- Located in a patch of woods at the front of a busy multi-use sports complex, yet the course enjoys the wooded area to itself. Crossing the park's entrance road between holes a few times is the main interaction with the other park goers. Map at entrance looks nice. A sign with, ah, interesting hot takes on garbage breakdown time frames accompanies the course map. A million years for a glass bottle, people, think about it!
- Nine baskets and eighteen tees; good signage throughout makes navigation a snap. Concrete tees. Raised baskets (holes # 2, 7, 11 & 16) attempt to mitigate flatness.
- A slight mix of longer (#9 is 460') and shorter holes, though definitely skewed towards the shorter side (only three break 300').
- Trees and the lines provide the spills and thrills. Designer has good eye for picking out eighteen holes (albeit on nine baskets).
- Nets, mandos, and woodpiles add to the course's infrastructure, rather than detract.

- Borders private properties. Trash and broken glass strewn about a few holes. Aesthetically sketchy, if that's, like, yer thang, man...
- Flaaaaaat. Nothing against the design, it's simply what they were given.
- More than a few groups at a time and things could start getting clustery...

- Overall, Amrstrong works. It works because its well-placed location in a busy sports complex presents disc golf in an accessible manner, without coming into conflict with other activities, or becoming a flat and open, safety-hazard nightmare. In the end, design can't overcome the piece of land one's given to work with; designer here did a great job making best use of a small, flat, wooded section of a busy park.

Easy to navigate- Large map of course near entrance Nice signs at each tee box Signs near pin for next tee directionConcrete Tee Boxes, benches and trash cans at some Very Easy to find your discs. limited undergrowthGreat for learning technical wooded shots or for beginners looking for shorter tees. Flatness of course with mostly compacted soil makes it accessible for almost anyone. Elevation of a couple pins and a few man made obstacles gives it character Creative use of a small space to get 18 holesGreat restroom facilities and paved parking

Playing 18 off 9 pins can cause small delays if busy. Some old trash remains from past property owners.(On going cleaning effort by current owner/ players)Variety is limited to only flat wooded shots

Great edition to the Three Rivers disc golf scene. Adding a different variety of challenging shots. The crew that built this course did a spectacular job of cleaning out an overgrown wooded space that was filled with tons of trash and debris. Transforming this small unused space into a functioning 18 hole course. Park also has pavilion, playground, pickle ball courts, and open field for practice drives.

-Great for woods practice.
-Outstanding amenities (tees, signs, baskets, benches, etc.) especially for what the course is.
-A gigantic open field right next to the course for warming up. Also a practice basket.
-Interesting lines and shot shapes. Not boring.
-Want practice on a raised basket too? You'll get two cracks at it per round.
-A variety of distances.
-Nice job utilizing every inch of the available property and getting the feel of a whole round of 18 out of 9 baskets in limited space..

-Terrain variety. It is all flat and all in the woods.
-Wouldn't be ideal for crowded situations such as tournaments.

Armstrong Park was an unexpected surprise for me today. I liked it a lot more than the people I've talked to. Its calling card is woods practice, offering many looks at small gaps and creative shot shaping. You'll be reminded abundantly here that you don't always have to attempt to park your shot under the basket every time for the best chance at scoring while navigating a woods environment in Disc Golf. Sometimes going for a spot 30' short or left or whatever is the best strategy to give you a look.

I think the luck factor is overstated here. Yes, there are a lot of trees, but there's space to work with and not much if any nasty rough or anything. On every tee I felt there was at least a small gap to make that would give me a look on the next shot. I've seen way worse in this regard; believe me.

If you're looking for a well-rounded course with outstanding terrain variety, this isn't it. (You'll get that abundantly at Meyer Broadway nearby). Come here with the mindset that you're going to get some work in hitting small creative gaps and you'll enjoy yourself. I did.

I'm an am masters guy rated in the low 900's and shot a 51 for the 18 tees.

I don't think it's possible to get higher than a 2.5 rating for being constricted in this section of woods. I'm happy this course is here, one more decent choice for those of us spoiled rotten in the greater Kalamazoo area.

- Beautiful Discraft Chainstar Pro baskets. Far and away my favorite model of basket.
- Well constructed tee pads. Nicely finished
- Nice tee signs.
- Navigation is easy with little yellow next tee signs all over the place. Never needed to resort to pulling out UDisc to locate where I needed to go next.
- I played on a very rainy day and I am kind of glad I did. The land here is extremely flat and at first glance looks like it may not drain well. Surprisingly, with all the rain there were certainly puddles it was by no means unplayable. This means the soils drain rather well.
- Hole 2/11 basket is a really cool elevated basket.
- Really no safety hazards at all

- This listing is incorrect IMHO. This is NOT a 18 hole course. This really is a 9 hole course with long and short tees. You cannot tell me 9 and 18 for example are two separate holes when throwing from 9 means going right over the top of the 18 tee. So in essence, the front 9 are the long tees and the back 9 are the short tees.
- The land here is pancake flat.
- WIth it being so very flat a lot of the holes start to look really similar to each other.
- Many of the holes on this course could really use some fairway definition. This is truly an exercise in "poke -n- hope" disc golf with hole 10 far and away being the worst offender.
- Hole 8/17 has no trespassing signs right behind the basket so be sure to watch out for that.

So since this is truly a 9 hole course with 2 sets of tees I am rating it as such. To me, a 9 hole course rarely - if ever - will be better than a 3 so I feel a 2.5 is very reasonable. Not sure how much play this course is going to get with the giant Meyer-Broadway complex a mere 3 miles away. Just to give an idea of the flavor of difficulty here, it seems to me that a mid level rec player is probably going to score around 52-54 most of the time.

After playing a few holes this is just a very very thorough study in throwing around trees. LOTS of trees. Maybe with all the trees maybe call this the "nice" course? Shout "nice" here and someone is going to hit a tree.
