Reviewed: Played on:Mar 5, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Post markers identifying throwing spots. Numerous holes with multiple tee lengths (see also cons)

Nice scenic walk through the park on a course that uses the woods and elevations well. There were also enough open holes to let that disc fly from time to time.

Some memorable holes:
#6 Great pin placement amid some pines that cause you to be bold and go through or safe and around the side.
#12 Down and up hole with pin placement on left side with plenty of tree protection.
#13 and #15 were similar basket on left side with tree protection... perfect for a RHBH sweeping throw!!
#16 blind throw through trees and over a small hill.

Cons:

Still a course in progress so I will not list anything here except the multiple pads were confusing and not consistent. Some had several, some had one, posts were by different ones from hole to hole.

Other Thoughts:

Ran into some of the course workers/ designers. They stated that it was still a work in progress. The "old" scorecards were still in the holders showing only 9 holes when there are now 18.

Adding some concrete tee pads to make all of one distance, be it red, white or blue, with pads would be great.

The course itself was relatively fun and flowed okay.

This was course #3 of a 4 course south central Illinois Sunday road trip. Wasn't the best course of the lot, wasn't the worst. Would like to see it again in it's completed state!!
