Wonderful Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 22, 2020 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Concrete tee pads with two baskets per hole Yellow being short and red being longs. Easy to navigate and follow.

Cons:

Only issue I found is the people walking on the walking path can get in the way. If its busy you might be waiting a bit before it's safe to throw.

Other Thoughts:

Amazing course to play, one my favorites to play in the area.

Challenging and Fun 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 15, 2013 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

This course has everything I look for in a course. The two baskets per hole give you the option of how difficult a round you want. I was able to shoot the yellow (easier) baskets with my wife and children and still have the option of shooting the red (more difficult) baskets with my friends who play more seriously. Almost the entire course is shaded without the trees being so low that they interfere with every shot. The course was very well maintained every time that I have played it.

The park surrounding the course is also great. Playgrounds, tennis courts, basketball courts, pavilions, walking/biking trails, baseball fields, golf driving range. The park is ideal for family get togethers. After you convince your family and friends to enjoy the park for a day just make sure you have enough discs along to convince those in your group who might be resistant to disc golf to take a short walk and give it a try.

Cons:

There was nothing missing from this course that I would have wanted.

Other Thoughts:

I am new to the sport and have only tried out a limited number of courses. However, I have no doubt that this course will continue to be one of my favorite courses to revisit regularly. I am very grateful to the people responsible for bringing such a nice course close to my home.

Beautiful Local Park, Underutilized Space, Course Designer's Dream 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 2, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

This new course is situated in what I can describe as an underutilized park in Lebanon. Many acres of thoughtfully mowed terrain with little attention focused on what could be done with the surrounding land just off of paved walking paths. This park was just yearning for local disc advocates like Mike and Charlie to rally the community and install this much needed course in the Lebanon area.

Numerous tee boxes? "No!", they said. Build this course with numerous baskets! Yes, this 18 hole course has 36 permanent baskets (2 per) colored in close caution yellow for the amateurs like myself and far fire engine red for that long driver most of us strive to be. Throughout the course I felt there was a 20 to 40 foot elevation change to work with and the holes have been placed in areas utilizing the contours of the land to its full advantage.

A real joy to play due to the fact that the park, although moderately wooded, was well mowed and hazards such as thorns and poison ivy was by far at a minimal.

The holes themselves were a nice combination of light to heavy trees and open fairway shots. Many holes had that country club feel having fairways along side one another. After a round, there are pavilions and BBQ amenities to refresh and shoot again.

Cons:

Ok, ok, I will jump on the band wagon here and say water shots would be the sweet cherry on top of this course. But, why complain about your Mustang not having a Corvette engine?

Other Thoughts:

Thank you Mike D. and Charlie G. I personally know the challenges and rewards of building a course. You two took it to a whole new level through fundraising and seeking out sponsors to really elevate the use of a 36 basket system. Great job laying out the country club feel on this course. May I suggest that the maintenance crew drop the mower deck to 'low' and sculpt out the fairways, then raise it to 'high' to sculpt out the fringes and finally allow high vegetation lines to delineate O.B. areas where fairways run parallel. Absolutely a great job on this design!

Very fun, challenging course. Good elevation changes at some holes.

No water, I love playing courses with lots of water. I guess that's what Jackson Disc Golf Course is for ha!

Really great course, adding an awesome addition to Lebanon, PA's Disc Golf Courses.
