Pros:
Baskets all in good shape
Tee markers are all there
Mostly away from other park users
Some good elevation and tree's
Cons:
A few holes you may find yourself with others on the course
A few holes that are just long and boring
Other Thoughts:
This is a 10 hole course with Red and White tee's marked. However they marked them Red as holes 1 to 10 and then White are marked as holes 11 to 20. So is it a 10 hole course with long and short tee's or a 20 hole course using 10 baskets?
Anyways, I played both sets of tee's as that was the only option on that other app. Well and when the tee boxes are labeled different numbers, I consider them different holes.
The park was dedicated in 1909 and has one of the oldest Carrousel's in the country. Really wish it was open when I played. There are many other things in the park dating back years. I happen to LOVE playing disc golf in old parks like this.
You start by the 1955 swimming pool with a shot that throws down beside the park administration office building. There is a creek if you manage to overthrow the hole.
The course then winds it's way around clockwise with hole 2/12 throwing along the creek behind the administration building.
Hole 3/13 throws across the creek with the dog pound to the right.
Hole 4/14 throws uphill along a park road. While not super long, it's hard to throw far uphill.
Hole 5/15 is a good open birdie hole with the road to the right and uphill to the left of the basket. There are a few large guardian trees blocking big hyzer shots.
Hole 6/16 is a good wooded hole along the side of the hill with the park road to the right.
Hole 7/17 is a big downhill shot with the basket under a tree just past an old boarded up building. Don't overthrow or you are in the road.
Hol3 8/18 are the longest holes, you are throwing across a long open field with a couple of large tree's. The pavilion could come into play if you are not careful. This hole also crosses a park road AND the Creek.
Now for the newer holes
Holes 9/19 and 10/20 throw back and forth across a large open area. The tee for hole 9 is back so you have to throw across the park road and hit a gap in the trees before you get to the open field avoiding the baseball fence.
After hole 10/20, you walk back over to the swimming pool. it's not too bad of a walk.
In general, this is your typical small town park course. I happen to love courses like this, not because they are good but because I love old parks, specially ones built in the 30's. I didn't realize there was a carousel in the park till I was leaving and saw a sign for it. Of course I turned around and went back to check it out. Built before 1900 and purchased by the city for the park in 1909, its one of the oldest of it's kind still in working condition.
Would I play here again? Well, no matter how much I loved the park, I have already played the course and would probably skip it. The course is ok and has a couple of decent shots. I will admit I threw one of my longest air shots in a long time on hole 20. I got the birdie on an almost 400ft hole.
