I have been reading reviews for a while and I like using them to figure out what courses I want to play next. The only thing is it can be tough digging through reviews for one that is actually helpful. So I'm trying to put together a "how to" on how to write a review and I was going to submit it to "timg" to have him sticky it somewhere once it's polished up. This way people can use this guide as somewhat of a checklist when writing a review. This is what I have so far so tell me what you guys think and if I should add anything or change something. I already looked around and didn't see anything like this so I figured I'd put one together.
How to write a review. Use this as a guideline/checklist when writing your review. Thanks for using this site!
Topography – Elevation changes? Tightly wooded, wide open, or somewhere in between? Did the course offer scenic views? Was the course a good use of the land?
Difficulty – Was the course challenging or easy? Or was it "too" challenging with fairways just as wide as a disc? OB? Water? Mandos? Distances on holes?
Tee Signs – Are there any? Are they needed if not? How accurate are they? Are they easy to read?
Tees – How many? What material? Condition? Slippery? Grippy? Elevated tees?
Pins/Baskets – Old or new? What type of basket? Placement of pins good or bad? Elevated baskets?
Navigation – Arrows underneath basket? Clear pathways? Arrows along paths? Was the actual course easy to find? Did the front and back nine have two distinct loops? Was there maps available?
Maintenance – Was the course run down? Did the course look like the "Pebble Beach" of disc golf? Trash cleaned up?
Safety – Was there any dangers on the course? Close proximity to roads? Criss-crossing fairways? Possibility of throwing into other golfers?
Uniqueness – Singature holes? What stood out in this course compared to others?
Price – Free or pay-to-play?
Extras – Garbage cans? Benches? Scorecards available? Bulletin board with course info?
Park Amenities/Surrounding Area – Does the park or surrounding area offer anything else to do other than disc golf? Did you feel safe on the course (not a shady part of town)?
