Pros:
-The ninth basket can be used as a practice basket for putting
-Great for losing discs if you enjoy that kind of a course
Cons:
Where do I begin?
-Even with a spotter who sees exactly where your disc lands, you still might not be able to find your disk
-Giant thorny, blackberries throughout the course. Are they just in the rough? No, they are everywhere! Including growing through some of the baskets.
-No signs, even though that wouldn't really help as the paths are almost impossible to walk through without ripping up your pants and shirts
-No tee pads
-2 bent baskets
-3 or 4 missing baskets
-The online map hardly helps.
Other Thoughts:
5 and a half years ago The Valkyrie Kid looked on the bright side and saw the potential that lies at Takena Landing. He left an encouraging and positive review giving the course suggestions and giving me hope that today I'd show up to a better place. Unfortunately that simply was not the case. The blackberries have gotten bigger, the rough rougher, vandals have done more vandalizing, and it's simply a sad place.
For the first time in my modest list of reviews, I'm leaving a 0.0. This is an abysmal course. No other way to put it.
It was this bad in December with a couple inches of leaves covering the ground, yet I am confident that it would only get worse in the Spring/Summer when the blackberries are bigger and stronger and the poison oak is coming into its season.
Perhaps if a team of dedicated brush whackers were to unite and spend a week chomping through this wooded piece of untamed land it might be playable, but for now, I recommend sticking with the nice course across the river.
