Watonga 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 24, 2019 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Watonga is an excellent mix of woods, bayou and mowed park golf. Especially memorable holes were 6 in the woods, 7 and 12 over the White Oak Bayou (12 is fun to do a skip shot of the concrete), 14 along the Bayou being the hardest hole out there, then 15 throwing at 2 softball backstops and 17 throwing from a concrete tee pad slightly downhill towards the bayou. Park gets mowed every month which is great. Plays similar scoring to Moffitt in that it is easy to get under par. Multiple pin positions keep it interesting to mix it up too though.

Cons:

Lots of people like to walk dogs in the park, so sometimes can be dog poo in the grass.

Other Thoughts:

The park was built back in 1962 and some BMX bikers built some ramps in the woods and kept getting hurt, so the city built EZ7 skatepark /BMX park at some point around 1980. The wood's ramps and trails are now holes 2-3 and 6. 3 months of hard work went into clearing out lines for golf in those woods. A few walls were built for safety reasons to separate the holes 1&6 as well as holes 3&5.
