Pretty, pretty decent

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 9, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

This is a fairly open park-style course with respectable distance and plenty of hills. About half of the holes require you to shape a line or hit a gap, but none of the holes are truly wooded. On the more open parts of the course elevation adds a modicum of challenge and exercise.

This is a pretty, well-tended park. I had the course to myself on a weekday, but lots of people were out walking themselves or their dogs. Paths and disc golf are generally well separated but I did wait once for a pedestrian.

Yellow-banded baskets were easy to spot, mounted level, and caught well. Turf teepads were nicely leveled, if a little on the small side. Practice basket and port-a-pot near the parking lot, and a trashcan and bench near the first tee.

Short walks between holes (but see cons).

Cons:

The main con is the lack of tee signs. The hole # is spray painted on the grass next to each tee, and a "next tee" arrow is spray-painted on the grass next to many of the baskets. Obviously spray paint is not a long-term solution, but this is a new course so signage may be on the way.

Holes average around 325' and the shorter holes play uphill so their effective distance is similar. This lack of distance variation detracted from my enjoyment of the course.

With a pond on the left and rough on the right, the first hole has a non-trivial risk of disc loss. Otherwise rough is rough but generally avoidable.

Long walk back to the parking lot after playing hole 9.

Other Thoughts:

I enjoyed playing here even though the course was more open than I prefer.

If you can throw 350' or more birdie will be in play on most holes. In contrast, at my ever-decreasing distance I played most holes as follows: drive – short approach – tap-in. I think I was on hole 5 before I actually had to putt, and that was because of a bad approach. Better distance variation would better suit a wider variety of players.
