Other Thoughts:
Spring Park DGC is located in Spring Park, just outside Osage, IA. Originally 18 holes, been cut down to 9. (I think the other 9 baskets went to Watertower Park on the NW corner of town.) The homemade baskets are interesting with the hole number in metal on top, but they need some TLC to fix the chains on several (probably only a day's project). Play is flat with a few trees and most of these are short. More of a "pitch and putt" course. The park seems nice and the play is away from most of the other activities. The road could come into play on a couple of holes (left of 4, behind 5, 6, 7, 8). No chances for bombers here. Cool spring gives the park its name (just a bit north of the #5 basket.) Concrete pads, better tee signs, fix up the baskets would add to the rating here. Although a quick play, I still had fun playing the course. I would play again if in the area.
