Other Thoughts:
First off, download UDisc app, excellent map that I was able to use to find all the tee's and baskets. And yes, you need it to find a few of the holes that are well hidden.
This is not a "public" course in that the park is owned by the residential neighborhood and not the city. But there are no gates and no one bothered us as we played.
Hole 1 throws across a flood plain that might be a pond parts of the year.
Hole 2 throws back across parallel to 1. Both holes have decent distance and guarded baskets.
Hole 3 throws down to a group of trees.
Hole 4 was tough to find, the tee was to the right of basket 4, and is a dogleg right, over a large tree and over the edge of the earth damn. It is hidden in the woods, there is no clear shot.
Hole 5 tee is down a short path, it is actually platform on the hill, the basket is over the creek and back up the hill a little. The undergrowth is clear near the basket, but don't hit the line, you are in trouble. I did not see a line to the basket, just threw an upshot down the path and an upshot to the basket.
Then back out into the open, hole 6 is probably the longest hole throwing down the path to the basket near #2 tee box.
Then a long walk to 3 simple holes
#7 is a short slight right to left shot, the first half of the fairway is mowed, the 2nd half is natural and has some rough. (jeans recomended)
#8 throw deeper into the rough from the mowed area. Another shot similar to 7.
Then the shortest hole on the course, hole 9 is an under 200 foot shot from the rough area throwing across the small creek into an open area at the base of the damn for a small lake. I threw every disc I had on me running for an ace.
In all, not a bad course if you know where you are throwing.
Would I play here again.
No, while interesting, it is sort of out of the way to get too and you run the risk of being kicked out.
