Jones Family Bark Park reviews

Mt. Juliet has a kind heart for Disc Golfing 2+ years
Reviewed:
Played on:Oct 26, 2015
Played the course:once
Pros:
A mini disc golf course. I wish more courses that have some extra space had a mini disc golf course to play. Most every Disc Golfer has a mini.
The day I played it had been raining heavily throughout the region because of Hurricane Patricia. So there was even a area that had water that was flowing pretty good for one of the later holes, I'm guessing that most of the time the water on that hole isn't in existence.
Not all the mini baskets we're at the same height. Which to me added to the fun factor as I couldn't (without a little practicing) count on my basic mini putt (if all the baskets we're at the same height).
round Cement tee pads for the mini disc golf course (no run ups when driving allowed. One's feet have to be positioned on the round cement tee pad when driving)
Of all my travels, I've never seen a Driving Range for regular Discs. The Driving Range was set up like a ball golf driving range with signs (except the signs we're in feet and not yards) telling you of 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 foot intervals. The Driving range even had signs that said the Driving Range was for Discs and not Balls!! located in several locations at the range area. The Driving Range even had 2 cement tee pads and had benches (I've played a lot of Disc Golf courses that don't have benches).
Practice basket for regular Discs.
Plenty of parking, either across the street @ the bank or up the street by the pre school

Cons:
Though all the park was on flat ground except for the area of one of the later mini Disc Golf holes that had a little knoll that actually had a fast running water way running through the mini disc golf course. I think that it would really be cool if they added a few small hills with the baskets placed in the vicinity and and had a few more trees as obstacles through out the mini disc golf course.
some holes we're pretty close to the volleyball court and the dog park. But we're listed as O.B on the tee sign

Other Thoughts:
How many cities can you name at the top of your thoughts that can say they have a Disc golf course (Mundy Park) a mini Disc Golf course (Jones Family Bark Park) a driving range with 2 separate cement tee pads/ with benches for Disc Golf (Jones Family Bark Park) and a bird sanctuary that has bird houses for each bird listed in the Bible, with the verse listed. I can only think of 1 city and Mt. Juliet, Tn. is the place!! Granted their courses aren't championship level, but their kind hearts for their efforts outweigh the most municipalities that have Disc Golf courses (IMHO)
