Payson Canyon

Short, technical course with dense foliage and areas of thick trees. This 18 hole course plays over and around a small creek, good elevation changes keep things interesting. This combination of hilly terrain and short and technical lines is unique and can be really fun and refreshing. Hole 7 is the only big hole on the course, the tee sign has it listed as a par 4; at just over 400 ft. and downhill I doubt that's legit, but it is a great hole and a great challenge.

Hole 7 is the only big hole on the course, the tee sign has it listed as a par 4; at just over 400 ft. and downhill I doubt that's legit, but it is a great hole and a great challenge. For the most part this course is an Ace Run for an advanced/pro player with 17/18 holes in the kill zone. Good mix of left and right doglegs and hallway throws. Alternate tees on 6 and 14, others might pop up as the course is played more. Great signs except some of them have fallen off, these are the same signs that Spanish Fork DGC has and the same issues abound there, they simply need to be secured with screws. The tees are natural and some of them are less than flat, hopefully fly pads or concrete will be installed in the future. Great addition to Utah Disc Golf.

Played this course early on Sat. 5/11/2013 and we were one of two pairs on the course. As we pulled into the parking lot and saw the thick trees I realized this was going to be a very technical course. I didn't have a course map and was a little worried that we might spend a lot of time figuring out the layout. This turned out to be unwarranted as the tees and baskets are well marked overall. I loved the vibe of this course and the constant sound of the stream was very relaxing. Bring your favor ...

I loved the vibe of this course and the constant sound of the stream was very relaxing. Bring your favorite flat mid range discs ( I used my stingray on quite a few holes) and prepare to focus on launching 200 ft laser shots through the hallways on the tight back 9. Hole 7 is the lone bomber hole down a nice grassy alleyway. There are 18 very solid baskets on this course and the dirt pads are sufficient since most holes are finese shots. I bounced one off a tree trunk and into the river but really didn't have to spend too much time disc hunting (I did throw mostly pink and orange plastic) ...I'm thinking the tree canopy will probably kill off the spring ground cover by summer and make this a perfect course for a hot day. If you want a nice precision oriented challenge on a very uncrowded course this one is perfect.

This course is tight and technical for a lot of the holes. It plays short for most of them, but overall this was a really fun course to go play. It forces you to play your shots with accuracy and precision. This would be a great course for Birdie runs and Ace opportunities. Some of the holes have some real fun elevation changes that make it fun as well. Would recommend playing with bright colored discs and having a buddy or group to play with so you can help each other spot where discs g ...

This course is tight and technical for a lot of the holes. It plays short for most of them, but overall this was a really fun course to go play. It forces you to play your shots with accuracy and precision. This would be a great course for Birdie runs and Ace opportunities.

Some of the holes have some real fun elevation changes that make it fun as well. Would recommend playing with bright colored discs and having a buddy or group to play with so you can help each other spot where discs go into the trees or come to rest. I would recommend planning a little bit of extra time in case you need it to search for an errant throw or bad skip off a tree.

This course could greatly benefit from a better course map. There is not one there and the one I found online is not real great. For the most part you can pretty well see where you need to go from hole to hole and the online map gave a general idea of how they are laid out.

Overall though, this course was a lot of fun and I will definitely go back for more!
