2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 13, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Walking up to four, I didn't think the hole would be playable. The trees must have grown in. But as I stepped up to the tee, and not until I reached the tee, the window appeared. Right between these two massive trees, across a small stretch of marsh and between sections of shrubbery on the other side and the basket in the crosshairs. A very interesting and fun hole that I did not see coming. Other than that course has some nice aesthetics with a stretch of holes near a pond with a fountain.

Cons:

I don't see how one would ever be able to play 1 while school was in session. It might be the most ridiculous choice I have seen on a course. It's right there next to the library and on the path. The rest of the holes aren't much better, with a few playing parallel to the campus road and others playing through areas that seem like they should get heavy traffic. Throw in a day care center where a noob hyzer on 2 is sure to end up and this course is pretty much a weekend only play. It won't be very interesting on the weekend either but at least there won't be moving obstacles.

Better of the two Nash County beginner courses 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jun 14, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is very similar to the other beginner course, right down the road, Glover Park. This review will compare the two courses, so players can decide which one, or both, to play.

Here's where Nash is better than Glover:
- Elevation
- Variety
- A water carry (very short, but still something unique)

Cons:

Here's where Glover is better than Nash:
- Baskets (Nash's baskets are fine, but Glover's are really, really nice)
- Nash has ant hills all over the place that you have to look out for

Both courses are very short. Not a big challenge for intermediate to advanced players.

Other Thoughts:

Great for beginners, a good warm-up course for the better Rocky Mount courses, and it does have some decent elevation on a few holes. Don't go out of your way to play it, but if you're in the area or want to introduce someone to the game, this is a good one.
