Hammond Park

It's great that disc golf is growing and I'm excited to see any small town get a course. The PROS here: The course does well in using the space it has to design holes with tricky lengths. If you can boom it there's a lot of birds out there but for the average mortal it's hard to get to Circle.

It's great that disc golf is growing and I'm excited to see any small town get a course.

The PROS here: The course does well in using the space it has to design holes with tricky lengths. If you can boom it there's a lot of birds out there but for the average mortal it's hard to get to Circle. If you played all the pavement, roads and ballparks as OB then the course is very technically demanding. You have to drop your shots in the right places.

The CONS here: It's literally jammed into a ballpark. Some of these holes play over baseball fields, or right up to bleachers. The baskets themselves seem shorter than standard regulation. You could never have a tourney here as holes criss cross over each other.

The ODD here: One hole plays RIGHT up to the border of a dude's property. We were all alone one a weekday morning and after playing past his house, he made sure to drive his rusty monster truck around the park scoping us out, including pulling in the lot just to circle around behind my car and then moved back around us staring the whole time. Welcoming neighbor type :)
