Other Thoughts:
We had just finished Winshape and were about to replay when we got directions for the Hawks Grove course. (There is a per-day fee to play. Bring a few dollars. It's worth it.) It wasn't that far out of the way so we headed up 27.
I threw my shoulder out on the Winshape course earlier, but I actually parred a few on this one without agitating it. I had an easier time because I didn't have to do a lot of distance shots. It was more of a technical course.
When we arived the owner was busy riding a ATV around and weedeating parts of the course and was friendly. Although the fairways had semihigh grass from being bushhogged, it added to the charm of the place. I felt like I was playing on my Dad's farm.
Since it is a farm, be prepared to see critters. The sheepdog was super friendly and there was a goat and a calf munching on some vines. Nothing bothersome except the King snake that blang mentioned in his review. I thought it was a innertube. By the way, snakes don't like being stepped on and mistaken for innertubes. There were some massive ant hills on one of the early tunnel fairways, which we found while crossing the creek. Maybe I mention the roughs so much because I was constantly in them (I am still learning), but they are exactly as you would expect on a farm. I really enjoyed playing here and think this is a good tournament course (lots of room.)
Of all of the roughing it that I did at Hawks, I came away from it with ten to fifteen off of my usual score at Winshape, zero bites, scrapes or poision ivy rashes, and a good time.

Pros:
This is a very nice course for being on a farmer's land. It has a lot of short very ace-able holes that makes for a fun experience. Very easy to navigate and there are some holes that are quite interesting that go back and forth over a stream.
Cons:
Maybe a little out of the way but very much worth the drive.
