Good short, technical course drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 15, 2023 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Course has good baskets, is mapped on Udisc, has 10 Meter bricks around most baskets, has orange arrows on each basket indicating next tee pad and concrete (hole 1) and turf tee pads (all others). The course has lots of variety as far as shot shape. All holes are less than 300ft allowing you to play 18 holes relatively quickly. There are nice tee signs on each hole showing distance, par and a hole map. Large portions of the course are shaded making the course tolerable even in summertime Florida heat. There are 2 trash cans and 2 permanent benches (holes 2 and 6). There is a loaner box with DX plastic discs and a disc return box. The property is mowed weekly.

Cons:

Course is limited on Wednesday afternoons and Sunday afternoons as well as some of the holes during soccer season when soccer parking overflows onto the course (holes 1, 7 and 9). Recent additional parking closer to the soccer fields has made this less of a concern. Bring your own water. There are no public bathrooms.

Other Thoughts:

Would be a higher rating if the 3 additional holes (10-12) were playable other than just during tournament play.

Decent Church Course

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 25, 2022 Played the course:once

Pros:

One of the better church courses that I have played. It features natural tees marked by a board in the ground and most have tee signs. The course features plenty of trees to shape around and is set in a chill environment. The course is recreational in nature but is clearly the best 9 hole course in the greater Tallahassee area.

Cons:

The natural tees, rec distances, and the number of holes could be a deterrent for some but for a church rec course, this one is ok.

Other Thoughts:

The course is fairly new but more holes and improvements should be coming so there is room for a higher rating in the future.

!st update 12/27/22: New improvements include better turf tees and tee signage. Rating updated to 3.0 Good!

Nice 9 holes

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 8, 2021 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This is a short course with several technical shots. This is by no means meant to be a pro layout. We are trying to make a little easier course for the area to attract new players but also challenge the most experienced players. We are hoping to add some longer pads to make the holes a little more challenging in the future.

There are mandos on holes #1, #2. & #9 at this time.
Hole #7 is an island green. If you land on any of the asphalt it is OB.


All pads have new turf pads and tee signs.

Cons:

Hole length.
Bring some water. As of right now, we do not have any drinking water set up.

Other Thoughts:

Hoping everyone will enjoy the course. This is a work in progress. If you play the course please let me know what you think. [email protected]
Please use UDisc if you play the course.
