Pros: This 9 hole course is set on a beautiful and generous piece of land behind an elementary school. The land is very grassy and dotted with several mature trees and just screams "put disc golf course here". There is plenty of parking at the back of the school. Look for the kiosk that has a full color course map. The baskets are older but in playable shape, and they are easy to spot as the land is flat.

Cons: The biggest con for this course is the tees, specifically not being able to find them! They are natural, and are marked by small, flat, stone markers in the ground that are flush with the ground. They are beginning to be covered by soil and the grass around them was pretty tall and thick making them nearly impossible to find. Holes 1 and 2 did have worn dirt spots so you could spot them easier, but the others were almost like finding a needle in a haystack. My group of 4 diligently searched for each one but only managed to find tees for 5 holes and we just made up the rest. Considering there are supposed to be 2 tees per hole (which should increase the odds of finding at least 1 tee for the hole) this tee design is just too frustrating to have to spend more time searching for the tee than the time it takes to play the hole. You either have to know exactly where they are via a guide or previous experience or have the GPS coordinates for each tee!

Other Thoughts: The course map shows 2 sets of tees for each hole and numbers them as 18 holes (1=10, 2=11, etc.). There is a playground and a fitness course in the middle of the area, but the course plays around the perimeter so these can co-exist without too much interference.

This could be a really nice course, but I feel a course has to have baskets AND tees to be considered a course. (This one might as well not have tees since you can't find them anyways.) Which is really too bad because the land is perfect for a decent 9 hole course. Bowling Green has so many good courses, so leave this one for the school kids to learn the game and practice on.

Pros: Natcher DGC is a decent little 9-hole course great for beginners. I really like that this course is located at an elementary school, which will be great to teach the younger kids about the sport, very cool. There is a course map located near the entrance, this is standard for all Bowling Green courses, and a nice feature (if you have a camera, I would advise taking a pic of the sign, it will be your best source for locating tees). The courses uses Mach 2 basket that are in good shape (except No2, has some rust and signs of wear), and natural tee areas, 2 tees per hole. There is one visible tee sign on a pole, that is at hole 1. The remaining holes use tee markers that are either small wood signs leaning against a tree, or concrete markers that are flush with the top of the ground, or both. Some holes have a concrete marker in the ground at the basket pointing toward the next tee. General course design is decent. The course is installed in a flat, open field with several mature trees spread throughout the area. There was no underbrush or anything like that to speak of, so other than throwing a disc in a cedar tree, not many places to lose a disc. No benches or trash cans on the course. All holes very short, so for any experienced player, this is going to be a pitch-n-putt course.

Cons: Tee signs/markers are my biggest complaint about the course. If I had not had the picture of the course map on my camera, I would not have been able to find some of the tees. The course map is semi-accurate, but not 100%, so it did help some, but still had trouble locating tees for 5, 6, & 8. As stated, most signs/markers are concrete markers set flush with the ground, so they are very difficult to see. Not much variety in the holes, pretty straight forward mid-range/putter shots all the way through with minimal challenge for any experienced player.

Other Thoughts: Given that this course is installed on grounds at an elementary school, I'm going to assume the design intent was for the kids. With that in mind, I'd say it is a perfect place for them to learn about disc golf. The course needs some updated signage and markers, other than that, a decent little 9-hole course.
