Title: Monmouth, IL--Monmouth Park
Post by: CEValkyrie on September 28, 2008, 06:34:03 PM
Well, it was pretty dark when we played this 9 hole course. We played a round of glow. First time thru, shot a -5 in the dark using an avenger, buzz, & wizard. That will tell you how tough the course is. The land is very good. Lots of hills, trees, and rough. Most of which is not used. There are several very short putter shots of the 9 holes. 3 holes on the course are pretty cool. Another course with potential.

The description says the 9th hole has an island green. There was no water on that hole. It was a pretty good hole and would love to see the water.

From the Monmouth Daily Review Atlas (http://www.reviewatlas.com/archive/x1346896020/Lots-of-activities-offered-at-Monmouth-parks):

"Of all the holes, [Park Commissioner Dan] Nolan said he is proudest of the ninth. An "island green"  requires the golfer to make a shot land in the relatively small area between "water hazards," which in disc golf refers to driveways or roadways."

Thanks for that info Kurt. D. Nelson would have been out of bounds. With that OB it is a very good hole.
