Spearfish Canyon Disc Golf reviews

Not as great as I thought it would be 2+ years drive by

Pros:
After you get out of the valley where it starts it really gets scenic and has some nice hole layouts. The tee pads take a little getting used to since they are turf, not as good as concrete but better than no pads.
Cons:
The constant gunfire and the insanely loud UTVs that are constantly driving by really decreased the enjoyability of the course. Could have a few more amenities.
Other Thoughts:
Still worth playing but not quite the destination course I thought it might be.

Pros:
With the course map, available at the beginning of the circuit, makes navigating a breeze. With a little more time, the trails between each hole will cover when the maps are gone.
Holes 4 and 18 are the signature holes, taking you first up out of, and then later back down into, the Spearfish Creek bottom. Thankfully, the designers chose not to hang the #9 basket out over the edge of the valley.

Cons:
Hiking boots are a must, at least until the recently cut underbrush is cleared. The tee boxes are dirt, and will be a problem when wet. Distances would be helpful on a few of the holes, as the elevation change makes eyeballing tougher.
Other Thoughts:
The course is a challenge for old, fat, out-of-shape flat landers (me), but there are plenty of picnic tables, stumps and logs to catch your breath. This is definitely worth a side trip if you are in the area.
