Other Thoughts:

Oh man. First off, let me point out this is a own of 138 people in the last census.
Second, the baseball field takes up more than 50% of the park.
But the City wanted a 9 hole disc golf course to try to get people out and about.

SO, the old school has 4 holes on its grounds. All 4 are almost totally wide open with varying lengths.

Hole 5 is back across the street from hole 1 and tees off behind the backstop. You throw down the left field fence to a basket between the pitching/batting cage and the fence.

Then you have hole 6. I was lost for a second till I noticed the tee sign located on the top of the fence. You walk though the gate to the ball field and throw across 2nd base to the basket on the Right Field fence line. I mean right on top of the fence. The road is the only OB, but you could have some fun walking back and forth if you miss your putt. On the other hand, run your upshot or layup at the fence for the easy putt.

Hole 7 is the "best" hole on the course, Under 300ft, but you have a row of large trees on the right and the outfield fence on your left.

Then there is hole 8. You have to see the picture here. The guy and his kids were playing on the tire swing when I walked up. Before I could say anything, he waved at me and said they would get out of my way. Yep, the fairway goes though playground equipment, then over a cement area that has basket ball goals and could be a tennis court.

Walk back across the court to throw hole 9 crossing 8's fairway, They took out the chain link fence but the polls are still there along with the basket ball hoops. Your shot goes across the dirt road and the basket is hiding behind one of the large tree's.

Ok, lets talk about the restrooms. Located near hole 6 and 9, it has both Men's and Women's. The Women's restroom door was propped open, I could see a nice bench in there and it had an AC unit in the window. The mens on the other hand was NOT clean, I attempted to use the urinal. Was looking at the pipe and noticed it didn't have a way to flush it, but then I heard water trickling. I looked down and the piping was not connected very well and I was basically peeing on my shoes. I guess it's funny now, but I was not happy at the time.

would I play here again? Nope. It's a one and done course. Just a number. I hope it gets someone into disc golf locally at least.

If you do stop to play here, use the toilet and not the urinal and you will be fine.
