Small city course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 24, 2019 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

The course offers a wide variety of throwing lines. As it plays around the outer rim of the two parks, there are numerous holes where you have very narrow shots and others where you have all the space in the world.

I like that this course is compact and does not require much effort to get from hole to hole. The next tee pad for a basket is generally less than 30-50 feet away. The ability to practice inside a low ceiling tree line directly next to an open field to practice high and wide shots makes this course my staple practice course. The baskets were strategically placed in a way that this would not be simply a putt approach course.

Cons:

Obviously being split between two parks is not ideal but they are not all that far from one another.

There isn't any concrete tee pads unfortunately.

Plays through different parts of the walking trail which is difficult when families are walking and small kids are around.

Other Thoughts:

If playing during the summer months, absolutely bring bug spray. I made that mistake the first go through and my ankles regretted it.

I spoke with a parks and rec worker today and he said that if people like the course and play it, then in the future there is the possibility of expanding it with more tee pads or possibly more baskets. So I hope this review does some good in promoting this new addition in the KC area.
