What to Expect - This park style course is set in a beautiful and well maintained park just on the outskirts of downtown Owensboro. This HB Clark design course boasts 27 holes but I will only really be focusing on the original 18 as the added on 9 seem like alternates added by the local club. Great for beginners (if the either skip the water holes or just alternate tees) all the way up to intermediate players. Lightly Hilly (really only two hills on the entire course that are used very well), water (creeks and ponds) come into play on at least a third of the course, and lightly wooded.

Design - Yellow Creek uses a mostly open design with a few distinct obstacles and a strategically placed basket to create it's challenge. For instance Hole #1 is straight and open but a large creek looms to just to the right of the basket and every shot filters that direction. Hole #2 is also straight but the basket is tucked just barely into the woods on a sharp uphill slope. Hole #3 shoots you out and down a wooded tunnel and then doglegs hard left. Holes #14-#18 all have baskets perched on or near the lake bank. This course forgoes big distance requirements and focuses more on control and touch. Very much a short course where every hole can be birdied.

Tees/Signage/Baskets - Tees are very long and quite narrow compared to most of HB's other designs. Still in good shape even as the course approaches being 25 years old. Course map kiosk and tee signs are good but not great. They do provide all relevant information but are showing signs of age. Practice basket location (it had been stolen when I last played but I'm pretty sure the local club was able to replace it). Baskets have been updated since the first time I played it as well to Prodigy cross chain design.

Amenities - Multiple shelter houses and modern bathrooms, ample parking, course is separate from playing fields and avoids issues with everything except pavilion renters and fishermen. Course is extremely well maintained. Mowed every time I have visited, multiple benches, tables, and trash cans throughout the course.

Signatures - Holes #2, #3, #4, #10 and #18 could all easily be considered for the signature hole of the course depending on who you ask. Some people will hate them though, just as much as others love them. My personal vote goes to Hole #10 as it just edges out Hole #18 (as 18 has too many negatives against it as I will describe below). Hole #10 is a tight straight downhill low ceiling short gap shot that turns abruptly to the right where you find a basket just mere feet from the steep bank of a creek. The hole might play 100-125 feet due to the extremely downhill nature and the groundplay you get. Extremely touchy shot, a suicidal ace run, and a perfect synopsis hole that encompasses and summarizes the entire course.

Extras Worth Mentioning - The course really only has two hills, three if you count the downslope from the parking lot area. The elevation is used to perfection. Not a hilly course by any means, and very cart friendly. The course ends up being much more aesthetically pleasing than you would first imagine when getting out of your car. There is not a lot of underbrush, but they have left just enough to mildly punish bad shots.

Lost Discs - There is a huge lost disc potential on Holes #1 and #10 and Holes #14-#18 as the creek and pond are waiting usually just a few feet from the basket locations. The sides of the bank on the creek are steep and slick and it's hard to retrieve discs from them. The pond is a protected habitat and you are not allowed to enter it to go get your disc (there is a local who is allowed to rake the lake, so make sure you have your contact info on your discs and he'll get them back to you).

Flood Plain - Course sits in a flood plain bowl between multiple creeks with the pond area actually being one of the highest points on the course. Holes 1-4 and 10-13 hole water after heavy rain and the creeks can overflow their banks. Can be very wet and soggy even days after a good rain.

Hole #18 - While being beautiful and honestly not that long of a water carry (probably 250-275 feet), it is a forced water carry. With only lake to the right and the parking lot to the left, you are forced to go over. Shorter arms may need to skip this hole entirely. Within 30 feet of the basket is a well utilized picnic area and a shelter house which both can be in play off the tee. Add to it this spot is a favorite among fishermen and it can get pretty crowded around the 18th green.

RHBH Bias - This course is very RHBH dominant with mostly open hyzers or right to left turning fairways being the desired route (outside of Hole #10)

Annoyances - Mosquitoes are an issue due to the flood plain, poison ivy is pretty prevalent in the rough areas, and the park has a tendency to be VERY busy with families and fishermen making it difficult to throw.

Hole #9 - Hole #9 isn't as bad as hole #18 but it is a "get me back to the parking lot" wide open short hole with not much character (a let down from the other 8 holes on the front 9) It brings the parking lot and vehicles into play and isn't memorable at all.

The additional 9 - Holes 19-27 are passable and not close to being as good as the original 18. They are mostly wide open, but much longer holes that play around a few open fields without much character or visual charm to set them apart from one another. Several of the tee signs for these holes are missing and the distances can be hard to gauge. Not bad holes, just nothing to get super excited about.

Yellow Creek is a splendid course that has stood the test of time. It is definitely on the low end of skill required to perform well at, but is extremely solid for a short park style course. It would definitely score higher on my list if the park wasn't so busy and the basket locations weren't in spots where lost discs occur frequently or you are forced to wait for people to move to play. Nothing extremely brilliant about the course to push it higher on my rating scale, but it does what it intends to do extremely well. Probably the best course in the Owensboro area and a must play if you are traveling through.

I play this course often, because it is excellent. It is great for beginners and intermediate players. Most of the holes are wide open and not too many obstacles in the fairway.

If you can drive around 300-400 feet, it is a good course to 2-shot every hole. You'll also love the 18th hole, which is 95% over water.

If you come during a weekday, it's likely nobody else will be on the course.

Grounds are kept very well. They are frequently mowed and clear of debris.

Bathroom is in a tan stone building behind the course, next to the playground.

I'm a beginner and I skip holes 14-18 because I don't want to risk throwing my disc in the lake.

Holes 1-4 and 10-13 are unplayable for 24-48 hours after a rainstorm. It is a muddy, soggy, flooded area. Hole 4's tee floods a lot and is now covered by mud.

Hole 1 is a straight big drive, and a beautiful view. Be careful not to overthrow the basket, because there is a creek behind it with a steep hill that might make retrieving a disc impossible.

Hole 2 is mostly straight. The basket is in the woods a little right of the tee. Better to be on the right side of the basket than the left, to make for a shorter putt.

Hole 3 has a dog-leg left. Drive over the trees and curve out and left as much as possible.

Hole 4 is straight, but the hill provides a little bit of an illusion. If you can drive over the hill, do that. Lots of space beyond the basket so driving too far isn't too much of an issue. If you can't drive over the hill, try to hit the stone steps. It's a good hole to get an ace.

Hole 5 is tricky - very narrow, but short. Be sure to use a brightly-colored disc in case it flies into the trees.

Hole 6 is straight. Try to stay right of the cluster of trees in the middle. Don't overthrow the basket on the approach or putt, because there is a very steep and unforgiving hill behind it.

Hole 7 is long, and will likely need two drives from beginners and intermediates. Stay right of the utility box on the tee drive. Don't overthrow the basket on the approach or putt, because there is a very steep and unforgiving hill behind it.

Hole 8 curves a little to the left. Intermediate and advanced players can probably get near the basket in one drive. Throw a little more right than you might think, otherwise you might end up in the valley on the left of the fairway.

Hole 9 isn't all that great. The hill provides a bit of a challenge. Driving left might appear counter-intuitive at first, but makes for an easier approach and putt. It's easier to putt from downhill throwing up, than uphill throwing down.

Hole 10 curves to the right at the bottom of the hill. If you throw RHBH, this hole might be tough. Don't drive past the bottom of the hill, because there is a creek with a steep bank behind the basket.

Hole 11 curves to the right, and is a little tough to see at first. It is not straight ahead - that is the basket for Hole 13. Driving past the basket is OK - there is a very tall hill that will keep your shot from flying past the basket.

Hole 12 is long, but pretty straight forward. Drive as far and straight as possible.

Hole 13 has some obstacles. Throw right of the trees to set up an easier approach.

Just a fun course to play. You have water, woods, long open shots and also lots of blind up and down hill shots.

Hole 18 has a shot over the lake. Is fine if you think you can make it. I just skip it. Not that good yet, but I'll be back to try.

A couple people fishing on the day we were there. Not a problem in February but may be in May, June , July .

Very unique. I LOVED holes 2-8,10 and 13-18. So many holes that I could stick on a random course and call them signature holes. But there are so many of them here, that I don't know which ones are signature. 2,3,4,10,18 could all be signature holes. It's not even right that I'm going to use Idlewild in this review, but that's the only other place I've been that I've walked up to the teebox and thought "Wow" so many times. Yellow Creek Park really has one hill. One really steep hill that was used perfectly for the disc golf course. 2 has the basket on the steep hill, and it happened to me, I missed the gap and played a spike hyzer into it with my second shot that actually hit the basket, and then rolled all the way down the hill and I made bogey. Then you get to the top of it and play 3 back down, making one of the coolest drives I've ever thrown. Then 4, back up the hill, took me 5 minutes to decide what to throw, it was a great thinking hole. One straight 240 ft hole, where I considered backhand, forehand, and threw a thumber and could have made any work. So they made 3 good holes out of one hill. The lake was also used well on 14-18. The tee boxes were really long too.

1, 9, 11, and 12 are pretty straight forward, open, easy holes, but I can handle a few of those. If I were to play the course again, I'd stop after 18, 19-27 seem like they were added on, and are pretty boring holes. A lot of the tee signs were missing, and it was hard to tell distances.

I love the uniqueness of this course. I didn't realize by looking at the pictures, just how different it was. I guess you could say the pictures don't do it justice. Playing sign par the course is pretty easy. This is one of those I would play as all par 3s. Playing sign par a person in my group shot -14 for 27, and -10 for 18. He's a 920ish player shooting that score so it is very scoreable.

-Much prettier course than I expected. The extra 9 holes play in and around treelines bordering a couple of fields, and as such aren't as visually interesting, but the original 18 in particular make a very attractive course.
-Maintenance was excellent, the entire course looked well taken care of.
-Teepads were adequate (but were the longest and narrowest teepads I've ever seen, personally I felt the length was mostly unnecessary and would have like a bit more width).
-Signs were adequate.
-Decent variety of holes. Short, long, left, right, hilly, flat, water, field, etc. The original 18 would have been a little short for my tastes, but the extra 9 holes allow you to stretch your arm a little.
-The wooded holes were nowhere near as gnarly as I expected. They have the look/feel of an older wooded course that gets a lot of play. In other words, there's not a lot of underbrush.
-The holes around the lake, while not without problems (see below), were attractive and added an element that's missing from most courses I regularly play.
-Benches made out of big stone blocks on several holes were welcome and also added character to the course.
-Several unique signature holes (#4, #18 in particular) that you will remember long after your round.

-Hole 18 is a disaster waiting to happen. The basket sits about 20-30 feet in front of a prime picnic spot that I'm assuming would be packed with people on most weekends during warmer weather. On the day we played, there were about 40 people just past the basket, right in the line of fire. So at this point, you have two choices: #1 you just throw toward the crowd, possibly hitting someone, #2 you try to yell "HEADS UP" from across the lake and let people know that a dangerous flying object is heading their way. Well, we chose #2 and yelled several times from across the lake, with barely a person acknowledging that they ever heard us. Most people over there never bothered to turn their heads. So then what do you do? Stand over there yelling indefinitely or just throw it at unsuspecting people? Neither option is good. Given that none of the picnickers were paying attention to our shouts, I tossed my first throw into the lake trying to play it cautiously. My second (less-cautious) throw ended up under someone's lawn chair. It's a great looking hole and I love playing it, but I just don't know that it's worth the injury potential here.
-Several of the other holes near the lake also had kids and fishermen in the way. We were throwing spike hyzers over fishing kids on 14. I really like the lake holes, but I don't know that it's worth the risk when you have to share the lake with 50-100 other people.
-Hole design is biased toward RHBH throwers.

-We played this course after Madisonville on our return trip to Louisville. Honestly I was expecting a bit of a letdown after just playing such a great course, but this one surprised me. I think it's fair to call this course a little hidden gem out in the middle of nowhere. The local club and/or parks dept is taking care of it, and it looks like it gets a good bit of use. If you played this course during an "off-peak" time, such as a weekday when school was in session, then my biggest gripes about the course would likely be mitigated. It was an enjoyable round of golf and I look forward to playing it again.

Hole one, easy downhill no problem-------well there is that deep creek right behind the pin..
Two looks open, hmm nope it's in the woods and up a steep hill thats lets the disc have room to roll back down.
Three should be easy. Hey where is the pin? Down the hill and left?
And so goes this wonderful little course here in northern Ky. Each and every hole has a different look and a set of challenges.
It's easy to score well here provided you stay out of the rough. It is REALLY ROUGH.
The holes over the pond are tough but fair for players who can throw 250.
Nice mowed fairways and benches/tables and trashcans at key places around the course. People are very friendly and will help you out on where to go next. Finding the next hole wasn't hard but there were some places where one might get lost.
Love the extra long teepads.
Five Guys Burgers is a few minutes away as are many great restuarants.
Ducks and Geese and beautiful scenery abound in this neat park.
All in all just a great place for a great game.

Poisin Ivy was all over the place and some of the roughs could be cleaned up a bit.
Hole 9 was kinda out of place and didn't impress me as being ":Neat". Just a plain short hole whose only purpose was to get you back to hole 1 and 10.
The people around the pond were in the way and they had small kids fishing and playing. They were nice enough to watch out but someone could get hurt. Hole 18 needs a drop zone for us throwers who can't make the 250 feet in any wind condition.

Just a good 3 par course with some elevation and challenging wooded holes.
I think this is one of H B's better short courses. I will be back.

Beautiful location. Nice and wooded with a stream adjacent to several holes. Course is fairly technical and you will search for the perfect disc/throwing technique for drives. Good course for beginners. Shorter course that has made good use of limited space.

A couple of the holes are Gimmicky with throws way up hills that basically require a measure of luck to avoid major obstacles or baskets buried deep within tree stands that require the same luck to even get a makeable birdie shot. Main complaint is that the course is very short. Not enough par 4s and I found myself having to hold back as to not overthrow baskets on my drive. Big arms will have to get creative.

A good fun course. Fun for everyone wheather your a beginner or an experienced player. 15-18 or around a lake, where you can play over it or play it safe. 18 is the only hole that requires you to throw across the water. It can be a difficult shot, especially if its windy, but makeable 9 out of 10 times. My personal favorite is probably hole 4 being straight up a hilll with lots of tree coverage.

Around the lake can get kinda busy with people fishing or just siting around. You may have to ask people to move out of your way or yell a heads up before you throw.

Its about a 30-45 min drive for me. Since it's not my home course it's nice to drive over for the weekend and make an afternoon of it playing a few games with lunch in between

Since this is my home course, and the last 9 holes were alternates, I am going to review the original 18. For starters, the use of elevation in this park is great, and very few shots are just a straight shot across a flat field. It may not be the longest course ever, but it was a great place to learn as a beginner. It has a decent combination of woods, fields, and water to make it interesting. Some holes (such as 6, 10, 16, and 18) are trickier than they appear, as there is either water or a very steep drop off near the basket. Each 9 loops back to the parking area. Hole 18 is always a fun shot, a 250 ft throw over a lake onto a peninsula.
Each hole has a stone bench to sit on and the signs are fairly accurate. This is an excellent course for an introduction to the sport, as each hole can have multiple shots. The course fairways are extremely well kept, so you do not have to worry about losing your disc in tall grass.

The baskets are only single chain, so if you are used to the stopping power of dual chains, you will have a few blowouts. There are virtually no O.B.'s except for the creek or the lake, which does not challenge the player to think about their shots. Course can get crowded during cross country events as the runners run along the creek. There are other events as well that can take up the fairways of the first few holes.

The Daviess County Disc Golf Club is a really friendly bunch of people, and they have regular club events each week. Usually there are bag tag rounds on Tuesdays and Saturdays, and Doubles rounds on Wednesdays and Sundays. Really great disc golf community that truly loves the sport.
Update: the photos of holes 11-14 are not up to date; hole 11 no longer has the mound of dirt in front of it, hole 12 and 13 no longer have the gigantic tree clusters blocking the basket, (unfortunately) making them significantly easier.

Original course lies in the back of a multi-use park partially along the Yellow Creek and up and down some large slopes. The course is partially wooded with rather large lines to get to the basket. A variety of lengths keep it from getting repetitive. Nice stone benches and large tee pads accompany each hole on the original 18. Nice use of the elevation in the park with some holes up, others down, some across grade and others flat. A lot of baskets are strategically placed for a do-or-die putting situation if your drive isn't right near the basket. The last five holes really make you concentrate otherwise your disc will probably get going in the water.

As mentioned by others, the course can become flooded after heavy storms and numbers 1, 2, 10, 11, 12, and 13 can become unplayable. The extra nine (holes A-I), which start on the other side of the road after number 8 don't add much to the character of the rest of the course. All have long narrow tee pads that don't allow for any sideways movement on them. They feel like they should be on a different course.

Course can be very busy on nice days and after school is let out. I don't see this as a Con but kind of as a Pro meaning that this is a good course for all skill levels and gets used a lot. Only other real suggestion/comment I have is that maybe there should be a couple of brooms out near numbers 14-18 so you don't have to drive while going through goose crap on the tee pads.

Nice and challenging course in a very busy park that itemizes the land given to almost its' maximum potential. Front nine has nice elevation uses, and one hole in particular stands out to me, but I can't remember the exact number. You throw at the bottom of a basin straight up a hill with concrete stairs and the basket is right up the top of that crazy steep hill. Some ace runs available. Back nine plays off into a basin, then comes back around to the lake and has some nice lake shots, concluding with the monster #18 that involves chucking it across the entire pond.

A little too busy at times. Especially watch for people around the lake holes, as some love to fish and eat around them. Hole #18 may scare off novices, and I too have lost one of my discs to the drink there. Some of the back nine can get very water logged after a recent rain as it sits in a very low-lying area. On Hole #11 make sure you are throwing the disc towards the right as the basket is tucked into the outline of the woods there. Don't throw straight at the basket down a bit straight ahead as that is #13's basket. Can be tricky for those who have never played.

Good course and worth the drive if you have time to stop by. Will challenge just about everyone.

The course plays through a pretty multi use park with some rolling hills and some cool water hazards. The lake and creek come into play on a handful of holes making for some nice risk/reward decisions, 18 is a fun shot across the lake. The elevation is used well to add variety and challenge, and makes the course more fun. There are lots of fun ace runs, and a couple longer holes to add some challenge.

There are nice concrete tees here that are plenty large for the length of the holes and are in good shape. The signage is basic but adequate to know where to throw. The park is nicely maintained and scenic, with some areas of woods that can come into play on errant shots for a little bit of punishment.

The park has a lot going on, and the course conflicts with other uses a lot. There are a ton of safety issues, and it's likely that some holes will be unplayable due to picnickers by the lake on a nice summer day. The course is pretty easy, and very biased toward rhbh hyzer shots, and could really use some more shot shape variety and balance. The added 9 is not as well maintained or as easy to follow as the rest of the course, and doesn't really add much in terms of variety or fun.

This is a typical park course in a pretty but crowded park with some major safety issues. If you can play early in the morning or on a day where there won't be as many people using the park, it's a fun round, but it can be frustrating when many of the fairways are covered in people. Beginners will enjoy the generally shorter lengths and open fairways, though the water holes can be daunting. More experienced players won't find too much real challenge here, and there isn't enough variety to make it a must play.

This course makes good use of elevation changes and the layout is easy to follow even with some holes pretty close together. Also the course was pretty well maintained. Except hole 18, the course is pretty beginner friendly. None of the first 18 are very long so this is a good course for someone with shorter drives.

The hole maps at some of the tee boxes aren't very accurate. I had a few wholes where I had problems with a lot of people around the basket because the baskets are close to picnic shelters. The last 9 holes (A-I) would have been nearly impossible to navigate if it hadn't been for more experienced players letting me play with them, and these same holes needed mowed. Hole 18 (entirely across a pond) is very intimidating to a beginner, and it's easy to accidentally go for hole 13s basket when playing hole 11.

This is a good course that makes good use of a fairly small area. I like that there are 27 holes, but the last nine are hard to navigate and needed maintained a little better. I'll definitely go play again, but I may only play 1-18.

27 Holes, and with the temp nine they had for the tournament it was great two rounds and never the same hole. The course used great elevation changes and the trees as well to build shots. The tee pads were plenty long enough for a run-up. Great use of water which can scare people out of Ace Runs on some of the shorter holes. The new baskets were great.

I believe the parks department removed a lot of trees on the back of the original 9 which is a shame, it made a lot of shots open and very easy from what I understand. some of the tee-pads were very very narrow. On a hole or two the route you had to take to get to the basket was literally right over the head of the people teeing off on the next hole.

Overall it was a well designed and maintained course. There was a lot of thought put into how to use what they had. lots of solid elevation changes. If you are nearby this is a course to stop by and throw a round of 27 at.

Here is a fun to play, beginner friendly course set in a very nice park, with good tees, signs & baskets as well as stone blocks for benches. Mostly open with predominantly straight and hyzer shots, mild elevations, some trees/light woods and a few challenging pin placements add variety. Five holes around the pond, and perhaps two placements near the creek (#1, #10), provide good mental challenges; #18 being particularly exciting, every time.
The pondside shelters, facilities, nearby playground / mini water park and other activities, make this course not only family friendly but tournament friendly as well. Superbly maintained, the locals and Parks Dept. are clearly great advocates of the sport.

Not a lot can be considered a detriment.
While the addition of nine holes was good they strike me as contrived, offering little more challenge than distance and mild accuracy, over wide open gentle hills back and forth across a treeline / ditch. The layout works best if played 1-8, then holes A-I, and finally 9-18.
They recently removed what few unsightly trees added difficulty to holes 12 & 13!

I've been playing this course for ten years and always have fun, what with so plentiful birdie ops. This is a great course on which to develop and refine the fundamentals of the game.
It's also the course on which I scored my only ace (#9) as well as hit chains and basket twice in a round ...
Fun!

Very nice course. a lot of open shots. it is maintained quite well. there are some shots that are up hills and down hills, some through small gaps in trees. long course but worth the drive for sure.

i did not see a course map anywhere nor scorecards. other than that just the large amount of bird poop around the lake area.

holes 19-27 are all very open, a good time to really test your distance driving. GREAT course. grab some friends and go check out this course.

This course is well mainted with alot of friendly players. Nice concrete pads and tee signs on all 27 holes. This course provides a different shot on every hole. Holes 14-18 are located around a nice lake. Nice layout where the front 9 and back nine end up back at the parking lot. And you don't have to do alot of walking in between the holes.

Sometimes they have cross country meets and other events at this park that does cause some confusion during a round.

This is a course that is great for beginners (except hole 18). I've seen some of the local guys shoot like 12 under.

The Disc Golf Course at Yellow Creek Park in Owensboro offers a nice 18-hole layout that is well maintained and a lot of fun to play. There is a new nine that has been installed at Yellow Creek making for 27 total baskets. I only played the original layout of the first 18, so my review will not cover the new holes.

The original 18-hole layout is comprised of two 9-hole loops, each returning to the parking area. Yellow Creek uses Chainstar baskets that are in good shape. There are nice, level concrete pads and accurate tee signs on each of the holes. The course flows well and is very easy to navigate. The fairways are well defined, and there are no crossing fairways on the course. The only potential interference issue that I noticed was No12 & No13. These holes parallel each other in opposite directions, so if there are others playing, keep this in mind.

From the appearance of the course, it seems as though it is kept up very well. There were trash receptacles and benches scatter throughout the course. The benches were carved out of large rocks, a nice, unique feature of the course.

Although the course is designed over a relatively small piece of land, the designer does a great job of utilizing the moderate elevation changes to provide a variety of uphill, downhill, and side hill shots. As the name indicates, there is a creek that runs along several of the holes throughout the course. Baskets and fairways are strategically located near the creek where possible to offer an increased challenge. An errant shot near the creek could cost you a disc, and a stroke. Holes 14-18 were built around a small lake that offers a great visual appeal. Hole No18 offers a shot directly over the lake of around 230ft or so. Not much room for bail-out on this hole except for long. The basket sits on somewhat of a peninsula, so anything short, right, or left will most like be swallowed by the lake.

Yellow Creek is not a long course, with the longest hole on the original 18 layout being just under 350ft, but there is a nice variety of distances and shot types required. There were no real tight, technical holes on the course, but almost every hole had some type of obstacle to clear, whether throwing around the creek or lake, or a basket guarded by a group of large, mature trees.

No real cons to speak of at Yellow Creek. The course is a little on the short side, but given the amount of space here, the land was utilized as well as it could be. There was quite a bit of duck droppings around the lake, not terrible, but if it is anything like my local course, probably really bad in the fall. You may watch when picking up your discs or carry bags.

Overall, a nice course with great visual appeal. Definitely a par54 course, more experience players will most like shoot some low scores here, but the course should offer an adequate challenge for the average player. If you are in the Owensboro area, definitely check this one out.

This park has mostly open holes although there are trees in just the right spots to make you think about your shot. Holes 14-18 are around the pond which will also make you think. All of the holes have signs. I believe some of the holes have trash cans next to them. Some of the baskets are guarded by trees and one basket goes up a steep cliff. The course loops back to the parking lot after hole 9 and again after hole 14. The new 9 holes really let you air it out. The course is well maintained.

The teepads are like landing strips. They get the job done, but I prefer wider teepads. This doesn't really take away from the course though.

Great course in Owensboro! I like to come here like voting in Chicago....early and often! The ducks around hole 16 and 17 can be vicious. Watch out for bird feces on holes 16 and 17.

I have now played the new 9 holes so this is based on all 27.The new nine is a good fit for this course. The holes play longer than the signs say. the Second hole you throw between two mature trees into a field toward a ditch with a nice tree line, some players will clear the ditch others will face a tough up shot. Several Annies are needed to make birdies on a few holes A good use of the hills and ditch line on most of the holes. This is a triple loop that puts you back at the starting point. This is a well laid out course with lots shots required. Left turns hole 3 right turns hole 9,11 straights 1,2,5,6,several others uphill 4 downhills 5,8. Park is well maintained. The water shots 14-18 are great for the average rec player.

This course is not super long. 18 is scary when you are new to the sport I have given the lake several disc.The new nine are more open and easier for big arms.

This is where I learned the game, and that may skew me a bit. The Club does a great job with the course and tournaments.
