This was another beautiful disc golf course closer to downtown Madison, and this one is absolutely free. Maybe not the most difficult course, but definitely a fun one to play. There are lots of birdie opportunities and also a lot of holes where you can pull out the long distance drivers. Elevation changes appear on almost every hole. There are pro and am tees for every hole, too. Glass bottles are technically not allowed on the course, but we didn’t have any problems. The mosquitoes here were pretty ruthless, especially once you get into the woods. Bring bug spray.
Hole #1
A pretty simple, straight uphill shot to open things off. The basket is just to the left at the top of the hill.
I thought this course was awesome. The $5 fee to play seemed a bit steep at first, but it became wildly apparent that the money garnered through this pay-to-play system was put right back into the course. There are dual, concrete tees on every hole, and each hole also has 3 separate pin locations varying in difficulty. They only have one location setup at a time, but playing a tournament here would be very interesting if they kept moving the baskets. There is a practice basket for putting and enough space to get in a good warmup. It wasn’t very crowded, but I was a little surprised to see a lot of beginner golfers. Gotta start somewhere. When reading these posts, keep in mind we are playing from the pro tees.
Hole #1
It was pretty windy while we were out at the course, which made this seemingly easy, straight shot a bit more difficult. There is a lot of space behind the tree if you want to take the hyzer route, which I did.
A tough 35 footer if you end up in the tree.
