good for practice and new people like me 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 18, 2020 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Good open areas with minimal chance to lose a disc.

Cons:

Most rounds are windy. Hole 3 can land inside a fenced area. But beside the basket you'll see a opening in the fence that can be a pain to get through

Other Thoughts:

It's a good local course to get a good warm up in

Clean and simple 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 24, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

-well maintained, short green grass and no trash
-nice concrete tee pads
-great course map at parking lot
-signs with hole number and distance at each tee pad
-easy to navigate- never had to refer to course map
-fairly short distances, nice for beginners
-nice rock/pebble greens at the base of the baskets

Cons:

-no elevation change
-only felt like hole 8 was set up for the rh forehand.. rest were backhand friendly
-no signature hole or anything too exciting

Other Thoughts:

Roy Morse is a nice, clean beginner friendly course. My wife and I made it around in about 30 minutes. The baskets are well placed adding some challenge and turning what could be a very boring course into fine round of 9.
One note is to be careful in times of rain on hole 7- it looks innocent from the tee pad, but there may be a hidden pond in the fairway which is sure to nab your unsuspecting disc.
Baseball fields and toys across the parking lot.
If you're in the area, it's fun to play!

Pros:

Well marked

Crosses several paths. I could imagine it being inconvenient if there were a lot of people in the park.

Sweet Rec Course With Country Club Feel! 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 23, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

The little nine hole course in Ray Morse Park is set in an area of the park with lovely green grass, some scattered mature trees, a little roll to the terrain, some water during the wet season and the aura of a groomed country club. It's a recreational course in difficulty but with very nice amenities. The park has ample parking and restrooms. There is a course sign at the beginning.
The tee signs are small, simple one giving you the basic information, hole #, par and distance. The concrete tee pads are just a bit small but a longer run-up isn't needed on most of these holes. The tee pads have beauty bark around them. The baskets are new DGA models with the red number on top, Hole lengths range from 206' to # 3's 345'.
Most baskets are stuck behind a tree or two whenever possible. # 5 was a pretty hole, 222', with the perched between two trees. # 7 is probably the signature hole n this course. It's 250' down a semi-narrow, natural, rolling fairway. During the rainy season, you would also have to contend with a small lake just before the basket adding to he challenge. It's just a pretty little disc golf hole.
I also liked # 8 with it's two possible routes to the basket.

Cons:

Recreational length and difficulty.
Only 9 holes.

Other Thoughts:

This is just a lovely little nine hole course. No, it's not going to challenge many players. There no place for 400 foot drives. That's not what this course is about. This course was designed for rec players. It's a well designed and extremely pretty little course. Enjoy it and thank you, Longview Parks and Recreation Department for your contribution to Washington's Disc Golf Community!

Great option in Longview area 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 23, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

If you are looking for somewhere to throw a quick 9 that has an obstacle on every hole, this is it. I like it! It plays quick and has a nice flow. Sure, it is a short course and with no leaves in the winter you can see the entire layout but when you see what they had to work with you will see that they used every inch possible without taking up too much park space.

They did a nice job incoporating almost every tree into the course. I have now played this in late spring and I like this course more. These are mature trees to so it is not like you can just throw over them. The entire course really just meanders through the trees located near the edge and is out of the way from the main part of the park.

I like how they incorporated the seasonal water into play. There are definitely a few no risk no reward holes. During dry spells there is no water which makes for a different experience.

Baskets are great and catch the putter nicely!!!!!!

#1 and #9 are next to each other and next to parking lot.

Everything is clearly marked and there is a large course map near the first tee. Drive to the back of the parking lot and you can't miss it.

Well maintained!!! Someone is making sure the tee boxes are kept free of the bark dust and debris. I hope this keeps up because the course looked great.

Cons:

Soggy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A few days of rain and this place will be a wet mess.

Short tee boxes.

#3 has a basket by the park buidlings. A bad throw and you are over the fence.

Honestly, the only real con is how wet the ground gets.
