Kyle's Corner Course sounds like it plays around Kyle's yard, but actually plays around Wayside Chapel Church southeast of Lansing, MI.
About 2/3 of the holes here play through an open field next to the church, with adequately wide grassy mowed fairways and taller but manageable grass off them. The remaining 1/3 of the course plays through a tightly wooded area behind the field. The best holes here are the couple that bring both of these areas into play on the same hole. My favorite hole was #11, a 360' fairway that has a very gentle reverse "S" shape and starts in the open but gets more wooded as it goes. A few tree trunks guard a green that also has a small wall in front of it. Another interesting hole is #15, which starts and ends in the woods and has the basket only about 50' from the tee pad. The catch is, two clearly marked mandos force players to throw out into the field and then work their way back in a huge loop. The listed hole distance is more like 315' and that felt correct.
The baskets are older looking, which was surprising for a new course. They must be hand-me-downs from another course. They still catch fine, and have blue flags on top with the hole number. For some reason hole 7, and only hole 7, has two baskets installed.
I can't really complain about the tees or signage. The tee pads are flat and level pieces of turf. The tee signs have all of the details you could ask for, including hole maps that are detailed enough to indicate other baskets that are in play (which I'll get to in a second

). It looked like the tee signs were brand new, and had not yet been installed for the last few holes. Each tee sign points towards the next hole, and there are arrows on the bottom of the baskets and extra navigational aids in most places needed. Other than a weird transition between holes 4 and 5 where you have to walk around the main church building, I had no trouble navigating.
