Rambadt Park DGC

This is a fun course to play, but the holes are comically short and way to close to each other for proper safety. There are serious safety concerns with the design and long term, soil compaction is going to be a serious issue. The course would have been better as a 9 hole course and possibly even pushing into other under-utilized park areas. Despite being very short, it is not cart friendly. There's a nice amount of elevation change. Variety of shots is limited - I only use a few different discs for an entire round. It is thoroughly woodchipped. Overall, maintenance is good. That said, the rough is an absolute nightmare - thorns and impenetrable. You can tell the rough is largely comprised of reclamation plants. A storm took out many of the older trees so much of the course is defined by newer growth. Finding the park entrance can be a little tricky. Course flow is ok, but there are many places the uninitiated might get turned around. There's a nice dedicated pavilion and practice baskets. The lack of space leading to safety concerns and overly short holes hold this course back from getting a higher rating. It's really a bit sad, given the resources and time that was put into this course.
