Damaged course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 14, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Different kind of terrain as it is also used for dirt bikes. Tonal targets make a nice loud sound when hit.

Cons:

Many targets are damaged or displaced. Navigation is almost impossible as the tees are hard to find and not always marked.

Fun Round, but the Last Several Holes are Tough to Navigate 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 22, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

- Good use of terrain.
- A couple really nice/fun metal tonal targets (i.e. Hole 8), where it makes a loud "gong" sound when you make your putt.

Cons:

- Difficult to find (would have driven right past the course, even with directions, had I not caught a brief glimpse of the tonal target for Hole 10)
- Many tonal targets are in rough shape (shot at or otherwise damaged)
- Course navigation becomes confusing after Hole 9 (no next tee signage)

Other Thoughts:

I thought it was a fun course. Not terribly challenging, apart from locating the next tees after Hole 9. :-( Finding the Hole 11 tee was very difficult, and I'm not sure I ever did find the correct tee locations for Holes 13 and 14 (I played some holes and threw at some targets, but it was merely a guess if i was playing them correctly). Worth a stop to play! But it would be a *lot* better if they gave you better "next tee" clues after Hole 9. As well as repaired/replaced the broken tonal targets.
