- Plenty of parking available.
- Practice basket.
- Layout flows well and is easy to follow.
- Tee pads and baskets are in great condition.
- Multiple tee pads for each hole.
- Great mix of open and wooded golf!

- Some of the holes play near walking paths. Be aware of pedestrians!
- Course can get a little soggy when raining.
- Bugs in the summer

O'Hauser is what you want to see when it comes to "park style" disc golf! A mix of wooded and open shots with multiple tee pads on each hole. Can play challenging from the longs but pretty beginner friendly from the shorts. Another reason Wisconsin is underrated in regards to the disc golf scene!

O'Hauser Park occupies a large, flat piece of land just west of Appleton, WI. It is easy to get to, just minutes off of I-41. The park has several baseball fields and a tennis court, but most of the space is taken up with 18 holes of disc golf.

Despite being located in a multi-use park, this course tries to cater to serious disc golfers - and mostly pulls it off. Nine of the holes (intermixed throughout the course) have three teepads and three pin positions, while the other nine have two teepads and two pin positions. The shortest teepad and pin position on each hole are denoted as Red, the next longest Blue, and the longest Gold (when applicable).

All of the teepads are large flat pieces of concrete with foul lines. The baskets are Mach X models that were all in good shape. There is generally only one basket installed per hole. The course map indicates that the Red pin positions are supposed to be used in the winter, the Blue positions in the summer, and the Gold positions for tournaments. When I played in late September, I experienced some variation with many holes in the Blue pin position, but some in the Red position and I believe a couple in the Gold position. This was a bit annoying from the perspective of tracking my round accurately, but I can't complain too much because the pin position for each hole was accurately noted on a little wheel attached to each tee sign.

Speaking of the tee signs...probably my favorite part about this course. They are these beautiful tall and narrow pieces of art that are mounted to the top of a wooden post at each teepad. They show the hole number and par, a map of the hole, and distance to each possible pin position from the current tee. Several holes have OB areas which are also clearly marked. The posts also have the pin position wheel, some paint to show which tee you are at, and little hooks that you can use to hang your disc bag. I am so used to just setting mine on the ground that I did not even notice the hooks for the first several holes.

Most of the other amenities here are great too. There is a large kiosk with a detailed course map. There is a practice basket. There is a restroom at the front of the course and a porta potty near hole 9. There is also apparently a small pro shop in the restroom building, although it was closed when I played on a Sunday morning. Several trash cans and even recycle bins are scattered around the course. Each tee area has a nice park-style bench.

The actual disc golf here is a pretty good mix of surprisingly long technical holes, with a few more open shots mixed in. The Red layout is short enough to be approachable for relatively inexperienced players, though it is definitely still not the easiest round. The Blue layout is longer and tougher and I think the Gold layout would be quite a challenge for many DG'ers. I played the Blue layout and it was a tougher round than I was expecting, even after reading previous reviews.

There are a good mix of left turns, right turns, and straight throws. Almost every hole will require you to hit your chosen line or pay a price, and on many of the tighter holes I only saw one line to hit. The woods are mostly deciduous, with thick younger growth areas forming punishing rough on many holes but not hiding discs. A small creek runs through the park, potentially coming into play to the side of the fairway on several holes. This creek is shallow and narrow enough that you can probably pull discs back out of it. One hole that was kind of memorable was #6, which plays 300'ish (+/- 50' or so depending on layout) with the creek on your right and thick woods on your left.

The park is clearly well maintained and has some nice flower beds and other landscaped features scattered throughout the course. A few large rocks also add to the aesthetic.

I noticed a couple of safety issues. The most glaring one for me was a throw across a walking/bicycling path on the approach to hole 5's basket, with one side of the path blind (it runs between a thick line of pines and the tennis courts). Thin those pines out and I would feel better. The baseball diamonds could also come into play on a couple of holes.

There is not really any noticeable elevation change here. A couple of holes have raised teepads or pin positions, but overall there isn't enough to have a major effect on play.

This course has the same Next Tee signs that I had encountered at Zobel Park the previous day - little arrows hanging below the baskets on keychains. Like at Zobel, several of these were missing or pointing the wrong direction when I played and I think something a little more robust would be better. There are a couple of other directional signs scattered where needed throughout the course and overall it is usually pretty clear where to go, but I did double check the map a couple of times (a couple of longer walks exist between holes 6-7 and 11-12).

This course costs $3/day to play. They have the most detailed tracking for this that I have seen: You have to place your payment in an envelope, then fill it out with your name and the date and deposit in a drop box. There is also a little stub on the envelope that you tear off and keep with you as pay to play proof during your round. There is a reminder on each tee sign that this proof is required. The reminders seemed like overkill to me, but I was still impressed by how thorough this process was. One of the previous reviewers mentioned a course map on the back of the stub, which to be honest I didn't even notice!

I was between a 3.5 and 4.0 for this one. The designers and locals here have done a fantastic job using the land available to provide a challenging course, and the amenities/maintenance are probably the best I have seen at a multi-use park. That said, in the end it is still a flat course with only a couple of holes I remember well (even now, only 3 weeks later). In a few months, I think I might only remember the tee signs. In the end the multiple layouts and a couple over-the-top amenities that I didn't even notice pushed me to a 4.0 rating, but I'm not sure how this course could score higher than that.

If I lived within a half hour to hour's drive, I would probably buy the $25 annual pass and come play here all the time. If you are visiting the area, O'Hauser is definitely worth an O'play!

(4.245 Rating) A profoundly well executed course with three layout options.
- AMENITIES AND EXTRAS - The main reason I am scoring O'Hauser as a tweener 4.25 instead of a high 4.0 is due to the insane amount of fine touches this course has. The course has just about all the comforting touches one can think up. Detailed course map next to the parking area. 3 practice baskets in a large field. The $3 greens fee comes with a high-quality score card with map and pencil. There are restrooms, shelters and picnic tables by tee (1) and Basket (18). There are 2 or 3 large concrete tees with an extended foul line on every hole. There are benches and bag hangers by every tee and a vast majority are shaded. A couple of the tee areas had large boulders flanking the tee and can be sat on or hold a bag. Signage is excellent and I'll touch on this more later in the pros. Baskets are Mach Xs and I believe I saw extra Mach III baskets on 3 or 4 holes. There are tons of alternate basket placements as well. Every hole had at least 2 and several had 4 placements. Last, I'll note that there's apparently a pro shop too. Overall, I would say that the amenities and extras here are tied for 2nd most I have ever experienced. On par with the IDGC and more over the top compared to notable places such as Hobbs Farm and The Canyons. The only place that I've played that has coddled me more has been Rollin Ridge. Come-on O'Hauser, where's your frig'n bar! Overall, the amenities are a plus 5.
- PAY TO PLAY MAINTENANCE - Sign me up for the pay to play experience. I can count the number of courses I've played tended this well on one hand with three missing fingers. I wasn't sure what to expect dropping $3 in the box by tee (1), but man have they gone to town. Professional landscaping was evident everywhere. Mulched fairways, flower gardens, wildflowers and landscaped tree beds. Large landscaping boulders were in several locations and there were two terraced greens using large rocks. I often wonder if the money I put in is going back to the course and here it seems like someone is triple matching whatever that has been put in.
- SIGNAGE AND NAVIGATION - Near flawless. As noted above, a conspicuously placed course map posted between the parking and tee (1). Aesthetically pleasing tee signage with all the info one will need including pin placement indicators. Baskets have next tee direction arrows hanging from the basket wires. Several transitions in the woods have intuitive mulched paths between holes. My only complaint is that I did notice that a few of the tee signs are outdated as they don't have a few new placements indicated.
- HOLE VARIETY - Besides elevation, this course has almost every play type in the book. Open bombs to tight technical shot shaping lines. Left hooks, right hooks and a few slight dog leg par 4s. Great hole distance variations from plus 600 to sub 200. Basket guarding is fantastic in numerous instances with pockets and manmade elevated greens. Overall, I would give the variety between a 3.75 and 4.0 out of 5.
- NATURAL BEAUTY - Outstanding Beauty, mostly due to the professional landscaping as noted above. I scored it a 4.125 which puts it into the 90 to 95 percentile range on my spreadsheet's curve. Every hole looks well above average although none I would describe as bombshell looks. I still vividly remember all the holes three months later.
- CHALLENGING - I played the Gold layout, which is nine Gold tees and nine Blue tees. Yeah it humbled me. Mostly technical in nature, but being able to bomb plus 400 will definitely help. I loved the shot shaping wooded lines. I used every trick I knew and every disc in my bag. I was a total of 4 over on the nine Gold tees and even from the Blues. I did think the line difficulty was flawed on a couple Gold tees, but overall the extra Gold tees were a satisfying amp up of the gameplay. From the Gold layout, I would thoroughly expect mid-level Advanced players struggling to stay pace with par. This is going to be a fantastic training ground for these types of players to hone-in on their skills and to expand their game. If I ever make my way back here, I'll likely stick with the all Blue layout, which appears to be a solid Intermediate level challenge imo.
- SKILL LEVEL FRIENDLY - As noted under my amenities pro, three sets of tees on nine holes and two tees on the rest. Why aren't more courses doing this? In addition to the Gold and Blue layout discussed above, there is a Red level layout, which is a sub 5,000 footer with a couple Rec par 4s. Nearly every skill level will be able to find a layout that suits their skill level here.

It's not blessed with epic terrain, and then I had to fish for issues.
- FLAT - This is probably the biggest non-issue that effects my rating of the course. This is not exotic terrain. I don't think any of the holes change by more than 15 feet in grade. There are no epic lake clears or even stream crossings in play. It's excellent disc golf play and all, but the terrain is what's holding this course from being thee elite of thee elite.
- IFFY LINES - As noted, I played the Gold layout. Several I felt were too luck based. Gold (3) is a really poor hole to the far basket placement. The tight S shaped fairway's end is just too far deep and curved for any disc to get close. Hole (14's) line from the gold tee is a joke. The fairway is basically a Z shape and is almost 400 feet long. A worthless tee option imo.
- MOSQUITOS - I wish I would have brought some deet with me this morning. I played 4 courses on this morning (O'Hauser was last), and the mosquitoes were the worst here, although not by that much. As noted already, a mostly flat course. It probably holds water in spots in and around the course. It also rained a lot a couple days prior to my visit. Bring bug spray or blood transfusion equipment. I don't take off rating points for this.
- BEGINNER FRIENDLY - I personally think the course is too complex for brand new players. Novices will likely enjoy the Red tee layout though. I don't take off rating points for this.
- FINISH FROM PARKING - Basket (18) is 400 feet from the parking area and you have to walk through the practice area. As you can see, I am really reaching for things to complain about.
- TIME PLAY - I spent 90 minutes solo on this course early in the morning and had no one in front of me the whole round. I also don't take off rating points for this, but be cognizant that rounds here will take a little longer than normal.

The highest rating score I've ever given to a flat course. Thus better than these notable southern flat gems I've played; The Admiral, Oldsmar and T2. Without question the best of the ten courses I've played between Appleton and Fond du Lac. This is the 5th course I've played in the DGCR top 25 for Wisconsin and it's my 3rd favorite. Behind Wilderness and Rollin Ridge, but ahead of Zobel and Dretzka on my personal ledger. It appears that this course has gone through constant and substantial upgrades over the past decade and there's really nothing left to add. So, in my opinion, it has reached it's max potential in its rating… unless a 50-foot ridge magically appears in the heart of the layout someday. For those traveling along I41, this is a must play course. It's worth driving well over an hour to go see. It will be enjoyed by just about every type of player too as the round intensity can be dialed up or down to suit one's taste. I am so grateful to have made this memorable course, my 500th milestone course.

O'hauser plays thru a mostly Wooded Park Property off Irish Road in the Town of Menasha

Pretty good Terrain variety at O'
Dense Woods
Excellent Park × Woods Fusionz
Creek along a few Holes
and some Prairie Restoration

Fun, Balanced, Diverse, and Challenging Design. Can't say enough Good things about what has been done for O'hauser Discgolf

Replayability factor is excellent here
Multiple Tees offered, frequent Basket position changes, and O' always seems to have something Fresh happening

Excellent demonstration of DG Stewardship!!!
Beautification of this Property through the confluence of Conservation & Discgolf is Inspiring

McNasty Underbrush has been cleared out on the 'Park' holes, between the Creek and Irish Rd, upgrading the Pretty Topography Aesthetics offered out at O'

Few Dozen Pines have been Planted out around the 'Park' holes, should help suck up Puddles that linger out there in Spring, and add to the Aesthetics going forward

Prairie Restoration projects on a couple Burms and a small Field, bordering several 'Park' holes, adds to the Pretty out there

Drainage of this Irish Lowland property has Greatly Improved since the Pay2Play Redesign, and continues improving

Creek isn't too much of a Hazard, and the DGCourse doesn't cause much Riparian erosion.
There's only a couple hundred feet on each 6 12 15 where DGers interact with Creek, and Water Levels are generally Shallow with plenty of Rocks to step on (avoid Creek during Spring Thaw however)

Tons of Woodchips added to Fairways in the Woods each year

There's a Color Coded Washer on each Teesign Post showing the Current Basket Position

Designers Maximize use of the Properties Space, also Move Baskets in a way that allows Healing and Minimizes Erosion

Baskets get Moved in Unfixed patterns, so there's a Plethora of different Layouts throughout each year
UPDATE 22: Mach7s added to most holes, so there's 2 Basket options now too

Red & Blue Tees on Half the Holes
2 4 6 8 11 13 15 17 18

Red Blue & Golds on the other Half
1 3 5 7 9 10 12 14 16

Red Blue Basket Positions
2 4 6 8 11 13 18

Red Blue Gold Basket Positions
1 3 5 7 9 10 12 14 15 16 17

Blue Tees often force a Flex Throw within 100 Feet of the Pad, which is something I Like about the Design

Four Gold Tees in the Woods also force Flex Lines, and then there's a Landing Zone surrounded by Woods, often turning Upshots into a Gong Show... which I also enjoy

Gold Tees in the 'Park' allow for Throwing Bomb Drives, or choosing your Landing Zone that gives a confident Upshot

Plenty of Benches

O'hauser isn't Flat, but it also isn't Hilly... so the DG is 2 Dimensional

There's really only one major Drainage issue left
Woods water wuns down between holes 3 n 13, but it doesn't drain out to the Creek, creating a Squito Swamp situation that could be Muddy if you land Off of the Woodchiped Fairways

Hole 4 has the biggest Safety Issue on the Course, as Drives from 12 frequently go into/thru the Green, and someones eventually gonna catch Cranial Damage

TeeSigns not updated along with the Upgrades/Modifications over the past handful of years, could confuse Visitors on 5 12 14 15 17

TeePads have 'Foul Lines' but the Locals ignore it, even during Leagues

There's Warehousing and Mega Office Lots across the Tracks, and it drains into the Creek by 14, then goes thru holes 13 12 6

O'hauser has the Best Discgolf around the Fox Valley

Besides Zobel and Wilderness,
O'hauser is the Best Dgc around the Entire Upper and Lower Fox (Portage up North thru Green Bay)

I've played numerous Excellent "Flat" Discgolf Courses~
Big Eau Pleine, Blue Ribbon Pines, Vicksburg Rec, Bijou, Pessimist DiscGolfPark, Suicide Flats, Peter Pan Optimist, Blackhawk, Scrapyard
~Can't say any have Better Discgolf than O'hauser

A well groomed clean course that's in fantastic condition with a fun challenging design, with multiple tees and pins to switch it up every time. The beauty of this course isn't just the tee shots it's also the greens, some baskets tucked in or guarded by groups of trees or some sit on a dirt/rock mound which adds depth to the challenge of putting and upshots. Has all the course essentials. A lot of the cons in older reviews from many years ago have been addressed. This place is being constantly updated, dead tree removal, adding more permanent baskets so some holes have 2 in place. Improving fairways (especially hole 17, which is now an awesome par 4 to the long basket.) Most spray n pray situations have been a little thinned out, while still keeping it challenging. The brush clearing in spots is a pro, what has been cleared out is rough brush that was within the tree areas, the trees are still there as an obstacle but your not cursing the course if you hit the trees cuz your not stuck crawling through junk afterward if you fly into it.

Mostly wooded but actually has a decent amount of openness in which you can still rip a bomb on holes 5 blue/gold,7 all tees, 9 gold, 10 gold, 11 is a tight out but you have to rip it if you wanna chance at the blue pin location, 12 blue/gold tees, 15 to long basket (ok so 15 isn't open open but it's bigger older trees with little bit wider gaps than previous holes and has a line that if you rip a drive with perfect S-shot over the bridge it can be parked.

I love it when the train howls by when I'm close and it's my shot, I don't consider it a distraction, I consider it lucky, the sound clears all the chatter in my brain helping me just do the shot second nature without overthinking.

Also, pay-to-play is a pro people!!! Get over it! I don't get why so many think it's a con. it's one of the reasons this course is great. I have to pay $6 at wacdonalds to get a crappy burger, that's two days worth of discing here.

The elevation, it pretty much mostly flat, but it doesn't mean it's a bad course by any means, it's just flat which reduces the amount of variety one can have on a course when comparing it to the top tier courses. A couple of the gold tees are awkward. A few holes holes get muddy and little flooded in early spring when ground still has yet to thaw but it doesn't keep me from playing the course.

While it's not a top tier omg destination it's probably one of the best courses in the Fond du Lac/Oshkosh/Appleton/Green Bay stretch that is within 20 mins of Hwy 41. Each hole has it's own personality. A lot of love put in by the local disc golf club and parks dept. Yes it is tight and challenging in spots but that's what's fun, and I feel with the right amount of fairness. Some holes are easy birdies, some are difficult but not impossible. It has mosquitoes, but it's Wisconsin and it's nature and it don't bother me a bit! If you think this place is too buggy then you ain't ever been up north.

The use of moderate to describe the vegetation is somewhat off base. While the very few open holes are more sparsely lined with mature trees, the wooded holes are incredibly densely populated, leaving very tight and difficult lines to hit (the open holes also tend to be longer, so that is the trade off).

The tees and baskets are in excellent shape, and I've never seen more accurate and detailed tee signs (even offering the distances in meters for our European friends).

The only con to this course is that it lacks any sort of elevation, but the technical difficulty of the shot making required more than makes up for it. That, and the sheer length of the course, each are what drops my review a half point.

There are many great courses in this area and this is definitely near the top of the list.

- Very well maintained
- Tee pads with a foul line, something I haven't seen before, but like!
- Multiple tee pads and possible pin locations, love that!
- Multiple holes with narrow routes through trees make for an intense challenge for anyone used to open courses
- Not busy at all on a Sunday morning (only one other person on the course when we were out there!)
- $: P2P. Usually the P2P courses are nicer and more well kept than free courses. This one does not disappoint! And $3 is nothing compared to playing a round of ball golf

- $: P2P. Some people don't like it, for them it would be a con. For me not so much!
- Trains could get annoying for sure. I love train watching, but probably not so much while I am disc golfing.

Lack of elevation doesn't bother me. I play in Grand Forks, ND where there is probably less elevation change, so I am used to it. Was in town for brother's wedding, and based on reviews I knew I had to play this course before heading back home. Absolutely was not disappointed. This is a great course, and if I am ever back in eastern WI, I will be looking to play it again!

Wonderful course set in an out of the way park in Neenah.

Really nice concrete tee pads, that each have a foul line and run over area, which is a great feature that more courses should incorporate. This makes winter discing here much more pleasant, as well. 2 tee pads (blue/red) on each hole, with a Gold option on many, as well. These extra tees aren't just extra distance...nearly every one adds an extra wrinkle or completely different line to the hole.

Solid DGA baskets, in good repair. Did notice a little wobble on a couple cages, but nothing that will change the performance. 2 or 3 pin positions for every hole.

Nice molded plastic tee signs on every hole, at each tee pad. They're simple, but informative. The only thing that would help is a marker for which pin position is current.

A good variance in shots here. You'll get some straight, some left to right, and some right to left...even some OH's are forced in certain places. Shot shaping is required in some places to score well.

Upkeep is second to none. The open areas are extremely well groomed, fairways are well defined, and intended lines are well planned. The wooded fairways are extremely fair...not too open, but plenty of room for the Rec or Int player to have a chance to score well from hole to hole, yet still be rewarding enough for the better player, especially from the longer tees.

The rough here is made mostly of trees and bushes, but not dense overgrowth...so you almost have to try to lose a disc. This is a huge plus in my book. You're punished by bad shots, but not by losing plastic.

It's P2P ($3/day), which is pretty paltry for such a nice course. Some people just don't like P2P, though, so I always include it. If you don't pay, parks department personnel WILL come through and ask. The fine is $87.50, so pay your $3.

No real open bomber holes here...so if that's your favorite, you'll be disappointed. No real water in play, either...just a creek alongside a couple holes, that really shouldn't come into play.

While the park is wooded and should feel more secluded, the constantly running freight trains next to half the course is somewhat unnerving, especially if you happen to be mid swing during a train horn 50' away from you.

No elevation in play here, although to be honest, I barely notice it while playing.

While I'd like to give O'Hauser a 4.25, I'll bump it up knowing that it's just going to keep getting better. Every time I come here, I leave wanting to come back.

To me, this is the best course in the FDL-Appleton corridor. You'll need to be accurate (and in some cases long) to score well. Some holes look harder than they are, while some holes play tougher than they look. It will challenge you, without absolutely beating you down.

The park has baseball diamonds, tennis courts, walking trails, playgrounds...all the makings of a great family day. Restrooms by tee 1 (as well as the pay station), along with a porta potty in the middle of the course.

If you're in the area, you're doing yourself a disservice not playing here.

UPDATE: I'm close to downgrading this to a 4.0, as the parks crew keeps clearing out obstacles. Holes 7/8 are nearly wide open now, and several other holes have had some clearing. Stop it!

Update 2: More clearing, and it has brought my score on the course down. It's still a very fun place to play, though.

The course was redone recently, to make it more of a tournament type course. The majority of the holes, have 3 different pad's, depending on your expertise. Most holes also have alternate pin locations, depending on the time of the year. Its one of those courses that you have to try multiple times just to get the hang of it. It is open year around, so you can go whenever you want.

BRING BUG SPRAY!!! It is terrible to play when you are constantly swatting at mosquitos and gnats. I don't know what the deal is, but every hole has loads of bugs on it, and makes it a struggle to throw and concentrate. A couple holes have poor throwing lanes, and makes it frustrating to throw through. You have to pay a $3 fee for each game you play, or you can pick up a yearly pass for $25 for single player.

If it wasn't for the bugs, I'd be there almost every weekend. The course is a great challenge, and its neat that the pins can change at any time. Not to fond of the fee to play, but if it means the course gets constant maintenance, I guess its worth it. Right now it seems like they are doing more visual renovations than making the course better.

WOW! What a fun course. 3 sets of tees offer a great variety to all players. 2 positions for baskets. Very clean and well managed. This is a city course so they have the funds to do the right things to keep it in great shape and making changes to keep it a great course. There is a good mix of open and wooded holes. Some of the wooded holes are some of the hardest I have ever played, but great. Has a cool little closed near first tee where they sell discs and other gear.

Some holes are just to hard to play. There is a hole that has about a 1000 trees between the tee and the basket. This is a little bit much. I like flat courses sometimes, but there really isn't any change in elevation here. That's not much of a con for me but some people like hilly courses. Only change baskets 2 times a year. Winter and summer, that's it. As a city course it should be free. I have no problem paying for disc golf, but to pay at a city course is a bit ridiculous. I don't have to pay to play baseball with my friends on there field and that costs a ton more to maintain. Hours of pro shop are posted but not followed. Don't post them if you can't keep them. League players are a-holes and very rude to paying players. Just because we don't carry 30 discs in our bag doesn't make us less of a discer than you. I know many players that play with 2 discs and would stomp those guys into the ground.

Great place for the more advanced player and a tough challenge for the better players. Not as crowded as other courses due to the $3 fee. When leagues are going on some of the players are snobby and make comments about non league players getting in their way. Those people allow you to play a nice course when they pay $3 is what to told one guy and I can't post what his response was. Have fun and enjoy a great course. One of my top 10 in WI.

This course is a few minutes off Hwy 10 or Hwy 41 in Menasha. It's $3 a day per person and there are annual single and two person passes available as well. You can see where the money to play goes to on this course. I was very impressed with this place. There are 3 sets of tee pads on half the holes with the other half having 2 sets. The reds are the shorts, blues are longs and the golds are advanced/Tournament tees. These are set up very nicely, making shots from each different tee seem very different from one another. There is definitely a drastic difference from the reds to golds. The tee pads themselves were all in awesome shape. they are large, level and grip very well. They also have a painted foul line on the front of each tee which I don't recall ever seeing before anywhere else. The tee signs are on 4"x4" posts by each tee. The signs have all the info you need. They have a basic hole layout with all the tee and pin locations shown, hole #, distances for each in feet and meters and par. The baskets are Mach 3's with number plates on top that are in great shape and catch superbly. There are wood chips throughout the course on fairways and walking paths between holes. There are multiple benches and garbages throughout the course and restrooms at the proshop and even a port o potty near the middle. There is a small creek that comes into play on a couple holes as well. The flow of the course is easy to follow and they provide very nice maps at the pay box with a scorecard on the back also. There's good variety here from tightly wooded to more open holes with none being just wide open. There is also a pro shop there too. I'm not sure what their hours are though. The course is open year round which is always a plus.

The course is mostly flat. Some elevation would really add more challenge but with the land available they did an outstanding job. I can imagine the bugs could be an issue in the summer but that goes without saying in Wisconsin. Other than that I can't come up with anything else.

This was the best out of the 8 courses I played near Appleton. I would highly recommend playing a few rounds at O'Hauser if you're anywhere nearby. This is a great, great tournament level course that will not disappoint serious disc golfers. The best nearby besides Rollin Ridge.

I really like what they have done with the new lay-out. There are alot of difficult shots but also shorter holes mixed in too. Now that it is pay to play its nice not having the trash all over and maintained very well. Its nice having 3 tee pads at every hole. Definitely worth stopping to play.

Not alot of benches and alot of the ones that are there are placed in really weird positions and some even RIGHT next to the tee pad

The redesign of O'hauser will excite some and upset others. Some excellent, challenging holes have been added: 3 Blue Tee, 5 Gold Tee, 7 Gold, 9 Blue/Gold, 12 Gold, 15 Gold. Multiple pin placements is a plus. Legitimate par 4's and 5 depending on the pin positions. Update 8/26: New green on hole nine creates a great, straight drive to the pin from the blue and gold. New fairway on hole 16 gives a good risk/reward from the gold and blue tees. Update 11/4/15: New green on #15 Gold is a great and challenging par 4.

Lots of righting anyhyzers off of the tee.(1, 3gold, 6Blue, 7, 9, 10Gold, 11Blue, 14, 15, 16, 18) Doesn't make them bad, but I throw the same disc on many of these drives. Some Gold tees very hard.(1, 3, 10, 14, 16) Missing long, tight driving hole that doesn't require some type of turn or slide. Seems like most tee shot needs to angle off the tee or late during the drive to find the landing spot. Blind holes due to desire to make the shots harder. (1, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18)

Course has had a significant amount of buckthorn removed making it much more forgiving off of the fairway. Recovery shots are needed to get to the pin, but "pitchouts" have been significantly reduced.

1) Gigantic tee pads, you will not be accidentally running off of these.
2) Concrete pads, nice and grippy.
3) Tee pads are color coded; red pads are colored red, blue pads are silver (color didn't take well i guess) and gold pads are gold, along with an Appleton Area Disc Golf Club (AADGC) stamp in the front of them.
3) Multiple pin placements and tees.
4) Tons of variety, hole shapes and distances. There's some big bombers (5, 7, and 12 from blues or golds), there's some short ace runs (most holes from the reds and 2 and 4 from the blues). From the reds 3 holes play LHBH, 10 play straight, 4 play RHBH, and hole 11 plays as an S shape. From the blues 6 play LHBH, 5 play straight, 4 play RHBH, and holes 6, 11, and 18 play as an S shape. And out of the 9 gold tees 5 play LHBH, 2 play straight and 2 play RHBH. You will need every shot in your bag, except maybe a roller, to shoot well here.
5) Most of the fairways in the woods are covered with wood chips; the course should never be muddy in these areas due to this.
6) A few elevated baskets with some really nice looking rock walls and 'greens'.
7) Course is nice and clean, and will hopefully stay this way as time passes

1) Benches are few and far in between, but there are quite a few places to sit (on big rocks and such) on most holes without benches.
2) Same thing with trash cans as there is with the benches, but it's not that hard to carry your own trash. Shouldn't have a problem with liter bugs anyway since the course is pay to play.

This is one amazing course. Thanks to Rich Martin for designing this awesome course, and to the AADGC for putting all of their time and effort into making this the premiere course in the Fox Cities. This course is filled with great holes, and hard holes at that. Hole 11 definitely makes a run for first place as the hardest hole in the Fox Valley. This is a very tough course, but, for the most part, fair. Some holes are a bit ridiculous from the blues/golds. If you're playing from the blues or golds and can score par go ahead and pat yourself on the back, you have done well for this course. If you are anywhere near this course you need to stop by and play it, like I said before, it is an amazing course and must be played if you are in the area.
