Pros:
-Loved the Veteran baskets
-Front 9 has a few very challenging holes.
-Back 9 is a welcome relief after "hiking" the front 9.
-Tee boxes were awesome.
-Signage was adequate.
-Maps that are a available are good.
Cons:
-Front 9 is in tough terrain.
-Difficult to navigate between some of the holes on the front 9 if you are not familiar.
-No indication of which pin location is in play on each hole.
-Many of the front 9 pins could not be seen from the tee box which led to a lot of extra walking to figure out where we were throwing.
-Lots of opportunities on front 9 to lose discs on the blind shots to pin locations.
-The back 9 was almost too easy compared to front.
Other Thoughts:
This was a very challenging course from hole 4-10 in my opinion. The front 9 definitely should not be played alone your first time out. I would advise getting with a local so you know where to throw on blind holes. I would also suggest using a spotter at the goal for each drive to make sure you can see where discs land. It is hard enough to figure out where the goals are, and even harder to find discs that skip or roll away from where you drive. Also navigation from hole 4 to 10 is not always obvious. There was 2-3 times where we had to refer to the map, and we still got turned around going from 7 to 8 even with map in hand.
One good thing I thought about as we played was you really could play the front 9 twice if you wanted a bit of a challenge, or you could play the back 9 twice if you wanted a more leisurely round. With so many disc golf courses available in the area, I am not sure why you would want 1 course for both options, but you definitely have it here.
I think hole 5 was the one that I both loved and hated the most. This time of year, you stand on the elevated tee box and stare out at a sea of green bushes and see no hint of where the goal is. So, I hated having to throw blind with only the sound of the someone standing at the basket as a guide for the throw. But, I loved watching my disc fly over the greenery, and in turn watching my friends' drives flying in as I spotted for them. It was a unique hole.
If you get a chance, I would recommend playing this one WITH A LOCAL. If you are bent on going without one, at least take friends that can help spot discs on drives so you don't spend your whole day searching bushes. I would not recommend playing this course alone on your first trip.
All in all, I thought it was a good course. Not in my favorites, but it definitely stands out in my memories of courses played.
