Pros:

This course has a lot of potential. The holes themselves are mostly all well designed and the teepees and signs are "unique" but overall pretty alright.

Lots of parking and camping available in the park is a big plus. I traveled to this course with a 30 foot camper and access was very easy.

Baskets were in very good condition and many of them had flags which helped with wind calls.

Cons:

This course has been completely neglected by the local dg community and parks department. As of June 1, the grass had not been cut at all. It is June (summer aka peak season), there is no excuse for knee high grass. I literally pulled over 30 ticks off of my legs on the front 9....and i skipped hole 7 because the entire hole had not been mowed at all and i pulled 3 ticks off of me from the road to the tepid (about 10 feet). This was extremely disappointing.

The tee signs are really nice but half the time you have to walk around the corner to see what they actually say. Whoever installed these signs was not experienced enough to be trusted with that task.

Course flow was terrible. There are several transitions that don't make any sense and there are no signs or markers to help you navigate the course. On top of that, you guessed it, all of the transition paths were overgrown and a huge pain to walk.

Other Thoughts:

This course has tons of potential and could be a 4+ star course IF it was taken care of. In my opinion the parks department should be ashamed of this courses current state. This place is an embarrassment to the disc golf scene which in this part of the country is usually pretty good. If you want to play a quality course in Kansas drive to KC or Emporia and save yourself some serious frustration.
