Now my Favorite Course in Waco
Pros: -Absolutely beautiful park, especially the open front nine near the river.
-Good topography/elevation changes.
-Several holes provide a choice of more than one route off the tee.
-Concrete tee pads on every hole and all were in good shape.
-Excellent course length and hole layout that requires a plan for approaching most of the holes instead of just throwing straight for as far as you can off the tee and then deciding what to do next.
-Nice restroom facilities on site.
-Good mix of open and wooded holes, though some of holes that appear to be open have challenging lines to hit among the trees.

Cons: -No tee signs on much of the course and tee signs are definitely needed. We found navigating the front nine to be very simple and intuitive, though no signs were present. However, it would have been nice to have signs to indicate distances and clarify what is OB on each hole.
-The back nine had tee signs on most holes, but the absence of signs on a few holes made it difficult to navigate the hole and to find the next tee.
-There were only two places where the transition between holes was not clear, but we had to wander around a bit to find those holes.
-There are a few places on the back nine where the trees make it difficult to find a good line off the tee, but most of the holes have good, fair lines.

Other Thoughts: Maybe the perfect weather, the autumn leaves, and the beautiful river had something to do with it, but I was amazed when I played this course. I loved it. I have played Cameron Park several times on trips through Waco and never made it over to this park. From now on, this is my first choice for where to play in Waco.If this course had accurate signage on each hole, this would be a four-star course.

Tough to follow 
Pros: Park is easy to find, nice views for area. Park was not busy, was able to go at a good pace.
Cons: No tees are labeled. If you do not play with someone from the area it is very hard to follow. A course map would have been great!

Pros: - Incredible amounts of distance. The par-3's range from 300 to 500+ feet on average, and there's a decent smattering of par 4's and 5's. Easily twice as long as William Cameron Park ("West", as the locals call it).
- Excellent terrain challenges. From pins tucked within a cluster of oaks to narrow forest chutes, this course makes great use of its terrain. (18, a par-5 huck across some highway frontage, is the lone exception.)
- Many memorable holes, especially the peninsula shot on 6, question mark-shaped dogleg on 10, and canyon shot on 14.
- Newly renovated with plenty of parking and bathrooms on 1-9

Cons: - Course navigation is still an issue. 1-9 don't have any tee signs, and there are a couple of long treks between holes on the back 9. HELPFUL HINT: Bring a copy of the course map with you (look under the Links/Files tab here on DGCR). As you can see by the other reviewers, course navigation can be frustrating or impossible without one.
- Mosquitoes and ivy, as is standard for a wooded course
- Too difficult for noobs; if you can't throw 250+ with accuracy you will be frustrated. William Cameron Park is a much more enjoyable alternative in that case.

Other Thoughts: Brazos Park East offers a fun, challenging disc golf experience that ranks among the best in Texas. It's not a pre-padded luxury course, and your score will probably limp away in pain, but it is an absolute must-play if you're in the area.

needs work
Pros: back nine is very scenic. lots of trees and different shots needed. technical.
Cons: dirty. need to clean it up a little. no map to new holes. could not find the first basket on the new side. no signage. needs work. not playable if you do not have a local with you.
Other Thoughts: has lots of potential. located in a really cool park. stick to cameron park for now though.

playable, but not finished
Pros: Bathrooms and cement tee pads
Cons: not finished yet (front nine). most garbage of any course (back nine) a City of Waco park (poor maintenance)
Other Thoughts: Barely open for play, grass still filling in so respect it please. city of waco have been dragging their feet on this for a year and blaming the contractor.
Anyway the whole thing is open now. No signs yet or map but the front nine follow an easy to navigate path. The back nine are still painfully wooded but beautiful. Easy to navigate the woods and some signs on the back nine. Nasty garbage on most tees in the woods including human waste and dirty diapers. homeless camp back by twelve seams abandoned but advise caution. lots of broken glass in the back nine so dont wear flipper floppers.
