They play WHAT in Edmunds Park? 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 19, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

What a surprise to find out SoBo has disc golf! Even more surprising was that the course is actually good and the park itself was very nice.. The course was fun and had a good mix of open and wooded shots. Some technical and some longer throws.

Cons:

A little readjusting could make this a champion caliber course. Only problem I'm guessing there are not too many locals who play, much less higher end players that can handle a bigger, tougher course. I guess it's fine the way it is.

Pros:

This is not a bad course. Although it lacks some creativity, I found that I never lost interest while playing. It is a mostly open course that plays over rolling hills with a handfull of shots in or around the woods. It was well groomed when we played which played a huge part in our enjoyment of the course. It reminded me a lot of Elberton or JP Mosely in Georgia. Just much easier. The park is easy to find and has a hugh playground for the kids. The first 3 holes play around a pond but it doesn't come into play unless you bypass the tee for hole 1 at the bottom of the hill and tee from the top. This is where the tee should be to begin with.See cons.

Cons:

Missed opportunities in design
Too many short holes in the 200-265 range
Dirt tee pads.
It is a tremendous walk from hole 18 basket back to the hole 1 tee.

Other Thoughts:

With the land this course is on, it could easily have a 4 or 4.5 rating. However, I get the feeling it was designed for the rec to intermediate type player. This isn't a problem, but it would get boring after the 3rd or 4th time playing it. If your looking for a course in a quiet country setting that is fun and not too challenging, then this is your place.
