Some fun holes are ruined by a few really bad ones 2+ years drive by
Reviewed:
Played on:Feb 20, 2022
Played the course:2-4 times
Pros:
Beautiful park, nice tee pads, a few pretty fun holes.
Cons:
There's gravel underneath every basket and my putter got scuffed up. Who thought that was a good idea???
A couple of holes play over sidewalks and through pavilions.
Hole 7 is unplayable. There are no lines, you have to throw and pray.
Two holes share a fairway and we had to wait for a group to play the entire next hole to throw.

Other Thoughts:
It's not worth playing, there's too many bad decisions. Did a disc golfer even design the course?

Course Design And Layout By Dopey! 2+ years
Reviewed:
Played on:Oct 14, 2021
Played the course:once
Pros:
When the town of Dumwoody accepted the low bid from Snow White Disc Golf Course Design and Management, Inc. ( Previous disc golf courses designed and constructed = Zero) it may have just proven to be a mistake.
Snow placed Doc in charge of the signage and he performed masterfully. The course sign is colorful and shows the course map which is much more concise than Dopey's actual layout. Doc designed the colorful metal tee signs which are folded over three sides of the 4 x 6" posts. This design is unique, attractive and shows the hole # on both sides. But maybe more importantly was Doc's tireless efforts to place next tee signs all over the park helping us poor disc golfers follow Dopey's horrific layout.
Sneezy proved most ineffectual when after steeping in the woods for the first time came down with allergies and spent the remainder of the project getting allergy shots.
Bashful was in charge of basket procurement and contracted with Dynamic Veteran Company for nine lovely, blue Veterans basket. However, when the order arrived, Veterans had sent 18 baskets, nine blue and nine white. Bashful who was too timid and bashful to refuse, accepted the 18 baskets thus putting the entire project 40% over budget. Snow was forced to put a letter of letter of reprimand in his personal file. And for what it's worth, this course needs two baskets per hole like Kim Kardashian needs more butt.
Sleepy, too, proved most ineffectual as he was AWOL throughout the entire project hidden away in a dwarf detox facility. There's hope he can finally beat his chemical dependency.
Grumpy, in charge of the basket and tee sign installation was pissed off at Bashful for accepting the extra nine baskets, that he, Grumpy, now had to install. First, he managed to install the first three baskets about 4-6" too low. Then he managed to somehow place three tee signs at the front left corner near the pad, never a comfortable location for us RHBH throwers.
Happy stumbled upon some magic mushrooms in the woods and mostly stayed happily stoned throughout the project.
So, with a skeleton crew, Snow was forced to appoint Dopey to the important position of design and layout. First, Dopey decided to design a nine hole course that has the players walking about three miles. Play two holes, walk two blocks following Doc's great tee signs, repeat and then repeat once or twice more.
His next great design move was to assign holes 5 & 6 the same fairway, each playing in opposite directions. Most likely, very few players will ever persevere on this course until hole 5 so it's probably a mute point.
Or how about Dopey's decision to design a course that no intermediate player would ever think of playing and include a few intermediate holes. Or how about another of Dopey's design idea to place hole 4 where players will be playing through a picnic shelter with the very real possibility of their discs landing on the roof of said picnic shelter.
Dopey did, however, strike gold, when trudging out of the woods after studying the 9th hole when he suddenly came to the realization that he was now back at the community garden where the course actually begins. Dopey was heard to mutter eloquently (in his best Jeff Spicoli impersonation) "Oh, Wow, Man"!
After his debacle on this project, Dopey was subsequently relieved of his duty by Snow and was rumored to be homeless and living in a tent in downtown San Francisco.

Cons:
Please see above just about everything Dopey, Bashful and Grumpy contributed.
Other Thoughts:
In conclusion, I believe this course might be better off left to the dwarfs. There were no other players playing the day I played. I conclude they probably just couldn't find it in this large maze like park or they attempted to play it once before and have now vowed to never return.
