I find it funny that the negative reviews have all gotten a -1 vote. There are some absolutely ridiculous groups of 7+ that go through. Now I have no issue with having fun with a group that knows the game and can shot smoothly without holding up the entire course, but there are all to often groups that are NOT respectful and consist of rookies or people who are only there to get high/drunk. These are facts. Deal with it. Garbage is seldom picked up, there is glass in pretty much every waiting ar ...

I find it funny that the negative reviews have all gotten a -1 vote. There are some absolutely ridiculous groups of 7+ that go through. Now I have no issue with having fun with a group that knows the game and can shot smoothly without holding up the entire course, but there are all to often groups that are NOT respectful and consist of rookies or people who are only there to get high/drunk. These are facts. Deal with it. Garbage is seldom picked up, there is glass in pretty much every waiting area, and dead trees abound. HOWEVER, there are a lot of really cool people and some of the most seasoned players you will find outside of the pay parks.

WHAT MATTERS - go early and you will have a much better time, like plenty have already mentioned. As for the COURSE, I find it to be one of the more difficult spots around from the longs. Some holes are really wooded and anyone who cant drive/throw straight will grow irritated fast. Not as wooded overall as Rolling or Willow, but still plenty of obstacles. Some of the best features of the course are its elevation changes. They occur most notably on hole 3 (massive hill shot), 15, and 16. There are some holes with water in play, some with rough OB on the edges, but in general you can throw without much danger. One of the best parts of Cass is the amount of throw variations. Tommy, thumber, rollers, hyzer and anny drives, and pretty much anything you can imagine. The distance as a whole is not impressive in general, very few real all out driving, but enough to satisfy the power people. That being said Cass is more for smart and smooth shooting.

THE CONSENSUS - prepare to see plenty of chronic and brew intake if you go after 2pm on the weekdays and earlier on the weekends. The course has plenty of diehards that come out even in the winter. The course is really fun, not overally difficult for people with some game skills, but needs some maintinence like a mofo! With some love and donations of time and experience, this course could be much better. Make sure to teach those who are NOT aware of the etiquette of the game the right way, then maybe we can make Cass much better.

Only my second round on the course and I realized how disgusting it is. Casuals are unbelievable. No respect at all. I got thrown on while putting 3 different times by three different groups. Beer cans left on the tee pad. Broken glass around every corner. The only thing I can say good about this course is that the first 9 or 12 holes are pretty fun to play if you can get around all the bullshit. I do not recomend this course to anyone. Really made me respect the upkeep of courses such as Black ...

Only my second round on the course and I realized how disgusting it is. Casuals are unbelievable. No respect at all. I got thrown on while putting 3 different times by three different groups.

The only thing I can say good about this course is that the first 9 or 12 holes are pretty fun to play if you can get around all the bull****. I do not recomend this course to anyone. Really made me respect the upkeep of courses such as Black locust, OG and Monster. And many others I'm sure. But this course is a great example of why disc golfers have a terrible steriotype.
