Here is another recent review:
" PROS: A lot of fun holes with interesting elevation change elements. Good course design with lots of open space. Great natural terrain to walk through. Relatively tough to lose a disc. Good parking and fairly easy access. All around solid course."
Your review review:
PROS:
tough to lose a disc--that's good meat, IMHO.
Good elevation change--some folks hate flat courses. Some hate elevation. Good info to have.
Good parking. Again--just good factual info.
CONS:
A lot of fun holes--tell us why YOU think they are fun. Must be something you like about them--distance, flight path needed, low ceiling, wide open fields with lack of trees, deer strolling across the fog-filled meadows. OK I'm getting a bit out there but you get the point.
Good course design with lots of open space--why is it good? Does good to you mean open/wooded mix? Does it mean no long walks between holes? Does it mean some straight, some left to right, some right to left? Explain how lots of open space meshes with your review title of "woodsy area".
I honestly think you are pretty close to getting to a more thumbs up place. Just describe some of your comments. The course is fresh in your mind, most of us have never been to that course, so we have no idea about it at all.
I seek out courses when I am out of town based solely on reviews provided on DGCR. Udisc is worthless as a review tool, most here would agree with that. And its not just the stars I look at--its what I in the mood for. Sometimes its park setting. Sometimes its elevation change. Sometimes its a short course because I only have an hour to kill, etc. Mu current wish list is made up mostly of courses I have read reviews on and decided I gotta play that one.
Final thoughts--I don't think anyone is 'hating' your reviews, I don't notice thumbs down much, just few thumbs up. There are reviews out there with ZERO up and many down votes. So you are closer than you think!
Also--another reason I am spending some time here is for any other reviewer who may get discouraged, and read the thread title and think--yeah, me too!
Good luck!
