Pros:
Pulling into the lot for Inskip Park Junior , the name of the park is all you need to know . There is a pool featured that sits off to the back right of the first tee and behind the #9 basket . The pool looks real nice , especially for the kids . The course , well , I have to grade for everyone . This would be the park that you would take your 10 year old to play . or just goof around with if you own 2 disc that you carry around with you . If the objective is to introduce disc gold to the kids , then objective met . I thought it was entertaining to me that the tee pads are small and circular cement . This was a first for me . I didn't like them just because even though the holes are all short and I could throw them all from a stationary stance , little kids ( Juniors ) have to learn to throw from a run up . Okay , the baskets are your basic older design . Nondescript and not numbered . Still okay for beginners . The signage is actually a treat . It looks like they had a contest to see who could color in the best basket signs ( the best feature ) , describing the length and tee location from both locations . SURPRISE , they have a short and LONG tee , and a NEXT arrow to help you navigate . Remember to look at these . I am not making fun of it ,. The sign even reads on the side Inskip Youth , so they are not trying to pass this course off as something that it isn't . There is actually some good use of the elevation here . I was actually hoping that they would feature a water carry hole that would turn out to be one of those fish ponds that you see at carnivals . Pull a fish , get an ACE . haha . Just kidding . Anyway , the holes are pretty vanilla in the they throw mostly straight ahead , just some length difference , maybe a little up or downhill and with a few small trees or brush blocking a direct path to the basket . The one hole that was a little out of place was #5 . A narrow fairway flanked by small trees on both sides , 155' for the short tees and 235' for the longs . A little challenging for a birdie because of the low canopy that can bat down your first throw . The first tee is a easy drive 45' or 120' with no obstruction . The last hole is a throw coming out of the woods downhill to a basket with a tree beside it 110' or 160' . Don't take this course for anything that it is or isn't . It's a great intro course for kids , families after dinner , or ACE RUN CITY for the bigger kids or adults . Not much chance of losing a disc . It is a very quick play . I played it by myself in under 25 minutes without a map .
Cons:
#1 course is even short for the kids . #2 Tee pads could be a little dangerous . No amenities , which is okay , because the play is so quick , you don't need benches or trash cans . Carry out what you carry in . #3 most important . Kids , color us out of towners a map so we can navigate the course a little easier .
Other Thoughts:
All in all , this is an okay course . It will appeal to some of the locals and elementary kids . This might be fun if you are waterlogged from the pool next door and have to be out of the water for a half hour . This would also be a perfect course for your first ace . I do have to address this : 2.94 ,which is the grade for Inskip's course . Really !!?? Admiral Farragut Park and Plumb Creek are rated less than this course . My Recommendation : unless bagging a quickie course there is no reason to stop here , unless you want to be hassled by the pool security guard when trying to find where the course is . JUST DRIVE ON BY .
