Pros:
-great signs with par, distance, and map
-has a couple of fun shots that use the elevation, pond, and trees
-lots of open shots if you're wanting to bomb some drives
-really a pretty decent course for a college campus with homemade baskets
Cons:
-baskets are a good effort for homemade but they're still not very good
-not enough obstacles on too many holes
-the areas around the pond can be very soggy if there has been any recent rain
Other Thoughts:
Cuesta DGP is actually a pretty decent course for a small college campus. If only the whole course were executed as well as the signs! Some of the natural tees are not good and the college-made baskets leave a bit to be desired.
Most of the holes are wide open with few obstacles. The best holes are the downhill tee shot on holes 3 & 6, over the pond on hole 8, toward the pond and atop the bunker on hole 9, and the closest thing to a technical shot on hole 7 with a low ceiling, a number of trees, and the pond to the left. There are a few other holes that make use of minor elevation changes and patches of trees here and there but it's mostly forgettable.
I played about a week after some rain and the entire area around the pond was still very soggy. School was not in session so I had the place to myself. Not sure what it is like during the school year but I can't imagine there is a huge student body at this campus.
Could be worth a stop if you're on I-35 and looking to check out a new course. If you're going between Austin and DFW then Waco has better courses. Pretty much locals and course baggers only.
