Somebody please polish this turd! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 21, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

Concrete tee pads. Baskets catch well despite having single-layer chains.

Cons:

You know that shot where you throw a spike-hyzer on a 90 degree angle with your flippiest disc hoping to get it to flat and glide for a bit? I didn't either until I stepped up to hole 1 here. I had to use that shot twice today.

You'll spend twice as long as necessary playing this course because you have to scout every hole. I saw exactly 1 basket from the tee.

There appears to have been no maintenance done to this course in the past few years. Nor any disc golf activity as far as I can tell, the undergrowth is not trampled down at all and is prevalent. Not only can you gash yourself with some thorny bushes, you can then inject poison ivy directly into the open wound. Luckily it was chilly this morning and I was still wearing pants.

There (probably) used to be tee signs here. All that remain now are wooden posts with bleached-out paper on them. The only benefit was that those helped me find the tee pads in the underbrush.


Navigation is not entirely intuitive, and there is no map anywhere to be found.

Other Thoughts:

Bag this if you must, but I'd recommend against it. Even if you're already in the park playing the Reservoir course. Save yourself the frustration.

Note: after hole 7, cross the bridge behind and right of the basket and walk past the first tee pad you find. This is for hole 9. 8 is to the left. I played 8 from 9's tee pad. Honestly, I thought it was a better hole.

All Risk, No Reward 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 20, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Great baskets, didn't even know that they were homemade at first.
- Good, well sized teepads.

Cons:

- FULL of poison ivy.
- Way to many trees in the fairways. Rather than being beautifully and strategically placed in the fairway, it seems like the designer just cleared out the underbrush and didn't cut out any trees. On one of the holes we actually drove to the wrong hole because of such a lack of a fairway. On several of the holes it felt just like you had to throw and hope it didn't hit a tree rather than choosing a line and trying to make a good throw.
- Lack of signage made it difficult to know where to play for the first time on the course.
- Very unbalanced risk / reward. It felt like this course was all risk with no chance for reward, no matter how you played it.

Other Thoughts:

With some maintenance and thoughtful tree removal, this could be a decent nine hole course. However, as it is now, this course is very problematic and not a terribly fun course to play. If you're in Upper Sandusky I would recommend that you play the reservoir course instead.

technical wooded course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 9, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

very fun technical course, most holes arent too long but require a lot of finesse. there are a few birdieable holes and even a few that could be aced. this course is still under construction but with a little time and effort it could be an excellent course.

Cons:

Parking lot to tee 1 is kind of a long walk
heavy woods and alot of brush
low spots that collect water
mosquitos!!!!!!!!!!!!

Other Thoughts:

played this course only once so far but i plan to get back to get this one in. When i played it, I had went to upper for there sunday league and the original course was flooded so league was moved to mossy oaks. Since the original course was flooded, this course was soaking wet with a good amount of standing water but we managed. At the time most of the tees were framed and ready to be poured, i would imagine by now they likely have cement tees. Also i hear that there is serious consideration to making this a full 18. I'll definatly be back to get my butt kicked by this course again
