Baw Beese Lake / Owen Park

Descent signs, good design for the area that was handed to the designer. The problem is that it surrounds a public park with kids and clueless people that a lot of the time are obnoxious and do not make the disc golfing experience enjoyable AT ALL. The locals have created a reverse 9, but it's pretty unorganized, and the last time I played was not marked properly.

Descent signs, good design for the area that was handed to the designer. The problem is that it surrounds a public park with kids and clueless people that a lot of the time are obnoxious and do not make the disc golfing experience enjoyable AT ALL.

The locals have created a reverse 9, but it's pretty unorganized, and the last time I played was not marked properly.

I would NOT recommend this course to someone who would drive far to play it, but if you are in the area and need a place to throw, at least it's free.

If you live close, it can be a fun place to throw a disc if the park isn't crowded.

Pros: Aesthetic/safety- plays through a lakeside park. I played in the spring so one else was using the park as it plays through very popular areas of the park. Safety might be an issue. Teesigns- nice, "standup" DGA signs with diagram and distances of the two pins. Baskets- nice faily new veteran baskets and in good repair. Multiple tees- though not immediately apparent, this is a nice addition, but not all areas are clearly marke. Cons: Routing and nav- this place needs a map ...

Pros:
Aesthetic/safety- plays through a lakeside park. I played in the spring so one else was using the park as it plays through very popular areas of the park. Safety might be an issue.

Teesigns- nice, "standup" DGA signs with diagram and distances of the two pins.

Baskets- nice faily new veteran baskets and in good repair.

Multiple tees- though not immediately apparent, this is a nice addition, but not all areas are clearly marke.

Cons:
Routing and nav- this place needs a map, seriously bad. Hole 1 is not obvious from the parking lot or kiosk. Has a nice kiosk, but nothing posted.

Challenge- Most of the challenge here comes from the lengths of the holes (really long for a 9-hole course) and uncontrollables like the wind (very windy). Other than that, it's wide freakin open. no real obstacles.

Teepads- Are beautifull and well done..

Very hard to find the course in the park. i had to stop and ask a couple locals, where the disc golf baskets were located.
