Follets Park DGC is an "18" hole course located in the middle of nowhere IA. The park has nothing else in it except the disc golf course. No playground, no picnic tables, nothing. So there shouldn't be any other parkgoers to contend with.

The baskets are a mixed bag. There was one MVP Black Hole, two Mach II's and six single chained baskets, probably homemade if I had to guess. These were decent. The MVP was obviously the best, the Mach's next and the homemade ones the worst. One pin position per hole, but two tees for each basket.

Concrete tees for all tee locations. These were well done actually. All were level, grippy and tapered from wider at the back to about 4' wide at the front. Really nice tees for such a small park. They're holding up really well after all these years too.

The course has plenty of trees to contend with. There's only a couple holes that are pretty much wide open. The wind will always be a major factor out here with all the open farm fields for miles around to three sides of the course.

There are tee signs at every tee too which is very helpful. They have the hole #, par and distance. Very basic but this is more than enough info for this small park. They spray painted the hole # on each tee also which is just as, if not more effective.

Permanent, free to play and there are restrooms near hole 8. Probably hardly ever busy so you'll most likely have the place to yourself.

The course is completely flat. Not even a hint of elevation out here.

The course is listed as an 18 hole course but let's be real. It's a 9 hole course. Nine baskets with dual tees.

The homemade baskets don't catch very good. They're single chained and loose. These aren't very good. They work, but aren't ideal.

This is a decent little course. I'd be happy to have this near me. That said, it's not worth going out of your way to play here. Personally I'd consider this a nine hole course, and it's a decent one at that. If you're going to consider this an 18 hole course it's going to be on the lower end of the spectrum. Either way you slice it, it's good for what it is, and more importantly where it is.

-Hole length varies quite a bit. So even though the course is short overall, there are many places where you get to bust out the driver
-Most holes suggest a particular line, even if they aren't particularly tight. yes, the course is very much a flat, open course, but there isn't a single hole on the course where hitting a tree isn't at least a possibility
-Good teepads and decent baskets
-LOTS of birdie opportunities. Everyone needs a confidence booster now and then.

-Quite a few holes give up easy 2s.
-Flat with uninteresting scenery
-kinda remote
-for an experienced player looking to be challenged, this isn't the course you're looking for.

Most newer players that I know prefer to play here rather than the higher rated courses in the area, mostly because it's hard to get frustrated at Folletts. Sure there are good shots and bad shots, but bad shots aren't punitive and you can't lose discs.

For amateurs who want to just get out and throw a frisbee or two this is a very nice little course. Cement tee pads are a treat. Others complain about pitch and putt but this is nt a professional course, us amateurs also need to get outside!!

No changes in elevation, gets monotonous.

Seemed to be a underplayed course. I would say this is the most impressive thing about this course to me. Here is this little park in the middle of nowhere; that is almost entirely dedicated to disc golf.
Nice that you are told that those playing the front nine have the right of way. This helps greatly to alleviate "who goes now?" issues.
The park is very well maintained. Nicely mowed grass with trees here and there and some schule groves here and there and along the edges.
Concrete tees....pretty large even.
Nice baskets.
Restrooms on site; which seems somewhat odd for such a small park.
There are some obstacles to negotiate here. Not a ton; but enough to make it worth playing.

Course completely flat.
Largely open; and a deuce or die course. (I should add that there are actually some 300+ foot holes and so, it's not completely deuce or die)
A little tough to figure out how to play the full 18 hole layout. We had a map for our second visit and this helped. The signs are not bad; but can be slightly confusing the first time through.

Two of us played this originally, at dusk. We finished in near full darkness and not being able really to even read the signs; were quite stumped and guessing on some of the holes; as to how to play them. Thus, I lost one in the schule on what turned out to be a hole that we played incorrectly. Two days later; and a whole number of other courses played in the mean time; we returned; primarily to see if I could get my disc back. My hopes were not high; but, due to the fact that we had played an incorrect hole; no one else had evidently played near there and disc was located. This also gave us a chance to play the full 18 in a correct manner; and except for the openness and flatness of the course in general, combined with limited footage; we enjoyed the designer's using what they had to work with to the best of their abilities. Will I come back? Probably not; but this is a good example of making the dual tee situation work pretty well and creating different shots with both sets of tees. There is also a decent opportunity for some fun safari golf here. If this course is as underplayed as I think it is; there may be some quite good safari golf options, that could make this a quite enjoyable course. (though, there is no getting around the fact that it's completely flat). Interesting for it's type.....

-Gusty winds make the course much more challenging
- Cement tees always point directly at the pin
-Quiet course without any real hazards
-Great use of space, using 9 pins for 18 holes makes sense for this course

-Course signs would be very helpful
-Location is a bit of a drive from the Quad Cities

This may not be a course I'd drive to once a week, but I'll definitely make the trip again.

-Nice quiet park
-Well Maintained
-Concrete Tees
-Mach II Baskets?
-Public Restrooms Available
-Shelter House Available

-Signs need updating
-Course flow is confusing.
-This is a nine hole course, not enough room for 18. If it were to get busy it would be mayhem. Even though the back nine signs warn players that front 9 players have the right away.

This course was okay. Any course is better than no course. This one has enough real estate for 9 holes. Mature trees add some challenge, but it's pretty monotonous. I'll add another course to my resume, but it's nothing to write home about. Might play again if I'm in the area. In my opinion, it's not worth a road trip.

This is a nice little course that is out in the middle of nowhere. It's a good place to work on your straight driving because it is literally one huge "area" with not many obstacles in the way.

Doesn't offer much variety at all. The fact that there are only 9 cages but still 18 holes makes it somewhat confusing.
