Pros:

This course has a very unique layout in that it incorporates just about every kind of shot. There are some very short technical holes, some open short holes, long open holes and semil-lenghty wooded holes. Holes 1-10 is one of the most fun stretches of holes I've ever played.
When the course is cut and maintained it has the potential to be one of the greats in Alabama.
You can drink alcohol on this course. It is dog friendly.
It isn't pay to play.

Cons:

It has been a very difficult process with the City of Tuscaloosa PARA department, to get them to cut and maintain the course. SO for long periods of time the course becomes highly unplayable with very tall grass and brush.
With the back 9 being majority open, it can get a little toasty in the summer time with no benches or break from the shade.
Don't throw your disc into the thick stuff off the fairway or you won't find it.

Other Thoughts:

It would help out tremendously if people from the community and other out of town disc golfers could come play the course and then complain as to some of the conditions. I know that's asking alot but as of right now that is the only thing that is going to help. Chances are this turns into a seasonal course between late Oct-Early March. It's a shame bc it really is a beautiful and fun course when taken care of.
