Dodds is a great intermediate course, that should challenge even some of the more advanced players.

There is some decent length on this course, but it is almost completely open, and players with even 300' of power can simply throw over many of the trees that would otherwise force more interesting lines. There are some good hazards in play here, OB sidewalks and streams provide some risk/reward, and there are a couple baskets with dangerous sloped greens. Ever-present wind will also add difficulty on the mostly open holes, but bad shots frequently go unpunished with fairly easy recovery for par. Some of the holes just seem like filler, flat, wide open holes around 200' are pretty boring.

The tee pads/signs and baskets are very nice. This is a multi-use park, but other park users shouldn't usually impact play (sidewalks do border some fairways). There is a long walk from 18 back to one, with no stop back to the parking lot during the round. During this walk, I discovered a practice basket I had not seen upon arriving. This seems like an odd location, as you have to walk a considerable way away from Hole 1 to utilize it.

Dodds Park is a perfectly adequate disc golf course. Players in the area with bigger arms will enjoy some of the longer holes here , and there are enough interesting holes to make for a fun round. I would make a return trip for sure!
