With the baskets moved across the street to the front nine holes of the ball course, we now have North Country NH disc golf on actual fairways!

While this is only a temporary opportunity during construction, it's still VERY ENCOURAGING to simply SEE baskets on the managed side of the street, let alone PLAY on it.

Cons:
- $10, 9-hole, temporary course. Same rate if you have your own plastic.
- limited hours. Fri-Mon. Last start is 2:30pm and off by 5.
- A couple baskets are questionable (rusty, missing chains... yet they have plenty of inventory to swap?!) Signs of a temp course. All good.
- basket placement for #1, I think, is in a ditch between bunkers, in rough, and completely crooked. Could use some love.
- Tee placement for #9 is on top of tiny mound bunkers? (hello injuries...) Easily move 20 feet left; perfectly level.
- #1 tee marker pole completely obstructing the very first drive. Otherwise, very cool protected/mandatory design. Well chosen.
- other than tee #1- no shade, whatsoever. Anywhere. Also no place to rest/sit.
- overall, as a course, the layout feels tired.

Pros
- growing the sport.
- you get the impression people are finally acknowledging the fastest growing sport in America... If not for a fleeting moment, while construction continues.
- Loaner discs with your greens fee, if you need them.
- very friendly staff.
- Well managed rough and fairways
- definitely great views. That's a money maker.
- Some fairly new Innova baskets.
- layout provides ability to link holes for some creative/tricky/protected/designer shots.
- without considering the 9 hole design, as mentioned above, this place is ideal for practice or training.
- plenty of remaining fairways (in the front 9 of the "temp closed" ball course) to stretch out these 9 or plan additional holes.
