Pros: Great course with fantastic mix of technical wooded holes and fun open holes. There are holes here for everybody. Whether your favorite shot is a roller, forehand, backhand, or overhand there are holes at J-Park for you.
Updated Pros: The new 27 hole option raises this course to new stratosphere. In the summer of 2009 Discap learned that they would be loosing holes 14-18 due to environmental concerns. Course founder Kevin Rounds was able to take this news and convert if from (Jora)lemons to (Jora)lemonade by petitioning the town to fund relocation and expansion into the eastern half of the park. The Discap crew has done yeomens work forging the new holes have been rewarded with one of the best courses in the region.

Cons: Only cons are gravel tee-pads, DB-5 baskets, and port-a-jons. None of which detracts from my enjoyment of this course at all. In fact the gravel pads are better then some rubber ones I've played and the DB-5s are in very good shape. When these 3 things are upgraded I will give this course a 5.
Updated Cons: DB-5 baskets have been improved with new inner chains since I my original review. The Frankenstein DB-5 with DGA # plates and added chains are still not ideal but they are a great economical option. The gravel tees on the new holes are still a work in progress. During wet months bugs will be an issue in the new areas, bring some heavy duty spray. With the loss of the old holes flow is not as good as it once was. The course could benefit from the holes being renumbered but this would mean changes to holes 1 and 27 which are great the way they are. It would be great if the town would allow the re-establishment of the old hole 18 as this would be a perfect transition between current holes 1 and 27.

Other Thoughts: This course could not have been done any better with the resources that were available. Its a ton of fun and every time I play it I feel like I have improved my game. I love that bad throws here can really punish your score without causing you to spend a ton of time searching for plastic (or on-line buying new plastic).
My favorite hole is 4. A 460 foot dog leg left with the pin tucked into the woods atop a large rock formation.
Updated favorite hole is 11. The hole plays slightly left to right 350'+ with a algae carpeted swamp to the right. The green is framed beautifully requiring you to throw between or around two massive, compact car sized boulders.

My Home Course
Pros: The course is challenging in the right ways! It doesn't take a super strong arm to perform well here. Although, there are holes where a long drive can be very rewarding. Well placed shots are invaluable at Joralemon.
Cons: Because the course is located at a public park, it can't be groomed like some players (myself mostly) would like it to be. There seems to be a number of low hanging branches that could further open up the fairways and allow for even more spectacular shots.
Other Thoughts: Overall, the course is maticulously maintained. It is protected by the shade of the woods. Each hole has a look and character to it that make it unique.

Pros: Just the right length for me. Lots of 250-310 foot holes. Great use of the rocks. Many holes have alternate paths and tricky decisions. Good mix of open and wooded. Signs are excellent.
Cons: Last four holes are too similar. Hole 13 seems unfair with no clear path to basket. Tee boxes not finished, could use more benches, etc.
**** The final holes that I was complaining about have been removed, and the course is now 27 holes. Can't wait to play it again soon!!! ****

Other Thoughts: I can't wait to come back in the spring. The final holes might be tougher with more foliage.

Nice beautiful course
Pros: Great layout, the open fairways have several routes to choose, the woods holes are well thought out. Rocks and small elevations come into play. The park is absolutely gorgeous.
Cons: Some of the woods holes are too tight and narrow, but that's only on a couple of them. DB5's are OK not fantastic.
Other Thoughts: Great group of disc golfers who throw nice tournaments. Disc golf is new around there but growing fast thanks to the dedicated crew.

Low Cieling
Pros: Great design, I think mother nature wanted a disc golf course here. The rock outcroppings play very nicley into the course. Great mix of holes, with at least 2 true par 4's.
Cons: DB-5 baskets spit just a little more than mach 5 or discatchers.
Other Thoughts: Go play it!

Pros: Wonderful layout. IMO perfect mix of open and wooded. #1 is a great roller hole. I wish we had more of them in the NE. Amazing how easily the course was fitted into the park. Kevin Rounds did a great job with this one.
Cons: Hmm...I suppose bigger elevation changes, more concrete tee pads, and more signage could help but I know those are all in progress. (I'd also need a pond throw in there to give any course a 5.)
Other Thoughts: First time playing on these baskets. They are amazingly good considering the cost. I swear these DB-5's have the most satisfying "ching" you've ever heard.
