Pros:
Well, there is suppose to be a map at hole 1
Posts mark tees with hole number and distance listed.

Cons:
Hole 1 basket and practice basket are missing
Grass tee pads (not a lot of play here so they are still grass)
most of the course is wide open, and I mean wide open.

Other Thoughts:
It is not good when you read the "course conditions" and it says baskets 1 to 4 are missing, play the spring layout.
So after starting on hole 5 spring layout, you look over and see basket 4 in the fall placement. So I walked over there and could see 3 basket, then 2 basket. So I went over to play hole 1 and no basket.
Hole 1 is a short little hyzer with a few trees blocking a direct line, but no basket so I played the last tree. Then the rest of the course was in the Fall layout. I walked back across the parking lot (much farther than hole 1's distance) and threw a simple open field shot to a basket in a tree line. Not much to the hole.
Hole #3F is a shorter hole along that tree line, the trees are pretty big, but it is just a little low hyzer.
Hole #4F is almost the exact same shot as 3, but longer.
The a long walk over to hole #5F that throws along the park boarder/road/fence to the basket. Not really any tree's to get in your way. A few bushes I guess you could get stuck behind, but not any real challenge to this 400+ft hole.
#6F post is missing, but you basicly throw from teh edge of the park down 450ft across a small dent, so there is a little elevation. Just not a single tree comes into play.
#7F is a shorter slightly downhill shot with not a tree in sight.
#8F is actually the best hole on the course 400ft shot across from one slight hill to the next with a bush blocking your view of the basket from the tee. But this bush and about 4 others are the ONLY things in this section of the park in the way.
#9 throws back up the slight hill with the parking lot on your right. Unfortunately, I parked in that corner spot and almost hit my Flex with my drive that turned over. Not a tree in sight on this hole either.
Now I was at my car, if I had parked by hole 1, I would have to walk all the way across the park back to my car. I do not like that.
other notes, this was a popular park for other park users. There were very few parking spots along the road. Plenty of parking at hole #1 though.
Would I play here again?
Hell no, this is a wasted space for baskets. There is nothing really to work with in this park. If you really wanted to put in a course here, make it a bunch of 200 ft shots starting from the playground area and make it a family friendly course. 400ft holes, even though they are wide open, are not family friendly.
Have a fund raiser and plant some trees, you could "build" a good rec course here if you wanted, but right now it is a horrible course.
