Pros:
- Nice Prodigy Baskets
- Different length tees for pro and am
- Simple beginner friendly open course, great if you are learning how to drive for the first time, or to practice specific shots in a repetitive manor
- They have a mailbox near hole one with course maps, small pencils, and score cards
- Clear and cut out of bounds, train tracks, fences, tree line
- Parking located right at the beginning of Hole 1 and end of Hole 9
- Pavilion near the beginning to chill at if you need to, I believe there is a porta potty next to it too
- Signage at every single hole, looks nice and is helpful navigating the course
- Hole number 7's basket on a mound is rather cool
Cons:
- Tee boxes are not ideal, let me explain, they are wooden landscape timbers staking off the the rectangle of the tees location, they are aging and beginning to rot away
- The park is cluttered with the three types of golf they provide, and it is kind of confusing
- The course flows, and then it get's really confusing in spots, just refer to the map and it won't be horrible
- It is a little tough to make par on current holes, like going uphill 500 feet with three par (Hole 5) is tough
- Course is rather bland, minus elevation and a few trees, with the wind that blew the day I played, this course could be mistaken to be Kansas
- This course is in a rough part of town, the guide that took me there said to not play there after 6PM
- The course has tall fencing on the northeast and eastern side of the course blocking off an old school, if your disc goes over, count it as lost
- Placement of course in town is not super hard to get to, but it also is not something someone from out of town would be likely to show up at
- Little cramped, not a huge problem, but I would not want to drive near someone one hole over or head on, just in case
- Not anything super fun for a moderate to pro player, only feels right to use it as a warm up or training field for newbies
Other Thoughts:
- Great warm up or practice location, especially if you were wanting to practice doing repetitive shot from a specific location, due to it's unpopularity, no one would get in the way.
- If you are looking for real challenging Disc Golf, head to Stuart Nelson Park or Fort Massac across the river, because the only competition here is who can out drive who
