Yes, there are drunks, yes, there are all sorts that hang around the benches, they never stop me from playing here. It's a city park, if you don't expect the irritating regulars, you're not going to have a good time.

This course is awful. Not because the course itself is terrible(it's not) but the "scenery" is. Drunk teenagers, empty 4 Loko cans, and idiots make up the majority of the course. It is the local hang out for bums as well. There is a league here on Thursdays that rotates with Starr Jaycee(a far superior course). there is little to no reason to ever come play here and you will only want to draw your own blood by the time you get through the first nine holes. Don't be surprised if you get asked to ...

course deserves a B for efficient layout in a nice city park. The course back in the day was much more tedious.

You have to play this course "EARLY" to avoid the jungle trouble! LOL Wagner Park, Safari 18 holes one of the hardest courses on the east side! http://www.discgolfscene.com/leagues/SATURDAY_SAFARI_Wagner_Park_2010/leaderboards

Nice use of space with over half of it under shade with big trees. Great location. Bum sleeping on bench, teenagers hanging hammocks in between tee box and basket, no parking spaces (had to park in doctor's office across the street). Difficult to navigate: Couldn't tell what baskets went with what tee pads a few times. Didn't know there were short and long pads until Hole #7 or so.

Another small course near home, that I just hadn't gotten around to playing. A little rough, no good parking and looks like it could get crowded (with non disc golfers hanging out in the park) at times... but we played on a day when it was pretty empty. Definitely worth stopping if you are in the area and have time for a quick round. It's in Royal Oak so there are a lot of other things to do in the area afterwards.

Pretty solid park course. Kind of a wonky layout but it works out. They have a nice mix of long and short holes. Baskets are a little rough and the casual traffic is a bit of a downer but all in all pretty fun!

Really wanted to like this park. The layout is great if you know where you're going. If you don't have a map handy, or someone in your group that knows the layout, you're screwed. It's very POORLY marked with a lot of signage vandalized or missing all together. The course plays great with a mix of medium to easy shots.

Would have given this course a higher score if it was more user-friendly.

For it being a city park it is pretty decent. Much more interesting shots than Starr. Baskets are severely outdated though.

Very confused navigating the course. Layout of holes was okay for a park. Baskets were in decent shape and tee pads were way too small for my liking. Also couldn't find parking for the park.

This is my home course. Dirty, interesting characters.. sounds great. Can play it as a 9 or an 18.. just be careful of the leash less dog area.. that occasionally floods.. #snickers #caddyshack

With the new basket upgrades, tee pad reinforcement/additions and actual practice basket the course is an A. It's a city park and the history here is incredible. The course has a certain magic to it, and it's nice to see the city recognized that and invested in it.

Grew up loving this park, but sadly the lack of upkeep has made it hard to get out there and play it. In desperate need of new baskets and tee pads. Pads are two short, and uneven ground around them make them dangerous to try and get a good run up.

Play here all the time. Not the most clean but a pretty nice course all n all. For a 9 basket course it flows and plays excellent. No garbage cans on the course but sometimes a bag on a couple. So if you take it in you better take it out. No restrooms neither.

Decent course, fun. It could use some updating with signs for the second tees and better tee pads, but hey, it's free. A nice afternoon can be spent combining Starr and Wagner.

New baskets in! New/improved tee pads in ! Wagner park gets busy now that the sport is growing, a lot of new players coming out. But not a beginner course at all. I'd recomend raintree in Troy if your just starting out , like I said wagner gets busy. And even more so this year

The lack of parking for a public space is a bit annoying. Could use short tpad markers and new baskets. Overall though it’s a nice mix up of different throws both short and long tees with slight elevation changes on some holes.

My home course, first round 1998. A good place to practice and learn your plastic. Good mix of hole lengths. 9 basket, 18 tee pad, Royal Oak style course. A few crush drives, small elevation changes on a few holes, and big trees to navigate. Does not require varied shots, pretty much hyzers and a few anhyzers, typical "park golf." but challenging enough. Lost a ton of ash trees 2003/4 and plays easier than it once did, needs some TLC, and trees planted to make it a better course. Too much ...

I talked a lot of shit about this park at first (thought it was too small), but all things considered it's not a bad park. Much better than its cousin park Star JayCee, but not as nice as the local Firefighters park. Wagner has multiple play-places for kids of different ages, some decent length holes for such a small park, and plentiful parking (which is really saying something for Royal Oak). It seems that all parks are plagued by some sort of parasite; if you play in Davison, expect some mosquito bites - if you play in Wagner, prepare for the cigarette mooch.

I played this course for the first time today in the morning. Very nice location, easy to find and park. In residential area. Pros: Course has variety at each hole Wide open drives, but still has the challenge of trees Hilly terrain making an interesting game Lots of other disc golfers around, but not too many Cons: Confusing for first timers, only first 9 holes are marked Back 9 are just alternate variations of Front 9 First hole was very hard to find basket since there are ...

Tee pads are too short but they maximized the space for the course. Thought I’d hate it but I’m sure I’ll be back. Better than Clarkston. I’d say it’s like Firefighters Park with only 9 baskets.

Good Course, too many random people doing nothing, while they are there.. High-school kids smoking and drinking, but not playing.. Too crowded, too many bees and no-where to park.. If I was alone in this park in the fall, I would give it an A+, but that is never the case..
