Course Description
Mostly wide open off the tee. Slightly uphill from the tee to basket so plays longer than given distances.  Pull your drive and the tree on the right may come into play.  The large tree to the left down the fairway may come into play if your drive fades left at the end.  The long tee is behind and to the left of this view, and narrows the line to get through the first trees, so be straight off the long tee!   This fairway is wide open off the tee, but often the wind comes into play on this hole.  Watch for swirling winds around the tree line near the basket. The tree near the center of the picture is to the left and in front of the basket by about fifty to sixty feet.   One of the more interesting holes on the course, and will show the players personality!  There is a small (and getting smaller every year!) gap to the right of the big willow tree over the creek  for a big hyzer into the basket.  It's narrow and full of risk/ reward.  For the bigger arms an anhyzer over the giant tree behind the big willow will get you to the basket.  Beware however, if you don't clear the tree, it often  eats your disc and leaves it hanging from a branch at the top!  Others can lay up with a straight shot into one of the gaps around the guarding trees, leaving a short approach shot and a putt for a safe par.

Basket is in the open so you have a clear putt from all sides.  The basket does sit just past the crest of a small knoll, so it gives a slightly false sense of distance from the tee.   The basket sits over the crest of a small rise, fifty to sixty feet past the crest.  It is guarded by a large bush on the right and a large tree on the left.  The green slopes down towards the creek past the basket and can make for an interest come-backer if you run past the basket from the front.   This basket is fairly wide open, but the appraoches to it are guarded by several trees with low hanging branches that can come into play from distance.  The creek is close on the right and the woods past the basket give you about twenty to thirty feet of open space.  Location is key around this basket!

Hole 3 basket
Two lines to reach the basket from the tee.  Straight between the trees and over the crest of the small hill, or to the right of the trees and over the tracks.  The big tree guarding the basket from the front creates the need to place your drive where your upshot can get around it to reach the basket.   Drives can reach the basket from either side of the tree in the center of the fairway on the small rise.  The big tree is about thirty-five feet in front and just to the right of the basket.  The basket sits lower than the tree and the small rise.   Make your drive from the elevated tee and watch for the cross winds near the basket.  The trees on the right shouldn't come into play, but watch for the creek as it gets close to the basket on the right.
Hole 4 tee
Hole 5 tee
Hole 6 tee
Get a good drive off the tee and you can putt for a duece here.  There are lines under the tree, but low hanging branches can make it tough.  Get wide of the tree on either side for open putting lines.   The large tree helps guard the basket, and the way the basket sits below the rise and tree, makes it look farther away than it really is.  Get past the tree on either side and putt from the same level as the basket, or be ready to make a downhill putt.   The basket sits atop a small rise with a large tree behind it.  The creek runs to the right of the basket.

Hole 5 basket
Hole 6 basket
The basket sits behind the trees on the right, so a gentle anhyzer gets you in position for an easy putt.  Throw a nice straight shot in close to the tree line and hit a thirty footer for deuce!   There's a straight shot into the basket from the tee, but there's also a lot of things to make this hole tough.  The trees and creek on the right, and the big tree in the middle left of the fairway are all things that can steal your shot.  Get through the trees guarding the basket for an easy putt.  Hit them and take a par.   Wide open off the tee, with only the big tree on the right to reach out and grab your disc.  Stay out of it and get a great duece chance! The bike path is out of bounds.
Hole 7 tee
Hole 8 tee
Hole 9 tee
Just get your drive past the tree guarding the basket and you have a shot for a duece on this short hole. Stay out of the large pine behind the basket, and don't forget about the creek on the right!   The big pines guard the basket and the creek behind it help narrow the green.  Get in under the limbs for an easy putt, but hit them and  fight for a par.   Wide open on all sides, just get close enough and make your putt.

Hole 9 basket
One of the best holes on the course.  Tee off under the tree canopy and watch out for the trees on the right side of the fairway.  The creek runs behind the basket on the right.  The big tree in front of the basket is a disc grabber, but get past it and make your putt.   Wide open off the tee and for most of the fairway.  The trees on the left come into play only if your shot fades at the end.  The road on the right is out of bounds.   The signature hole on this course!  The tee is tight to the tree line on the right, and the creek and trees on the left narrow the fairway just where you want to land your drive to  set up your approach shot to the basket. The water is out of bounds, so be carefull!
Hole 10 tee
Hole 11 tee
Hole 12 tee
The green is open and flat, just you and your putt!   The green is open and flat, just you and your putt!   As the creek continues to eat away the bank near the basket, this green gets smaller and smaller.  It takes a good approach to get to the basket, and stay out of the water!

Hole 11 basket
Hole 12 basket
Mostly open off the tee, just stay out of the small trees on the left and don't go way right into the treeline.  The angle into the basket allows for a good landing area for your drive, but don't go far left into the creek where the fairway narrows.  The basket is in the open, but is slightly back towards the tree line, so going to the far right side of the fairway can make for a tougher left to right approach.   One of the few holes of its kind on the course.  To get to the basket you have to get around  the big tree in the middle right of the fairway.  Go to the left of the big tree, but don't hit it or fade far left into the creek.  Hit the gap between the treeline on the right and the big tree with a big "s" shot, but don't get caught behind the next tree line.  Good luck!   The basket can be reached in one shot from the tee, but it needs to be a good one.  The creek runs along the left, and a row of trees guards the right side of the fairway.  The fairway narrows at the treeline, then opens up again for a nice circular green.  It's all about risk/reward!
Hole 13 tee
Hole 14 tee
Hole 15 tee
The basket is in the open and about fourty feet from the treeline.    The basket and green are in the open, but the treeline on the right narrows the  hyzer approach.  Watch for the creek on the left on your approach into the green.   Once you get to the green its wide open, with just a small rising slope to the right of the basket.  A ditch runs left to right about fourty-five feet behind the basket and  large weeded area and the creek to the left.

Hole 14 basket
Hole 15 basket
It's wide open, just one tree in front and to the right of the basket.  Just hit your line!  Go past the basket and run into  the couple big trees protecting the bike path.   Open off the tee, with the trees to the left narrowing the fairway near the basket.  One large tree just in front and to the right of the green creates a nice hyzer shot to get to the basket.    Wide open for most of the fairway until you get to the green.  One large tree on each side of the fairway halfway to the basket can cause trouble if you pull your drive off line one direction or the other. Aim at the big willow at the end of the fairway and let your shot fade left towards the basket.  Come up short and you have to deal with a row of trees blocking the green on the left.
Hole 16 tee
Hole 17 tee
Hole 18 tee
One tree in front and to the right is all that stands between you and an easy duece.     The branches of the trees on the left hang low enough to influence your put if your short on your drive.  Run your putt long and deal with the small pine behind the basket.
Hole 16 basket
Hole 17 basket
Hole 18 basket
  The tree just off the tee on the right, along with the big overhanging limb midway down the fairway on the left creates a tight shot off the tee.  Your drive needs to turn to the right slightly to set up for a putt or approach at the basket. Hit the trees on the left and you can end up in the creek and out of bounds, or pull one to the right and put the pond into play!  Sure you don't want to lay up?   Hit the right line and your drive can reach the basket.  A large tree to the left of the basket overhangs the green and can influence your putts from that side.  End up short and to the right and the slope down to the pond comes into play.  Flat around the basket.

Long and fairly open. Two creeks run through it, creating nine holes with water hazards for Pros. The long tee for the practice basket (hole 19) has the golfer throwing over a pond. Bring your water discs! Several holes run along Duck Creek and can come into play. Crowded on nice days. League play through the summer and into the fall. This course is relatively flat and open, but challenges the golfer through distance to the baskets.
