Open Hillside Park

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jan 30, 2023 Played the course:once

Other Thoughts:

~ Lynn Sheaffer Dum Memorial Park is a new hillside park that's still mostly open fields, but has plans to add recreational activities, an amphitheater and other amenities. But for now, it's a memorial spot and a playground. The 9 hole layout plays around the edges of the property: down the long hillside, across the back, and back up the other side


~ The course didn't yet have signage in early 2023, but there are poured tees and DisCatcher baskets. Use uDisc to navigate from basket to the next unmarked tee.


~ It's wide open, with a treeline along the left side of the first three holes. The treeline could come into play for righties, because these holes are dramatically downhill, and fade can bring you into the woods


~ It's easy to mistake basket #5 for basket #3 - 5 is straight ahead, while 3 is hidden in the treeline on the left


~ The backside of the park is mostly wild straw-like grass, and I don't know if they have plans for regular mowing to create fairways on #4 - #6, or even just create the height down. If not, you're looking at possibility of losing discs in the middle of a field


~ Quick bagging round, fun to watch discs fly downhill, but not much here


~ Course is "very" cart-friendly if you don't mind hills
