Pros:
There are two pros to this course:
1.) It's perfect for field work, getting in practice on a "course" that is essentially a few wide open fields with a couple of trees and chain-link fence obstacles sprinkled in. You can play it as a real course and follow the map, or you can use it for what it really is, a practice course, and throw multiple shots from all over, making it up as you go.
2.) The other pro is that this course is home to the largest disc golf tee in...the world? Seriously, it's about 6 feet wide and about 25 feet long. It would've been nice to use that concrete for the other 8 holes, which have no tees, but that would've deprived the world of this amazing tee!
Cons:
1.) The baskets are in bad shape.
2.) The course is very spread out, with long walks in between #2 and #3, #3 and #4, and #9 and the parking lot. Navigation is not possible without a course map. Tees are not marked for most holes, so make it up as you go or guess based on the course map.
3.) Lots of poison ivy and underbrush in between the #3 and #4 holes and to the left of the #5 fairway. If you hyzer your tee or approach shot into the woods on #5, as I did once and my son did the other day, disc retrieval is impossible.
Other Thoughts:
For practice and for bombing drives on a surprisingly long course, East Wake Middle works. Examples of extra holes to add, just for fun and practice:
1.) After finishing at the #2 basket, walk back to the super tee and throw towards the practice basket before trekking to hole #3.
2.) After finishing #3, walk to the entrance to the football field and bomb a drive across the field to the #4 basket, before walking across and down the other side of the field to the #4 tee area.
3.) You get the idea. Find good places to grip it and rip it. Also note that the #5 basket is not where it appears on the course map. It's actually at the bottom of the hill, on the edge of the property. The map says this is a 250-foot hole. It's actually about 500 feet.
