Ample parking in the church parking lot
Has some really fun throws including hole 1 nice downhill elevation shot
Good mix of hole distances...this isn't a pitch and putt will allow you to throw distance drivers. Mostly open but trees will come into play on some holes
Tee signs are very helpful and nice plays away from the actual buildings which is nice,
Right next to the horse stable...you can see a horse while throwing your drive on 7
Baskets are in good shape with blue bands making them easy to spot

I'm sure the grass becomes to tall if not mowed
Tee pads aren't super marked out...natural pads
Hole 3 and 5 have pretty hard lines I'm guessing when not super over grown they're not that bad. Cross the road to get to last 3 holes

A great place to try out some new drivers and warm up not a bad church course by any means

Once you find this course it starts off with some good design. I like the downhill open fairway between the two large trees. The holes stay pretty good for a 9 hole course (with one obvious exception).

The tee's were good, the signs were really good, the length of the holes is a nice variety for a 9 hole course, the baskets are great quality disCatchers I'm pretty sure (I don't remember that much). I like the open holes to technical holes to open holes layout. I like how it's secluded and away from the main property (though there's apparently a large animal vet next to the course so you may see some horses).

But. All that to say- it was a frustrating round. I'm trying not to rate the course based on it's conditions the day I played it, and I don't think I am, but I am going to mention in my review that this course has been neglected at least for a few months.

The grass is TALL and THICK. It is easy to lose a disc if you don't watch very closely where it lands.

The worst part of this course for me though was hole 3. It is shaped like a fishook, and it's only 230' long. There's no way get a disc to fly like that because boomerangs aren't allowed in this sport, and there's no way you're throwing a roller because the grass is shin to knee high. That shape is in general my least favorite shape of disc golf hole, especially at short distance.

The distances when I used this app were off by hundreds of feet every hole. I wrote down the actual distances on the tee signs, and I should have it updated by the time you play this course.

This and Prince Solms Park in New Braunfels were the same for me as far as my enjoyment. Overall I would only say this course is better, and a lot safer. However, in the "if I had to play one course tomorrow and only one" game, I would probably play Prince Solms for being almost as good in hole design, worse baskets, but it's mowed and I can just avoid the people.

I'd still recommend playing this course, but I don't know if I'd tell you you're going to love it

EDIT: I just went back and looked at old reviews to see how my impressions compared to others, and I'll just say it really pays to sort by Trusted Reviewer

Maintenance was better than expected
Short and long tee shots made it a challenge for all skill levels
Even the short tee shots are made difficult due to trees and basket placement
The signs on each tee are helpful to find the next box.

Dirt tee box
Only 9 holes

Between the signs on each tee and the UDisc app I was able to get thru this course 1st time without getting lost. Fun short course that I will be going back to.

Never slow play.
Variety of shots.
3 decently long holes.
Never unplayable after rains.
Wind changes decisions.
Easy to play 9 holes.

Maintenance is non existent (other than mowing).
Tees can be dangerous (rocky or too slippery)
Holes not clearly marked
No map
3 blind holes (3,4,5)

This course is good for a beginner who doesn't want to jump right in at McLain or Live Oak until he has some more experience.
It also serves as a great driving range or practice area.
Lots of open space between 1,2 and 9.
You need to know how to throw either a turnover or a forehand to birdie all these holes.

The course has nice discatcher baskets.
The tees are marked with each hole.
Various shots required.
They did their best with what they had.

The course is hard to follow if playing for the first time or by yourself.
No trash can on the course.
Found myself wondering around trying to find the next tee.
Course could stand to have a work day done.

Overall the course was ok, nothing great. If your near by and need a quick round then I would recommend it, but seems to be better course close by.

This course provides both technical and "driving range" type throws. It gives the player a chance to test accuracy and distance all in one round.
Course was mowed and very well taken care of.

Baskets #3 and #4 are your most technical throws. You must navigate your way threw many trees, so disc selection is vital.
Once, you've gotten threw #5 you can enjoy some long distance throws and test your arm.

The only con i can come up with for this course is that it is not a popular course for experienced players. Most experienced players could birdie their way through this course with some ace runs in-between. but for the average and novice disc golfer, this is a VERY fun course.

Overall great experience, I hope the Rivercity Community Church can keep up with the landscaping at this course so that it can be an all year round place to play!

The River City Community Church DGC in Selma, TX welcomes players to come and play it's course. Park by the stalls of the neighboring vetrinarian hospital where you'll probably see some horses caged up.

The course starts down the hill to the left here. There are small yellow posts standing 6" high with the hole number on top. There is also a front board painted yellow which reads River City Community Church. These will prove extremely difficult to locate in the following holes. Hole # 1 is a 175' sharp anhyzer to a blind basket. The baskets are, maybe Discatchers with the yellow band, but instead of saying Discatcher, it says River City Community Church on one side and A Church For Real Life on the other side.
The pads are natural. You just throw behind the little yellow board. # 2's pad was difficult to find but I finally located it. The basket is just 138' ahead. # 3 is 410'. I never found the sign or board, did found the basket and it has the number on it as well.
The # 4 basket is tucked deep back into the jungle. I found the # 5 basket but never spotted the pad. # 6 was the long 410' hole going to the basket near the entry road. I never located that pad either.
Now you cross over the entry road and play the more open holes. # 7 is 240' with a couple of large trees in the path providing challenge. # 8 is a 300 footer playing up to the building ahead. And then # 9 plays a slight downhill, 436' to the basket next to the entry road. Cross the road again to get to the # 10 tee pad. It give you two options around a large tree, neither of which is that easy. The basket is close to where your car is parked.

Although the fairways are mowed in the first five jungle holes, the tee box areas are terribly overgrown making navigation frustrating and time consuming. This is such a major flaw in course right now. It pretty much spoils the experience.

If the earlier part of the course was cleaned up, this would be so much more enjoyable. The design is really well done for the audience they were targeting, that is, the very casual, occasional player.

Although for me, putting at baskets which read, "A Church For Real Life" is a little like being ministered to and totally threw off my already mediocre putting game. I'm better when the baskets are plastered with stickers for Innova or Beer ads or even autographed by clowns who were proud of their 158 foot ACES!

I appreciate how many churches are starting to add courses for their youth to learn the game on. I really liked the DISCatcher baskets. I also like how they really make use of all the land and elevation that they have. In the field by hole 6's basket I appreciated how they didn't just put a bunch of baskets out there. The course offers some challenge on 4 and 5 because it becomes very tight. After, hole 6 you cross the street and play 7-9 where it opens up and what I think are the better holes.

I would of liked to see tee signs/pads. The pads weren't too rough but they always can. Also, tee signs are nice when they present an accurate map of each hole. Because as noted in someone else's review, it is easy to get confused on which basket to throw to. especially number 1. On hole 10 specifically I noticed quite a bit of poison ivy. There were numerous patches on that section of the course(1-5,10).

This course offered nothing special but I did really enjoy 7-9.

Pros - There is a nice variety of holes in this 10 hole course. 1 and 2 are short technical shots to grab a quick couple of birdies. But late in the course (holes 6,8,9) are wide open shots to test your drivers. The course is compact and quick. You can play 2 rounds (20 holes) in less time than 18 at some of the other courses in the area. There's nice use of elevation as well.

Tee signs are badly needed. From the first tee box you look down the hill at a basket but it's not the right basket. Basket 1 is tucked off to the right. If you have a guide that knows the course you'll be fine but signage is really needed. A couple of holes (4,5, maybe 3) need a clearer fairway. And, of course, it's 10 holes? Not 9. That being said I don't see a hole that needs to be removed.

Teepads are dirt and uneven. Not good but not bad. There is sometimes a strong horse poo smell on the first half of the course. It's not consistently bad, but worth noting. Just understand that the course is still a work in progress and any criticism should be as constructive as possible to help shape the course into an awesome place to play.
