LOTS OF FUN
Pros: This is the funnest course in the Daytona area IMO. There are plenty of birdie opportunities and some great ace opportunities. Despite being a short course, there are a variety of different challenges presented. The front 9 or so deal in a heavily wooded area that requires a multitude of technical shots... some of which you most likely have never seen. Most of the holes are <250', but the thick trees make for amazing risk/reward shots. This course is easy to score well on.
Cons: -Lots of kids playing in the park near a few holes.
-Possibly too short, only 2-3 holes that really stretch ya out. A couple holes are merely long putts from the teepad.
-Flat, no elevation change. No water.

Other Thoughts: Incredible use of a small space in Florida! Play this course and go home feeling good.

Pros: Great for the recreational player and beginning golfer. Also may challenge the regular player with some of the holes. Every hole is a potential birdy with virtually all an ace run
Cons: plays short for the everyday player, especially 3 of the last four holes
Other Thoughts: Lots of ace runs, assortment of hyzer and anhyzer shots, regular players should always be under par with the more skilled reaching double digits under. A fun little course and a great complement to the other local course.
The course has been recently renumbered with the original # 4 removed and a new hole 17 designed and in play.
1.Short, under two hundred ft. straight shot between a couple of trees gaurding the basket.
2. 300' open, basket tucked in behind a large tree to the left. easy birdy
3. anhyzer to relatively short pin, lots of trees to get in the way, tomahawk can be successful. great pin placement, add strokes if you go past out of the woods.
4. short and to the left, gaurded by trees, alot of righties prefer a flick
5. straight down a narrow opening with the basket a little to the left.
6. another shot straight down a narrow corridor, ace run if you hit your line.
7. short anhyzer, easy bird.
8. anhyzer or flick, get around the growth in the middle for a birdy.
9. nice hole, straight but early trouble with lots of trees to hit.
10. straight with a little fade through a hole or an anhyzer or flick will do the job here.
11. straight just short of 300' there is an ouside route with a disc that will come back.
12. straight at it with a little bit of arm. getting to the log or or around either side is desired
13.straight shot, also an outside route with a disc that will come back.
14. anhyzer with a fair amount of glide will get you parked.
15.run it!
16. run it again!
17. new addition, go straight at it with something that does not fade much and you've got a birdy!
18. short shot, basket gaurded by a couple of trees.

Reed Canal Park DGC 1 12/22/2010 12/27/2010
Review By: craigd

Pros: This is a very fun and at times technical course set in a small park. It's short, ringing in at only 3746 feet, but it still has a lot going for it. A quick round can be had if you are in a hurry. It's family friendly, great for new players, and is still enjoyable for an experienced player. It can have an enchanted forest feel during the times that you're surrounded by the many varieties of trees found on the course. A lot of Spanish moss hangs from the branches and lends itself to the overall atmosphere. Besides those few heavily wooded holes, it's a moderately wooded course with even some wide open holes at the end. And with the shortness, there are ample ace opportunities. The course has reasonably easy navigation. In fact the course is so compact that there is really never a long walk to the next tee.
As the course winds its way through the park, you'll notice a fair mixture of shot types. Both left and right turning are represented without being too partial to one or the other. A few holes offer more than one route to satisfy both orientations. Out of bounds walking paths that weave their way through the course add some challenge to this otherwise tame course too.
Concrete tees, great signs, and good baskets all are here too. The park has ample parking near the course and you'll also find clean bathrooms nearby.

Cons: The shortness is sure to get some complaints. After all, 13 of the 18 holes are less than 250 feet. To make matters worse, the last four holes, which do leave a lasting impression, are pretty much wide open and barely hit the 150 feet mark. The walking paths are nice but they do offer an opportunity to hit a pedestrian. I played on a weekday morning at a little after 7am and still had to wait a few times for passersby. Because the course is packed in pretty tightly, I would use extreme caution if there were other players on the course throwing anywhere near where I'm playing.
Other Thoughts: I'm torn between giving it a 2 or a 2 ½ disc rating. My gut says 2 but based on the fun factor, the expectations of a short course, and all of the amenities, I'll have to give it the extra half point. 2 ½ it is…
As others have stated, this not a championship caliber course. But the course is a nice compliment to the other course in town, Tuscawilla Park. I suggest using Reed Canal for a warm up and then head over to Tuscawilla for a longer, more challenging round. On the other hand if you just want to get away for a while, Reed Canal is perfect for a nice, relaxing, casual round. Either way, if you know what to expect going in, you should have a good time. Enjoy!

The only place I went under PAR
Pros: This is a what I call a good pitch and putt course. What I mean by that is this is not a good place for people with "GUNS". I found the course easy to read, signs clearly marked baskets and next tee off. The tees were cemented. It was in a park environment so it is good for families.
Cons: Too easy. This was the only place that I have played under PAR every time I played. Several of the baskets were so close that I used my putter off the tee to make it a little more challenging.
Other Thoughts: For being a short course, my family hated the trees. They kept getting "Tree Love" through most of the course. I would tell them that if they could control their throws and aim, it wouldn't be that much of a problem. I would bring my novice family to play again, and if I needed an ego boost, I would play as well.

Kind of a letdown, but not unplayable 
Pros: There are 8-9 interesting holes that require technical skill. Accuracy is required, and correct shots are rewarded with ace runs or birdies. The park is nicely landscaped, and the front nine are pretty solid, if not incredibly difficult. Each offers a challenge. The fountain and water behind hole 2 aren't in play, but they are pretty to look at. OB is employed on nearly every hole to add difficulty.
As others have mentioned, this is not a particularly long course. I don't think a course has to be long to be good, and about 8-10 of the holes here are interesting, have difficulty and variety. The palms will knock discs down. There are fairways (more lefty/forehand shots than righty backhand shots), and there's some risk/reward. The trees and OB will punish bad shots on the front nine in particular. And some of the deep rough/foliage is pretty nasty, so there's real risk involved. There are quite a few fun holes to be played.
Hole 2 is particularly picturesque, finishing against the backdrop of the fountain in the pond.
And Hole 12 is a biggish hole, 356' or so, dogleg right, with the basket very nicely positioned behind a big fallen log, which adds something to think about for your upshot.
The signage was good. New tee signs, very clear on where to go (mostly). Baskets modern and in great shape. Things seemed well groomed to me, especially for Florida.

Cons: However, the finish--especially the last four holes, which are among the worst holes I have ever played--is really awful. 15, 16, 17, and 18 are less than 150', straight ahead in the field, not an obstacle in sight. They have no difficulty, and no challenge for players. They are ace holes, but no one's going to be proud of those aces if they've been playing for longer than 6 weeks. This is particularly disappointing since the course was otherwise interestingly laid out, and relatively challenging. To my mind, the last few holes (particularly the last hole) are the most crucial part of a disc golf (or ball golf) course. You want major risk and reward on the last couple holes, some real difficulty, because then scores can change, and the outcome of the round, especially if you're playing against someone, remains in jeopardy until the end. You will remember this finish, and you won't remember it well. I would recommend just skipping 15 through 18 and playing another round.
Yes, the tee boxes need some work.
Yes, the pedestrians offer a little bit of a challenge. Let them walk by before you throw.

Other Thoughts: As someone mentioned it can be a little tricky to find a few of the tees after you finish out, but if you watch the tee signs, each of them lists which way the next tee is, so it's pretty straightforward if you're paying attention.
Big arm players won't love this course, but it does level the playing field for the rest of us, and we can all enjoy technical holes among the palms. Two of the holes are 300 feet or more, so you can get a little drive on for those. I don't know what the situation was with how much of the rest of the park the designers were able to use, but it's a real pity they didn't expand further into the other half of the park (and especially that they couldn't--or wouldn't, perhaps--use the water a little bit more). Even as a recreational course, I don't think this is a good 18 hole course. It is a decent 14 hole course, and you'd be smart to play it as such. I agree with the other commenter who suggested that this could be a quite good 9 hole course if they'd gone that way with it. But sometimes you're stuck with what you have to work with, and they did a good job with the first half.
If you come to play, keep the discs low. If they get wedged up in the palms, they're very hard to get down. I saw some dudes with a ladder and a pole trying to get a disc from the crown of a 60' palm. Good luck with that, guys.

Putt Putt
Pros: This course is well maintained. It is a city park that is normally not too busy. Typical hole length is 125-200' which make is great as a 2 disc course.
Cons: No long holes.
Other Thoughts: We use this course as a putting warm up before playing another course locally. You can play this whole course with your putter if you can drive with it. The possibility of acing a hole is high as many are under 150'/

change of pace
Pros: Great to work on your short game. Lots of ace chances, Quick, "no worries" rounds. Great place to bring new players.
Cons: Crappy, mudslide T-boxes.
Other Thoughts: So Reed's not a championship course, who cares? It's a fun, easy alternative to our other course (Tuscawilla park, Awesome) with no chance of losing a disc. A good mix of holes, some easy, some ridiculous, but it will give you an opportunity to use every shot in your arsenal. forehand, backhand, hyzerbomb, pinball prayer, tree love a plenty. Have a fun round at the canal.

Summer Vacation Discin`
Pros: The course itself is very easy to navigate and the tee signs a very clear as to where the baskets are. The fairways on the back nine holes are grass, which is fairly often mowed and well groomed. The hole assortment is amazing. You have shots that are wide open (1, 15, and 16 for example), tight and wooded like 2 and 3, and very small narrow alleys like 4. The design is great for people learning to play or just as a vacation round, which is what I used it for. The coordinates bring you right to the front of the park so it is easy to find. Probably the best part for families is there are several pavilions with benches and a nice playground for children.
Cons: The entire course is played next to/on a walking path through the park. So teeing off you have to be very careful not to peg a small child or elderly jogger. The tee boxes are made of loose fill dirt and could defiantly use some work (holes where plant foot goes for example). If you're not careful you can skip holes six and seven as there is no signage for the next tee at the end of 5. They are tucked away in between 11 and 12 and 4 and 5.
Other Thoughts: When you enter the park make sure to take a right hand turn and go until you can't drive anymore. Hole 1 tee box is right there on your left. Very nice park that is mostly shaded and easily accessible. If you play in the summer bring extra water as I went through almost two liters in one round.
