Other Thoughts:
Is this course suppose to be for school students or the community of disc golfers. That is the biggest question in my mind as I played this course.
Good thing this course is not playable when school is in session, because it would be best to play this course when no one is around the school. Hole 1 and 5 actually use parking spaces as tee's. I parked on tee pad one and moved when I realized it. I got lucky that the person parking on tee 5 left as I was playing.
The first 4 holes are on the north side of the school, there is a nice grove of trees that are used for holes 2 and 3 and sort of hole 4.
Hole 5 is a bad hole, not only are you teeing off from a parking spot, but you are throwing across the front yard of the school over the entrance. Turn over your shot and you are in the road or risk hitting the school. it's also the longest hole on the course.
Hole 6 is a fun little island hole with the road in front of the basket and a sidewalk behind the basket. it's a shorter hole, but a very small landing zone.
Holes 7, 8 and 9 follow the fence line on the south side of the property. Hole 8 has a giant hyzer shot, or an up the middle shot with some rough on the right side of the fairway. Actually a decent little hole. Hole 9 is a decent risk reward kind of shot with some thick brush behind the basket. There is a tempting big hyzer shot, but the tree's will probably block you.
Then you get into the interesting area with some holes carved out of junk tree's. Hole 10 is a little low turnover shot.
11 is an "S" shot around a couple of cedars into the open.
12 is a big hyzer from the top of a hill into the rough, it's a blind shot with a creek behind the basket (very small creek but did have some water in it)
13 is sort of similar to 12 but not as much of a hyzer. It's still blind and has a lot of this underbrush if you hyzer too much.
14 is a decent hole down a natural fairway, however a big hyzer shot would wind up in the main road.
Holes 15 and 16 throw back and forth though the cedar tree's. Nice fairways cleared out on these holes.
Same with 17 but the last approach to the basket is out in the open with a hill behind the basket if you overthrow.
Then you have hole 18. This is the craziest, most dangerous hole on the course. You are teeing off and can't see if there are cars or people on the road. Your shot is about 300ft over a small hill, across the parking/road and the green is between the road and the school on a hill. It's a fun shot if no one is around. Scarry if anyone is.
In general, play this course when no one is around and you might have fun. BUT this is a school, is the course not for kids? I do not feel like this course is kid friendly. But it is also not really challenging or interesting enough for any seasoned player.
Would I play here again? No, most of the course is boring and not worth it. The area has too many good courses to mess with this one. So don't worry if you don't play it, you didn't miss anything.
