9 hole wooded course which presents a challenge to most DG'ers. A practice basket, lost disc box and scorecard box (albeit empty) are beside the main building by hole #1. Good Innova baskets and adequate-sized tee boxes. Laminated, color signs at each hole depict distance and desired flight path. Easy navigation with wooden arrows underneath each basket pointing the way to the next hole. Good use of elevation and a small stream on the property. Hole #5- a straight drive, dogleg right and basket on a hill above water- can stand with any hole found on many 18 hole courses.

Several holes have no distinct fairways and rely too heavily on the "luck" factor. Good drives can go unrewarded, as another line of trees await your approach. Stone tee boxes need to be raked and evened out. No bathrooms or amenities. Very muddy in spots. Drives off hole #1 come dangerously close to the hole 9 basket. Noise from the highway running parallel to the course might bother some players. The rough is most certainly God-awful in the summer.

This is certainly one of the more challenging 9-holers I've played, and it's obvious thought and effort went into the design. Trouble is, more work is needed here. Cutting down a tree or two would help correct the "throw and hope" aspect of the course on several holes.

The biggest problem I see at White Tail Woods is that anyone who really wants to play disc golf is going to drive the three miles down the road to the newly installed Coyote Hills, or play any one of 5 or 6 other quality 18 hole courses within 25-35 minutes. Tiny Shaffer Park offers little else than a dog park on the premises, and the disc golf course could be a forgotten venue. WTW is worth a look, but I couldn't see myself playing frequently here unless I played it with a couple of other area courses.

Nice tee signs
Clearly defined gravel tees
Arrows to point the way to next tee
Terrain gives you a chance to experiment with lines in this tight technical course.
5 is a nice 334 foot right turn over a creek.

1 starts out throwing over basket 9, but there are plenty of signs to prevent shooting at the wrong basket.
Many of the holes had no fairway, the course favored the lucky more than the skilled. There were only 9 holes and I started getting the feeling of redundency as I threw through scattered sapplings and young trees with no clear line, I can not even imagine this course in the summer when the foliage is in full bloom.

Baskets are in decent shape, but they are definatley showing rust and wear.
I did not see the practice baskets that were mentioned in other reviews, but I did see the dog park, but it was only open to members, so my dog could not partake in the canine playground which was almost as big a disapointment as the course.
4 seemed to have a pond on the right, but that may have been due to the town flooding.

Very challenging, longer than your typical heavily-wooded technical course. Benches at most holes. Next tee arrows on bottom of baskets. Two practice baskets. Area dedicated to disc golf.

Too challenging, much longer and very more heavily-wooded than a typical technical course. 4' x 8' teepads unevenly semi-filled with small stones made the run-up very difficult - eventually opted to not bother with a run-up at all. Basket #9 threatened by tee shots from #1. Teepad #5 threatened by drives from #4. Can't see baskets from teepad - often still can't locate baskets after initial shot.

Very, or too, challenging? If you enjoy wooded/technical courses, you'll need to make that call for yourself. Don't let the long, but relatively open, #1 fool you. #2 requires a mid-range left-turning shot to exit the woods, which will leave you at one end of a clearing, and the basket at the other end. #3 has you seemingly in the middle of the woods, indicating the basket is down and to the left in a clearing - much luck if you can find any kind of path to reach even the edge of the clearing on your first shot - or second. #4 has the basket "straight" away at 350', but your disc will have to do a double, maybe triple, S-shape, to get through the multiple "lines" of scattered trees. #5 starts similar to #4, but requires a right-turn around the halfway mark, and so, too, #6, but this time a gentler left-turn (so to make up for the gentleness, add more trees than normal). #7 is the easiest hole, under 300' and left turning, but it has a OB area to the left and a second set of scattered trees (a recurrent theme) to stop shots that initially hit the desired line. #8 has you battling an assortment of trees as you work your way to the basket slightly uphill and right, and finally #9 funnels you towards a narrow exit from the woods, only to find the basket sitting amidst a trio of large hardwoods.

So, its not that the initial throwing lanes are any narrower than other woods/technical courses I've played - its that there is a second, and sometimes, third wave of trees that just take away any reasonable throwing lane - discs are not designed to dance like knuckleballs. You'll often find yourself aiming to hit the first gap, and hoping for good fortune afterwards.

Favourite hole #5:336', need to go "straight" (that is, avoiding a motley collection of trees the entire way) about half that distance, then turn moderately to the right. This takes you down a slope to a small stream, then back up to a basket set amidst mini-terracing.

This course will leave you with an itch you'll want to scratch again, which is a good thing for a course. Improving the teepads (maybe mulch/pine needles would work better than small stones?) and removing a few of the smaller trees to create a few more reasonable throwing lanes on most holes would raise this course to a top-notch nine-holer.
