Other Thoughts:

Well, I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I got to this course. You start off with the first 2 holes being both under 150ft with hole 1 being a par 2 and hole 2 literally throwing down an old bridge. (seriously, see pictures)

Then you get to hole 3 that is a long wide open shot with the last of the hole throwing over a quarry of some sort with the basket at the top of the hill.

Now it's time for the fun, the next couple of holes are VERY tight where you can't throw hard unless you know where the basket is and go over everything. Hole 4 is a crazy S shaped hole with the fairway going to a 90 degree right turn and then the basket is on the left of the clearing. On top of that, the tee area is uphill.

Hole 5 is not quite as crazy, it is a 90 degree turn left, but a much better defined fairway.

Hole 6 is almost as crazy as hole 4, Very tight shot though some woods to a small creek, then 90 degrees to the left down a narrow path with the pond on the left side of the fairway.

hole 7 shows the throw is suppose to be down the path of the dam, however I took the big anhyzer route over the pond.

Then you get back into what you would expect from a disc golf course.

I think the signature hole for this course would be hole 10. You are throwing across a field with the last 3rd of the hold being though a grove of trees with a creek crossing. While only just over 300ft, the first drive is key to getting your 3.

Then the course opens back up and is mostly longer bomber shots till you get to hole 17. I have no idea what you are suppose to do here. I could not see any sort of a fairway. I threw as far as I could down the walking path then tried to pound my disc thought he trees to the basket. My 2nd shot was on the creeks edge and I was able to lay up for a 4. But even standing next to the basket, I could not see a "fairway" to the basket.

Then you finish with a nice little 180ft shot back across the creek to finish your round.

Would I play here again? Nope, this course is a mess. It has some decent holes, but it also has some CRAZY holes I don't want to ever see again. This is the type of course you play once and never play again. I can't say don't ever play it, but i would not want this to be my home course.
