Thanks for putting in this course. I enjoy playing it when I'm in town. It's a fun little course. However, with that said this isn't a course worthy of anything higher than an average rating. The baskets are flimsy, the tee pads barely adequate, several holes play back over other fairways and much of the course can't be played if there are any cars in the parking lot or people around. Some of the shots are fun to make, playing around a building for instance, but it isn't really a golf shot. Also ...

Shouldn't a grave be OB in almost EVERY instance?

Thanks again for putting in the course, and I'll be back to play it if I'm in the neighborhood, but I have to be honest with the course review.

The only thing holding this course back from an A+ rating is the mud and a few minor issues. Issues aside, this course is a gem! Worthy of Worlds this summer. The course has a variety of terrain, requiring a good level of control and distance. Issues: Being a new course there is the expected thick rough if you get off the fairways. Hole 16 is currently tight and technical only rewarding the most accurate of throws. Several holes have small lakes or mudholes on them which will clear after ...

The only thing holding this course back from an A+ rating is the mud and a few minor issues. Issues aside, this course is a gem! Worthy of Worlds this summer. The course has a variety of terrain, requiring a good level of control and distance.

Issues:
Being a new course there is the expected thick rough if you get off the fairways.
Hole 16 is currently tight and technical only rewarding the most accurate of throws.
Several holes have small lakes or mudholes on them which will clear after winter.

If you haven't been to McCormick yet, put on your boots and get out there. Don't forget to stop by Pour House http://www.yelp.com/biz/pour-house-st-helens afterwords and thank them for their sponsorship.

I've played this course twice now. The first time there were a few dozen people in the park on a Friday afternoon and we had to explain what we were doing there to regular park goers. The second time we couldn't play one hole as there were too many people in that area, and we had to be very careful playing over another group of people on the course. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE be courteous of park users as it is obvious that the course has been added with no thought of the dangers to these people. ...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE be courteous of park users as it is obvious that the course has been added with no thought of the dangers to these people. YOU are responsible if you hit someone with your disc, not the person that got hit, not the parks department or the city, not the course designer.

Pros: Great baskets, easy to get to, close freeway access

Cons: Tee pads are cedar chips with 4x4 stops, a 1/3 mile walk out from hole 9s basket to hole 1s tee pad, close proximity to park users, very little shot selection options.
