Sometimes you can tell the rating of a course by the company it keeps . Wabash City Park 18 hole course is enjoyed by all strengths of players . Getting to the course and hole one is a little different than from the directions . After making the first right after entering the park , stay left ( I stayed right and drove myself right out of the park ) . There will be a shelter on your right as you descend . You cross a small bridge and park on the left . There is a kiosk close by hole #1 but no map in it . You need a map for this one . There is a putting basket close to the lot . Bathrooms are close by , too . The tee pads are cement 4' by 8' sized . The signage is good , telling hole# , par , distance to each pin and a flight path . It also tells which position the pin is in . I don't know for sure how many pin positions there are ( 2 ? ) , but don't pay a lot of attention to the distances on the Wabash scorecard . The baskets are Red Dynamic Veterans , and most have flags on the top . The park was clean and mowed when I was there . There are nice shelters with grills near holes 1 and the #2 tee . benches and garbage cans are present .
#1 which is a partially obstructed fairway and #2 where you tee of from an elevated tee pad next to the bridge , will make you think that this course is going to be all park style and a little uneventful ( on the scorecard , #2 says 165' but more like 300 ), but it takes an interesting turn . #3 tee is a walk up the road hill and left . The course will then dart and out of woods , mixing in shorter more technical but reachable holes . I won't go hole by hole , but give you some highlights .
#3 a short left to right hole into some woods , to an elevated basket on a stump . #7 is a shorter park style hole around a few trees in the fairway , to a hanging basket . There is a hole (12 or 13 ? ) that is a tight woods fairway shot , with a gully at the end and the basket on the hill . #17 is a long 400' uphill drive with road and trees on the right that plays more like 450-500' . #18 is a great finishing hole . It is back downhill , forcing a slight right turn to a hanging basket flanked by 2 trees . maybe 350' + . Picturesque . My signature hole : #14 . A tee pad on a hill down to flat land , trees with canopies forcing a low shot . Your drive eventually has to follow the creek to your left where the basket was tucked in between large bushes and had the creek directly behind it .
This course might empty your bag . A nice variety of shots , right and left . some elevation for several of the holes . Fun factor here was very high . I saw some high level foursomes and even a couple of families playing . It took me a little over an hour to play , guessing maybe 2 1/2 for a foursome .

#1 safety . 1 throws over what looks like a horseshoe pit , there are people that enjoy the park that can appear in blind spots , Be careful and share the park .
#2 Navigation . The course goes uphill after #2 , can cross roads and the next tees can reappear behind bushes . I had to revert to my map several times , especially on the back 9 . Your Kiosk needs a map . Print your own before playing .
#3 An incredible walk back to the parking lot from 18 . I had to walk all the way back up the hill towards #18 tee , then 1/4 mile with steps on the left back to the lot .
#4 Challenge . Some good players will be way under par for at least part of the course , which only means that the course wasn't designed for tournaments .
Disc Risk : there is a creek you can plunk into , and the brush and large trees with canopies and blind shots can pose a risk . Especially around holes 8-14 . bring bug spray in the summer .

Someone in the Wabash area decided to put a 18 hole disc golf course in the town park , ,,,,,, And succeeded . I don't know what the early renditions were , but at some time , some of the holes were lengthened to appease the more seasoned players , and still be attractive to the city locals . I heard that the city tries to update the course every couple of years since it's inception ( 2010 ) , but I say leave it the way it is . The 25+ people that were playing after I was leaving weren't proving me wrong . There is too much fun too leave this course unplayed . Stay and eat in one of the shelters before you leave if you have time ( and food ) .
My recommendation : Pros and great ams aren't coming here unless they live in the city . This course is still great for locals , ( a little hard on families ) some newbies , travelers , the course collectors ( combine with Mississenewa ,Maconaquah and Honey Bear Hollow ) , Play and Enjoy It !!!

Concrete teepads
Veteran baskets
Easy flow to the course (made easier with great signage)

Not a lot of length

Solid course overall. Course is great for the land that is available. The course by itself I would say is a 2.5, but the amenities (baskets, tees, etc.) bump it up in my opinion to a 3.

Can really tell the disc golf community in wabash has put in a lot of hours to make it the best possible course it can be.

New layout! New DD Veteran baskets!

Shot Selection-need Backhand and Forehand, possible Tomahawk or two.

Dual Basket positions.

Elevation changes, with a few Drives off of elevated-style Tees.

Mix of open and wooded Holes, nice to play on a hot, sunny day, good tree cover.

Although mostly on the shorter side of distance, got some tougher Pin positions, guarded, on a number of Holes. There are opportunities to drive for distance now though-not all duece's on this one.

Some Baskets on small mounds, #18 embedded into a good size rock-uniqueness.

Portion plays alongside train tracks, three trains went by during my Round, blasting their horns-pretty cool.

Benches all throughout, lots of large trash cans.

Nice small town Park, creek running through it.

With the new layout, there aren't any permanent Tee signs. The temp signage being used is fading bad, some signs unreadable. The signage prior was great, expecting something similar moving forward, not going to knock the Course for it at this time.

#1 plays directly over a Horseshoes court, not sure if it gets any usage.

Almost every Hole had cement Tee pads, 3 or 4 without currently. Pads from the old layout still in place in spots.

Don't know if I played the 'official' #10 hole, there was some confusion with signage. After wandering aimlessly looking for the Tee (per signage) I played what I thought might be the proper hole. Teed off just past #9, in the woods across a road to a random Basket on the top of a hill, with the #11 Tee pad just a short walk away.

Still a long walk back to the parking lot from #18.

I really enjoyed this Course, taking it for what it is-a small town Park in the middle of Indiana.

It had more going on than most similar type of Courses, with the elevation changes, and decisions on how Holes were laid out. Great starter-to-intermediate level Course.

Really liked #4, #8, #9, #10 (at least the one I created?), #14. Tunnels through wooded lanes, top of the World type of shot on #14-sweet shots.

Course was fully mowed, and the wooded Holes were all in good shape, no real problem with overgrowth.

This area is Disc Golf-rich, with Peru, Logansport, and a bit north, Akron, all having fantastic Courses to play!

*Now features multiple Basket locations, with indicators on the newly installed Tee signs, cement on every Tee pad*

Very Scenic Course - Hills, Rocky Cliffs, Woods, views of farmland. It is very peaceful here, even when there are baseball games.

Baskets - Spiderweb 3 baskets are very grippy. Some of the baskets on the course are not the same as others through.

Concrete Tees - Large concrete tees on each hole. Only one tee per hole.

Signs - There is a very detailed sign for each hole that lists the distance, par, and has a somewhat accurate picture of the hole.

Elevation - Lots of elevation change, even on the shortest hole here. Hole 12 is an immediate drop off.

Variety - Short and technical, long and open, hills, woods, creek hazard (1, 12, 13, 18).

Most holes require accurate drives and approaches while very few are open bomb holes.

Most of the course is simple to navigate. Typically you follow the path (dirt or paved) with the exception of a few holes.

Very short holes would be challenging enough for beginners and would greatly help intermediate players with accuracy. Most of this course would be an ace run for intermediate and advanced players.

Not many courses that are nearby so this course fills the gap.

Tees - Only 1 per hole. An alternate tee for each hole would make this course much more challenging. The shortest holes need a longer tee. Most holes just need an alternate angle for the hole.

Baskets - Not all baskets are the same and some are facing the wrong direction.

Hole 9 and 11. It is very easy to throw to the basket of hole 11 from tee for 9. A sign pointing to the correct basket would be helpful.

Some tees are close to the basket / fairway of previous hole (7 and 8. 11 and 12)

Very short holes could be boring for seasoned players but they require a tight, accurate throw.

At times, course can be confusing to find the next tee. Course needs signs pointing to the next tee for most holes. Hole 12 to 13 needs one. Hole 17 to 18 needs one.

Basket for 18 is not near the parking lot. Requires either a hike up a steep hill and through the park or cross the creek and walk along baseball fields.

No course map at start of course.

This course is on the way to my lakehouse and I play it at least once a year. It is in a very peaceful city park even though the park is multi-use.

The holes here are very unique and any disc golfer would appreciate the challenge it brings. I would recommend this course to any disc golfer. People who drive out of their way to play it will not be disappointed.

If you want more challenge, go to Mississinewa State Park or Pieradice in Peru.

If the course had next hole signs, alternate tees (longer), a course map, and yellow paint on all the baskets, it would be a 3.5. I had trouble giving it a 3 but the lack of distance prevented me from doing so!

Many holes which cause you to think about how you want to play them. Great opportunity to practice technical shots through woods. Some holes offer several ways to play them making for an interesting round. Good tee pads and signage once you find the tee stations. Overall nice park, that is very well maintained.

Hard to find some of the holes (after hole 12 take the street to the right side of the basket to find hole 13). Two different types of baskets. Many very short holes, 90-150 feet, in the woods. Some holes seem to be thrown in with little thought (holes 15-17).

Avoid park on the first Friday morning of each month as there is a food give away with hundreds of cars making it difficult to play first few holes.

- A good course if you want to score an ace.
- Great range of shots. No two holes seemed alike.
- A cement tee pad at every hole.
- A nice down hill shot on hole 12.
- A few hole dog leg to the left.
- Nice tee signs with par, basket location and distance.
- Narrow fairways on some of the short holes. Makes it more challenging.

- No practice basket
- Two different kinds of baskets. About half single chains and the other half triple chain.
- A few holes are too short of a distance. Only one 400ft, a couple of 300ft and the rest 200ft and under.
- After hole 18 a walk back to parking and hole 1

A nice little course. If in the area and have time. You can play 18 holes pretty fast. " i hit my 2nd ace here"

Good tee signs; Creative pin locations for such short holes; Half of the baskets are Pier.

Some of the fairways are on top of each other; 18 ends nowhere near 1; Half of the baskets aren't Pier.

This is a fun course. Easy, but fun. You probably won't pull your drivers out except for a few holes. I would recommend it to beginners. It does have a couple of problems. One is that hole #8, I believe, has no fairway. It's just a basket in the woods with no logical route to it. Another would be that when you finish 18, you have to cross over a creek via some stones in the creek to get back to your car which is still a bajillion miles away. But that isn't anything that should make you stay at home. If you're in the area, play this course.

*Great use of elevation-holes going uphill as well as downhill
*Good mix of wooded and open holes
*Nice signage-signs show distance as well as hole fairways
*Baskets-Half and half
*Trash cans available at most tee stations
*Concrete tees (only a few have them at this moment)
*Decent variety in distance, although most holes are under 270'.
*Beginner friendly

*Seems as though most holes favor righties-not too many right turning holes
*A few ridiculously short holes
*Some of the concrete pads had no texture-they were smooth and slippery when wet
*Baskets-half were Al Pier spider baskets with 3 rows of chains and the other half were single row chained baskets
*A few navigation difficulties for the first timer
*A few holes play along/over a park road
*It is a long walk from 18 basket back to the parking lot
*There is no practice basket available, although there is a great spot for one near the pavilions at the parking area

This is a great course for beginners and those who want to work on their short game. It would be a great course to throw a couple 2 or 3 disc rounds. Only one hole longer than 300' and most of the holes under 250'. There are many opportunities for aces on these shorter holes. One hole is listed at 150' (if you choose the extreme hyzer route), otherwise you can take a chance at sinking a blind 80' jump putt.

The baskets at the course are alternating hole-by-hole between Al Pier Spider baskets and a single layered chain basket. I would of had an ace on 12 if it were a Spider basket rather than the latter.

There is a great variation of open and wooded holes on this course. There are a few open holes with mature growth sparingly through the fairway as well as a few tight and narrow fairways in the woods. Getting off of the fairway on the wooded holes may result in some time spent looking for your disc. In addition, there are a few holes where you have to hit a gap in the middle of the fairway to have a good look at duece.

A few things that could be done to improve the course are:
*navigation signs on a few holes
*texturized teepads
*bridge over creek after 18 to get back to parking lot

Overall this is a great course for beginners and those who want to work on their short game. It's in a central location to many other courses, so one should stop by to check it out on their way to another course. Who knows, you might just go home with an ace added to your ace count!

Good short course. Made me think on some shots. Pretty technical on a lot of the holes. Only a few with some distance.

Couple of holes are in some pretty thick stuff. One hole calls it out as 150' but you can shoot through the woods at about 80'. I didn't like some of the baskets, but the spider baskets are REAL nice

Got a lot of ace shots. Good starter course. I am pretty sure the creek runs through 1 and 12 has a road running through it as well as crossing the road on 9.
