Landings Park Disc Golf Course Has Crashed Landings! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 11, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

The little three basket disc golf course at Landings Park is apparently the twin brother of the three hole course at neighboring Blue Grass-Kawanis Park DGC. They both have but three baskets and they are the homely, green, single chain homemade jobs. The grass here is a deep green color and very lush. The baskets are almost the exact same shade and are most difficult to spot, even from 225' away.

This fair sized neighborhood park has, the beside the lovely expanse of green grass, a picnic shelter, tennis courts, a playground and a walking path which circles the park. The park is flat with few trees. None of the the golf holes involved the trees.

The course is set up so there are three baskets and three hole signs. Each sign shows three tee areas. The tee areas are just grass with a front board. Hole 1 has A-B-C positions listed at 235', 191' and 158'. # 2's A, B and C's distances are 218', 195' and 165. Tee sign # 3 shows lengths of 190', 150' and 120'. So I guess you could call this a 9 hole course if you played the circuit three times around. If you played it six times, would that make it an 18 hole course? Or would it make you an idiot?

Cons:

The ugly, green # 3 basket is set about a foot too low. It was already ugly, now it's ugly and short. Poor guy will never get a girl.

Three ugly baskets.

No tee pads.

No challenge.

No trees.

No elevation.

Other Thoughts:

I don't see anyone but maybe a couple of neighborhood kids playing this course. Oh yeah, and the occasional course bagger. I guess it's nice that some developer recognizes the value of installing a disc course in his neighborhood parks but it's kind of a shame that he cuts corners with the baskets. They're a turn-off by themselves. Then you add the rec distances and total lack of challenge and that spells.......a 1.0 rated course!
