The Tracks at McDonough

"A lot of poison ivy "

"Lots of poison ivy all over. "

"Great course for challenges tight lines"

"Great challenging layout. Stay in the fairways or pay. "

"Very wooded course with tight lines and will make you pay for bad shots. "

"This course is easy to hate but it provides challenges for players who want to develop their skill set. Difficult circles to hit, hills, and a whole lot of trees… The perfect way to test your drive and your patience. The course is kept up pretty well throughout the year and provides a fun and challenging course. "

"One of the best marked and best maintained courses that I have played. There are blue and yellow T pads for almost every basket. All the T pads are large level concrete rectangles. Every T pad, for both the long and short layouts, have hole maps, including where the next T pad is from the basket. Each basket has clearly marked arrows to the next T pad. I never got lost or even wandered a bit going from one basket to the next T pad. This is a destination course!"

"Tough and challenging, but fun. Really makes you work on precise line control, and landings."

"Outstanding facility. This has it all. Ample parking, three basket putting warm up area, great signage, fairways through woods clearly marked with logs, 18 holes. Best I have played so far."

"So nice. "

"Tight wooded course with a couple wider open lanes but no big field fairways to huck into. Be prepared to bring either your scramble or your sharp shooter game. Well maintained and quiet. "

"Really cool course with challenging shots and distances that make you rethink your disc choice. If you get off the fairway you’re in trouble. Great elevation changes make birdies tough to get. The train running by is really cool! "

"Great design, distinct signage, lots of benches and trash cans, really well maintained. Course is 97% wooded and is challenging without being disheartening. Really fun place, can’t wait to play in the summer once the foliage grows in!"

"Fantastic course! A little muddy after the rain but totally playable "

"In the woods, brooms on tee pads, good signage. Fun course"

"Some great lines to throw, good signage, love the skips off the pine needles"

"Drove from warner robins. We really enjoyed this layout and its very fair plus disc do not go missing. Thank you"

"Great layout. Wish there were a few less uphill holes"

"It was a great course overall . I drove 1 hour and really surprised how good it was nothing needs to be changed"

"Course is ready for prime time! Played the golds today Dec with 60 degree weather and it was absolutely perfect. Plenty of pines to make some nice skips off the needles. Love the layout."

"Great and challenging course! Worth checking out!"

"Great course signage is top notch! Tight fairways and technical areas!"

"I've only played here one time. Planning to return."

"Beautiful course. Tucked away in the woods off the main road. Very difficult! You must hit your lines. Fun playing the blue tees. Train is awesome an added effect. "

"Wooded course with well-defined fairways. Most folks will want to play the short tees as the longs can be a very humbling experience. Definitely worth the trip to this well-maintained course."

"Tight wooded course that rewards you for staying on the far way. Playing conservative goes a long way here. A well designed pro level course. That's not too far from the expressway. "

"Such an AWESOME course, love how it has both the long and short tees because from the longs The tracks is a BEAST and is such a challenge but the shorts brings the best out of you for lower level skills as well! The course also brings a great mix of holes as their are beautiful downhill par 4s and touchy long par 3s, and don’t forget the par 5 that plays along the infamous “TRACKS” such a good hole. I highly recommend this course, And the best way to describe it is Tenacious!!"

"We really enjoyed this course. It's well kept, not too muddy even after a heavy rainstorm and a good challenge from the gold tees. "

"This is a fun, challenging, well maintained course. Both layouts are fun. A bunch of practice baskets to get you warmed up. Negatives: both layouts rely to much on left to right fairways. The blue/short layout plays more difficult, relative to par, than the gold/long layout (one of my peeves in course design)."

"Love the improvements that mike and the Henry county disc golf crew continue to make on this beautiful course. Can’t wait to make it back down there for another round. "

"One of the best courses on the South side. It is a challenge but it is also pretty fair. It is very well kept and the new tee signs look great. Watch for the arrows pointing to the next tee box as you are walking up to the “greens” or you will miss them."

"Great course, only downside is not really any open area"

"New signage is a great addition! Very well maintained, very challenging"

"Lots of poison ivy now. "

"Great course! Just missing tee sign at 18. Maps would help on signs. "

"Tough course, even tougher when it getting dark!!! My favorite in the area though. "

"Cool course. Definitely have played a lot of courses with lower rating than 4.5 that are better tho. "

"As good a course as I’ve played. "

"Tight course. Mostly narrow runs. Nice elevation changes. "

"great course very wooded. it like lil mulberry but with a line. "

"Very challenging and technical course. Well kept. Would be 5 star if there were maps on placards."

"Hole 16 is amazing the rest are okay"

"Some grown up fair ways and trees have fallen blocking trees pads "

"Broken glass everywhere on 14-17"

"Challenging woods course. 2 concrete tee pads w/ brooms at every hole with distance on signs. No maps though. Overall good course. "

"Great day here. Beautiful coarse and one of my favorites"

"This is one of the most fun courses I have played. As a wooded course, this has the most generous fairways I have ever seen. This makes it so hardly any luck is involved with hitting lines and birdieing holes. It only punishes bad shots. Good amount of shot shaping and a course you can throw full power on. Very very fun course."

"Nice & tough course!"

"Just such a fun course. Thanks recommend the “Friendly” layout for intermediate players like me. Presents just a perfect balanced challenge. "

"Very tough and technical course. We’re just beginning, so it really made us think our shots. "

"Solid course, nice wood lines to throw through. Not too many tight gaps other than right off the teepad on hole 5"

"Fantastic course, Huge snake burrowed in the tree at 🐍 whole 14"

"Great technical course. Would greatly appreciate better signage at both tees and benches at the blue tees. Definitely a well maintained park!"

"Very long. Very challenging. Very good. Fair course with multiple holes to throw bombers on. Only downside is the lack of a hole map. You will 100% need to use UDisc for the layout. Worth the drive!"

"Good course may be hard for beginners."

"Very fun track. "

"Great track. Well lined fairways, good tee signage even showing pin positions on several holes. Great use of land available. Nice warmup area. Fair fairways and tough rough. Will be coming back at every opportunity!"

"Wow! I really loved the course. I would give it a 5 if it had hole maps. Easily one of my favorite courses now. "

"Fairly challenging woods course. Some holes I question if birdie is possible tgough"

"Good "

"Hands down best course in central Georgia. Completely wooded course with wide fairways demanding long and control shots. Well maintained with pinestraw fairways and defined fairways using downed trees. Excellent warm up area with multiple practice baskets and open space to throw. All throws are reasonable for advanced players and above from the longs expect hole 11. Even par is a great round, but doesn’t require luck. Should be on everyones bucket list "

"Great design. A must stop if travelling through. "

"Fantastic course. Lots of long tunnels requiring all sorts of shots. Very technical and a birdy is a huge reward for a well executed shot here."

"Needs map signs of the holes. They were so many long holes, I had no idea where the baskets were"

"This was a great course to play. Pads and course are very well maintained. I would be cautious though if it recently rained. "

"Lots to love and hate about this course, especially from the long (main) tees. Well laid out and easy to navigate. Front nine is some of the best design I’ve seen in a while: tough but fair with plenty of chances to use a wide variety of shots. The back nine is more difficult, with long, tight fairways and big penalties for even good shots. Sadly there’s almost never more than one route to the pin , which leads to a lack of creativity except when figuring out how to get back to the fairway."

"Fun but demanding course with alot of new work done like new tee signs and more to come "

"Tight fairways! Super well maintained. Awesome course. "

"Long Tees: Very rewarding layout with achievable lines. Rough varies from managable to downright re-tee worthy.. a couple almost out of place difficult long par 3s are balances out by a few must birdie stock shot short ones without much risk. This is the only place i think the course design falters. The par 4s, par 5, and holes 1 and 18 are fantastic! Next tee signs were good, but hole tee signs leave something to be desired. "

"Challenging course but in a good way. The blue tees are shorter but not necessarily easier if your release is inconsistent. Good variety of uphill and downhill holes. Surprising amount for this area. Good use of the terrain. A good forehand or control of RHBH anhyzer is important for many of the holes. As far as the hole maps, it would be nice to have them, but the fairways are super obvious. If you see this then you obviously have UDisc and have the maps. Very easy to navigate. Will be back!"

"Brooms on almost every hole. Alternative tee boxes. All boxes long and level. Cart friendly. Excellent mixture of long and short, left and right dog legs."

"If the reason your reading this is because you wonder if this is A-list must play type course then the answer is yes.. 5 Star 100%"

"Very challenging woods course. Lots of par 4s requiring a quality tee shot to set up an approach. Would be 5 stars if the signage had actual maps to help identify where to throw. "

"Very clean! Great amenities "

"Very difficult. Well layed out. Good signage. Wish I lived here. "

"This course is amazing. Congrats to the community and the people who take care of it. "

"Tough, but fair. Gotta hit lines and stay in fairway. But if you can scramble and putt, you'll be just fine. It can be frustrating if you're a little off, but definitely good if you want to work on accuracy."

"Spider webs galore, felt stuck using an my straightest flying disc the whole round. Fairways are just too narrow to try and be more technical, unless you want to be in the woods for every throw."

"Difficult from the long tees but is fair (except hole 11). Beware on hole 4 there’s a yellow jackets nest on the ground. If you push your drive too straight towards the tracks the nest is almost directly in line with the tee pad maybe 20ft from the OB flags. Put my bag right in the nest today and paid the price. Still a great challenging course with tons of beauty to explore. "

"Great layout with well-maintained fairways and greens. Challenging and fair throughout "

"can you say woods kiddo? at least it was easy to find most of them. "

"Nice course. Well maintained. "

"Very technical course. Don’t recommend for beginners. Nice layout with signs telling you where the next tee is. "

"Very difficult from the long tees, but also very well defined and with wide fairways in places. "

"I hit this on the way out of town and enjoyed everything about it. It’s a gem tucked away in the cut, well taken care of, unique layout, Open forest with wide-ish lines and approaches, hole distances we spot on and manageable, Along with doable up and downs if you find yourself in trouble. I am 100% hitting this on my trip back on Sunday"

"Replace the choo choo trains on every hole sign with more useful information."

"Tough but fair. Besides a couple of holes, this course really feels like what disc golf was originally intended to be!"

"This is a well wooded course Great narrow lanes, perfect for practicing precision."

"Be prepared for a course much harder than you expect it to be. If you're not used to disc golf in the woods, this one will eat you alive. All that said, it's a fantastic course, that will absolutely push you to learn new shots."

"Very tough course design "

"Great course they just cleaned it up real nice and put up new signs great work!"

"little overgrown "

"Very fun course. The rough is challenging but not so thick that you'll lose discs."

"Would love to see course maps instead of pictures of trains but it’s laid out well and kept decently clean. You can’t see all the baskets from the tees so be ready to walk up on a few to plan your throw if you aren’t familiar with the course. Will play again. "

"Love the design and upkeep, great distance and a great challenge for higher caliber players! A must play in the GA scene! "

"It’s a fun but tough course. It’s almost completely in the woods. It challenges you to hit your line or pay a price. It’s got some very long holes with wide enough fairways to where you think you can really rip it but I’d warn those that play it to play smart golf. Think two shots ahead. If it is your first time playing it and time permits walk the hole before throwing it. Position is KEY! "

"Soooooooo tough but a really nice course. "

"Very nice well kept course. Extremely technical and not for beginners"

"Hard but super pretty course! Will need to come back and try harder next time."

"Great mix of both backhand and turnover shots with some tight long fairways that will challenge any player. "

"Superb tees (with brooms!) and fairways lined with logs. All about driving accuracy and you’ll be fine. Directional arrow signs to next tee now on almost all holes. Nice views, two trains ran by during my round."

"Not for beginners! Very creative layout, sharp turns and tight, long tunnels. Definitely go for the challenge! Great course, just needs better signage. The holes are marked with distance, but no layout so first timers like me are lost. Elite course if signage is upgraded. Rattle them chains! "

"Great course layout. Fairway or die for sure."

"Very challenging course "

"One of the best courses around to challenge yourself. Very fun blue layout and super tough gold layout. "

"Wow one of the best courses in the state. Restrooms on hole 1, trash cans and benches throughout. A big boy course from longs that tests your ability to execute every shot and angle. So well designed."

"By far the hardest course I have ever played. Beautifulz extremely tight fairways. No exagerration: if you don't hit a line literally PERFECTLY, then you will not get par. Secluded, quiet area without many others out and no random walkers strolling through the fairway. "

"Great course, a lot of right shots"

"This is a great wooded course. Fairways are open but the woods will make scrambling tough. A variety of lines to challenge the forehand and backhand. The gap on 5 is very tight. So far my favorite course I have played. I wish it was closer."

"Long, wooded technical course with fair lines. Lots of par 4s that require a variety of shot shaping. Short and long pads on most holes. Great course and a must play if in the area. "

"I was able to get the front 9 Blue tees in before dark on our way home from Florida. What a great course! Having the brooms on the tee boxes was a nice touch. 👍 this is one I definitely want to come back and see the entire course. "

"Definitely a good course. Seems new and well maintained. All forest. Short and long tees, one basket per hole. Yellow baskets, but no flag a wee hard to see from far away. No map on the tee, so you have to base everything on udiscs map"

"Perfection!!!"

"Dang this course is awesome. Heavily wooded, tight lines, need every shot you can imagine! Used every disc in my bag, doesn’t happen often. Enjoy! Oh, and it’s nails..."

"Well maintained with an awesome variety of difficulty and shot lines. "

"Lots of right turns and low shots. Stay out of the trees or your going to post high scores. Hint: play 11 like a par 4 and 12 like a par 3 and you won't be disappointed."

"Well maintained but very difficult. Would not recommend for beginners as every fairway is relatively tight and wooded with few scramble options. Has a variety of shots but you will have to be intimate with your discs as even a slight mistake puts you off fairway into an unforgiving woods. "

"Nice open fairways."

"Fin course. Challenging but doable. Fun holes with some unique baskets. Punishes you for sloppy play."

"A course so good that it will be closed November 14 & 15 for a tournament. Bandit Run, Powered by Prodigy."

"1st time. Main course. Needed many different discs to get through the course. There's lots of forehand action needed or if you're a lefty you'll understand. Very challenging. Narrow tree-lined lanes will push your accuracy and ability to be technical. Moderately challenging terrain to walk. Nice park setting. Hole 18 finished near the parking. Good parking, trash cans, nice benches, next tee signs and obvious paths. Great job. Will be back to bring my score down. Thank you to the creators!!"

"Great mix left/right doglegs with varying distance. Expertly taken care of. "

"Fantastic course. Love the challenge. "

"So good, lots of “leftie” holes... Great condition"

"Reminds me of hornets nest in CLT, NC. But an Amateur version. Definitely a lot of woods and no open shots. You gotta know your discs and how to throw long wooded shots. "

"A fun, wooded course! Very technical. It tests all types of shots. Good course to work on hitting your lines. "

"Beautifully designed course. It plays very long and you'll get punished getting off the fairway, but it's very fair. The fairways are very clean and without those hidden "gotcha" trees. Short pad tee signs aren't in yet but other than that I'm very impressed. It's definitely worth the travel. "

"Course is great. I just wish the signs also showed the basket locations. "

"Very well laid out. Fairways are well defined and very clear. Two sets of tee pads on most holes. "

"Extremely difficult course, even from the amateur tees, but very fun! "

"I haven’t played this course in about a year, definitely has been seasoned and it was a lot more manageable. I highly recommend coming back out if you haven’t given it a chance in a while."

"Tightly wooded course with multiple 500ft+ holes. Rough is very punishing and often takes a lot to get out of. Quite a bit of elevation change as well. "

"Awesome course, st and narrow fairways with lots of dog leg 2nd drives. Concrete pads and great maps. "

"Tight and tough course, but very enjoyable. Well maintained and easily one of the cleanest places to throw!"

"Very difficult. Tight fairways with very punishing rough. "

"Tough wooded course with many technical shots and terrain changes"

"Very technical course all wooded pretty challenging for par threes with tight tunnels. Can get soggy after rain. The train next to the tracks is pretty unique and awesome"

"Long, technical course with mostly generous fairways that look like they’ve been freshly bulldozed - lots of debris. The rough isn’t terribly thick if you shank one, but you can find yourself in jail easily."

"Great design. Better tee signs are a must. "

"Great challenge "

"Way too wooded, all environment feels the same on every hole. "

"Great Layout. Still a little "green" from being a newer course. Technical course that makes to think about your shot choice. Bring water. Even in the shade, this is a HOT course."

"Needs some cleaning up but gobs of potential "

"https://youtu.be/KuCfRtbRONw I did a FPV walkthrough of the course"

"Nice and well maintained course!"

"Great upkeep, well marked course, huge variety of shots"

"Beautiful wooded caverns rather than tight tunnels. Rough gets wild pretty fast, so lots of medicine to be taken. Some bends have secret gaps to help you cut the corner, so keep an eye out!"

"The best front 15 in Atlanta. Finishing 3 holes should be rethought as they don’t meet the mark of the rest of the course. "

"This course has beat in very well over the last year. It is one of the most challenging courses I’ve played. Hitting the fairway is imperative. Beginners should steer clear."

"Great course. Tough but really nice. "

"Multitude of pads and pin positions. Can lack a little bit on creativity of shots, but great course to hone in your release timing. Be prepared for a hurting if you’re not in the fairway. Best of all, you’ll most likely see a train or two. 😍"

"The Henry county peeps take great care of a challenging course!"

"Tough course but well groomed fairways. Great intermediate/advanced technical course. "

"Great course! Very technical. Lots of shade so will be nice come those hot summer days!"

"Overall great course - super tight boundaries on almost every hole, so be ready for some technical shots. "

"Must-play!"

"I wish this course was open when I was growing up. 35 min from ATL. This course has potential to be one best around the area in my opinion. I love how the “fairways” are actually fairways with defined lines marked by logs on almost every hole. What an awesome touch. It really made it feel like a ball golf course in the woods. You better have a solid forehand. Only negative was #8. Hole needs to be widened or deepened down the left side. Basket is nearly impossible to access from the tee. "

"Really good technical course. Pretty tough one too. Parking lot is down a hill past the tracks for hole 1. No signs showing the layout of each hole but there are post where someone drew the path on. There are also a few holes with short tee pads but not all of them. "

"Course is awesome! Technical, but fair, very challenging, but fun. Loved the whole appearance. "

"Challenging. Technical. Fun. Beautiful"

"Challenging heavily woody course. Needs a little more breaking in. Lot of fun to play"

"Tight and long for a beginner like me but enjoyable. Natural debris on ground but well kept. Nice course. I can't wait to play it again after my game has improved. "

"Big. Tight. Long. Fun! Brand new. Still waiting on signage. Lots of scattered logs and branches still about. Hard pro caliber course. "

"Great place to play. Very little mud "

"Would be an easy 5 star if the tee signs had maps instead of pictures of trains. Long, difficult, and extremely wooded. One of my Top 5 in metro ATL."

"needs maps at the beginning of every hole other then that great course"

"I lost a Black Deputy with a Gold stamp on the front 9 somewhere. If you find it call two56 three68 three65two. Thanks!ReviewAll that's missing are benches and trash cans, but as much work as they put into this course, it's clear they'll be coming, and probably sooner than later. Par 4's and 5's already have a second teepad, it seems, with markers out where more are (most likely) coming soon. This place is already awesome, once it blossoms it will be every bit as good as steady Ed, maybe better!"

"New course. Great course. 5 stars when the signs get printed"

"Tight wooded course. Tough, but fair on almost every hole. Update: the people that work on this course clearly put in the work, but the recent changes are silly and take away from the course. Moving a pin 40’ left or right on 80% of the holes since the last time I went really made the course a whole lot less fun. If it’s not broken, don’t fix it."

"The new signs at this course have really enhanced what was already a top notch course. Put away your distance drivers and focus on keeping it in the fairways. "

"New directional signs (green arrows-white background, 6” by 6”) look to the trees after putting. Tee signs coming soon!"

"No directions to next holes yet. But great challenging course!"

"Love the course, though I often leave frustrated. If you are just slightly off on your lines, the Tracks will make par more than difficult. Birdies are few and in between from the long tees, as most holes are long and treacherous. The rough is a no no, if you get in it you’re looking at bogeys. The new short pads make life a little easier for newer players, but the course is still a challenge. If you want somewhere to practice hitting lines and angles, this is the place. Overall, a solid course."

"Technically challenging wooded course. Great fairway lines and a lot of trees off the fairway. Hard angles mean you need to make your shot count. Course is pretty new and maps on each tee box would be beneficial. "

"Very tight gaps and the rough is not very forgiving. Overall a really good course"

"A beautiful, amazing , and challenging course!! The long pad positions make for some really tough par 4’s. Once you think you have got the hang of the long positions, go back and play the shorts for a whole new course! Word of advice, stay in the fairways All of this while getting your nerves worked by the frequent passing trains. "

"Come a long way in a short time. Very technical and challenging"

"Long tight fairways (even from the short pads), but fairways are fair and mostly opened. Keep it in the middle is the name of the game here. New signs help a lot. Would like to see pads or markers for ladies/juniors."

"Needs to break in a bit but a great course."

"Help with navigation. No directional signs yet on the course. Look for string tied on basket to point you toward the next hole. Then see flags and some tree ribbons to help some. Note that you cross the sidewalk after 7, 11 & 12. When going from 10 to 11 walk toward the sidewalk but do not cross. Go right at the sidewalk & 11 is on your right. It is a small walk from 16 to 17. You will walk over the walking path gravel road to get to 17. It is next to the 2nd sidewalk that you will come to."

"This is a challenging course for sure. The fairways are generous, but if you end up in the woods on either side you will pay in extra strokes. Just having a big bomber arm will not help you, you need distance AND accuracy, and of the two accuracy is more important. For some teepads the gaps right off the tee are TIGHT. For others the fairway is nice and wide, but you need to keep it straight. If you want to shoot par or under you will need a variety of shots, backhands forehands and overhands. "
