Odd little course drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 30, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

I'm not sure if this is a pro, but there are 9 reachable holes. The interesting part is that you can either birdie or bogey almost any of them, depending on where your disc lands.
Lots of possibilities for alternate tees.
Closest course to downtown SB.
Nice variety of holes - uphill, downhill, flat.

Cons:

Very few trees. I only remember 1.
Very sandy - like playing on a beach.
Lots of rocks and lots of prickly bushes.
Tees are already in need of some help. I assume they have plans to address that.
Some holes pretty much require that you can land on the trail or at the base of the pin or you're going to bogey.

Other Thoughts:

This course is in its infancy, but with some TLC, and if the park will let them, it can possibly make it up to a Good rating.
Bring your own beverages, food, whatever - though there are nearby places to get stuff, but none in the park.
Wear boots, and gaiters are probably recommended.
