  Pros: Great course with elevation changes and requires a variety of shots, 18 holes. I really like the back 9. In the future, I would love to see more baskets around the water! :) There are toilets, BBQ's, and water. Very green. Cons: No tee pads

  Pros: Can be challenging with elevation changed. Cons: Lots of walkers and dogs. Was very muddy when we played. No tee pads, and quite difficult to find. Eclipsed by Bald Hill

  Pros: It's a great 18, but as a standard 9 it is just OK. Layout seems to revolve around the big layout, if the 9 was the focus it could be a solid 4. Cons: The public on weekends can at times deem it unplayable.

  Pros: Good beginner course, has potential to be a 18 basket course. Cons: Natural tee pads need updating along with signage for alternate pads.

  Pros: Beginner friendly course with alternate 9 tees that keep the course challenging enough for players of all skill levels. Tournament layout makes use of the amazing elevation changes on offer, making for a much improved experience. Great park facilities near HQ. Cons: Limited parking when park gets busy. Natural tee pads are well worn, some with exposed tree roots.

  Pros: Great public course with full facilities. Holes are beginner-friendly but can still pose a challenge for the better players seeking to go under par. Cons: Others have noted the difficulties in locating tees for the newer holes and also the alternates. the map is available here: http://www.melbournediscgolf.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Ruffey-Lake-18-hole-Course.pdf

  Pros: Course suitable for beginners and experienced players. Course has elevation changes, which make it more fun. Cons: Map shows 6 baskets, actually there are 9 baskets and 18 teepads. The back 9 tee's are hard to find, you will need the map from their website to find them.

  Pros: Great course suitable for all abilities. BBQ and toilet facilities located near hole 1. You will get plenty of exercise walking up and down the hills on this course. You can also borrow discs from the local library. Cons: The alternate tee markers can be a little tricky to find (pegs in ground) so make sure you download a map if you plan to play the 9 or 18 hole course. The map at hole one only shows the original six tees.
