The definition of open 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 26, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course is located on a beautiful plot of land near the entrance of campus and near a nice housing development.

The baskets are top of the line DISCatchers and are in great shape.

There are tee signs for each hole and indicators on the ground marking the tee.

Honestly the beauty of the place is what the course has going for it the most. I really enjoyed my time on the property probably more so than playing the course. There is a nice pond that comes into play on a few holes with a fountain.

Cons:

OPEN. Too open. I think there are only 4-5 trees that even remotely come in play, but at the most they might only force a straddle putt. From short/medium to long, you'll be bombing drives in an open field.

The tees are natural and are muddy. Most of the fairways are soggy and you'll get a little wet unless there has been a drought.

There was a drainage "creek" that was too large to jump when I was there. It prevented you from walking directly to the basket on holes 1 and 9.

I'm not sure what the rest of campus looks like, but as beautiful as this piece of land is, I bet there is some better disc golf land that could have been used.

Other Thoughts:

You'll likely enjoy your time admiring the houses and land, but that may be it. Golf is a little simple here, but unlike most simple 9-holers, it will let you bomb some drivers, even for the really big arms. (2 holes near 500ft).

Nice concrete pads, a few bridges and some more creativity and this course could be a lot better. As it stands, it's a touch below average.
