Pretty short
Pros: - nice baskets
- the idea to include the mandos is a nice way to make it more challenging
- makes for a nice putter only, or mid only round
- good chance for an Ace here
- if you had a young child or someone with a lot less power, this would be a great place to take them
- easy to navigate

Cons: - short
- holes throw across each other and across or near spaces with other uses, this could be very dangerous for others
- not much of a challenge

Other Thoughts: We found the park to be the most fun when we played with just one disc. This took the disadvantages of length and turned them into a chance to really learn how to control one disc. If you really want to work on your putter play, this might be a good place as well.
Putters Delight
Pros: This course had very nice baskets, and the tee pads were in flat places in the grass so they were fine also. It only takes about 30 minutes to play with two players which would be nice for after work or school if you are in the area.
Cons: All the holes are very very short. The park does not have much land so can not extend the holes at all. If there were other people at the park you would have to wait or warn them you are throwing because of how the course interweaves the small park.
Other Thoughts: This course is for someone to work on their putting and their midrange shots. There is only really one hole where you need to let it rip to get to the hole.
Quick Course
Pros: Nice baskets. This course is great for someone who wants to work on short game and putting. It's also a course that would be really easy to stop and play a quick round. The signs are pretty good here too.
Cons: The park is very small and the holes go back and forth across an are where people could easily get in the way if they are using the park.
Other Thoughts: It probably isn't worth a special trip to this course, but if you are in the area it is definitely worth checking out.

Pros: The course is very small, you could play it in less than half an hour. It's close to Mountaineer Casino and Thompson Run Park, so if you're already at either of those places you could easily play this course. Short holes make for birdie and ace chances galore.
Cons: It's almost not worth the time it takes to play it. There are only two unique holes and one is unique because you have to throw across a basketball court. If there are other people utilizing the park, you won't be able to play a few of the holes. If the pavilion was being used I would have potentially hit someone on two straight throws, and I had to wait for the basketball players to be out of the way to make my throw on hole 5. The basket for hole 6 is half way torn out of the ground and leaning at a 45 degree angle.
Other Thoughts: It's only worth playing if you're already there or close by.

Pros: This is actually a pretty cool course. It is not a course you would want to make a special trip to play, like I did so many years ago. It's 9 holes of pure fun. Takes about 30 minutes to play. You will get 7 good ace run chances. The holes all have mandos marked on the tees if you want to add some challenge to the course.
Nice baskets. This is a great course to practice your upshots on. And I have never seen anyone else playing here so you can make up holes if you wish.

Cons: Tees/baskets are too close together on some holes, but not really a problem because no one is ever there.
Other Thoughts: If you are in the area it is worth the 30 minutes it will take to play the course. The park is really kinda cool and it is such a strange place for a disc golf course. But it all works and it is a quick fun round.

Pros: Mostly a course made to test your short and technical game. Most holes are short and have mandatory routes that you must take. If you don't take the mandatory route i imagine its a penalty. Signage is layed out very nicely
Cons: Not the big grip and rip style course most well be use to. Hole 5 crosses a B-ball court.
Other Thoughts: I thought was unique from typical boring layout of most 9 hole so i gave it 3. Simply becuase someone ,somehow figured out how to cram 9 holes in this small little park. Its very nice park with some old school playground equipment. If your playing thompson you should definitely stop by and give it whirl. Just about everything as far as amenities are concerned. You can even go swim in the Ohio River if you want.

Pros: Good for first time players. Park atmosphere can be a relaxing and/or stress free game of disc golf. .
Cons: Very short holes, with 1 under 100ft. Lots of people throughout the course. Holes play along side the skatepark, basketball course and pavilion.
Other Thoughts: Thompson Park is right across the river, less than 10min away.
