Pros:

The Rec Center did what it could with the space that it had. The course signage is nice and the pads, though tiny, are concrete and had good grip. There was ample parking is the Rec Center Lot but if there are youth baseball/softball games, I suspect this parking might not fall within the Pros.

#7 is a 290 ft shot that plays along a pond and is perhaps the best hole in terms of technical challenge for any player.

Cons:

I have to agree with Magictenor1, the design is bananas. The course is basically shoe-horned into the interstitial space between a softball field, a very small dog park, a soccer field and the very limited space around the recreation center itself. #1's Fairway is a narrow (~100 ft) grass strip between the main ingress road and the parking lot that requires a RHBH player to hyzer out over the road. Holes 2 & 3 are outright safety hazards. #2 requires a slight uphill shot that, depending on your handedness, either flys over the parking area and up towards soccer field and or over the dog park and walking path leading to the athletic fields. The basket is near a building (possibly concession stand) and fence encircling the soccer field. A poor shot may easily reach the children's outdoor play ground equipment. Oye. Hole #3, for LHBH is a hyzer over the softball field as is Hole #4. Hole #4 effectively runs parallel to the left field to home base line and has dense trees along the right side that encourages throwers to go over the field for a full flight. Hole 5 is a 75' wide fairway straight shot on a right to left slope. A throw to the right will land the residential neighbor's front yard and too far left may land on the sidewalk that connects different rec center features. Watch of walkers. Hole 6, a 163 ft downhill, was the least concerning shot on the course. Holes 8 & 9 basically throw next to one another in opposite directions with a slight slope toward the pond. 8's basket is near an exit to the indoor facilities so be aware of people exiting the building.

Other Thoughts:

Leave your high speed discs at home and make this a putter only outing. It is a beautiful setting and nice oppotunity to shape putter shots. The potential conflict with other users is real and high speed discs pose too great a risk to other rec center users to use it unless nobody is around.

Bizarre

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 1, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nice clean park. Restrooms. Good signs
Nice baskets and tee pads. Navigation and flow are good

Cons:

Ridiculous design. Number 1s fairway is a busy road. #2 throws over a dog park. #3 between the dog park and a field down a road. This continues. Only a few holes do not have issues

Other Thoughts:

Hard to rate this one lol. It has a lot of good features but the design is crazy. I played on a Friday afternoon about 215 so course and park not too busy. Still had to wait a couple times for cars and people. Course would be unplayable at a busy time. Ball fields walking path ,roads and dog park in Play.
