Better Than Going to School I Guess 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 10, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

If I were a HS student I would be tearing this course up non-stop. There are perfectly functional Discatchers. There's a big creek that isn't really in play but hey, nature and stuff. It's probably well-mowed.

Some of the holes are funky but fun. The hole around the baseball field is a nice dogleg par 4 (minus the whole, playing around the ballfield part). Hole 9 plays around a tennis court and through a picnic table area (awesome!). I think there's one hole that has trees and doesn't play around some other equipment or building AND is over 200' long!

If you get bored playing disc golf (possible I guess) you could hit the punching bag thing that is right next to hole 3 or 4's basket. Also plenty of tennis balls to harvest for Fido.

There's a portajohn.

Cons:

Tees are nebulous places on the ground next to the tee sign. Maybe the tee sign is actually in the ground, maybe it's leaning next to a building. You could move the tee sign where ever you want and nobody would probably be the wiser, really.

This course is essentially 9 holes crammed around an athletic complex. Ball fields, soccer goals, etc. Is it weird to throw discs around a high school's practice fields? Yes. Will you do it because it's disc golf and you have no shame? Also yes.

Other Thoughts:

Like the rest of the 9 holers in this area, just about every hole is a deuce or die. One unique aspect of Mt. Airy High is that it is really flat despite being in a fairly hilly area.

This is not a good course by any means. But, it's so goofy that it's kind of fun. At the very least, it's a good place to practice ace runs.
