Pros:
- Funky wire numbers on the top of the homemade baskets.
- Several fun, interesting tee shots!
- Park seems very well maintained.
Cons:
- Incredibly unsafe design! Hole 1 shoots over the Hole 9 basket. Hole 4 shoots over the Hole 3 basket. Hole 5 shoots over a basketball court. Holes 6 shoots over or immediately adjacent to a ballfield. And Hole 9 shoots near/over the Holes 1 (blind) and 5 baskets, along with the Hole 6 tee area.
Other Thoughts: I thought it was a quick, fun recreational course to play, but assuming those other courts/fields are used from time to time, that course is an injury/accident/argument waiting to happen. Never seen as many overlapping or criss-crossing fairways as this course has. Too bad, as it wouldn't surprise me to hear that the course has been pulled for safety reasons a few years from now.
