Pros:

Many chances to crank on your distance drivers.

Cons:

(Too) Many chances to crank on your distance drivers.(?)

Other Thoughts:

Course is set in the sloping open space, including some pockets of shule and trees, above the parking lot of a large multi-purpose park, including a small lake/large pond (not anywhere near play).

Single (natural) tee, single basket/position. Plays primarily in a clockwise direction across, up, across, weaving back down, across the space above the parking lot.

As this is the first review of the course, a bried hole-by-hole description:
#1 Long, open, up a moderate slope, basket just barely inside a treeline at the end.
#2 Moderate length, upslope, treeline along the entire leftside, open straight and right, the basket deeper and sharp left into the treeline at the end.
#3 Quite long and open, upslope initially, then flat, basket near the edge of a treeline. Good views of lake/entire park at about the peaking midpoint.
#4 Short hole, flat, low canopy and the odd scattered tree requires the throw be almost dead straight.
#5 Moderate length, tee within treeline but window is wide and not too far, basket straight ahead in open, flat.
#6 Good length, slightly downslope, open initially, then an opening in a wall of shule begins a long, narrowing funnel to a basket guarded by some small support trees - probably my favourite hole on the course.
#7 The tee is atop a small mound, with a large bush in front of the mound. The basket is not far away to the left, but blind, and in a small green, surrounded by thick shule. An S-shape fading just before it reaches the wall of trees in front of you (RHBH), and spike hyzer (LHBH), are the likely ways to attack.
#8 Similar/different than the prior hole. Flat (no mound, no bush), moderate length, again basket blind, small green, thick shule. S-shape ot spike hyzer again.
#9 A very, very long, flat hole. Shuleline nearly the entire length of the left side. A copse of trees at about the 1/3rd mark on the right, later supported by rightside shule. As long as you avoid any severe left fade and miss the first tree-grouping, its just throw, throw again ...

It's ... okay, serves a purpose, in an area with few other nearby discing options.
