Worth playing 
Pros: * Makes good use of the available land and trees/bushes. Holes have variety and "fun" factor.
* Includes some longer holes (four par 4's).
* Not crowded.
* Grounds very well kept.

Cons: * Teepads. :(
* Almost entirely flat.
* No heavily wooded holes (though some moderately wooded). With little OB, this results in most holes having little risk of punishment for a poor throw.
* No trashcans or restrooms.
* A couple longish walks between holes (though not unreasonable).
* Not a huge variety of shot shapes required. Few holes require a RHBH player to throw an anny.

Other Thoughts: The numbering problem due to a hole being moved shortly after the course was installed has now been corrected. All signs are accurate as of this review. Additionally, each basket now has a small bit of tape on the cage that points out the direction of the next tee. Without a map or guide, some first-time players may still have difficulty locating holes 12 and 13, as they are not within immediate view of the previous basket.
The teepads (a green plastic grate imbedded under the turf, intended for use in high-traffic areas on playgrounds and such) are scheduled to be replaced by concrete pads "soon." For now, most locals just throw from beside the pad.
In short, it's a fun course to play and well designed. Not perfect, but a good work in progress. Despite the reviews, it is clearly the superior course in the area.

Pros: -Brand new baskets.
-Course is very well maintained/mowed.
-A few wide open holes to let you open up.
-Regardless of being flat there is good use of available trees and shrubery.
-Beginner friendly course (if you dont count the navigation debacle)

Cons: -Tees/Baskets dont match up. Hole 2 plays to 1's basket and so on until you get to hole 7 and there is no Basket 7. If this sounds confusing believe me it was even more frustrating to play.
-Relatively flat course.
-No trash cans.
-Tee pads are not only short but get very slick with dew/after rain.

Other Thoughts: From what I gather the course starts by the Custodial Services building with tee marker 2 and plays to hole 1.
Hole 7 I dubbed The Four Horseman. You not only have a long drive but have four towering pines 50 feet in front of the tee with 12 feet of clearance underneath. Kind of a cool signature hole.
Definately take a course map with you if you go. (I will be uploading one shortly)

Pros: Being at a very nice local university, the grounds are very well maintained. Baskets are brand new.
This is a great course to open your arm up and let your distance discs bomb...you'll need them.
Lots of room for being carved out of university grounds. Errant throws need to be WAY off before you get into trouble. Holes are a good distance away from sidewalks, roadways, and general pedestrian areas. Nearly impossible to lose a disc.
Course and Pro par is only 4 strokes apart.

Cons: Not too much variety in the holes. All very flat, with lots of long bombs with strategically placed trees. A couple of sharp dog legs, but that's about it.
Lots of walking between some of the holes. 100-150+ yards in some cases.
Course layout is very confusing to a newcomer.
I do not like the tee pads. It's a combination of heavy plastic mesh and a front brick border. The mesh is very slippery (especially with shoes wet from dew). I have to throw from the grass next to the tee.

Other Thoughts: All in all, a very nice course. Met new players here, joined in with them for a good friendly round of golf.
