Short, Fun Desert-like Park Course drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 3, 2022 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Built behind a school, this course makes good use of the small wooded area that is away from all other campus activities (barring the shot from near the soccer field on hole 1). They do a nice job using the space that is there and squeezing in 9 (albeit short) holes that offer a decent variety of shots. All the holes are roughly between 150-250 feet with lots of ace runs, but there is plenty of elevation change, tight windows created by trees, and a few guarded baskets. For a short 9 hole course it offers a fair amount of thought and challenge even for an experienced player - although you'll mostly be shooting for aces with putters and mid range discs. I was able to play 2 rounds in under an hour by myself with little difficulty navigating from hole to hole. This course is nothing special, but it's cool and fun. Worth a visit to hone your skills if you're in the area (I was), but pretty standard overall.

Cons:

No real tee pads, no real signage (other than a hole number on the tee stakes), no opportunities to throw a driver. The flaws and shortcomings are fairly obvious, but again, it's a small area behind a school, and it's way better than nothing.

Other Thoughts:

The baskets are great and the holes are well thought out. I don't think you can play during school hours, but I went on a nice Sunday afternoon and didn't see another human for the hour I was there. Hit the basket on a couple of drives but wasn't able to bag an ace...guess that's reason enough to come back!
