If you like long holes then you're in luck!! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 7, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is well maintained and it has good signage. The tee pads are excellent and the baskets are painted yellow which make them easier to spot.
The wooded holes 4-8 were great and hole 7 was my favorite. You throw slightly uphill for a third of the hole then you must make a 90 degree turn to the right to a tunnel shot to get to the basket...sweet.
This course uses elevation well and all shots are represented from dog leg left/right, uphill/downhill wooded/open etc.
Has tall grass rough on a few holes as well as water threat on a few holes too.
Directional arrows to keep you pointed in the right direction.

Cons:

The walk between some holes were longer than some of the holes themselves.(see the the transition from 12's basket to 13's tee) This will slow the flow of the round down a bit.
Holes 10,11, and 15 were very long and some players won't dig this.
The wind will factor in on the open holes and this is especially true on 10, 11, 15 and 16.
You have to cross some roads on this course to get to the next hole, so watch out for cars.
The draw that you cross to get to 4's tee could be wet at times.

Other Thoughts:

This is a solid course and a good test of your short game on the wooded holes and your cannon on the long and open holes. My main beef is the walk between the holes themselves. With the course being 8200+ feet long you are getting in plenty of walking as it is. I like a long hole here or there but when they are back to back and then you have to walk 500+ feet to get to the next tee it just got old after a while. In my opinion this knocks this course down a bit. Again I wished I could give this course a 3.75 because its a bit better than a 3.5. I just can't give it a 4.0 because of the distance between holes, and personally I would like to see more wooded holes on Woodhenge.
Now don't let that keep you from playing this course. It is a good course. Just be prepared to get in your mileage on this course.
If you like to grip and rip then this course will be to your liking. As I said in my Beaver Creek and Black Thron reviews this disc golf complex is well worth the visit and the $5 entry fee. Load up the car and bring your friends and plan on spending the day playing disc golf in this 3 course complex. There is a bit of everything out here for every disc golfer.
