Dink, Dunk, Dodge 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 10, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

+ Nine baskets, with natural tees featuring good signage, in a loop around a pretty wooded park

+ There are a few good beginner holes here (#1, #3, #9 come to mind - they're in the 200' - 250' range, straight with rough or woods along one side, and they look like disc golf holes)

+ Hole #6 is a 117' par 2. It's nothing special (slightly right, slightly downhill, behind some bushes), but it's worth praising because someone accurately rated it a par 2


Cons:

- The rough has been allowed to grow wild. It completely obscures baskets on several holes, and makes the intended line on #2 impossible for anything but a towering 300' uphill spike hyzer. If you've got that shot, use it - otherwise you dink and dunk along a walking path. Get good at that - you'll have to do it on a few later holes too


Other Thoughts:

~ Small, busy park with walkers, picnickers to dodge. Most egregious is hole #8 with a blind throw up to a green bordering the main picnic/activity area


~ I found a fun challenge in "breaking down" poorly designed holes, dinking and dunking very short placement tee shots to give me a clear run for birdie or a drop-in par
