Pros:
I was really surprised how much I liked the variety on this course (actually named the Carl Smith Memorial DGC), having come just to check it out. Throwing on these highly visible orange & natural "Arachnid" baskets was a treat. The three sets of chains and the deep cages caught great (a feature you're going to like on the creekside slopes on 8 & 10, as well as on the pedestal hole 14). And the tees were fantastic, with either large, level concrete or my personal preference, the paver stones locked in a large wooden box frames.
When you park by the water tower, you'll see the nearby practice basket and a large (currently empty) sign just across the little valley to your north, where holes 1 through 5 feature open parkland with large trees to define your lines. You get a taste of the woods on the pretty, left to right ace run on 6, where you throw from a recessed tee across that valley and to the top of the ridge just west of the water tower. After a short 'bomber' on 7, you play in the woods, slopes and creek for holes 8 to 12, and then up a long blind shot to the corner on 13, out to a raised basket on 14, along the wood line on 15, and back out into the open for the three finishing holes.
Though I didn't see them myself, there are supposedly alternate basket positions for each hole, so the course has even more variety. It already uses elevations and tree lines very well, without being overly punishing in length. If anything there is a slight advantage here for those who can shape lines left to right. Hole 12 is definitely laid out as a lhbh s-shaped fairway right now. I'd say this is a course geared to Intermediate level skills in terms of technicality, and Recreational skills in terms of length. And a major plus is the fact that the course doesn't pose much risk to the playground or shelter, and that makes it feel like a place with disc golf as the focus. Nice.
Cons:
The signage seems to be in flux here, with mostly just posts with the hole number in place right now. If it were my course, I'd put up some laminated temp signs and indicate 'next tees' somehow. I'd also 'mando' hole one left of one of the trees there to keep the rhbh hyzers away from the spiral slide. Not sure if they can do much about it, but the walk from 13 to the pedestal shot's tee at 14 seems oddly long. Finally, the open holes feel a little bit like they're just 'out and back' holes in terms of design, though they do afford the bigger arms to air it out a little that way.
Other Thoughts:
It's important to note that the tees are being renumbered (mostly just shifted by two), and that I sketched a new aerial map reflecting the changes. Also, I didn't ask the one other group that was on the course, but when I looked to my right off the 5th tee, I saw another basket and yet another tee, so I'm wondering if there aren't more changes and additions in store here. Excellent if so!
edit 3/17/15: in fact (h/t to dgcr member 'numbernine'), there are now letter holes A-F between holes 4 and 5, so it sounds as if you get another batch of fun holes in the woods before coming back out to the field to rejoin the existing course. And they're addressing the signage, so kudos to the Yorktown gang!
