Pros: The DG course in Lionel Forti Park utilizes the entire park. There are two sets of tees, the Blues (Longs) and the Reds (Shorts). I was short on time and daylight so I played from the Reds. Once I get orientated, the course was pretty simple to navigate. All I had to do was to look around for the red pole sticking out of the ground. The poles gives the hole #, distance and points to the basket. The pads are natural and are pretty rough and worn in places.
There were a couple of fun ACE runs from the REDS. # 5 is 251' downhill. You just need to put a little hyser on your shot to clear a post. Unfortunately, the West Texas wind put a lot of hyser on my shot.
The course starts and finishes at the same parking lot.
Cons: The baskets are showing their age. The natural pads are pretty rough in places. Luckily, I don't think this course gets a lot of play. At 6 PM on a lovely Friday night, I had the course to myself.
I didn't really like Red # 3 which has you throwing over the baseball field. There was a team practicing so I attempted to roll around the outfield fence. Just trying to be a good citizen!
Other Thoughts: I was pleasantly surprised by this course. The wind was blowing pretty hard at times but I understand that's pretty standard fare for playing in West Texas so get used to it. The course is in a nice hilly park, fairly green and grassy for hereabouts. I wish I would have had the time to play from the Blues!

Pros: Multiple tee boxes and distance changes. Played it early in the morning (9-11) and had the whole park to myself.
Cons: Didn't like hole 9 since you have to throw across the street plus not sure what the mando's were on that hole.
Other Thoughts: Overall the course is much, much better then the old one at Album park.

great updates to course

Pros: both red and blue tees make this course great for all skill levels.

lots of long drives
Cons: park is used for other events other than golf and its sad that noone after these events cleans up there trash
Other Thoughts: had a blast on my tour of the course with its designer played 9 holes from long boxes and had a wonderful time
