More technical course for placement shots. Good tee pads. A course for your midrange discs and putters. A constant upgrading and trying for improvement from volunteers (YEAH volunteers).

Open/widen this 18 holes up a bit so a person can actually watch what the disc is doing. The first time I played this course..I was lost to where to go next (more directional signs...arrows, like fluorescent pink). If I could, I would grab a chainsaw and sheers and open this place up so that it is a lot more fun instead of waiting to see if I lose another disc. Wet conditions REALLY are not a good time and makes you want to leave. Bring your tick repellent!!!!

I have given up to really tight courses like this one where you hear everyday that someone lost a disc ALL the time (that should be a hint). The effort is there...just needs some outside eyes to show what should be done course design wise so that MORE people will enjoy this course....instead of being frustrated.

• Lots of long open holes that still require accuracy
• Concrete tees for both shorts and longs
• Signage for next basket

• Multiple pin positions that are drastically different are not marked, so you need to walk way up to see where the basket is so you don't throw a hyzer when you should have thrown a big anhyzer
• Just like Tower Ridge I all the fairways are XC ski paths, so you have to get your throws to land on the 20-30' wide fairway otherwise you are in the rough which is majority thorn patches
• Unless you have 350-400' of distance almost all the tee shots are throw as far and straight as you can then make your upshot to the basket and putt for par.
• No elevation compared to Tower Ridge I

This course has a similar feel to Tower Ridge I since they both play along XC paths, only this course is considerably longer and flatter. The distances listed here are not accurate most holes are over 350'.

Because of the length and the narrow fairways if you can't reach the basket all of your tee shots consist of throwing as straight and as far as you can. and if you don't land on the fairway the rough is full of thorns.

Course with many curves cut through snowshoe trails. Concrete tees on almost every hole, with serviceable if basic tees signs with distance and map. Unmarked (on sign) short tees? are white carpet chunks off to the side of most fairways. (wouldnt recommend playing from them) Discatchers have the hated rejection bar, but because of all the blind tunnel shots on this course, yellow band makes them mercifully easier to spot without walking the hole.

Dual pins on almost all holes, unused sleeve spray painted red for reference. All distances and hole maps correspond to the short pins. I played them in all long pins. Trick to finding the long pins: most holes here follow the curves of the preexisting snowshoe trails for most of the fairways, then curve into the woods on one side or another of the trail to the tunnel-protected basket. The long pins typically amplify and extend the tunnels into the woods, so however the map shows the hole dogleg'ing at hte end, continue further past the dogleg than it shows and you're at the longs.

The trails this course plays on are mostly flat with some rolling terrain, but what it lacks in elevation it makes up for with extreme curves.

This course forces a series of sharp curves, both left and right, almost to the point of candy-cane shapes sometimes. However, the woods are thick and tall enough to keep players honest, and force them to play the curve, rather than needing mandos. That, combined with the tall tree stumps on the fairway, forces players to pull out some hard curves, both directions, and adds height to the holes that would otherwise be flat and more forgiving.

In the short pins, this course has many deuce opportunities, but forces controlled distance, and modest shot shaping to achieve these results. This course throws a lot of late trouble at you once you veer off the open trails. The first part of the fairway is open, but the basket is protected, sometimes quite tightly, once you veer into the carved tunnels.

The long pins on this course are tough, make no mistake, especially because its all par 3. Most longs force an accurate distance drive and a solid second drive or upshot just to get a decent putt.

Forces you to shoot through some clever gaps at the end to get to the basket, which is this course's signature and one it uses with variety to keep things fresh and add intrigue.

Forces more shot shaping for long approaches and second drives than it does off the tee, this course has only modest risk reward because of the lack of rollaway hillsides or water, but it makes the best of the location by guarding the basket well.

Beneath each basket, there is a small concrete block sunk into the ground with a NEXT TEE --> spray painted stencil in red. Very helpful, especially since there doesn't seem to be maps available for this course.

Despite lack of elevation or water, this course (like UW parkside) uses thick wisconsin forest to create an interesting array of challenges and lines. A solid course that I enjoyed and will play again, but still flat, and not as memorable as the really good ones, like its older brother next door.

The edges of the trails have been carefully logged, in part for the golf course fairways it would seem. However, there are still the stumps of those trees 3-5 ft above the ground, so not quite clear. This tree trimming widens the fairways beyond the trails and shapes them for the holes. If and when they finish this project next year, this

The longs, while very challenging, sometimes approach boring holes, scoringwise, for this reason. Because of the kinks in the fairway combined with distance, even if u chuck 300ft with a nice hyzer at the end, you still have to drive again and get a curve to get a putt on the basket. Some of the holes should argueably be fours from the short pin placement, such as 420ft #5 or the 435 #10. Many holes are already in the mid-300s, playing all long pins adds between 40 and 60 ft to the posted distances on almost every hole, and usually adds another kink to the fairway. Seems like a few par 4s (on either course) would be justified, and make par achievable from long or short pins. One or two wide open 500ft holes on a par54 city course like Brown Deer is one thing, but a pay to play course with 3-8 wooded holes of 400 or more (dep on short/long pins) seems like it should just post a few par 4s. Not knowing the distance or location of the long pins was frustrating, and definitely cost me time in scouting holes.

Also, the logging that has gone on recently has opened up the fairways remarkably, but its also left a mess with tractor tread marks and trambled brush strewn about. Ground can eat a disc here, and eliminates ground skip distance after impact.

The flow of this course is mostly ok, but hole one is very hard to find. (See below)

THe best wayto play these two courses IMO is to park in the lot marked for the DG course, and start on hole 1 of TR1, then cross over to after hole 7 to TR2 (hole 9).

BONUS HOLE: After hole 18, walk to the signpost in front of you. Looking past the abandoned cabin on the left, play to the practice basket, which is down the tunnel towards picnic table/fire ring area (short of the power pole, but tucked into right side)

Once you play the bonus hole, Teepad for Hole #1 will be to your left. From that main lodge, tee #1 is left.

You are out in nature, and its a long walk to play both courses, so bring water, food and bug spray if you are going to play the whole 36.

The course plays in a flat area of a large cross country ski area, and doesn't appear to get too much non-disc golf use. It is a very pretty wooded area, and has a nice secluded feel. Nearly all holes use the ski trails as fairways, so they are well-defined with thick trees and brush if you miss the fairway. There is some variety in hole length, with some shorter holes and some holes where you can throw a drive if you are willing to risk the rough. The course is pretty balanced for left and right handed players with a good mix of left and right turning holes.

There are much better baskets on this course than the original course, that are newer and catch well. The tees are decent cement pads with plenty of space and some texture. There are basic tee signs with hole distance and layout, and the navigation on this course is pretty easy.

Too many holes on this course fall into one of two categories. There are several sharp dog-legs that all feel pretty similar, and too many holes that are just basically straight ahead with the pin tucked slightly off to one side or the other. A little more variety in hole length and shape would go a long way, with no elevation and ski trail fairways, it's tough to keep the holes from running together here.

As others have said, the tee signs are a little odd in places, though they're entirely readable once you figure them out so not a huge deal. It appears that new pin positions have been added without a corresponding sign update, that makes for some extra walking to figure out where the holes are as many shots are blind.

This is a fun course, and with the original course here there are two good courses worth a stop if you're in the area. I preferred the original course over this one, but enjoyed both. Beginners will find the rough pretty unforgiving here, and many holes may be long for new players. More experienced throwers will find some challenges but not enough variety to really keep it interesting throughout.
