Reviewed: Played on:Feb 21, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

Located just west of Rochester, NY. Most holes play in the woods. A nice course that is still rough around the edges. Great location for a course except one hole plays near a little league field. (This may have changed) Most holes play short but ae not easy.

soo many trees! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Nov 27, 2009 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Lots of challenging holes, interesting maditories on 2 holes one is a changing maditory. course is a nice finess course for experienced players.
Course utilizes multiple tee pads and basket positions to change slightly through out the season to prevent monotony. course has little to no outside traffic. course flows well with some signage directing you to the next tee. some holes have tee signs.
*update: bathrooms facility added (not always open)
practice tee for warming up.

Cons:

Hole 1 has been moved and is not only hard to find, but it is a horrible hole (over 40 courses played and I still think this is the worst hole ever 2.5 years later). it is a pointless disc eater that my friends refuse to play, instead they throw for 18 to the 19 practice basket to get a full 18 holes

The heavily wooded nature of this course makes it less beginner friendly. Sweden is not the course to introduce players to the sport.
There is a decent chance of disc loss in the foliage so leave your green discs at home.

Other Thoughts:

the course changes frequently so know where the baskets are before you toss.
*update: hole 10 has chanded to a straight shot with OB on the road.
Hole 1 starts up by the skate park.

If you only have time to play 1/2 choose the back 9.

Still Under Construction 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 22, 2007 Played the course:never

Pros:

The course is very easy to navigate, signs do well to lead you from one hole to the next. Like a well groomed nature trail through the woods. Nice snack bar at the practice basket.

Cons:

The course was not complete yet when I played it. Baskets 1 and 9 were not there yet, and there were only plans for tee markers. I'm sure these temporary issues will soon be fixed, but as I tell my students, "I can't grade based on potential."
In addition: you need some math to figure out the distance of each hole from what is marked on the signs. The front nine is totally separated from the back nine. The small pond in the course is just for show and really doesn't come into play; it would be neat if it did.

Other Thoughts:

This has the potential to be a good course, but when I played it was only passable. I'm sure it is progressing as I type this, but even so I cannot see it ever matching Chestnut Ridge as far as shorter woods courses around here go.
