Reviewed: Played on:Oct 5, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course has beautiful brand new baskets that are bright orange and easy to see for the shorts. There are permanent bean bag toss boards in case you need to wait to hit the course. There is even a cool giant bell to ring on hole 1. The long baskets or alternate locations which are not in yet, would be borderline decent and could potentially merit a half point higher score. There are 2 good holes on this course, 15 which is a short tear drop down and back up a hill, and 18 which is a big bomber and even though there are no obstacles to deal with, 690 feet downhill is always fun.

Cons:

I am very disappointed in this course. This is a course for beginners only because there is no challenge. A beginners course CANNOT merit anything above a 3.5 period. This is a wide open course with a few exceptions. There are recently planted trees and bushes on the wide open holes but not as obstacles at all, more as future ways to separate one hole from the other. There is nothing to throw around on most of the holes. There is no technicality to this course. With all the new trees planted one would think on occasion, that one or two of them would be in the fairway to throw around or between, but that is not the case here. There are a few holes in the middle that are just, throw up an open prairie, throw down an open prairie, throw up the prairie, throw back down etc. with no obstacles on the hole nor anything to separate one hole from the other besides some new 2ft tall bushes which makes it a safety concern as well considering this course will only bring in beginners who are still trying to figure out how far right they have to release the disc to get it to come back to the middle.

Other Thoughts:

There is no way this course is remotely close to a 3.5, let alone the 4.5 that was given as the first review. I was so disappointed with this course considering it had such a high score. My trip to the area was a lot of fun, but this was by far the worst course we hit. It was simply just a waste of precious time on a short trip. I like technical or varied courses, Coralville is neither. Pretty much every hole is an ace run hole. Those are fun to have a couple times per round but not 15/18. If you are in this area hit Shaver park first and stay there and throw a second round before considering Coralville.
