Pros:
- For a short 6-holer, this course has a good mix of open fields and woods shots which can be used for short-approach practice or teaching kids and beginners the fundamentals of disc golf without blocking up the full 18-hole course next door.
- For older disc golfers who may benefit from a little warmup session before throwing full-power drives, this course offers a nice 15-minute warmup that's a little more engaging than throwing at a practice basket.
Cons:
- The rough here is really rough in the summertime. Thick weeds, dense thorny vines, and hidden water holes await the disc golfer who puts one into the bushes.
- The "tee pads" are basically repurposed horseshoe pits.Too small for any kind of runup to a drive. It may be better/safer to tee off next to the pit and not inside it.
- The signage and path to next tee are a bit difficult to follow. Walking from Hole 3 to Hole 4 requires a jaunt over the river and through the woods that isn't super obvious without a Udisc GPS-guided map.
Other Thoughts:
This isn't a stop on the pro-tour. This is a 6-hole practice course. In the scope of being a practice course it is excellent at what it does. The holes are short, the throws are mostly over wide open areas, and the course is located in a well maintained public park with playgrounds, sports facilities, picnic areas, and other amenities. If you were looking for a place in the local area to introduce beginners or very young kids to the sport of disc golf in a low-pressure situation, this is a good place to start. You can throw and learn over here without the pressure and embarassment of watching seasoned players crush drives on the 18-hole course on the other side of the park. Then when you're ready to take on a full game, a nice full course is a few minute's walk away right there in the same park complex.
