Course Reviews
A very beautiful course that is good for every variety of players. This course offers some nice long hikes and short holes, such a nice course!
Beautful and scenic course with a good mix of shots. Mostly open, but a few wooded holes
Decent course. Could use some signage (or a different layout of holes) to help direct you from basket to next tee as some holes have a decent walk between them and not intuitive as to which direction to go.
Would also be helpful if tee box signs indicated if alternate pins were or were not in place as you can't always tell looking from the tee box.
This course has longer holes with some walking from one basket to the next teepad. There are 18 big concrete teepads with at least two pin placements per hole. Occasional local tournaments are hosted by www.knoxdiscgolf.org and sponsored by www.plutosports.com - with one big PDGA tournament per year called "The Volunteer Classic". Longer throwers will enjoy this course for sure - but some shorter throwers may want to skip the first hole that is over a pond. This is the home course of PDGA Pro Will Schusterick, 2010 USDGC Champ!!!
Nice scenery, some difficult holes, many leisurely throws. Nicely kept!

Victor Ashe Park DGC is an outstanding course in Knoxville, TN. This course has everything you need from open holes to wooded holes, long holes to short holes, uphill holes to downhill holes, water holes, and a great mix of left/right holes. You start of on the intimidating Hole 1 which is over water. Hole 1 is very short, but there are a ton of trees just after you cross over the water and a bad tree kick could land you in the water. If you are playing the long basket on Hole 1, it is much less wooded on the other side, but you have to put some power in your throw to stay dry. After finishing Hole 1 (hopefully with the same amount of discs you started with) it just gets better from there on. I'm not going to go into detail on every hole like I did for the first hole, but trust me, you are going to leave this course with a lasting impression and you will definitely want to go back many more times! An outstanding layout, multiple baskets on every hole, concrete tee pads and tee signs all play a factor in making this one of East Tennessee's best courses. If you are in the area, this is a must play! And even if you are well outside the area and like DG road trips, definitely hit this one!
