So disappointed.  We came to play because of the positive reviews.  There’s absolutely no way we will ever return. First, the signage is awful. Don’t get me wrong… there are signs.  But they are nowhere near the basket where you end. If you’re new to the course you won’t have any idea which direction to head when you finish most baskets, so you’re left wandering around trying to find where they stuck the marker, if there is one. Then good luck finding where the pad is supposed to be because there aren’t any pads.  It’s ok to not have pads, but to just spray paint a line in the grass/dirt/or pine needles isn’t going to cut it if you’re not repainting the line every few days.  Many of the lines were painted over large roots and uneven ground.  Speaking of which, you’re often walking down a “path” to get to your pad that is rough cut woods/underbrush where young trees were cut off 2-3” above the ground and left to trip you or to jab painfully into your shoe.  Then there’s the basket layout.  There’s a difference between technical and foolish and most of these qualify heavily for the later. There’s no way a player designed the course. It had to be a city employee who doesn’t play or care.  And don’t count on Udisc to save you because it won’t. The only bright side is that  you won’t lose any discs. You’ll just lose your patience and get tired of wandering around wondering what they were thinking when they built this course. By the 5th basket we were so disgusted we just about packed it in, but foolishly we kept going because of the positive reviews. By the end I was angry at myself and embarrassed for suggesting this course and wasting our time. This place truly needs a complete redesign by someone with experience who knows what they’re doing.
