Needs work 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 22, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

The course itself is in a city park, well-kept grass, not much woods to speak of. Not much chance to lose a disc, unless you go right on holes 4 & 5, where there is a fence separating the park from private woods. Course has a good mix of holes, and offers a variety of shots to test your skills.

Cons:

Two years ago, Hole #10 was taken out, and a hole inserted on the back nine (#16?), with all the hole numbers in between shifting by one (12 is now 11, 13 is now 12, etc). When they made the change, the tee signs were NOT CHANGED. Some tee signs are broken off. This spring (2016), hole 11 was moved slightly, and hole 13 is now longer, but again, signs remain the same. A person new to this course would be confused with the layout, especially given that the course map has not been updated.

Other Thoughts:

There should be a common-sense rule in disc golf course maintenance. If you move baskets/change the layout of a course, you should install new tee signs THE SAME DAY that you move the baskets. It has been two years now, and the responsible parties have not made any changes yet.
With new accurate tee signs, this course would be a 3.5.

RPDG cut them down! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Sep 16, 2013 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This course is well layed out with some trees and rolling hills. Very good baskets and cement tees. Every hole is marked and has a hole description plaque mounted at the tee. Large overall course map located at the first tee.

Cons:

This is a very popular park and can get very crowded during the summer. Parking could also be a problem with some restrictions on disc golf players. There seems to be some weird OB designations on this course, don't make sense.

Other Thoughts:

Many changes on this course. Many of the trees have been cut down exposing several baskets. A lot of the hole markers have been damaged. Several dholes have been changed because of construction or other events. The Trees along the creek are being cut down making challenging holes easy. Hopefully things will improve but the old large trees can never be replaced.
