Pros:
- Exeter is located in a small community park next to the lazily flowing Sugar River. Flat and mostly treeless, this over-sized lawn is home to a 6-hole memorial course. The course itself mostly consists of open, obstacle-less throws. Despite the easy layout, there is a decent mix of length here, with the potential for even longer safari holes.
- Water put to decent use. #4 is the stand out hole that puts both water AND a tree into play. A large tree sits between the basket and the tee, with the river behind the green waiting for someone to go long. The river flows to the right of #5's fairway, easily creating the greatest risk on the course.
- Small, round/hexagonal concrete tees. They're oddly shaped, and the omni-directional nature of the pads instantly made me think of safari golf.
- All the typical small town park amenities are present: picnic pavilian, grills, port-a-potties, etc.
Cons:
- Not much variety.
- Not much challenge.
- There's not really anything WRONG with this course, it simply is what it is.
Other Thoughts:
- Definitely someplace viable for beginners, safari rounds, glow golfers, or as a practice space. Stroller and family friendly.
- We played the course forwards and then backwards. Definitely some safari golf holes to be had as long as the park isn't crowded.
- As this course has only six holes, I rated it slightly lower than I would rate a similar-style course with 9 holes.
