Pros:
The Pitney Disc Golf Course is on the grounds of the Oregon State Psychiatric Facility. They ask that you check in with security. The guys in security weren't very concerned and said go ahead and play. The course is out in the lawns beside the facility. There is a picnic type shelter with table and a bench. Also a mailbox with two kinds of course maps, a full-sized laminated page and also a small professional looking map like you would get at a golf course. Try to remember to return it when your round is over.
The tee pads are rubber floor mats. They're OK here but a couple already had grass growing up between them. There are no signs and the baskets are DGA models with a number on them.
The course is recreationally open. There are no obstacles, no hills, no trees, no buildings or even a playground to throw around. Each hole is a straight open shot. Actually, there is a gravel road next to # 8. It must be OB and therefore could be described as an obstacle.
Hole distances are:
1. 256'
2. 255.
3. 230'
4. 178'
5. 360'
6. 165'
7. 190'
8. 179'
9. 264'
Cons:
WIDE OPEN.
No obstacles.
Can be windy.
FLAT.
Rec distances.
A poor piece of property to put a course.
Other Thoughts:
Unless you work here, or are visiting someone, or are a patient yourself or are a serious course bagger, I can't imagine why anyone else would come here and play. Luckily for me, I only checked the box that said, "Course Bagger."
I hate to be too critical here because it looks as though they are really trying to be accommodating here but bottom line is, there really isn't much anyone could do here with flat piece of land with no trees, bushes or any other kinds of obstacles, man made or natural.
