Pros: -Very Nice Tees, two for every pin.
-Nice Baskets
-Fun layout! Nice Loop around the park!

Cons: -Very Hot
-Nasty water. If your disc goes in it's as good as gone. (Mine went in)
-Confusing layout around Pin 2. It was difficult to know which pad was Tee 3.
-Missing hole info. It seems the tee markers have been vandalised, and so it makes finding the next tee rather difficult. Also, we ended up starting on hole 10 instead of 1, simply because we didn't know which hole was which.

Other Thoughts: This is all in all a very fun course. I would certainly recommend it. Just be sure to keep your disc out of that water. And as always, it'd be nice if there were more than 10 holes, but oh well. I certainly believe a little facelift could be used here though. Get info at the tees, and put decals on the pins to indicate which pin it is.

Pros: The holes were very well spaced out. Nice hole lengths and mix between left and right curves to the basket. Nice concrete tees and variety of trees vs no trees.

Cons: Hole 1 hard to find at first. The distances or numbers and location of all the baskets are not marked well on the tee. If you throw in water, i would imagine it is basically impossible to get the disc back.

Other Thoughts: Other than it being pretty dry and sandy/rocky, very nice course. Sometimes you have to wait a little for cars to drive by because a few holes are pretty close to the drive, but an overall fun course.

Pros: This past year the City of Abilene has cleared the park's creek that runs throughout most of the course. Pesky brush and dead trees were removed giving the course a new, clean, makeover look. The City also put in dual short and long and REVERSED cement tee pads which is awesome and lengthens the course with the space provided. With little traffic through the park, anytime of day is a good time to get a round in as it is a quite and clean park.

Cons: With the new clearing, the park can almost play against you. The slopes are vicious on 4 holes with no back stop like before, giving it a new degree of difficulty. With new tee signs in the works, replacing the warped wooden sign is next on the clubs list of to-dos.

Pros: The course provides a lot of interesting challenges with varying elevations, water (which affects at least four holes), mandos, narrow holes, and different angles. Whoever laid it out was definitely thinking of how to make a good disc golf course, and not how to fit as many holes in an area as possible.

Cons: If you go OB, which is very likely with the small spaces to play around every basket, you will almost certainly lose your disc. Also, some of the holes are not as well marked as others, but anyone could figure out the layout.

Other Thoughts: I gave it a 4.0 rating, just because of how challenging it is. It is definitely the most challenging course in Abilene, and probably one of the most challenging in all of West Texas. Possible Improvements: more holes and updating the signage on a couple tees. Beware: beginners WILL lose discs. Wait to play this one until you've gotten down your accuracy. Power will not help as much here.

Pros: This course is very well laid out; it uses the park well. Several baskets are protected by water, trees, and/or road, which must be OB. There are some elevation changes and a good variety of distances for the holes, though only 2 holes had distances marked at the tee. After playing both, I prefer this one to Cal Young, though it is only 9 holes. (UPDATE: The course has been greatly improved with both long and short concrete tee pads on every hole with distances marked.)

Cons: Having baskets near the road adds difficulty for some holes, which I like, but there were several times when I needed to wait for cars to move through before I threw. On hole 8 I would be concerned that a car could come into view after the disc was released and be hit by a drive that flew past the basket. Several of the tees were totally unmarked. I had to get help finding the tee for hole one. I found the tees for holes 5, 6, 7, and 9 by wandering in the general direction where I thought they might be. There are short boards in the ground at the front center tee-off position. (This problem has been remedied. The new concrete tee pads are nice and make the course easy to navigate.)

Other Thoughts: The layout of this course is very nice. The two baskets reported missing on the PDGA directory have been replaced with Discatchers, which are new and great.If it were well marked, I would give it a higher rating. Say "hello" to the dedicated watch dogs in the yard next to the tee for hole 4. They will introduce themselves when you get into the area.
