Reviewed: Played on:Apr 1, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course has a good mix of open and wooded shots that can test your game.

As everyone on my card from the BG ams will tell you I love the uphill 125 ft hole and a few others where MAJOR terrain comes into play.

the Fence on hole 14 was a savior for many.

The open holes were well manicured(for wooded holes see cons)

Cons:

No benches which I like to have on any course even if it is a short one.

I thought that many of the fairways only allowed for a poke and pray line with no true "Fair"way that could be hit.

A lot of this course also required pure luck on whether you rolled away forever or would sit right next to the basket.

I felt like many of the danger zones such as the area to the right of 15 could use some sort of stairs to make disc retrieval less dangerous.

The 140 jump putt hole (#14) imo was a dumb hole and a filler that took away from most ofthe rest of the course.

The rough is extremely rough and there are many hanging limbs right in the middle of fairways that you can really see from the tee that will knock your disc down.

Other Thoughts:

While I enjoyed this course for the most part I felt that it was gimmicky in some places and at best deserved a 2.5. I believe that there is a lot of maintenance that needs to be done on the fairways in order to make this a fair course.

Lots of Gimmick holes 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 30, 2007 Played the course:never

Cons:

There are some pretty strange shots here. Extreme elevation changes, both up and down hill. One hole has no fairway. Two others basically play along the side of a cliff.

Other Thoughts:

It's not the worst course I've ever played, but not really a good game of golf either.
