Other Thoughts:
Featherstone Memorial DGC plays in its namesake park along the northwestern short of North Twin Lake outside of Manson, IA. A fairly short course, it does stack up to over 3000' off the longs but under 2200' at the shorts. To me the shorts only made things shorter, there was rarely a differing shot from them. For what it is, a DGC next to a camping area, it is reasonable. Campers will enjoy along with other activities. Not a destination, by any means. A basic park course. The dual concrete tees seem nice and you could definitely bring a novice here to enjoy, but other than that, it's your basic course with the old DGA peel n stick (TM) signage. The extra tees seem just that, extra. A bagger course, a novice course, or a course to play while camping in the area. I probably won't play here again.
