Langley Pond Disc Golf Park

Pros: Aiken County Parks, Recreation, and Tourism Department has "literally" shown other counties in our state how a championship gold level course can be placed strategically for recreation and tourism benefit to a county!!! - Heavily wooded course for the technical player but definitely playable holes, I had a nice Ace run that ended up a bird on 16 (hit basket), we had several birdies made through the round and yes sadly a few bogeys and double bogeys......Of, course there are some great s ...

Pros: Aiken County Parks, Recreation, and Tourism Department has "literally" shown other counties in our state how a championship gold level course can be placed strategically for recreation and tourism benefit to a county!!!
- Heavily wooded course for the technical player but definitely playable holes, I had a nice Ace run that ended up a bird on 16 (hit basket), we had several birdies made through the round and yes sadly a few bogeys and double bogeys......Of, course there are some great spacious holes for grip and rip fans too!!!
-Elevation is prominent to say the least and the course is a more like a gentle hike versus a stroll in the woods. Some hills are steeper than others.
-Modern design to pin placement makes you be creative with your approach shots.
-Great amenities (clean restrooms) playground, picnic tables and parking. The park is located behind a shopping center off the main highway, great for supplies.
-FORMAL DRIVING RANGE- 4 tees, and a practice area with 2 BASKETS is nice concept to see.
-2 sets of tee pads (Pro/Am) on every hole except 18, which you throw off an amazing hilltop toward driving range......MAJESTIC!!!!
-Great mix of excellently designed par 3's, par 4's, and 5's
-Benches at every tee pad are nice for busier days and for tourneys.
- Tees and signs are awesome weatherproof signage that will last through the change of seasons!
-I think the directional arrows in bottom of tray of basket are very contemporary feel.


Cons: The course does have stairs in most crucial areas of the course and I know the curators are still working but some of the transitions from basket to tee pad areas may need "step attention" if a sufficient path isn't worn in the hills over time.
If the fairways were possible "dragged" with a tractor clears all the collateral damage debris and bush hog shrapnel remains, walking the course would improve 100%.


Other Thoughts: I initially played the course on New Year's Day 2016 and it was an absolute war zone with all the fallen logs, branches and overturned shrubs still in place! I returned to play it this past Saturday (March 19, 2016) and the difference was unbelievable!!! I hated to have to put "cons" down but that's how we make improvements to the courses! Great job to the visionaries that wanted to bring a course to the "Pond" and to the ones who "dug" this course out of the woods!!

First things first, don't let the name deceive you, this is not a park style course. There are a couple of holes that let you air it out but the rest of the course is very wooded and technical. There is alot of elevation change and water is in play on at least 7 holes.it is definitely a well thought out tract and the practice facilities with 4 tee pads on the driving range and two baskets to practice putts and approaches make this a gem of a course. There are benches on every hole and pro and am ...

There are benches on every hole and pro and am tees on every hole except 18 which uses the same tee pad but is a par 3 for pro and par 4 for am tees. I live 10 mins. from the course and am proud to call this my home course. Aiken County Parks and Recreation Department and the course designers have given us an awesome place to play. If you are anywhere near this course DO NOT pass it up!

I have been playing about a year now. I am lucky to live in North Augusta SC. There are alot of good courses but Langley is definately one of the ones that has helped change my game for the best. Water taught me to not be afraid and trust my disc. Elevation, well still trying to figure out uphill shots. I have learned how to shoot the gaps, lay up for a better shot and pitch out to not take more strokes. I can leave langley and play an "easy" course and laugh at myself for my "mistakes" no ...

This is a great course designed for AM's and Pros. This ain't no walk in the park. Its an adventure through the woods! Come check it out. You will not be disappointed. Pack a lunch and eat at the pavillion midway through the course. It overlooks the water. Cheers!
