Other Thoughts: All in all I was decently surprised when I played this course with my girlfriend. We happened to be in the area and had some time to kill so we played the full 15. There is a beautiful garden right in the middle of the course, so be careful with your throws! When we played there was a lot of traffic so the thought of hitting a car with a disc was always in the back of my head as well. I will def be back to play it again.

Played: 221 Reviewed: 36 Exp: 4 Years
Pros: Maps and scorecard available by hole #1, Maintained garden as OB, manicured lawn with a couple large decidous trees that will challenge most skill levels with elevation changes and distance holes and best of all its free!
Cons: Course design/layout causing potential risks.
Other Thoughts: More is not always better in this case. Full use of the land is definitely apparent with fairways crossing parking lots and each other. All four corners and all four sides of the block is used. Dont let this course fool you the length of some holes are challenging and I suggest a spotter when teeing off from hole#7 and #14. Volunteers that work in the garden have been hit by discs lately!! Hence the spotter.This is a course that is great for most skill levels of play for a quick fix of DG.
Like others have mentioned I have seen discs hit the church and its only a matter of time before a window is broken. The course gets used but more than two groups playing the course consider it crowded and start yelling fore! Lots of high risk factors that can result in damages to homes, buildings, parked cars, traffic in the right of way and pedestrians.
I'm happy there is a quick fix available on my way home from work now!!
UPDATE
==================================
They have recently added reflective collars with numbers on each basket, much easier to navigate the course now. I did talk to the Son-in-Law who lives on site and gave him some feedback.This is a work in progress course and the work done since I reviewed it has bumped up my rating as well.

Good use of available space
Pros: This course was put up at a church in order to give locals a place to safely play (I spoke with a church member that was there setting up for their Easter Service). The course uses the available land very well. It plays up, down, and across the hill the church sits on. It uses the trees, buildings, and terrain as obstacles.
The person who set it up did well with what he/she had.
The longest throw is over 400 ft (uphill) and the shortest at about 150 feet, so there are places for you to crank it and an ace run or 2.
The grounds are well maintained and are mostly grass.
There were several people playing and I was informed that the course gets very consistent use. I can believe it.
They use DGA Mach 5's except the one on 9 which is a Innova Discather Pro portable version.
They were very imaginative and did well to get what they did out of this.

Cons: The tees are dirt and marked by a board with the hole number on it and a flag to identify it. But are in no way groomed and a couple are a bit awkward. Someone dug up 14 and it is not safe to use as of this writing.
Traffic is on 2 sides of the course, so an errant throw could be an issue with both the vehicles and the pedestrian traffic that was steady.
They use the buildings well for obstacles but it is only a matter of time before a disc goes through a window.
Lots of criss-crossing so be aware of those around you.
To play the course as laid out you will need the map or its hopeless.

Other Thoughts: All in all I had a good time and if I lived locally would play it consistently.
I have played a good number of these backyard/church courses and this one is as good as any.
If in the area and you want a quick game this will do well. Or if you want to practice putt and approach or rollers it would work well.

Local and Fun
Pros:
- This is a fun course with a nice variety of of elevation shots.
- Nice variety of distance shots and short "par 2"
- Baskets are nice. All are Mach IIIs except for one Discatcher Sport.

Cons:
- Almost all of the holes are open or have just one tree in the fairway.
- The fairways cross, which isn't too bad if you're the only person out there (which I was when I played), but if there is anyone else it could get dangerous.

Other Thoughts: I live in Sherwood so it's nice to have a course nearby even though it's not spectacular. I can still see myself coming here once a week in the summer to practice.
If you're in the area, I would suggest checking it out.
