Chickamauga Dam Park reviews

Great temp course
Reviewed:
Played on:Nov 24, 2023
Played the course:once
Pros:
-This is an 18 hole temporary course played on the south side of the Chickamauga Dam, most commonly assembled for the Belchin' Turkey over the Thanksgiving weekend
-Excellent use of available terrain. The first 6 holes involve a significant amount of elevation changes in both directions, with the rest of the course being much more gentle
-The temp baskets I played on were DGAs in great care and repair
-The temp tee signs were accurate with good distances and OB clearly listed
-Great variety of shots, ranging from under 200' to over 600' in the AM layout, even further for the longs
-Great use of trees and water, allowing for common sense OB and mandos that shape play and create challenge without being unreasonable
-Lots of parking
-Rest rooms available down by the lake

Cons:
-Most tees are grass, but this is a temp course so....
-I wish this could be a permanent course. It would lose some of the charm, but it would get a lot of play

Other Thoughts:
I understand that this course has been a fixture of the Chattanooga disc golf seen, and I can see why. The variety and challenge of the course is interesting and fun, adding the great atmosphere of tournament play. If you get the opportunity to play this course when it's available, take your chance. The only way I would rate this higher is if it became permanent.
