As you progress to the back 16 holes, you'll encounter a more challenging and technical experience. These holes feature an increased number of water hazards, an abundance of trees, and longer fairways where out-of-bounds rules come into play. Additionally, there's the occasional presence of pond and creek water hazards during heavy rain or snowmelt, making precision even more vital.

It's crucial to maintain a sense of community and respect the local housing, so refrain from attempting to retrieve discs that may find their way into nearby yards. As players, we take on the role of park stewards and must ensure the area remains pristine for everyone to enjoy. Please be mindful of this responsibility and utilize the provided trash cans or, even better, pack out any trash you bring in.
