Finding myself with a few extra hours I decided to make the drive into Cincinnati to try the new 18 hole (well, currently 16 holes due to construction) course on Xavier's campus.
Pros: Plenty of parking-There's a huge lot across from the Cintas center with ample parking, just avoid it if there's an event going on.
-Most Teepads were turf on top of wooden platforms built for the purpose. They were in good condition.
-Ace runs on basically every hole
-If you're playing with kids you could likely manage the whole course with a stroller. 1-4 might be a bit tricky but there were sidewalks near nearly every tee.
-Baskets had a little sign pointing to the next tee, which could be hard to spot in the tall-ish grass I experienced throughout the course.
-A couple holes have bushes in the fairway forcing some mild shot shaping

-No distance, the average length is around 170'
-No variety, nearly every hole blends in with the prior hole. A short, straight throw in a field.
-Baskets 13-17 all occupy the same small field and some are within 50' of each other. This means that even a slightly errant shot flies into other fairways or teepads
-The course is linear, not circular. Hole 18 finishes off nearly a quarter mile from where hole 1 starts.
-Hole 4 plays beside a parking lot for an apartment complex. It would not take much of a RHBH griplock to send a disc into a car, of which there were several along the fairway.
-Basket 7 is near a few beekeeper hive boxes. It would be a bad shot to end up near them, but something to watch out for if the kids wander that way.
-Walking path that is near the course could definitely come into play, especially for the new player this course seems best suited for.
-Teepad 15 is on a down-slope
-No tee signs
-Not a long term issue, but currently 2 baskets are out due to construction of a new water fountain and garden area. No idea when that will be completed.

I think the 1.5 Passable rating describes this course perfectly. It's not that it shouldn't exist, it's just that it doesn't really add anything of value to the area unless you happen to live close or go to the college. Otherwise, if you're looking for a short pitch and putt, there are better options in the area.
