Pros: The course ia a nice little park for beginners. There is a map and makes it eaiser to navigate.The baskets are in good shape and have numbers for each hole.
Cons: The course is a little short and the tee pads could be better well marked.It gets tough to navigate,even with a map.The fairways could be cleaned up a little bit better.I played this course in the ice and snow and can get a little muddy and slippery, so watch your step.
Other Thoughts: This park could use some concrete or rubber tee pads for better stance. Also it would be nice to have numbers on the baskets so there eaiser to find.It looks like the park is big enough to add a few more holes to the game.But over all, the park is a nice little neighborhood park and I will play it again when in the area.

Pros: This course is easy to locate. There is a nice park and pavilion available for use. The course is mostly shaded on those hot summer days. The course is relatively well maintained.
Cons: Signage is not that great. If you have never played it before you will have a very tough time knowing where to go. Many of the baskets are hard to see. Summer time foliage makes this course even more challenging.
Other Thoughts: This course could use some tree clearing. I would not feel comfortable taking newbies to this course - they would hate the game!

 Organized Chaos

Pros: Marked holes have wooden arrows pointing towards baskets (if lucky) and estimated distance. Baskets appear to be Mach II with double chains, they sit low.
Cons: Dirt tee pads with a beveled wooden 4x6 to indicate edge facing basket. Baskets are hard to locate, so scouting ahead is advised. This is a short course, most holes 200-300ft long. As the course moves into the wooded area, things start to get a little tight and unnecessarily difficult for the length of this course. Finding the next tee or basket was not obvious. Too many trees make for unrecognizable fairways. Expect many tree collisions. This course is short but extremely difficult. It also appears to be poorly maintained.
Other Thoughts: Plays along a church (I assume owns the course), with a park, jungle gym, ball field and skate park. There are bathrooms on site. Lots of kids were playing on the skate park when I arrived, and I asked where the first hole was. They were kind enough to point me in the general direction and I was on my own from there. This course seems slapped in with little thought.

 Short course

Pros: A couple of tight wooded holes provide some challenge for accuracy. Reasonably well kept except for dirt patch tees. Well-marked.
Cons: Tees - throws on first four holes are bound to hit somebody in playground or on field - short.
Other Thoughts: It's nice to have another course in Montgomery County so I can do a quick nine or 18 after work.

Pros: Nice Park Setting, Signs pointing you in the right direction, Scorecards available, 10 minutes away from Branchwood Creek DGC (another 9 holer)
Cons: Park Activities on Ball Field may interfere, most Tees are mud with some tees placed on a gravel walking path used by others, Woods are thick with undergrowth and thorn bushes,
Other Thoughts: Good Recreational Course, would be great if tees had some gravel or other medium. Woods need to be cleared out more, lots of thorns and vines get in the way
Hole 1: Lightly wooded through playground area
Hole 2: Straight Shot to the pin
Hole 3: Straight Open Shot across the ballfield to a protected basket surrounded by trees and shrubs
Hole 4: Straight Shot from feild into woods with trees protecting hole
Hole 5: Heavy Woods, No fairway, just tomahawk it and hope you get close...
Hole 6: Tight Straight Fairway, moderately wooded to a protected basket
Hole 7: Straight Shot down walking path to a protected basket, tight fairway
Hole 8: Long Anhyzer shot through tight fairway to a protected basket.
Hole 9: Straight Shot through a Twisting Wooded fairway, follows path.
