Pros: Perfectly Manicured fairways and gorgeous surroundings make this one of the best courses youll ever play. It seems every hole offers something at this course, from huge elevated shots, and open air distance throws to tight fairways and unforgiving OB lines (especially when ropes are up). This course has several "Epic holes" that will have you anxious to play again and again.
Cons: The course can be a little tricky to navigate the first time.
Other Thoughts: This is an absolute must play for anyone that can find the oppurtunity. It's easy to see why this course is host to the USDGC and the sports best players.

Pros: In 13 years, this is my favorite course I have ever played. This 9800 ft par 68 world class course is located at Winthrop University and is the permanent home of the USDCG. Many holes play around a beautiful lake with a huge fountain including my favorite, #5, which is a 1053 ft, par 5 which concludes with a throw over the lake to a grass peninsula. Awesome! The shot variety is incredible requiring the most skillful mix of both power and accuracy. The gorgeous grass fairways are meticulously maintained. Under par is a world class round as the SSA for the 2007 USDGC was approximately 69. This course is not for beginners and it has the potential to beat down even the best, most experienced disc golfers. Rounds here can tend to be very humbling but also very rewarding.
Cons: The gold course wasn't set up year round in the past but this year it is in place now and is supposed to stay up during the entire year. There is plenty of yellow OB rope but that is intentional and part of what makes the course so challenging. There are few, if any, flaws with this course.
Other Thoughts: This is, by far, the most demanding course I have ever played both physically and mentally. If you are up for an extemely challenging, world class setup in an extremely beautiful setting, than this course is truly a must play. You'll be glad you did.
