Reviewed: Played on:Aug 20, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Best 9 hole course I've played. With only three water holes, the water can come into play with a over-thrown toss or just a bad shot. Lots and Lots of Ace Runs especially with Advanced Players. Great Course for beginners.

Cons:

Not even being a week old, I can understand that a new course takes time to fulfill it's potential. But this course needs some serious work. With some sort of plastic material for the tee-pads, it's easy to slip and bust your ass while completing a throw. While 8/9 of these holes are NOT over 300 feet, you really don't need to launch one (obviously). That being said, there needs to be concrete pads. The first hole is extremely hard to navigate, if you've never played this course. (Luckily, I was with the designer at the time.) For example, hole #2's tee-pad faces out in an open area and you can see a basket about 240 feet from you. You would think that you would throw towards that basket, but that is an entirely different hole. There is absolutely no way, anyone would ever know to throw towards any basket on any given hole. There needs to be some signs to let you know where your throwing to and where your going. I'm sure there are some OB areas (sidewalks, water, etc.) but again nothing is marked. I don't know whether some sidewalks come into play or not with hole #1 being 5 feet away from the basket in two different directions.

Other Thoughts:

I'm simply giving this a 2.5 (decent/typical) average because, this is a very well designed course. I think it has potential to be a 4 or 5 average with all the improvements. I would hope in any later time frame, that RMDG would expand this course to 18 holes.
