Pros: Good Concrete Tees (except 2)
Good Baskets
Multiple Pin Placements
Tee Signs with hole number
Next Tee Directional Signs
Plenty of Benches
A Few Trashcans
Plenty of Parking (during construction, park south of Senior Center and start @ 3)
Well Kept
Very little trash
Nice defined Fairways (except 2, 18)
Great Risk/Reward
Good Variety
Some elevation change (subtle, sneaks up on you)
Some short/some long
Left/straight/right
Line Shaping required on most holes (awesome)
Mix of Open and Technical
Shorter Holes had forced Lines (for the most part)
Longer Holes had room to work your disc
Enough underbrush to punish a bad shot without making it just too tough
This Course flowed very Well even with the construction making You start at 3. Navigation wasn't too difficult even with out the two guys who showed me around.
Friendly Locals
Lots of fun

Cons: Take a map for your first time there. Not only to get around but to find the starting place (#1 or 3)
Tee Signs need more info than Hole #
#2 Needs a Tee Pad and maybe a couple of trees removed from the fairway (no big deal)
#18's Tee Pad is cracked and some small trees block all approach angles (no big deal)
The cleared brush and trees to the right of 9's fairway opens up the danger of throwing into a busy street, especially if the wind is from the South.
#10 has a small chance of a rollaway ending up in another very busy street.
Could use a few more trashcans but the ones present are emptied often enough that there isn't a trash problem.
I wish there was more elevation change, but we are in central OK. Only so much to work with.

Other Thoughts: This course is definitely worth a drive if you haven't played it. Also worth hitting if you are in the City and want a change of pace. One of the cleanest courses in the Metro Area. (At least when I went). I will be back, I know I can improve my score by 7-8 strokes and its bugging me.
Thanks to the locals I met while there so I didn't have to consult a map to find my way around. Thanks Rusty and Eddie.
My "Disc Rating" is weighted heavily toward "Fun Factor," which this course has plenty of. Then I bump it one direction based on amenities/safety.
PM Me and let me know how my reviews can be more "helpful."
As the construction continues and the improvements are worked on, I will update my review when I get back up here. PM me if something is irrelevalt and that will give me the excuse to play it again.

Report this Review Course in Transition
Pros: This popular course in Edmond (northern suburb of OKC) features a variety of holes that will challenge line-shaping and control for even experienced golfers yet isn't as overwhelming (as say Griffin) for beginners. Amenities include concrete tees (except for the new Hole 2) that are intentially roughened for good grip (though I've never played in the rain so not sure how effective it really is), guidance signage to get you to the next hole, multiple pin locations that are frequently rotated, a good balance of lefty/righty holes, great use of elevation and existing flora, and a definite fun-factor. Benches are scattered throughout the course as are the occasional garbage can. In the spring and summer months, the high grass in the roughs and the thick underbrush can swallow many a disc. The thick spruce and pine lining several of the tunnel holes also have an appetite for plastic which forces critical thinking skills and a good understanding of things like splinters, scrapes, and their relative value compared to plastic.
The recent changes to the park have simplified two of the existing holes (9 & 10) but the two newly relocated 1st and 2nd holes have more than replaced the challenge level of those that were cleared out. This shows a level of consideration and design intent that is rare in most Metro OKC courses.

Cons: Signage is extremely basic (hole #), course crosses over itself and comes within horrific grip-lock distance of an extremely busy walking/biking/running trail on two holes. The on-going construction has forced the relocation of the first two holes and the course sign/map was nowhere to be found. The practice basket has disappeared as well. These last two may be temporary until the construction is finished so I'll update this review once it becomes apparent which way those issues shake out.
I wasn't a fan of the first hole on the old layout and the jury is still out on the new opening hole. I loved the old Hole 2 and it has been squashed into oblivion due to the revised layout and replaced with an extremely restrictive wooded hole. Basically, both holes have been forced deeper into the woods due to the new building. Hole two appears to still be a work in progress as far as a tee box, signage and some clearing. The tweak to 18 (removing any doubt of it being lefty friendly by moving the pin south into the woods) is also a necessity due to what appears to be a new road to the north. Not sure if the changes are enough to prevent it from being an issue in the future.

Other Thoughts: One of my favorite courses in the metro. Still worth playing even with the confusion and difficulty of the construction and the travel time from most of the metro area. This course used to feature one of the best course maps/signs in the metro but only time will tell if it comes back. However, this course STILL features one of the best "flows" within the metro. The on-going construction to the north of the Senior Center has cause the relocation of the first two holes. A tight, lefty-friendly 1 and somewhat-signature blind 2 have been replaced with a long wooded tunnel for 1 and deceptively-protected, heavily-wooded (may still be a work in progress) Hole 2. The second hole now feels pretty similar to an unholy union of a couple of other holes on the course. The pavilion (and associated parking) indicated in the posted (on this site) course map exist, but are not really relative to the course any more. This may be temporary due to construction as well. It also appears that a new road to the new building under construction will run parallel to the modified 18th. The trees/brush on the side of two of the other holes (9 & 10) have also found their way to the wood-chipper which simplifies both of those holes for righties. Much more room to move, especially on the short pin placements but busy Covell and Santa Fe Roads are more "in play."
Despite the recent changes and the lack of brush (not quite spring yet), it is still a frequent "Hot Spot" for DG in the OKC area. This is a well-designed course and it's maintained for the most part. With the on-going construction, I recommend parking south of the Senior Center and walking in past the pond to hole 3 to start the round. I'm going to give the course the benefit of the doubt as it's still in transition. I think I like where I see this going...

Hidden Gem Pros: The holes were very well laid out, most had signs pointing in the direction of the next tee box. A good mix of short and long holes, left and right as well.
Cons: More signs declaring hole length, more signs declaring where the next tee box is, would be helpful. Couldn't find hole one due to the construction but did find hole 2 and teed off from grass near the constuction site. After playing thru 18 and then finding hole 1, realized you come out of the woods behind the basket for hole 2, could be dangerous.
Other Thoughts: More signage by the parking lot to direct everyone to the course, if I didn't have the map I probably would have never found it. If in Edmond I would definately play this one again.

Favorite Local Course
Pros: Amazing course designed by a young man who passed away before it was even finished. I met his parents and they are very supportive of the disc golf community.
This course has a great mix of shots. It will test your skills in distance and accuracy. There are two pin positions for each hole and they are changed in many different configurations throughout the year. The course is fairly well maintained and there is rarely anybody there. Somedays, I feel like I have the whole course to myself. Some of the other courses nearby are saturated with herds of golfers that expect you to wait behind them. Tye is usually wide open.

Cons: TREES!!!!! Not really a con unless you throw into one. The evergreens will eat your discs alive.
Also, they are building a new sports complex that interferes with hole 1 and 18. 1 is actually gone for the time being and 18 has been created with a practice basket in the woods. I heard the holes would be redesigned to fit in the same area and not interfere with construction.

Cons: -On-going Construction will hamper the drive in as well as some of the holes (3, 10)
-The rough is very rough
-Tee signs are not in the best shape
-course has a jogging and bike track which is a blind area on one of the holes if you have any grip lock so be careful you might hit someone.

Other Thoughts: I recently played this course with a group of five. Although we are not the most experienced group we are not beginners. It took us three hours to play through this course. we had to stop and look for discs numerous times even though they were not thrown very far into the rough. Lost a disc on hole 8 (Neon Yellow Star Orc if you find it please return it). By far what made this course a three star is the locals. They do not understand the rules of the game (got thrown on six of the holes by different people), and they have no consideration for anyone but themselves. I recommend this course but play early in the mornings before high schoolers are up or the mid life crises guys are off work. Again very technical course, forces you to expand your shots, and requires you to watch your disc!

I enjoyed it!
Pros: The course was pretty nice. It was secluded from the rest of the park and off by itself which is nice, cause you wont have random people walking through. The signs were ok, and the tee-pads were decent.
Cons: Lots of wooded holes. Not really that bad, but could be better if it had a few more open holes to play. I enjoyed it though. Need garbage cans!

A nice challenge
Pros: Highly technical course requiring a variety of shots. In my opinion, this is the most technical course in the OKC Metro area.
Well kept, year round. Multiple pin placements updated at least once a month make for a nice variety of holes even for the regulars. The course almost always has people playing, but is rarely ever crowded. Great course to improve your accuracy and line-shaping.

Cons: Very densely wooded. During the spring/summer months, it is very easy to lose discs from an errant shot. The technical nature of the holes can make this course less than pleasant for new players. The course is a little on the short side, overall. While some holes break the 400 mark, most of those rarely allow for a full drive and instead require a shorter layup. I really wish there were a few holes than you could really open up on. Ticks in the summer months can be a problems as well. Course layout is difficult to grasp if you've never played before.
Other Thoughts: This is a good course if you're in the OKC metro area. More challenging than Will Rogers or Dolese, the nearest competitor courses. I wouldn't agree with the previous reviewer that this course is boring at all. Instead, I would simply call it very technical outside of a few holes that back off the difficulty a little bit. If you can't throw accurately, a lot of these holes will give you trouble.

Not a Fan 
Pros: Basically, the only thing that makes this course worth the drive are the narrow fairways, requiring a lot of accuracy if you don't want to end up in the dense forrested areas or lose a disc.
Cons: The layout of this course was incredibly confusing and we got extremely frustrated while playing. We actually skipped hole 11 because, unbeknownst to us, you have to retrace your path back down the fairway of hole 10, which I think is a terrible idea. There were no maps on any of the holes, very few benches, and even the first hole was hard to find. The holes were so short and not particularly varied. I would say that they don't have any signature holes.
Other Thoughts: Maybe its just us(I am a newbie, and all) but my husband and I both really disliked this course. It was just plain boring. Definitely not worth a drive across the metro.

Glad to see the DGC so busy
Pros: This is a well taken care of course. While playing it you can see that the fariways and baskets are taken care of. The course itself has a good combination of tight shots, right legs, left legs, open areas and trees in the right places to make it challenging. There are no picnic areas and public gathering spots on the course so you are free to let the discs fly.
Cons: The course can be hard to follow if you are not familiar with it. Be sure to read the map at hole #1. This course is one the most likely courses in OKC to loose discs to the trees and foliage so use spotters and be careful. The parking lot can get very busy and when it's peewee sport time at Mitch Park, you might get boxed in so plan ahead. There are clean restrooms at the beginning of the course and plenty of benches to rest on.
Other Thoughts: This is in my opinion one of the best courses in OKC. It will test your limits at times but it will also make you work for your low score but it will make you better playing overall. Be sure to tap the local talent for tips on your game. The place is busy sometimes so there is always a change to stop and chat with a veteran of the game.
