Practice/school course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jun 24, 2016 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Nice maintenance, and unlike many school or local park-type courses, isn't cramped in badly.

Cons:

Flat and currently a number of open throws

Other Thoughts:

First, my rating is based on the school's stated intention to add a bit of landscaping, though it doesn't include the rumored adding of another three holes. As the course currently stands, I would rate it only 1.5.

2018 Update: the school never got in any additional landscaping, and got a new principal, so it's looking unlikely they will add any in the future, so I downgraded my rating. The path on hole six is beginning to become overgrown.

At the moment, six of the nine holes have no obstacles whatsoever, and one of the remaining 3's only "obstacle" is the fact that the basket is on an "island" in the middle of the parking lot. Holes 6 and 7 are the only ones that have any obstacles, but they're rather nice holes, albeit with real tall rough that's easy to lose a disc in.

The holes are all in the short-to-mid range length, and essentially flat. Given the casual nature of the course, I don't find the natural tees a problem, especially since it's unlikely to get so much traffic that the tees wear out. Since it's mostly open, having blue-topped baskets isn't a serious negative that it would be on a heavily wooded course. (I have an issue with many Discraft baskets blending into the background.)

If the course gets a few trees, it will be a real nice beginner/school PE course. If they add in the extra three baskets in the woods they mentioned in passing, then it could actually turn into a decent for-locals course. But it's unlikely to ever become a destination course.
