Decent Beginner Course/Footgolf Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 26, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

I want to say this is a flat, beginner course... However two of the nine holes that a beginner wouldn't even want to play in hopes of losing a disc by throwing over this large creek with a two story drop of doom to lose a disc.

Even advanced players have to think twice about throwing a high dollar disc in those dicey spots.

Baskets were all in great shape. 6 of 9 holes were well mowed and maintained.

All baskets doubled as foot golf baskets.

Tee pads and signs were great and correctly labeled.

Cons:

Holes were either way too flat and easy, with the exception of two that were so difficult to not lose a disc altogether as you heave over the creek.

There is a lot of baskets in sight on each tee pad, so you have to double check you are aiming at the right spot.

Luckily no one else was there when we went, but there could be some definite FORE opportunities with multiple groups playing.

One of the water holes has an 'alternate' route where you can throw 200 feet out of the way and use the bridge as the fairway, but the 5 foot bridge (with gaps in the wood that makes it up) is just as good of a chance to lose the disc as it is to heave it over the water from the tee off.

Plays along the walking trail and you might not see people coming.

Other Thoughts:

Seven of the holes are great for beginners, very flat and open.

Only one hole where an advanced player needs to give a full length drive.

It is in a nice park with a playground, baseball fields, and a fenced in soccer field on a tennis court area and a large shaded picnic shelter.
