Course Description
A great first hole! The tee is wide open, but a large tree is centered in the fairway about a quarter of the way to the basket. A very small tree sits up the hill to the right of the big tree narrowing the route to that side. The basket sits above the tee, so the low hanging branches of the guard tree make a very tough shot off the tee if you want to reach the basket with your tee shot. It can be done, but will take a great tee shot.   The fairway is open to the pin and can be reached from the tee. Be carefull of going to the left, across the small ditch is out of bounds, and the fairway slopes down to the left making for a challenging landing if your tee shot comes up short.   Tight off the tee here, but two clear lines to get to the basket. Go with a gentle hyzer through the narrow gap to the right and try to land at the top of the hill above the basket. Go with the anhyzer to the left, and try to land your shot below the basket or on the side of the hill.

The pin can be reached from the bottom of the hill or come in from the top side. The green is open from the top side, but can also be reached from the bottom side of the hill. From the bottom, there are small trees to get through, with a group of trees guarding the pin from the front. Don't go past the basket because of the drop off and row of bushes behind.   The green is sloped, but open. Plenty of room past the basket if you go long.   A great pin location adds to the challenge of this shorter hole. Putt from the top of the hill, or get to the bottom of the hill for a tough up-hill try. Watch the slope however; you could end up back right where you started with a bad roll on a miss!

Great view of the park from this tee box! A short hole with the pin wide open. The basket sits well below the tee, and can be reached with the shot you feel most comfortable with. Great ace run!   The basket location for this hole is across the walking path and at the crest of the hill on the other side. The clump of trees in front of the tee makes this a tough tee shot. It is possible to go to the right of the trees, but because of the low hanging branches it is hard to get your tee shot high enough to reach the top of the hill across the walking path. To get to the pin, the most used shot is an anhyzer from the tee with a gentle fade back to the left at the end of flight.   The basket for this hole sits at the top of the hill, well above the tee box. Heavily wooded, with the slope of the hill coming into play when landing your shot well. Watch for the out of bounds poles that run just off the tee to just to the left of the basket.

The basket sits on a slight slope, but for the most part is wide open. Just the temporary tarps come into play and can be just as big a help as an obstacle.   The basket sits at the crest of the hill, and is guarded by small trees covering the hill. An open area leads to the pin from the front, with a small path running along the top of the hill. Past the basket is wooded and not the place you want to be!   Getting to the basket is the hard part of this hole. The basket sits at the top of the hill on the pathway. Fairly open, just

Narrow fairway, with the tee to the right along the wooded tree-line. The fairway winds to the left and then comes back to the right by the basket. There is a light line straight ahead towards the basket, but the disc has to get through a lot of trees to reach it. The yard and house across the walking path to the left of the pin is out of bounds!   The tee and basket sit at the same level on this hole, but the big hill in between add to the challenge! The row of trees off the tee create clear lines to get through in order to reach the pin. The basket can not be seen from the tee on this hole.   The longest hole on the course, this faiway is relatively narrow, with the heavy tree-line to the left and the slope of the big hill on the right making footing for a second shot difficult. The basket sits to the left around the corner at the end of the fairway.

The basket for this hole sits about a quarter of the way up the hill to the right. this picture is taken from below the pin, with the tee to the right.   Th pin is in the open, with just a few large trees to get around before the pin. The challenge for this pin location is that if you go past the basket, you can end up at the bottom of the big hill past the pin.   The basket sits slightly to the left in the fairway and about a third of the way up the hill. It can be reached with a good second shot, but the angle of the slope can force a putt from tough footing. Watch the roll of the disc if you get a bad break!

Tee is wide open, with the only trees on this hole surrounding the basket. The wind can play a big role in this hole! It swirls over and down the slope of the hill, altering the flight of your disc.   The tee is well above the pin on this hole, with larger trees throughout the fairway. Two approaches into the green: hyzer from the right and come back up the hill to the pin, or anhyzer from the left and try to position yourself above the pin for your putt.   Just missing the trees on this hole is the key to success. There are two or three clear lines to reach the basket, just put enough on it to get it there!

The basket is surrounded by large trees, but there are clear lines into the green. The road well past the basket is out of bounds.   The pin sits on the slope of the hill and this can make for a fast green. A bad roll on a missed putt can put you at the bottom of the hill for a long "come-backer"! From the angle of the picture, the main slope is down to the right, but a smaller drop off can be see past the basket leading down to the shed.   Just missing the trees on this hole is the key to success. There are two or three clear lines to reach the basket, just put enough on it to get it there!

A short hole distance wise with plenty of challenge. Two approaches into the pin. Go left with an anhyzer, but end up on the road and its out of bounds. Go straight off the tee with a gently hyzer at the end just over the crest of the hill and hope for a soft landing. Again, go onto the road or sidewalk and your out of bounds.   Make your tee shot out of the pad carved out of the hill and get it over the crest of the hill in front. The pin sits over that crest, over the small valley and then in a slight depression on the next crest well above the tee. The pin can also be reached with a huge hyzer off the tee, just watch for the overhanging branches of the big tree to the right. Get a bad roll with this shot and you could end up rolling your disc into the pond, and yes, it's out of bounds!   This could be considered the toughest tee shot on the entire coure. The pin can be reached from the tee, but lots of things to get past to reach it. The trees just off the tee catch your eyes right away, but then you have to get your disc around the smaller trees that run down the center of the fairway. The branches of the trees are low, and you need to get under them with out throwing your drive into the ground too early. The building on the left pushes out to narrow the fairway about two-thirds the way to the pin.

The pin sits in the middle of the slope and over the crest of the hill. The small bushes above the basket can be used to slow down or hold your disc for a good putt.   The small tree guarding the front of the basket comes into play a lot on this hole. The pin sits in a slight depression, with the slope of the hill making footing tough to putt, or run it past the basket and end up well down the hill.   The pin is guarded by two large trees that create lines into the green. Go past the basket over the crest of the hill and possibly go down the hill. The landing area around the pin is relatively flat.

The trees with the low hanging branches about half way down the fairway make it key to get a good tee shot. The basket sits on top of the next hill, and if you don't get a good tee shot to set up your approach, the second shot can be a real tough one. Get past the trees and the fairway is open all the way to the basket, but get down the hill to the right and it creates a second shot that is uphill and in places hard to judge the distance to the basket over the crest of the hill.   This is a relatively short hole, but not as easy as it looks. The basket for this hole sits to the left side of the fairway, and the top of it can just barely be seen from the tee. The woods to the left of the fairway can be trouble if you hyzer your tee shot too far left, and go over the top of the hill too far and you can end up by the road. (Note: the basket you see to the right is #17's basket! You didn't think it would be that easy did you?)   One more hill to deal with! The basket sits above the level of the tee box, with several large trees in the fairway to get around. Landing your first drive in a good spot to reach the basket is key to scoring well on this hole. You can go on either side of the big tree in the center of the fairway and still have good shots to the basket, just watch for your disc hitting the hill and rolling down to the bottom. Also, the road and/or across the street into the yards are out of bounds.

The basket sits on the crest of the hill and is in the open, but get too far past it can you can go down the hill on the other side.   Tough pin location, with the side of the hill protecting it from the front and right sides. Go too far over it and you are coming back up the slope towards the road, and the trees can come into play from the left.   The basket sits just short of the crest of the small hill, with sharp angles on all sides. A hyzer approach is a tough shot because if it goes over the top on either side it can end up at the bottom of the hill. Anhyzer your shot in and you have a tough angle for your uphill putt!
