A Wasted Opportunity for a decent course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 17, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

Brand new course with new discatcher baskets, which are some of the best baskets on the market.

Very easy to navigate, even has gravel paths to follow to get to the next tee pad. 2 pin positions for every hole which can add to the variety.

Several holes have some fun elevation change to add to the difficulty.

Cons:

Main objection is it's another wide open hyzer fest. All the holes were in the long positions, and there was only two holes I couldn't reach with a basic hyzer.

There are a lot of trees on the property, and only one hole that utilizes these trees. That hole is less the 150 ft long and is a stand still putter shot.

Another major con of this course is there is a great lost disc possibility. There's a deep ravine near many of the holes with thick chest high bushes all throughout the ravine, making any shot going near the ravine likely lost.

Some lesser cons include incorrect distances on the tee sign. Had to bring a range finder to get the correct distances. Also several of the holes had the tee pads pointed in the wrong direction. You're running sideways across the tee pad to throw your shot.

My final con would be the lengthy walk between some holes, primarily between holes 1 and 2, and then the walk back from hole 18. Hole 18 finishes in the middle of the course, and you have to walk a long distance to get back to the parking lot.

Other Thoughts:

This piece of property had a lot of potential, but was not used properly. I can't recommend this course for beginners due to the ravine and lost disc potential. I also can't recommend this course to seasoned players as there is very little variety in your shot selection.
