Frisbee Golf - Devils Glen Bettendorf Iowa

Devils Glen
 There are three disc courses in Bettendorf Iowa and the first one to be reviewed is my least favorite. This course is located in and around Devils Glen park. Unfortunately the course has only twelve holes, which is a little odd. What this course lacks in holes it makes up in a nice scenic view. The first hole starts behind the baseball diamond and continues to wind around through the park. There are a few holes that take you a little too close to the duck creek so make sure to keep your disc flying right or you will be wasting time in the water.

 Overall this is a nice, well kept disc course that keeps the players entertained with a mix of short straight holes and some holes that take you into the forest. Not too many difficult technical holes that are too difficult to play. Unfortunately there are only twelve holes, but if you are looking for a nice quick round of discing for intermediate players. Below is a course map for Devils Glen.

Frisbee/Disc Golf - Middle Park Bettendorf Iowa Disc Course

Middle Course Bettendorf Iowa (holes 1-9)

Check out my video that I put together for the Middle Course in Bettendorf Iowa....I would have done the entire course but it was very hot and I was running out of time. The first nine holes are out in the open for the most part. I really enjoy this course because there are three locations for the pins for almost every hole. Not every course has different places to put the pins...this makes Middle Course interesting and fun.



There is only one tricky part on the front nine....after hole six you need to walk across hole 2/4 to the other side of the street in order to find the tee for hole number 7. After that and depending on the pin placement hole 8 is potentially 1000ft....which is abnormally long for any hole. Lucky for me hole 8 has the shortest pin placement (still over 800ft) ...my day started a little rough, but then I could finally make some decent shorts.

All in all I would say this is an excellent course and next time it is summer you should check it out!
