Pros:
-lots of nice teepads.
-baskets are in good shape.
-elevation changes are funnish.
-water comes into play on a couple holes.
-a lot of mature trees, but not really ever wooded.
-a few ace runs depending on which tees played.
-big, nice park on a smaller, pretty lake.
Cons:
primary con is distance between holes and lack of signage to get you to the next hole. the course is spread out in a huge park with too many teepads and only one per hole marked. i would have played a more challenging version of the course if the pads at a minimum had a color painted on them to indicate well, anything. make some scorecards!!!
Other Thoughts:
i really dont like courses like this one. i love a good, challenging exhausting course, but being exhausted because the course is laid out poorly (even after taking a picture of the course map) and having to look for holes is crap. even if marked well, this is little more than an ok course.
there is very little hole diversity or creativity of design. but is is a decent and welcome change from the nearby river course that is crazy tight all day. (the river course is a far superior design, and more fun) if you are in norfolk for whatever reason and it is kind of a cool town, you may like this course, but you also may find it to be as cliche and boring as i do.
