Three ace runs

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 2, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is well-suited to introducing children to the game of disc golf. If you are an experienced player, what's not to like about three sub-100' ace runs?

Silver-painted baskets were numbered, mounted level, and caught well. Tees are marked with a numbered post and two paver stones. The paver stones seem to be intended as a tee marker rather than teeing surface. The course is well separated from other activities.

The design does as much as possible with a very limited site. Hole #1 has a pine tree guarding the RHBH hyzer approach., and hole #3 has a few small trees guarding the basket. There are no long walks between holes, and the course is right next to the parking lot.

Zero risk of disc loss unless you get one stuck in a tree.

Cons:

This is a very small course. There are only 3 holes. The total course length is less than 300 feet. Hole #2 is 86' of completely wide open. The course is completely flat.

Other Thoughts:

Grab a putter and toss three ace runs. There are worse ways to spend a few minutes. When you are done, walk to the other end of the parking lot and play the main Broken Chains course.

Grass tees are in good shape and should not be a problem for such a short course. There are no hole maps, but do you really need a hole map when the basket is 95 feet in front of you?

I debated what to rate this course. Since there is nothing glaringly wrong, I assigned a rating of 1.5 ("passable"). If someone rated the course lower, I certainly would not argue.
