Pretty good course overall. Brand new baskets with Innova Disccatchers are a massive upgrade from the poor Mach III that seem to be too common in the Columbus area. The first 6 holes are more open shots with significant elevation change. Hole 7 and 8 are huge downhill and uphill shots in the woods, but around the 200' for total distance. These 2 holes alone make it so I wouldn't really call the course cart friendly due to roots and such. Hole 9 is the only full woods shot with a technical l ...

These 2 holes alone make it so I wouldn't really call the course cart friendly due to roots and such. Hole 9 is the only full woods shot with a technical line, other than maybe hole 1 from the long tee. The rest of the course is basically throwing out from the woods or into the woods where the basket is, with elevation still in play. Makes for an interesting course as the design effectively challenges your throw types. In the winter it was easy to find where all the discs end up, in the summer it appears like it should mostly be that way too.

Downsides of the course, I do not remember many trash cans. There are plenty of long walks between holes, hole 7 to 8, 11 to 12, and especially 17 to 18. The course also does not drain well and is one of the most muddy courses I've ever played in the winter.

Nothing too interesting about this course. Short, technical course with a few long holes. Nice concrete tee pads on every hole, however they were all fairly coated in sand and dangerous to play on. Baskets were great too. Hole 14 is pretty gimmicky with the triple mando over a swamp and the hole preceding it you literally can step-putt from the tee. Coupled with the odd walks between a few holes (after 5 and 11 IIRC), I feel as if the property could have been used a bit better. There were ...

Coupled with the odd walks between a few holes (after 5 and 11 IIRC), I feel as if the property could have been used a bit better. There were also quite a bit of bugs and the rough was very punishing.

Overall, it feels as if the course is a worse Holly Woods but with better tee pads. Both have similar total distance over 18 holes, but Holly seems a bit more interesting in course variety and shot availability.

Great course with tons of variety throughout. Had no issues with teepads on any hole, there were no poor baskets. Even with minimal Udisc use the layout was easy to understand and you knew what and where to throw just by stepping up to the teepad. This course is closer to Lake Michigan than the Beauty which makes wind a huge factor during the round. Compared to the Beauty, the rough on this course could use a little more cleanup. Coupled with the longer total hole distance than the Beauty ...

Compared to the Beauty, the rough on this course could use a little more cleanup. Coupled with the longer total hole distance than the Beauty, there is also longer walks between holes and was slightly confusing the first time around. In the summer and more busy months, I can also see an issue with the random Goliath teepads that were slightly off the fairway on about half the holes.

Played in winter with 1" of snow, short tees to baskets. Pretty good course overall with a lot of variety. Was not the biggest fan of all the sub-200 foot holes, and the long tees barely added to distance on those holes with an annoying tree 5 feet from the pad. The last hole (labeled 18 but played as 24) was a s-curve, with a hidden pond. Thankfully it was frozen over at this time of year, but was not a fan of that hole's design. In the summer, I would be pretty concerned for course main ...

In the summer, I would be pretty concerned for course maintenance based on playing the original course in the summer. There are a lot of thorn bushes to get caught on, and plenty of other underbrush that can make going off the fairways not fun at all.

Played in winter with 1" of snow, short tees to baskets, as well as once over the summer. Great course overall for beginners and slightly less punishing than the Monster. Average hole length is higher than the Monster, ironically, as the Monster has a 650 foot hole, so don't be confused by the course name if you are playing short to shorts. For this specific layout, the original course is marginally better than the Monster. The two are essentially the same. In the summer, I could argue th ...

Very muddy and wet at this time of year. There is variety to the course but it goes a bit to the extreme on some holes. Right now in December, the disc can cut through the random 90 degree turns but not so much in the summer. The poor holes were almost exclusively on the back nine, specifically 17, can't remember the others. Others have an obnoxiously low ceiling like holes 8 (hanging basket hole) and 10 (90 degree left turn). Those might be fine however I could not skip shot in the snow. ...

Hole 2 is missing a concrete pad and a majority of the course is missing signs guiding to the next hole. Could use improvements there.

Overall, looking to go again and update the review.

(09/13/2020) After some recent rough clearing, this course is one of my favorites. Has a great mix of 400+ foot holes and holes in the 200-300 foot range. Course has fair obstacles in trees, as well as a great mix of dogleg lefts and rights. The best part of the course is that it appears to be unaffected by recent rain or rough weather. Always in great condition to play. (04/25/2021) Loving the new alternate basket layouts. Wasn't the biggest fan of the alternate pin locations on 4 and 6 ...

(04/25/2021) Loving the new alternate basket layouts. Wasn't the biggest fan of the alternate pin locations on 4 and 6, but they should be awesome in 5-10 years as trees grow some more to shield the basket better. There has been even more rough clearing to make it easier to find discs but still punishing to go into. My one gripe of the course was hole 10, if youth baseball is playing then there are cars parked on the left side. A tree was removed on the right side of the fairway ~150 feet off the tee which keeps you away from that side of the fairway for RHBH/LHFH which is great.

Most maintained course of any I played at, with spray-paint out of bounds, clean fairways/rough/teepads/etc. A majority of the course is fairly open and shooting straight, so it can get fairly repetitive after a while. Long tee vs short: The long offers a tunnel shot at the start or some other object to avoid within 50-100 feet. The short tee avoids it. Long basket vs short: On some holes it is simply a slight left vs. right direction difference, with one being slightly farther away. S ...

Long basket vs short: On some holes it is simply a slight left vs. right direction difference, with one being slightly farther away. Some holes add 100s of feet easily between the two.

Negatives of the course mostly include baskets and long walks between holes. The flow of the course is not that great.
