Beginner Love 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 23, 2013 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Intuitive navigation from hole to hole, no map needed. The holes aren't extremely long for a beginner, so getting par is achievable. Great use of the landscape, hills, and dips. You get to see how differently you need to throw the disc for the changes in elevation, but not so extreme that it isn't fun. Well maintained with grass cutting in the warmer weather.

Cons:

In the summer the weeds in the rough can be annoying for shots that miss the fairway. Deer poo can be plentiful. Thorn prickers can be hiding in the rough, so be careful when rummaging for a lost disc.

Other Thoughts:

I played this course when it was newly installed last year, and again this past week. I definitely prefer it now that there aren't any weeds grown up on the course. I have been playing for less than a year, so I don't have a big arm as far as distance goes. I really enjoy playing this course. I usually run through it twice to get in a full 18.
