Course Reviews
I enjoyed this course today. This course has very nice long open fairways. Some holes were hard to find because of the setup of the fairways. It utilizes the land of the hole park and has 27 holes that will challenge.
Only a few things keep this from being a world class course of the highest caliber. It has lots of grassy fairways for rollers or grip and rip shots, and has an equal amount of technical holes. The pins are set among rocks and in tricky areas, the designer Kevin Rounds is a seasoned veteran of disc golf and played in Worlds himself a few times. The tee pads are coming along and the ambitious work crew is always making improvements, such as increasing it from 18 holes to 27. The only things keeping it from being world class are the fact that the land is flat so there aren't elevation changes, and the pins are DB-5 which is one step down from top level. However, an extra set of chains has been added to the basic DB-5 so there are 27 chains per pin now, which really puts them at pro level. A real pro disc golfer will love this course, and beginners will too.

First time playing this course in 5 years. Wish I would have checked the Media tab and downloaded or took a screenshot of the updated map. This course is now 36 holes which is great, but it is not intuitive where to go and the tee box numbers and basket numbers are a scrambled mess. Be sure to print or screenshot the newest course map from the Media tab.
That said, this is such a great course. Beautiful park, interesting terrain, and a nice variety of shots and challenge. Didn't have time to try all 36 today but will be back again. Played some mash up of the original 18 hole layout based on the map still posted on the message board by #1, which isn't how the course is now laid out fyi.
