Is this a course, really?

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 1, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is located on a Junior High School right off of ID-39. This used to be an unlisted object course and you can still see the wooded posts from that time. Luckily the school district (I assume) purchased baskets VERY recently. It has one of those 'baskets in an open field' kind of vibes but does have some small to moderate elevation changes to somewhat make up for the lack of obstacles. There is a fence line between the school and the neighbor's property that I would assume be played as out of bounds and does come close to a few baskets so look out for that. There is potential for a fun practice course here I think.

Cons:

There are no tee pads and thus no navigation. Nothing to guide you to where the course starts and ends other than perhaps where the parking lot is? Without these things it's hardly a course. I just picked a basket and threw from there to one of the baskets I saw that looked fun and repeated this until I had played to all of the baskets. Not many obstacles makes for a pretty boring time. Some baskets are right next to the parking lot and depending on where you throw from look extremely dangerous.

Other Thoughts:

I'm not sure if this is actually a course or just some baskets for putting practice during P.E. time. When I was there cars were going in and out of the place at 5 in the afternoon, long after the school let out. I accosted err I asked someone in the parking lot about it and he said it's only playable after school hours and told me the baskets were new so not much info. Perhaps we can find some more info on this course and maybe add a course map or something but until then it shall remain a mystery.
