A Nice Long Course With Decent Variety

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Mar 21, 2021 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This course has a lot of long holes with a decent variety of layouts that can challenge you in different ways. Some are in the woods and are somewhat narrow, while others are out in the open and usually have a few trees and bushes as obstacles. The hills in this area are a big factor on some of the holes, because there are times when you have to throw uphill and there are also times when you have to throw downhill. There are several blind tee shots, a few doglegs, a couple mandos, and a basket that's sitting on top of a small boulder. Most holes have two tee pads: one that's farther away and more difficult (normally par 4 range, but occasionally is par 5 or par 3 range), and one that's closer to the basket and easier (always par 3 range). Also, each tee pad has helpful signs detailing the layout, distance, and par for that hole.

Cons:

There are a few holes that are kind of hard to find, the hardest of which being the very first hole, so some signage on how to navigate the course would be helpful. It's kind of awkward how you have to do a lot of walking to get to the first hole when there are a few others that are real close to the parking lot. It would've made a lot more sense to make one of the holes hole #1. Some of the holes outside the woods are too wide open and could use more obstacles like trees or bushes. The layout for the fourth hole's longer tee pad is kind of awkward because it's a really long V-shaped dogleg with a mando that forces you to throw your disc a long ways away from the basket before you can throw it up a steep, heavily wooded hill toward the basket. That makes it very difficult to get par on that hole, which is a par 5.

Other Thoughts:

Overall, this is a good course to play for players of all skill levels. The shorter tee pad locations are convenient for less experienced players (though some of them can be pretty tricky for most players), while the longer tee pad locations are convenient for more experienced players. Some holes could stand to be a little more challenging, but overall there's a decent amount of variety to this course, and it has it's fair share of challenging holes. Also, the quality of this course is really good.
