Other Thoughts:
I was impressed with the design of this course. There is not much space to work with here, but the designers did a great job of making a small 9-hole course into a challenging round of golf. Holes 3 and 4 have thick trees, bushes, and OB that make some tight lines. These holes also dogleg to the right, so they will challenge RHBH throwers. #5 has a cool uphill tee shot over a ravine. The six holes located in the grassy park area are short, but all have some tree obstacles and/or OB to keep them from being boring. I am looking forward to playing this course again. It is a good addition to the Treasure Valley disc golf scene.
