even the tiniest slivers of park land & still provide some good variety
- Free
- Easy to get to
- Plenty of parking

Cons:

- Biggest negative is that there is nearly always traffic on this course with frequent large groups (5+) of stoner types; if that is your scene however, may be a plus
- Road comes into play on multiple shots with a ton of cars parked alongside; not uncommon for certain people to be striking cars with their disc or to be retrieving a disc in the residential road

Other Thoughts:

Come during the week if you can

Do not park along the side of the course (along the road) unless you are ok with your car being struck by a pothead's disc. Either park near the tennis courts (behind the fence which sits next to the practice hole) or a little further into the neighborhood

Great tennis courts here that are sparsely used, if you want to get in a half round of disc golf & some tennis with a friend

Great Way to Use a Small Space

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 26, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

A neighborhood nook that is well put together but has some overlap issues.

-Amenities: Concrete tees, numbered Mach IIIs, great tee signs including a picture of the hole. Some holes had what appeared to be circle 1 or something slightly closer drawn in.

-Feel: Very welcoming. The park is nicely maintained on a moderately busy street and you can see the whole grassy plot from any point.

-Beginner Friendly: Not any trouble to be had beyond some large trees scattered throughout. Other than the road at risk (see below), this would be a nice place to learn the sport.

-Shot Shaping/Gameplay: Despite the limited land, a surprisingly engaging layout with low ceilings, trees, and demanding shot shapes. A good number of holes are ace runs for the more experienced, but there are also some very tricky holes on account of distance or gaps in the low canopy. It's certainly not a difficult course and you'll be trying to go low, but at the same time it's not boring and you'll feel satisfaction with most birdies.

Cons:

-Hole-to-Hole Overlap: Several holes either share fairways or play adjacent with another fairway at risk. Due to this, I doubt the course could hold more than 3 groups at once safely. Also, if a group tries to safari like one foursome did when I was there, you better really have your head on a swivel.

-Road Risk: At least three holes play at high risk of hitting cars parked on the street. Hole (2) is a short one playing straight towards the road and even a slight overthrow could mean dents or cracks. A couple later holes have road on the left for a newb hyzer to find. Yikes!

-Scope: All par-3s on a flat piece of land topping off at 300'. There is definitely a limit to the uniqueness of holes out here.

Other Thoughts:

I really enjoyed Northside - enough to give it two rounds instead of one to wrap up a nagging trip. The combo of ace runs be demanding mid-length shots was fun and motivating, and the grassy park had me very content. The primary issue here is with bad throws hitting people or cars. On the whole, it scored a Typical for boring topography but nice design.

Beautiful park, decent disc golf 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 25, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Northside park is a neighborhood park in the town of Azusa, CA. It's a well-maintained, tidy, and quiet park that features all of your typical Socal park amenities plus a 9-hole disc golf course. Parking was easy to find (I just parked on the southern side of W 12th Street adjacent to the park) and I walked right up to the first tee without any wait.

There were several other groups of disc golfers already on the course. One was just finishing up hole 1 so it gave me someone to follow as I navigated my way around the course. I had a map I printed from dgcoursereview as well, but it's always nice to have a confirmation as well. In the end it didn't really matter anyway, as by the 2nd hole we were all playing together for the rest of the round.

As for the course, it's a great place to bring someone to learn the game. The course is on the shorter side. Most of the holes are between the 200-300 foot range. There are some trees scattered throughout the park offering obstacles for your drives and approaches. Baskets were placed in positions that sometimes required you to decide whether you wanted to go left or right of the tree, but nothing was overly complicated or challenging to work through. The course is relatively flat and over even terrain. Most of it is well maintained grass or sidewalk, so again it's great if you're bringing someone to introduce them to the sport.

Each hole features concrete tee pads, baskets in great condition, and signage. Like most 9 hole courses in the area, I heard there were a number of alternate layouts available for locals who wanted a change of pace. All in all it was an enjoyable round!

Pros:
- Concrete pads
- Nice targets
- Beautiful park and well landscaped
- Accurate maps online
- Variety of hole lengths and types
- Easy parking
- Quick round
- Practice basket

Cons:

Aside from the limitation of 9 holes, the biggest con for me on this course was just the general layout. It wasn't a huge deal breaker for me because I joined a local, but even with a map it's still difficult to know which target you're aiming for. Targets 2 and 9 were the biggest confusion for me. I was aiming for the wrong basket on both of them until a local set me straight.

Secondly, fairways cross each other here in opposite directions. The flow of our round was continuously interrupted because we had traffic coming opposite direction on our fairway. We also heard a few "FORE" calls out there too because it was just too many fairways crossing each other. The park filled up during our round so it was a challenge to stay focused.

My last gripe is actually nothing against the park itself but the parking that lines up along W 12th Street. There were a line of cars parked on the north side of the street near the baskets for 2 and 9. Thankfully I didn't strike any of them, but I'd guess the curb was 20 feet from the basket... well within range of landing for decent players.

Other Thoughts:

Final thoughts... Northside park was fun, but I don't think I'll be playing here again. It's worth a visit if you're like me and just happened to be in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way to play it. Or if you're just looking to get out and throw some discs, go for it. Park on the SOUTH side of W 12th Street, walk past the playground to find the pad for hole 1, and enjoy! Watch out for other players tho!

Good times! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 10, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

A really fun way to tune up your game, introduce younger/inexperienced players to the game and enjoy the day out in the park. The holes are fun and pose a little challenge for all skill levels. A pro player may laugh at the distance being short, but you still gotta clink em in. Several "other" layouts are fun to play to shake things up. I've done the sidewalk, college and regular.

Cons:

3 & 8 play into each other. Players playing these, and other holes... and especially the locals playing the 'other'layouts can be confusing and potentially dangerous... but if everyone looks out for everyone and takes the game slow and has fun, nothing matters.

Other Thoughts:

I have heard of a Wednesday Tournament but don't know who to get in contact with to play in it.

New Baskets 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 24, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

The Northside Park Disc Golf Facebook page and the City of Azusa partnered on the purchase and installation of new Mach III baskets. New and alternate basket locations have been added. A practice basket has been added. A to Z liquor, located only a few blocks from the course is selling Disc Golf supplies. Also don't forget Discovering the World, located in Fullerton, sells anything a disc golfer could think of.

There are plenty of great lines and further improvements to come to the park. It is a great course to bring children to learn the game. Most non-golfers understand the park is mostly used by disc golfers.

Cons:

This course is not for long arms. It's great for up shots, putting, and practicing specific lines.

Other Thoughts:

I put a 4.0 rating based on the fact the course is really well maintained for a short city course. The course has new baskets, alternate basket locations, new and plentiful signage (thank you Diego), bathroom facilities, water fountains, local disc shop, a course specific and a landscaping program.

Small course in a small park 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 26, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Short but cute neighborhood course in a nice area. Great course for first time players and children. Bring the family.

It is a very small course in a very small area. Design is appropriate given the small space. Seems to bring the limited trees and terrain into play for newer players.

The park has a lot of nice signage and there are signs on every tee. The number plates on the most baskets have nice custom graphics.

Since it is so small and compact it is easy to get in a few rounds. When I played, there were walkers and a only few other people in the park.

No problems using a cart or stroller here.

There are longer local layouts I did not get to play. If there are no other folks on the course, alternate layouts would provide better challenge for experienced players.

Fully equipped restrooms are next to parking area.




Cons:

The holes are short and it the regular layout would not be worth the drive.

Would be difficult to play with any more walkers or park users.

Not easy to follow on first time if you don't have a map or local player.

Other Thoughts:

I was pleasantly surprised by this cute little neighborhood park. It was in a nice area. I felt safe playing alone.

The regular nine hole layout is not really worth a drive from anywhere. However, if you are already in the area, stop by for a quick round and add another course to your "Played" list.

I rated this course by comparing it to other nine hole courses I have played in small neighborhood parks.

Even though it is nothing special, I do plan to go back to play the longer layouts.

SoCal DG @ itz best! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Oct 30, 2010 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Park setting with green grass and shady trees.

Cons:

Short but sweet...read on...

Other Thoughts:

Here are some instructions for other courses that have been created at Northside Park. They are called the Sidewalk, Gorilla, Progressive and Executive Courses. You must know which baskets are which and the tee pad numbers from the Original Course in order to figure out these other courses. We'll start with the Sidewalk Course since I use some of these tee pads in the course I designed, the Executive.

The Sidewalk Course uses the same baskets as the Original Course but gives a little extra length to the holes by teeing off from the sidewalk. Just look around on the sidewalk around each hole for the tee numbers and a couple upside down 'L' shapes to indicate the tee pad. For tee pad 8, it's a few paces behind the actual tee pad for 8...use the big tree as your reference. Tee pad: in the grass, the big tree will be on your right so you're teeing off about 10 feet south the tree.

So that lays the groundwork for the other courses. On the rest of these courses I'm just going to give you the tee pad numbers and what basket to shoot to...got it?

Gorilla Course (also called the back 9)

1. 1 to 8
2. 3 to 6
3. 8 to 5 (tee off from either side of sign post)
4. 6 to 3
5. 8 to 1
6. 2 to 7
7. 9 to 4
8. 5 to 3
9. 8 to 9

Progressive Course (also called Numbers; easy to remember)

1. 1 to 2
2. 3 to 4
3. 5 to 6
4. 7 to 8
5. 9 to 1
6. 2 to 3
7. 4 to 5
8. 6 to 7
9. 8 to 9

Executive Course (s/w=Sidewalk Course tee pad; contains three par 4's that some of the long armed locals like to play as par 3)

1. 1 to 9
2. s/w 3 to 7 (mandy left of the park sign; to keep frolfers from hitting sidewalk users)
3. s/w 9 to 4
4. s/w 5 to 8
5. 2 to 3
6. s/w 4 to 5 - 490' - par 4
7. 6 to 1 - 592' - par 4
8. s/w 2 to 7
9. 7 to 2 - 425' - par 4

**Update: here are some other courses that we've been playing:

Green monster
1. 1 to 3
2. 4 to 2
3. s/w 3 to 7
4. s/w 9 to 5
5. s/w 6 to 4
6. 5 to 8
7. 2 to 6
8. 7 to 1
9. s/w 2 to 9

College (aka Reverse)
1. 1 to 9

4. 4 to 6
5. 5 to 5
6. 6 to 4
7. 7 to 3
8. 8 to 2
9. 9 to 1

Also some hybrid courses have popped up. Use the sidewalk tees instead of whatever the normal tee pad would be and either shoot the Gorilla or Progressive. Enjoy ;)

--->Edit: Came up with a new course to test how long you think you are. These are all par 3's and will challenge even the longest arms. Only a couple are birdable and most are very difficult to par. Cheers!

Alt sixes (aka Bomber; aka Manly)

1. 1 to 4

*the alternate s/w 6 tee pad is located at the North Eastern end of the park. It was originally placed there by Dave as an alternate tee pad for #6 on the Sidewalk Course (which he designed).

Then decided to make up another long course to set up possible eagle ops:

5. s/w 3 to 5 (par 4)
6. N s/w 6 to 7 (par 3)
7. 2 to 5 (par 4)
8. Tee off between s/w 7 and 7: locate double eyed tree and use the s/w box lined up just S of it (mandy right of that tree) to 4 (par 3)
9. N s/w 6 to 1 (par 4)

Short, flat and dangerous 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 16, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course plays through a small city park with nicely groomed grass. The park is well maintained, and free of trash and vandalism. The tee signs and baskets are in good shape, and there is decent concrete to throw from on all holes, and a nice course map by the parking lot. The design makes good use of the trees available in the park to force some different shot shapes and keep it from being completely wide open.

Cons:

This is an extremely poor design from a safety standpoint. Many fairways cross and play right next to each other, a couple holes throw directly over other tees, and two holes literally throw directly at each other for almost their entire length. On top of this, locals play other layouts, so there are even more discs crossing fairways from unexpected directions. When we played there were a couple large groups playing, and that makes the course really slow as you have to spend a lot of time waiting for them to clear the crossing fairways.

The course is short, with no holes over 250' and some well under 200'. Despite the trees, the shots have very generous lines and no punishment for errant shots, so it's a very easy course.

Other Thoughts:

This is one that I would only recommend if you're in the area and want to check it off your list. The holes are appropriate for beginners, but unfortunately the poor design makes it even more dangerous with newer players who have less control. More experienced players won't find any challenges here, even playing with just a putter.

Texan appreciates So Cal course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 15, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

Beautifully situated below the mountains. Perfectly manicured little park & course.
Quick play - takes 15-30 minutes to play.
A recommended place to introduce disc golf to someone. Great warm-up for serious players even though you can't really unload drives here (hence shorter tee pads).

Cons:

Walking track around the course - beware of errant throws. Overlapping and uncomfortably close fairways on a few holes. It did take me a few seconds to orient myself to the baskets, primarily hole 4, but the tees give good general direction.

Other Thoughts:

Never saw a little course look so professional! A nice jewel for the locals! The wind does make for challenging putts if the drive isn't spot on.

Creative holes on a small amount of land. 2+ years drive by

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

Pros:

• The course designers did a good job of using, at least, one key obstacle on each hole that keeps the course from being a wide-open pitch and putt.
• Good for players working on their approach game and learners.
• Terrain is flat and easy to walk through.
• Lots of opportunities to create your own safari course

Cons:

• Very short. This is only because of the small amount of land to work with.
• Lots of non-golfers on adjacent walking paths. They did seem to understand what was going on though and didn't blindly walk through fairways.
• Some tee-signs were outdated and did not reflect new pin placements or if they were updated the signs didn't clearly show where the basket was. The close proximity of all the fairways did make this a problem on my first visit.

Other Thoughts:

While this isn't a destination course there was thought put into Northside. It's a decent little neighborhood park and I hope it gets new players to crave more.

Model 9 Hole Course In A Small City Park! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 9, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

For being in a very small (maybe 1 block wide x 2 blocks long) city park, the designers/locals have done a wonderful job of creating a very enjoyable little 9 holer here. Although flat, the park has enough mature trees to create interesting and somewhat challenging holes. There are tee signs that give you helpful hints on routes or in one case, informing you that you are throwing into the wind 90% of the time. The pads are short, either decent concrete or clearly painted on the sidewalks. But you don't need much of a run-up here. There is a large map on a board at the beginning near the parking lot and tennis courts. The baskets are numbered for easy navigation.

Cons:

It's a tiny little park. It's flat. With enough people throwing here, there could be a safety problem as a couple of fairways do cross. I would be worried about the walking path that circles the park. I saw a lady walking almost konked by a tee off. It's short w/only one hole over about 250'. The wind seems to blow consistenly. This adds to the challenge factor.

Other Thoughts:

Just a delightful little course to play. Every one of us would love to live close and be able to play a quick 9 at all times of the day. Great place to work on your mid-range game or for safari options. One of my favorite little community park 9 hole courses.

One Clean, Safe DG Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 13, 2010 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

-Fun tee signs that have random little hole-specific strategy blurbs on them (albeit no hole map or directions to next tee)
-Interesting use of the trees on the land. Each hole makes significant use of at least one tree, whether it's eliminating a hyzer line or giving golfers a low ceiling to work with. The trees make this course.
-Extremely quiet, clean park. The locals set up camp near hole 1 and leave their stuff there as they play. It is always visible with the flat layout of the park and gives the course a very sheltered vibe.
-Course is DG exclusive, but underused. Makes it a great place for mob golf and ace contests.
-Alternate tees delineated by spray paint on the "Sidewalk Course" make for a much tougher and more rewarding round. Apparently there is a "Gorilla Course" as well. Ask a local. They won't bite. ;)

Cons:

-Flat flat flat. As a pancake.
-Short Short Short. Longest hole is something like 250'. The rest are between 105' and 220'.
-A couple crossover shots could lead to safety issues.
-Baskets are on the shallow side. Aim for the pole!
-Tricky to navigate to. We got a little lost from the bad google directions it spat out and then spent about ten minutes trying to find the 210. One way streets suck.
-I could see some shanks going into the back yards of some of the houses next to the course. The way the course is set up, though, makes it a pretty slim possibility.

Other Thoughts:

This is a quiet, shady beginner course in Azusa. While my biggest complaint about the course is the flat terrain, the alternative tees in particular use the trees to shape some fun lines. The place is as spotless a course as I have reviewed. The locals must really cherish the place. They sure seemed at home, helping us noobs navigate and giving us the scoop about the two alternate course layouts. I won't be rushing back, but I would like to make it back there at some point and try to line up a game shooting the longest configuration.

Great course to learn at and something for the more seasoned golfer as well. :)

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 1, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

-All baskets are numbered
-Tee signs and concrete pads make course relatively easy to navigate
-Distances indicated on tee signs
-Large map near tennis courts showing course map. Make sure to take some time to generally memorize the layout.
-Seemed basically DG exclusive
-Clean, quiet, and litter free.

Cons:

-Shallow baskets
-Tee signs had no maps on them
-Flat, minus one 3 foot tall hill
-Two fairways and tees throw directly at each other (however I doubt it ever draws a large enough crowd to make this a problem)

Other Thoughts:

This course is on a rectangular plot of grassy park land near a tennis court in a residential neighborhood. While the area seems DG exclusive when people are playing, there is a walking path that borders the park, and a street on one side of it. I parked on one of the side streets so I wouldn't huck a disc at my window.

The tee signs had a short paragraph about how to play each hole, which is something I have never seen before. They indicated the distance on each one, and on one which happened to be a par 2, it let us know. Unfortunately, not having a map on them made it sort of difficult to tell which pin to throw at, especially toward the beginning where they do not follow a simple circle around the park. If you take the time to go look though, all of the baskets have numbers on them.

Saw only one other group playing and I have no doubt that there are numerous ways to play this course other than the provided 9. If I had a park like this near my house I would visit it ALL the time. Perfect for practicing. That being said, I can't say I would go out of the way to play it.

Holes are short enough to entertain a beginner, yet there is enough variety to provide a moderate challenge. I am not very good at disc golf and I finished my only time playing there under par. Holes play around the trees in the park effectively and makes sure they come into play whenever possible. A great neighborhood course.

Learn how to play here 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Aug 7, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

Clean course with no distractions. The holes are generally short and hazards minimal, so beginners can come out and practice basic shots. I've heard there's a gorilla course that the locals know about but I've nevver played it.

Cons:

Very repetitive, some ridiculously short (par 2) holes, no challenges at all here unless you count avoiding hitting other park users.

I heard there's one guy who lives in the condos to the north who gets mad if your disc lands in his yard.

Other Thoughts:

12/2012 update: I've downgraded this course a half a disc because since I wrote the original review I've had a chance to play some really good niners and this one just pales by comparison.

Unless you're an utter noob and live within 10 miles, I'd say give it a pass.
