Brown Elementary

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 14, 2024 Played the course:once

Pros:

--Baskets. They are older but still seem to catch OK.

Cons:

--Nothing is marked. There are no tee pads, no tee signs, no numbers on baskets and no map. Using UDisc helps, but the navigation is still difficult. That's hard to imagine in basically an open field, but you will spend more time searching for the "tee pad" and then trying to figure out which basket you are throwing to than playing the holes.
--Manmade obstacles everywhere, from buildings to playground equipment. Hole 1 has a direct line through a seating area. Throw wide right and follow the walking path instead. Then 6 has a direct line through playground equipment. Again, go right but not very much because of an OB fence. These two poorly designed holes are the best holes on the course.
--No trees, water or elevation.
--No drinking water or restroom. No benches at the "tee" pads, but there is seating nearby.
--On school grounds (behind the building), so hours are limited. Even outside of school hours, there is a good chance the playground equipment will be in use, making much of the course unplayable.

Other Thoughts:

--There are 9 baskets, but it's questionable to call this a course. As a practice area or for safari golf, this might works OK if you find it empty. I was lucky enough to do that on Thursday afternoon during Spring Break.
