Just a number

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 15, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

Does have 9 baskets

Cons:

No tee boxes are marked.

The baskets are numbered, but the 3 baskets that "use" to bee 7, 8 and 9 have been moved over by the stadium holes.

No shade, can't play if anyone is using the sports fields

Other Thoughts:

While I have played worse, this is a a practice area with 8 baskets around sports fields at this point. (and one basket down a short trail)

I started on what UDisc has this course listed as hole 2 by the parking lot. I could see basket #1 next to a shed.

I played and went across to hole 3. Elivated tee to a basket on the oder side of the field. I then looked at the UDisc map and it had hole #1 way down. I was confused because there was a basket between there and #3. I threw to it and it said #8. I then climbed up the hill and threw to what I thought was basket 4 (UDisc has the tee in some very high grass) parked it, but it was basket 7???

There was a mowed path behind the basket, I walked down it and found basket #4 overgrown with grass but mowed around it.

I then threw to the basket between teh fields and it was basket #9. Threw from there to the basket by the road and it was basket #5. Cross the road and threw to basket 6. The UDisc map shows a tee shaired by #1 doing onto the high brush area. There was a trail so I followed it looking at my map. Sure enough, I found the pin position for #7. There is no way I would have thrown this hole anyways. Throw off teh small path and you are not going to find your disc. Must be why they moved these 3 holes out to the open.

I then went and threw what UDisc had listed as hole 1. I actually found the old innova tee marker in the ground, but it was actually pointed in the direction of #7 pin, not hole 1. I would be willing to bet the origianl hole 1 starts down closer to the original basket 9 location.

Either way, the UDisc map was useless so I am not even going to post it here. This needs to be changed to a practice area unless someone gets out there and designs a workable course out of what they got.

Would I play here again? Nope, absolutely not. It looks like they have space for a course around the campus, but it would take some work to keep it in playable condition. I just have a feeling the school is not interested in doing this. The Trail the course "use" to follow looks like it may be for the cross country team. It winds around too much to be fairway.

Forsaken

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 15, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

Baskets are in pretty good condition.

The playable holes are mowed well, but this is only due to them playing next to (or over) the football and soccer practice fields.

Hole 5's basket is elevated on a rise in the corner or the soccer field, and hole 6 tees downhill down one side of the football practice field. Hole 3 is on a small downhill that makes running a putt a little risky.

Cons:

I just don't know where to start with this one, but... start, I must. The holes that are playable (1, 2, 3, 5, and 6) are wide open with absolutely nothing in the way. Hole 2 plays with a parking lot on its right side the entire way, and there's some tall grass on the right side of 1, 5, and 6, but if you throw a good backhand, you'll be ok.

Zero markings of tees or directional signage anywhere. A map or udisc is a must-have. Also, walking an entire soccer field down to 4 (just to find it was unplayable) was more annoying than it should've been.

Holes 4, 7, 8, and 9. They're unplayable. Maybe in the winter they open up some, but when I was there in mid-July, the back three had a 3ft wide strip of mowing followed by the mower taking one circle around the basket. Apart from that there's thick 3ft high grass and reeds, with trees dotted all over. With the doglegs around trees that turn the "fairways" into multiple blind corners, any throw that's making a legitimate attempt to score well on the hole will almost certainly be a lost disc. Hole 4 was the worst offender. The basket has a 3ft wide strip mowed right in front of it, and a yawning, 300ft long gulf of that same chest-high grass. I didn't bother finding a tee, I knew I wasn't risking a disc to that mess. If you have the confidence to stick a disc on a 3ft deep strip of grass, my hat is off to you. From what I can tell, reviews from other sources have been citing this as an issue for the past two years, and it's unfortunate, since they have the terrain to be the best holes on the course.

If you for some reason decide to play all the way to hole 9 (God be with you), you get to walk either out and around on the sidewalk, or back up the "fairways" of 7, 8, and 9 to the parking lot.

Other Thoughts:

Obviously, if there's a practice occurring on one of the fields you'll have to skip even more holes.

This one is a no-go. 44% of the holes are ignored by the school, and the ones that aren't would probably be in the same jungle if the sports fields weren't right next to them. How a school can neglect parts of their land people might use is pretty befuddling to me, but then again, I'm not the one approving the budgets. This one is so bad I'm not sure I'd recommend it for anyone but the hardest of hardcore baggers. And even then, if you value your time, give this one a hard pass.
