Pros: As noted before, the homemade baskets are pretty neat, and the tee markers (sections of an old concrete silo) are unique. Taken individually, several holes are interesting/challenging, but...
Cons: Yikes! Talk about an unsafe setup. I would feel reasonably safe on only two holes (7 & 8) if there were other groups playing or if folks were using other park facilities. For the rest of the holes, there is an excellent chance you will either hit or be hit.

The tee markers, while unique, are hard to find for a first timer. A map or posts would be helpful.
Other Thoughts: The effort is commendable, but the course needs to be reconfigured ASAP. It is only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

Pros: - Funky wire numbers on the top of the homemade baskets.
- Several fun, interesting tee shots!
- Park seems very well maintained.
Cons: - Incredibly unsafe design! Hole 1 shoots over the Hole 9 basket. Hole 4 shoots over the Hole 3 basket. Hole 5 shoots over a basketball court. Holes 6 shoots over or immediately adjacent to a ballfield. And Hole 9 shoots near/over the Holes 1 (blind) and 5 baskets, along with the Hole 6 tee area.
Other Thoughts: I thought it was a quick, fun recreational course to play, but assuming those other courts/fields are used from time to time, that course is an injury/accident/argument waiting to happen. Never seen as many overlapping or criss-crossing fairways as this course has. Too bad, as it wouldn't surprise me to hear that the course has been pulled for safety reasons a few years from now.
