Pros:
In an area starving for another disc golf course, this is a gem for us hungry throwers.
- 2 baskets for every hole (long & short)
- The longer baskets are high end Mach VIIs while closer baskets are the single chain variety.
- Variety of terrain on each hole
- Pars for longer baskets are appropriate
- Great mix of both short and long holes
- Challenging for both Intermediates and studs
- A beautiful woodsy area
- OB lines delineated by yellow ropes (lots of OB!)
- Properly placed Mandos
- An amazing workout for the quads and hams
Cons:
- T-Boxes are a work in progress (they're gonna be great though)
- The $20 parking fee the Town of Sandwich charges (which i why I went off-season for free!)
- NOT a family friendly course (which is more of a Pro than a Con in my mind)
Other Thoughts:
Kudos to the creators of this course (whom I met during our round). Creating a challenging course in an area that was screaming out for it. This course is a blast. If you like wide open fairways, go somewhere else. This is tunnel shot after tunnel shot, with strategically placed trees that you will love to hate.
To me, it is a mix of Plainville, Franklin and Devens, all tossed together. Woodsy, tight lines, serious elevation changes, all with the new course feel (meaning you will end up in a shrubbery, and possibly trip over a newly hewn stump, and maybe get poison ivy to boot).
I am considering this course now a "Destination Course". Make a day of it. I have no problem driving 1.5 hours to play this twice through (Longs, then shorts), scarf down a sub, then head over to Burgess Park in Marston's Mills (12 min drive) for the 3rd round of the day. Well worth the commute.
Great job. Thanks for building this!!!
