Good warmup/Practice course
2-4 
4/10/2013 
4/30/2013Pros: Good for a quick round.
Cons: Short and some of the holes are tightly wooded. Also the wooded holes can be muddy after rain.
Other Thoughts: The course is close to where I play sand volleyball during the week, so I try to play it before my games. Since it is only 9 holes can get some quick practice in.

Arnold city park Pros: Good setup and very changeable with the winds so good Still the best Course by far would recive a higher rating if had tee sign to point where the basket is
Cons: Still no tee signs just small markers and no tee pads

good practice course Pros: Good on cooler or windy days as sun shines on 1st 4 holes and the woods block some of the wind. Playable in winter when sun is out. 1st 4 holes are longer, good for practicing distance, not much challenge. The last 5 holes are short wooded holes. Each pin has 2 tee boxes.
Cons: No cement pads, only 9 holes.
Other Thoughts: Great course to learn on especially if you live near Arnold.
Arnold City Park
Pros: 1) Not a bad course for beginners. As a first time player, I didn't feel totally overwhelmed with difficult shots.
2) Some holes are good for short driving and others are good for working through lightly wooded areas.
3) I find this course good for a quick practice. Partially because its a five minute drive from my home and its not a long or complicated course.

Cons: 1) There aren't tee pads to throw from.
2) Its not all that impressive. There isn't much variety. The first time I played on it I found it slightly boring.
3) If you want a nice challenge, Arnold City Park is not something I would recommend.

Other Thoughts: I don't want to bust on this course too much, but I really can't give it too many props. Its not that exciting, but if you are looking to maybe sharpen some shots and skills, this wouldn't be a bad course.

Pros: A fun course. Locals are very friendly. Easy and relaxing if youre just looking for a quick nine. A good variety of open and wooded holes. A lot of improvements have been made, such as mulching the wooded fairways, recently. Also a practice basket available at the beginning of the course.
Cons: While the course has multiple tees, they dont always make sense. Sometimes they arent that far apart, and other times the tee is almost in the fairway of another hole. The mandos are also a little ridiculous, especially on hole six. In the picture it shows the mando on the hole as to the left of two telephone poles, but now its actually between, which is sometimes hard to hit with the angle of the tee. Trash can become an issue.
Other Thoughts: I do enjoy playing this course, as it is quick and fairly easy. Multiple birdie and ace opportunities, and i have hit some of both. However, dont underestimate it as i have before, still take it seriously.
Warm up Course
Pros: Its a good beginner course in my opinion. Fairly easy to see bright orange baskets. The first few holes let you get warmed up in the open and work on distance while the back side forces you to work on more control over distance.
Cons: It has been a little muddy on the wood holes a few times I played. Hard to find the first time you look for it unless your familiar with the park. Could use a few signs directing from the park entrance.
Other Thoughts: As a pretty new player I like to take my friends there to introduce them to the game. Its convinent for where they live and gives them space to try out the game. It is not challenging for more experienced players, but then that is why we go to different courses for different levels of play

fairly nice little course
Pros: baskets in great shape, easily seen with the orange paint. pro and amateur tees. never seen it very busy/ usually no waiting. hard to lose a disc. practice tee at parking lot. bathroom/pic-nic areas at parking lot
Cons: couple of big hidden holes in open fairway, old road running thru front 4 holes will scratch and ding up your disc pretty good if you hit it.
Other Thoughts: not a bad little 9 holer, good practice course. can only really air it out of a couple holes. finesse shots thru woods can give you easy birdies on a few in the woods. all in all, i like playing this course

Skip it Pros: The pros....well the baskets were easy to see. Oh ya easy to get a bird and you won't loose a disc.
Cons: This course is very short. The first four were somewhat ok for distance. But there was no technique needed, if you kinda throw straight and can make a putt you get the birdie. The wood are crazy short, with little challenge. Doesn't seem very imaginative coure design. Signage has been destroyed by vandals, along with basket 4.
Other Thoughts: Save your gas money go to JB or Festus you'll have a better time.
It's a disc golf course...
Pros: It's tough to find positive things to say about this course, but there are a few.
The baskets are in fantastic shape and the bright orange top rings are very easy to spot.
The course has a practice basket right next to the parking lot and the lake for you to warm up on (but it's always been a bog of standing water when I've been).
Holes 2 and 3 give you a good chance to throw a decent length drive with nothing much in the way and no real elevation changes so you can certainly use it as an opportunity to practice some basics and keeping your discs flat and straight.
Holes 4 through 9 are really short and provide an opportunity to attempt some nice long putter/ace throws with a fair amount of obstacles. Hole 3 has a huge fallen tree right in front of the basket that I can't tell whether it is on purpose or incidental, but I like it.
The grounds are nicely manicured where applicable and there is really no way you'll be losing a disc here.

Cons: Well, there honestly isn't much to the course. The property is flat and there isn't much in the way of creativity. Each basket has been cemented into the ground and there are no alternate positions.
The natural tees are becoming a bit worn and the tee off for 1 is a little hard to deal with being half on/off a walking path.
The 5th through 9th holes are all ridiculously short and each one seems very much just like the other - in the marsh with some thin trees, and a short hyzer/anhyzer to the open basket... the same distance as the last.
The really big problem here is water. Those short 'woodsy' holes 5 - 9 are all below flood stage and, of the 5 times I've been by to play (a friend lives in the neighborhood), were under a foot of water and were being patrolled by angry ducks. Completely unusable.

Other Thoughts:
I suppose that this course could be improved by expanding the space a little to get 5 of the 9 holes into the open area and give more room for some variety on the last section. I don't think anything can really be done with the available space to get the course out of the flood plain... so that is what it is.
Wasn't bad for practice, but it just isn't much of a game playing Arnold City Park.

Fun. Not Challenging.
Pros: - I found this course to be a great warmup course.
- You will not leave this course angry at yourself as below par is very easy to achieve.
- You will not leave this course angry at yourself as below par is very easy to achieve.
Cons: The course is tightly packed inside of a looped walking trail so watch for people and dogs. Out of the nine holes you will find only a repetitive set of short fairway shots and a repetitive set of short wooded shots. No restroom.
Other Thoughts: It's only a few miles from Jefferson Barracks and West City. If you can, just drive a little further to those much better courses.
