hey, cheryl, they said your name on the family man, what? 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 15, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

Aesthetic-- plays through a pine forest on the side lot of a Montessori school. walking trails intersect but didn't really seem like an issue.

Risk v reward-- risk comes in the form of the crazy rows of trees here. the use of the trees is done well.

Baskets-- nice discatchers on 8 of the 9 holes. a "tone pole" is still present on #6.

Teesigns-- nice with distance, layout and a little story about something or other related to the school.

Cons:

Variety- biggest con here. you are throwing down a 6-8' row of pines for 200-300 feet hoping to hell you don't hit a tree and fly off 50 feet. It goes on this way for 9 holes. #6 is about the only highlight and there wasn't even a basket...The walls were more of a nuisence than a challenge.

Blandness-- this course is eerily boring. we played this course last on a day when we played three other courses and were more than happy to be done.

Other Thoughts:

only play this course if you are already in mt pleasant. don't go out of your way to play it.
