Funky pitch and putt to homemade buckets 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 15, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

+The layout actually isn't too bad considering the tiny size of this park. All holes are ace run opportunities and some of them are quite wooded. Stop by with your putter and run some homemade chains.
+Tees are marked on the ground and on the tree.
+Nothing else going on here but disc golf.
+Park seemed to be reasonably well maintained.
+Porta potty by small parking lot.

Cons:

-Homemade baskets. Not really good ones either. You could have a great ace shot bounce out due to the lightweight chains/construction of the baskets.
-Super short. Like accidentally overthrow with your putter short.
-No signage beyond holes #s
-Natural tees.
-Very small piece of land. Even 9 holes of super short disc golf and a small parking area are crammed in here.

Other Thoughts:

+One of the shortest courses that I have played.
+Can get a round done in about 10 minutes. Good for course baggers.
+Probably should have bought some baskets and tried to get a 6 holer in here.
+Not a lot to say about this tiny course tucked into a neighborhood. Try it with low expectations and you might have a little fun.

Kiddy Homemade Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 1, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

if I had to come up with something it would be that the grass is green and the trees are alive

Cons:

very short distances (150' avg.) - more like a putt-putt course, homemade pvc baskets (warped and lightwieght), basically flat terrain, no obstacles (other than some mature trees), no water

Other Thoughts:

This seems like another attempt of a city trying to give the community something nice and in the process disappointing the disc golf community. The full course is crunched on a 2 acre vacant lot in a residential area.
