- Excellent variety of holes with elevation changes, shot shapes, basket positions, open holes (front nine) and wooded (back nine).
- Good tee signs. My friend had played before, but the navigation from hole-to-hole seemed intuitive.
- The back nine will challenge virtually all amature skill levels.
- Shorter par 4's give weaker arms a chance to compete - if you're accurate.

-A few tee pads could be improved (flatten, add concrete).
-More pointing arrows could help newbies.
-Lot's of briars and other similar "jails" in the woods. This will improve as the back 9 gets more broken in. For now, you'd better be accurate!
-Not a "bomber" course, if that's your thing.

I wrote this as a new-ish 51 year old player under 800 rated. I loved the challenge of the back nine which gives me a chance against big arms - if I'm accurate enough. That said, the back nine could be discouraging for new players - I shot +14 yesterday and Lord only knows how high I would have shot here last year.

Of the church/school courses I've played around here (Firecracker, Wildcat, Orchard Hill, Gospel), this one is significantly more difficult - with the back 9 being one of the toughest Carolina woods stretches anywhere in this area. It's a fantastic addition to Greenville area courses and should be on the short list for visiting players looking for a challenge.
