Pros:
Course description: course plays through the unused portions of greenspace between the sports fields. The layout is pretty much a big circle. The baskets are the nicest homemades I have ever seen, nice and sturdy, all welded metal, with chains that catch just like any other basket. The welding class did a nice job on these. By the baskets (usually within 40 ft or so) is a piece of concrete shaped like home plate but oriented in the direction of the next basket. The concrete also has the tee number on it.
The pros are few here but include:
-the nice homemades baskets
-Although the course is mostly flat and treeless there are 2 holes that use elevation and one that has a shaped shot from a tree. 3's basket is slightly uphill, and I shot from a raised area by the football field. I couldn't field the little piece of concrete, so I played from the most logical spot, which was the edge of the football field. Also, hole 4 plays over a ravine and also has a tree suggesting you to throw a right to left shot, even though you can throw right at the basket.
-The course has some length to it. There were no measured distances, but on 3 of the holes, I pulled out a driver and couldn't reach the pin (I throw a driver about 330'), 1 hole I could reach with a driver and on the rest of the holes I used a putter or a midrange and could reach them. So I would guess the course length was about 3100'
Cons:
The course had a bunch of cons, however.
-Tees were natural, too near the previous baskets, and somewhat hard to find.
-The landscape was boring. Almost all flat and almost no trees. The course was also extremely wet due to many of the holes being along the drainage lines for the sports fields. There was standing water near the basket for 3. Granted it has been a wet fall, but combine that with the drainage lines it made for some soggy golf.
-There is an area with multiple pins near each other so without tee signs or distances posted it was a bit tough to tell which basket to chuck at.
Other Thoughts:
Overall, this course serves its purpose as gym golf well, but for actual golfers, this should not be considered a good place to play, but rather a decent place to practice. The shame is that there are woods at the school but they weren't utilized at all. But it is a good course to get kids started in dg.
