Safari Putt Putt practice 2+ years
Reviewed:
Played on:Nov 21, 2012
Played the course:2-4 times
Pros:
It's nice that this neighborhood has some baskets to practice on. This elementary school has five baskets which can be used ideally to introduce kids to the sport. There are maybe a couple of concrete tee pads, but if there's a course 'design' here, it's not clear. I am adding a layout map, so you can decide if you want to make something interesting enough out of it to want to stop by.
There are opportunities here to just make some safari golf shots, and to practice approaches and putting. The basket closest to the school building has a large tree, a fence line, and the building to work off of. The one farthest from the building actually has some trees nearby to 'complicate' the green a little. The other three are wide open.

Cons:
Definitely not worth going more than five minutes out of your way to play. I just stopped in because I play 'em all!
Other Thoughts:
Normally, I'll visit a course multiple times before writing a review, out of respect to those who design and install courses. Since this doesn't seem to have a 'design', I hope nobody minds if I don't stop in again...

Cons:
only one tee I saw
only 4 baskets
no signs/no actual course layout

Other Thoughts:
It's pretty much been made clear, this isn't actually a course. It's fine if you want to practice drives (like I did today) or putting or something, and there's nothing wrong with the baskets, but I'm not sure what the purpose of putting it in really was. It's not worth going to unless you just want somewhere convenient/open to practice.

Played the course:once
Pros:
Great for practice and strength and that is all. Great for your long drives.
Cons:
You gotta make your own course up and its way too open.
Other Thoughts:
I liked it because of the openness of the holes to practice my drives.

Baskets missing 2+ years
Reviewed:
Played on:Jun 7, 2005
Played the course:once
Pros:
There are a few baskets which could be used for putting practice - nothing else.
Cons:
Baskets missing.
Baskets damaged.
Course not defined - Couldn't find all the baskets.
Don't bother looking for this one.

Other Thoughts:
Maybe this was a viable 9 hole course at one point but not when I found it. I saw it listed near me and went to play it - boy was that a waste of gas & time. These baskets would be better served being pulled out of the ground and used as part of an actual course somewhere else.
