Pros:
-Very good mix of shots needed to score well, backhand, flicks, tomahawks are all called for on certain holes if you're going to deuce
-There are a solid mix of lengths as well, some holes are smack in front of you with no obstacles while others are 500ft away with woods lining one side of the hole
-Great deuce opportunities, especially on the front 9, mixed with some holes on the back 9 where you're happy to have scored a 3
-Scenic park, nice pond, pavilion, gazebos, walking paths
-There are walkers, but typically not overcrowded or leaving disc players waiting to shoot for the pedestrians to get out of the way
-Nice teepads, all cement, fairly sized so no issues with length or width when driving
-I'd say two really feasible ace opportunities (Holes 4, 7). Holes 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 17, 18 are all ace-runs without needing an insanely good shot.
-Challenging elevation changes on some holes make for unique shots. A few times you're shooting downhill (holes 4, 11, 13, 17) and a few of times you're shooting uphill (holes 1, 6, 8, 14). Makes for some interesting elevation putts as well
-Good sign out front of hole 1 for visitors to take a picture of before they play so they don't get too lost
-course holds up fairly well to bad weather. You'll only have problems traveling on holes 3, 4, and 5 after significant precipitation
Cons:
-This is not a beginner friendly course. It's not insanely hard but there are too many hills / valleys / trees for a new player to not hold up the group while playing. If you bring a beginner, only play holes 1-13
-Can be congested with a lot of groups playing at peak times, it's a popular course and area
-Holes 9 through 13 have some overlap on them, sharing some hill and trees, just be careful of the groups around you during this portion of the course
-There are a few danger spots to lose your disc (even when you had a good/decent shot), these are specifically at:
Hole 6 in the woods - it will roll down the hill into the creek
Hole 8 - the blind shot over the hill can roll all the way down to the parking lot, or get lost in the woods to the left
Hole15 - you're throwing parallel to the building, most common shot is a forehand flick, if it hits the hill short and hard it will fly straight down the hill and into the pond
16 - dense growth before the hole, obvious when you see it
17 - same dense growth as hole 16, but you also have a forest to your left if you throw too much hyzer
Other Thoughts:
This is a great place to play at. Whether it be for a practice round or a full-blown tournament, Prospect won't let you down. Don't be entirely surprised when you lose a disc if you've never played here before. This course works well for a multiple course, multiple round disc day as well, as there are about 8 other disc golf courses within 30mins of Prospect. Camden I and Camden II are only about 10-15mins away from Prospect Park. Playing all three of these make for a great combination.
