Long. ob. open. fun. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 13, 2019 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Very well maintained- good mow, benches, trash cans, tee signs, clean, good tee pads and baskets.Challenging and fair- long holes with clearly marked ob- paths mostly on the sides or just past baskets. No river ob. Trees force some lines but there are always multiple options. Easy to play- elevation change is subtle and used expertly. Very easy to walk. Easy to avoid people using the walking path which is the only other park amenity on the course. Parking is next to pavilion, practice basket, hole one and 18. Easy to navigate.

Cons:

Does not wrap at end of hole 9. - this is one you need to be ready for as it plays continuously back into the property and does not come back to the lot after hole 3 until hole 18. Not incredibly technical. - it really is very open, kind of golf course style. The ob and still young trees do help though. Not beginner friendly- with only one pad and basket per hole, this is definitely an intermediate to advanced course. Even playing w/o OB is sure to be a tough play for anyone without 350-400ft driving pretty accurately. But once you hit that point, man is it a fun challenge.

Other Thoughts:

This course is getting better and better with good grounds keeping and age of tree induced challenges. Tee pads are slippery when wet. I suggest playing to one side or the other during rain. Play by yourself in 2hrs or less. Located just outside of town, it is a nice reprieve from the busy city courses without having to drive too far.

Best in BG 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 5, 2013 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This is the best course that BG has to offer, plenty of distance with OBs to keep you honest. Beautiful park setting and the grass seems to be mowed quite frequently. A lot of new trees to tighten up the longer holes, great tee signs, benches and trash cans on every hole. It truly separates the good from the great in every division. #11 and 15 are legit par 4s that big arms can easily 3, and a lot of holes in the 370-450 range that you can really air it out on.

Cons:

Hole #6 is kind of a Tweener hole, not many 2s or 4s, just a straight wide open 540' hole. If you're a noob who can only throw 200'... You're not going to have a good time

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 25, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

White is a long course with lots of challenge due to the OBs. While there are NOT a lot of obstiles on this course you're forced to not only throw LONG but you must be accurate to keep your shot in bounds. More than half of the course is twoable if you can throw at or around 350 feet. To say there are only two or three birdies on this course is silly when you take in to account that Doc Rick (who can only throw about 350 on a GREAT toss) has shot a 45 there. This is a great course if you want to be challenged while throwing hard.

Cons:

No shade! It gets HOT!!!
