Tall grass in fairway 2+ years drive by
Reviewed:
Played on:Jul 19, 2019
Played the course:once
Pros:
Baskets are in good condition. Next tees are clearly marked all pads are paved.
Cons:
Tall grass in fairway makes walking from tee to hole unpleasant. Fairways run parallel making throws frequently fade into the side by side fairway.
Other Thoughts:
Parking situation is confusing. Not possible to walk from the lot to tee 1 at the time of visit.

Pros:
*Nice baskets + practice for putting
*Multiple tees (although shorts are often directly in front of longs without unique looks)
*Signs with distance and for navigation
*Benches & trash cans
*Dog friendly w/poo bags.
*Disc golf specific park within a development that was never completely built out so its pretty much a DGC in the middle of an empty neighborhood plot without homes.
*Nice mix of shots and challenge for a 12 hole course
*Well groomed/maintained park space

Cons:
*Tees are gravel and boxed in/raised up which for the longer drives can be unsafe and some shorter holes had rutting/uneven ground (seems like would be a big issue after rain)
*Fairways are not all that defined on many of the holes with some crossing over and hazardous design if course was in a busy area.
*Many gaps are too tight even for gold level disc golfers there is way too much luck involved here with a select few trees/branches removed the fairways would become much more defined. It takes away from having to hit a real shot and basically throw layyups to areas vs carve up the course.
*short tees do not provide much variation
*Feels a little crammed together in spots and gets weird around 8-10 where I wasn't exactly sure how it all flowed together. Seems like some tees are shared?
*Flat no WOW factor with quite a few straight(er) shots.

Other Thoughts:
Really good local city park course which COULD be one heck of a disc golf course. I am not sure 12 holes even are needed and 9 might actually provide a superior playing experience given some moving of 2nd tees to provide unique looks. The trees in general just feel like they need some trimming/removal. The tee signs are oddly placed but well done and concrete would be a big improvement here. There is just something about this course which felt like it was missing. Hard to really put my finger on it. If I lived in the area I would play here often but have a feeling it would get boring quick. very low replay value even though it was a solid course.
