My Review from DGCR:

Pros: Personal Background:
#55620, current pdga rating 923, 10 years playing. Age 35.
Designed 2 permanent courses, and 2 temporary courses.
At least 80 courses played now in I think 17 states.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Course rating prior to this review N/A, 1st review
Design- 4.5
Baskets/Tees- 2.5 (Tees 2, Baskets 3)
Signage- 2
Replayability- 5
Beauty- 4

18/5 = 3.6 ... round down to 3.5. On DGscene I am integrating this to a B as that would equate to 3.6 on the 5 point scale. I personally believe that DGscene ratings are a little softer than DGCR. Udisc is also softer IMO. So, take that with a grain of salt.
____________________________________________
Design-this is an 18-hole course designed by local favorite 60+ am Bob Johnson. This is the course for the eclectic soul. 18 holes at par 60 somehow fit onto 6 acres. You will be introduced to the "box", the "stump", "medusa", and "beetlejuice". Even though we are talking 18 holes on 6 acres, this place is tough! It mostly works its way up and down a fairly graded hill. Great balance of shots that make you execute, or you will be losing strokes to folks.
_______________________________________________
Baskets/Tees: Tees are adequately level packed dirt. If you don't like that, this place isn't for you. Possibility of turf tees in the future. The baskets are a hodge podge of mostly MVP black holes, and a few others. All black.
______________________________________________
Signage: Tee signs as expected. Telling you hole number and distance. Nothing fancy, but helps you locate the basket.
______________________________________________
Replayability: The good stuff. This course is crazy fun. Lots of up and down. A couple of ace runs. Plenty of distance. The last hole is a jump-putt ace run to boot. This is the course you want to play for maximum fun level... if you have the will to go for a hike. Flatlanders will have a tough time.
_______________________________________________
Beauty: This course shows off the beauty of Larreee. From up top you can see miles of pasture. Old growth trees about. Lots of pretty lines.
Cons: As above
Other Thoughts: This course is a gem. It is private, but the owner/designer that lives on site will typically take up most offers to get out to play. Hope to see lots of disc golfers out here for years to come! Big thanks to the people of Larreee and the Henroost for hosting us!
