Pros: very challenge with all the trees and stuff you have to throw around
all tees are cement
all holes are marked good so you can find the next hole

Cons: very challenging with all the stuff you have to throw around
in the winter seasons they lock the main gate so you have to park outside the park and walk back which is a pain

Pros: This was the course I learned to play on as my home course. High risk and reward course. Its a course where you can get a low score and a lot of birdies. I have birded every hole multiple times, but enough trees to work around that I have bogied every hole. Good course to work on winding your disc through and around trees.
Cons: Back 9 is very muddy and slippery after it rains.
Only two open holes where you can air it out.

Other Thoughts: If you go between Oct-April they may have the gates closed where you will have to walk to hole 5 and start there.
Cannot play during rodeo week (Labor Day thru following Sunday)
If you play after Rodeo there will be an abundance of horse droppings.

Nice course 
Pros: Multiuse park, small soccer field, walking path, lots of open areas for gatherings with a few open shelter buildings. I think I saw some playground equipment too. Park seemed to me maintained well, at least on the front 9. Another great DG park on same grounds.
Trash cans available. Kiosk area with some good information, best rounds and aces. Concrete tee pads. Nice, creative signs with measurements down to inches. A few blind pins.
Beginner friendly course. Great course to introduce newer players to wooded courses, and those with elevation, as there are 4 - 5 holes that include one or the other, or both.

Cons: Lots of very similar holes, mostly on the top 9, a few trees to navigate around with OB here and there.
Occasional walkers and runners on path, which to me isn't a true con, but worth noting.
Only three holes over 300', with the longest being 318'.
Navigation isn't too bad, but I did get confused a little after 11, as for some reason I thought 17 was 12, and didn't realize that till I got to 18 and figured out I messed up. A next tee sign would have been helpful, if there was one I missed it.
Trash cans were overflowing on the lower 9; I think hole 13 was the worst.

Other Thoughts: I played this course just after I played Pioneer. I was physically exhausted, but still really enjoyed playing. It is a shorter course and you'll be using quite a few putters and mid-range discs as the holes just don't require a high speed driver.
A couple of holes to note, 11 is a nice, tight, heavily wooded shot over a small ravine, that was fun. # 12 is an exceptional steep downhill shot, with the pin just at the bottom of the hill a few feet to the left. Not much room to allow for fade, so throw the putter, but not too far as there is rough after the flat at the bottom. # 16 was a steep uphill shot, but really short, just under 100'. At the time I played, the basket was missing, not sure if it was vandalism or it got washed out (though course updates state it was replaced).
Also, when I played for some reason the gates were shut, I had to walk from the airport road to the course, so I started with hole 5 I think then made the loop from there.
Overall, I had fun, even with some of the repetitive open holes. There are lots of chances for 2's, they aren't gimmies, but they are achievable.

good older course Pros: nicely groomed well maintained course. a little short but a good amount of ob and accurate shots are needed to shoot well under par here.
Cons: after raining the back 9 gets pretty ugly .
Other Thoughts: backs right up to the pioneer course, a longer and more difficult course. nothing wrong with shorter courses.

This course is crazy! But in a good way. 
Pros: I'm giving this a 2.0 rating which is amazingly high considering the lack of challenge provided here. However there are some fun shots to throw up and down some steep, treacherous wooded holes on the back 9. Its a deuce-fest for sure. Very good course for beginners. It would be a good course for a 1 disc challenge or something for experienced players. Otherwise probably not something a hardcore disc golfers would play often.
Cons: Holes are very very short and the baskets are in rough shape.
Other Thoughts: Don't play this course after it rains. There are some slippery slopes! I love the tee signs which have the hole design and the hole distance marked in Feet, Meters, and Inches! Always good to know how many inches you need to throw!

Pros: This course has a good mix of easy and tough holes. The layout is clearly marked. There is a little something for just about everyone on this course. Do you like trees? There are plenty of them. Wide open shots? They are there too. This course seems to be setup as an alternative to the nearby Pioneer Trails course, being set up for the less advanced player. Players of all skills can play a round here and enjoy themselves.
Cons: the back 9's layout could be a little more clear, but the local league has installed a few signs to help navigation. The course's location can be hard to find if you don't have GOOD directions. The course can be crowded at times, but what good course isn't.
Other Thoughts: This is a great course to enjoy a few rounds at. If you want to add to the feel of the area, you can cross over to Pioneer Trails after hole 15. Just follow the signs and start playing Pioneer's hole 13.
